Chapter 67: A Marriage Like a Joke

Hazel Hawthorne never expected that her meeting with the media at the coffee shop would cause so much trouble for her at work.

When Hazel dragged her exhausted body home, she washed up, collapsed onto her bed, and fell straight to sleep. Meanwhile, her work group chat had already exploded. Sharon Winters had sent her several messages and even made countless calls, but none of it was enough to wake Hazel up.

When Hazel woke up the next day and saw her phone nearly freezing from all the notifications, she was instantly wide awake.

She opened her work group chat and saw her colleagues were all discussing the fact that she was Aiden Xavier’s wife. Both Sharon Winters and Nathan Miller had also sent her private messages.

Hazel replied to Sharon first before getting back to Nathan. "Yes, Aiden Xavier is indeed my husband. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you before. I wasn’t intentionally trying to hide it."

Nathan replied almost immediately, but Hazel didn’t have time to deal with him.

Going to the office today was bound to be a bloodbath. How could her well-hidden identity be exposed so suddenly? The media contacts who knew Hazel were all aware of her habits; for any interview, they would blur her face as much as possible.

But in these photos, her face was clearly and unmistakably exposed for all to see.

This was most likely Raina Lowell’s doing again.

Hazel gritted her teeth at the thought of Raina. That woman was dead set against her, hell-bent on causing trouble. Even with Aiden by Raina’s side every day, she still came after her. Simply giving in wouldn’t make Raina back off.

Although Hazel had realized this long ago, Raina’s attacks always caught her off guard.

No matter what happened at the company, Hazel still had to go to work. Her ability to handle pressure wasn’t as fragile as Raina’s. So what if everyone found out about her relationship with Aiden Xavier?
