Hazel blushed like a girl who fell in love, which reminded Nora of the time when she fell for Oscar, and now Hazel was just like herself.
A man like Oca would always be spotlighted even if he just stood there. With his handsome figure and refined speech, it was hard for a girl to not be sweet on him.
But he looked exactly like Oscar—the man she deeply loved!
Oscar…Oca…
Even their names were similar. How could it be possible they were not the same person!
Nora was lost in her thought holding a cup. She felt endless sadness. Her heart was filled with pain.
"I'm not joking. Mr. Moore is the first man you have taken home. Looks like you care about Mr. Moore a lot. Mr. Moore is so handsome and outstanding. Hazel, don't cry when Mr. Moore is got by another girl."
Alan turned to Nora and said, "Am I right, Nora?"
"Yes?" Nora had let her mind wander and failed to catch up with Alan.
"What's going on?" Alan found Nora quite odd today.
Nora was always charming and gorgeous, but she was being gloomy today as she didn't talk much and seemed absent-minded.
"I heard you talking about Hazel." Nora sipped water trying to comfort herself.
"Hazel and Oca are well matched, aren't they?" Alan held her finger in the palm of his hand.
"Sure, they are. But how they feel outweigh how they look." Nora added.
"Hazel, you like him, so be with him," Alan frankly voiced, "I'm not teasing, Hazel. I hope you can find someone who loves you just like Nora and I."
"Are you doing PDA before me?" asked Hazel.
"It's just what a couple do," Alan smiled at Nora with affection in his eyes.
"Can't believe how Nora stands people like you," Hazel complained, "it's really kind of her to bear you, isn't it?"
"Alan is always nice to me," Nora explained this only because they had reached an agreement before.
They had agreed to pretend like a sweet couple in public so as to not lose face.
Alan was glad to hear Nora's words raising an eyebrow.
Hazel didn't insist and turned to her family, "Grandpa, mom, dad, actually I have something to tell you."
"Go ahead," said Patriarch Way.
"In fact, you don't need to concern about marry me to some rich man. I've already been in love, " Hazel admitted bravely.
You should understand that since you are a Way, you are not supposed to marry an ordinary man. A rich one may not give the love you want, but he can make your life comfortable and easy. That is what happiness should be.
Living a poor life will destroy your love anyway. The daughter of Stardust Group in country H married an ordinary man, didn't you see what happened at last? Not just divorce, an ugly end.
Hazel, isn't it good if your marriages benefit both your family and yourself? You know you are not those girls who overcome a lot since they are young. You are always the princess of Way. You should never touch the dirt and dust of life."
Hazel began to think what grandpa said was somewhat reasonable.
"I can say Oca is an extraordinary man," Palmer said.
"You still need your family to test this man. If he is that good, we will bless you." Patriarch Way clapped her hand back lightly, "Your grandpa is not that kind of fogy."
"Indeed, his not an ordinary person. He is the son of the president of G.S. Group in M Country. But I didn't know that when I met him. I just love him."
"I can totally understand you, Hazel," Alan added, "I didn't actually care about Nora's identity. I just love her."
Hazel was happy to hear her brother finally said something useful.
Nora put down the cup, "Sorry, I'm going upstairs to rest."
"Wait a minute, Nora, we need to talk with you," Palmer and his wife stopped her.
Nora paused and responded calmly, "I'm listening."
