When the Contract Marriage Ended, He Stayed

Chapter 83: Here Specifically to Piss Off Raina Lowell

"I came to find you, naturally, to chat about the interesting things that happened to me in Freyburg. I just couldn’t find anyone to share them with. Then I remembered, didn’t you once tell Aiden Xavier that you and I got along really well? So, I came straight here to chat with you. And as it happens, I also think we get along quite well."

"I’m not interested in your affairs. This is my home, and you are not welcome here. Get out. Right now." Raina Lowell pointed at the front door.

But Hazel Hawthorne didn’t move a muscle, watching Raina Lowell with an amused look. "I think you’re very interested in my affairs. Didn’t you even send people to Freyburg to kidnap me? I’m just very curious, what was your goal in doing that? Were you trying to test if Aiden Xavier would come to Freyburg specially for me?"

"What did you say!?" Raina Lowell’s heart skipped a beat. ’How could Hazel know? Could it be...’

Hazel Hawthorne caught the fleeting expression on Raina Lowell’s face. She crossed her arms, looking perfectly at ease with no intention of leaving. "Raina Lowell, Aiden came to Freyburg. You must be furious, right? I heard you even begged Aiden Xavier not to leave last night."

"That’s impossible!" Raina Lowell denied it without a second thought.

Hazel Hawthorne didn’t believe her for a second. She naturally trusted what Aiden Xavier had told her. "Oh, you didn’t? Then why would Aiden say you were begging him not to go? But in the end, he was still worried about me and rushed to Freyburg anyway."

Every word was a deep jab at Raina Lowell. Her clenched fists and gritted teeth expressed her dissatisfaction and disgust for Hazel Hawthorne. "What are you trying to do by saying all this? Drive a wedge between us? Let me tell you, Aiden went to find you not because he was worried, but only because you’re his wife."

"Is that so?" Hazel Hawthorne didn’t buy it. She stood up and walked over to Raina Lowell, a smile on her face as she tucked a stray strand of hair behind Raina’s ear. She whispered with a grin, "But I’m only Aiden Xavier’s fake wife. Why would he worry about me? Unless..."

Raina Lowell shoved Hazel Hawthorne away and demanded, "Unless what?"

"Unless he’s fallen for me?" Hazel Hawthorne laughed.

Her smile was too dazzling. Raina Lowell couldn’t stand it; she even had the urge to destroy that face. She glared viciously at Hazel Hawthorne. "Aiden will never like you. Don’t flatter yourself. Someone like you doesn’t deserve Aiden at all."
