Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 333

With Hannah by my side, I eagerly strode into the Dawson's household.

Unexpectedly, both Farley and Hazel were home. Upon my entrance with Hannah trailing behind, Farley's face went stormy. His sly eyes boring into Hannah for a beat, then turn towards me. “What are you doing here?" he asked, rather rudely.

I couldn't help but smirk internally. It seemed he still held on to the grudge from the time Hannah had given him a swift kick.

Ignoring his gaze, I walked towards the plush couch and took a seat.

Although Hazel remained silent, her expression was far more guarded, looking at me with unwavering scrutiny, as if she was on edge for whatever I may say.

I grinned, deciding I better be the one to break the ice. "So, Hazel, I haven't seen you in a while. What have you been up to?"

Hazel looked at me, a slight annoyance in her voice, "State your business, no need for small talk."

Feigning meekness, I let out a casual remark. "I'm just wondering... Did you get any news about Evan? Did you guys stop searching for him? There seems to be no news since the last update...”

I asked with a seemingly genuine interest, looking directly into Hazel's eyes that she had to look away.

Mentioning Evan caused her to grimace slightly, "Mind your own business, it's not your place to interfere!"

"But Hazel!" Speaking with an unnerving sweetness, I retorted, "No matter what, I am a legitimate member of the Dawson family after all. When something happens to our family, of course I should be involved! Before, I didn't have the energy to do so but now things have taken a turn for the better... so why shouldn't I be concerned?”

"Focus on your own health first. You can ask whatever you want, but don't stick your nose into things that are not your business!" Hazel retorted, her eyes rolling in annoyance.

I continued to speak, "In addition, about Evan's situation, remember how frantic you two were when you stormed into my house demanding to see him? Now that I have some news, I figured I should update you sooner rather than later!”

I emphasized their grandson's name, causing Farley and Hazel to spring into surprise, their faces losing composure.

I added, "Don't tell me you've already been informed…”

"What... What news?" she asked me, her face filled with disdain. "What have you heard?"

Judging from the way she reacted, they certainly hadn't heard the news.

A silent cheer erupted in my heart. Let me do the honors then!
