Chapter 233 

Hazel was hobling a bunchbox, about to call out to Lily, when she suddenly saw her walking out with Terence 

Herexpression immediately darkened, and she mished forward, pulling Lilybehind and angully pinching her arm. 

“ow, Mom!” Lily winced in pain. 

Terence instinctively took a step forward but quickly stepped himself. 

“I brought you lunch Yourshould be off work by now. Let’s go eat over there,” Hazel said. 

she assumed the two were about to have a meal together, but she wasn’t about to let them have a moment alone. 

Lily rubbed her arm where Hazel had pached her, frowning. “I don’t need lunch from you, 

“It’s cold out there. The company has a cateteria on the third floor. You can eat upstairs.” Terence suggested Indly. 

The bench Hazel had pointed to was by the street. In this weather, it would he far too cold to eat their. 

Lily quickly realized that having a meal with Terence was no longer an option. She gave him an apologetic nud. “Terence, you should hurry and find somewhere to eat. We can talk about the design plans another day, I… hey!” 

Before she could finish, Hazel had already yanked her inside the Lapier building. 

As they walked, Hazel scolded her quietly. “What do you mean ‘another day‘? You still want to meet with him alone? Your husband is Xavier 

It was lunchtime, and many employees were heading out of the building. 

Lily ignored her words, signaling for her to stop talking. Thankfully, Hazel held back, but as soon as they sat in a comer of the third–floor cafeteria, she started 

“How long has it been since you had a real conversation with Xaver? Do you think it’s appropriate to talk to other men in public like that?” 

Lily took the lunch Hazel had brought her. It was a well–balanced meal with neat and vegetables, clearly bought from somewhere. 

Xander ordered all the design companies not to hire me. It was Terence who helped me. Who do you think 1 should be showing gratitude to?” she replied, focusing on her meal and clearly not interested in continuing the conversation. 

She had hoped Hazel would understand her priorities, but she soon realized her mist alue, Hazel didn’t care about the situation. She only cared about the people in it. 

At that moment, Hazel clearly thought Xavier was the more important one. 

“Xavier just doesn’t want you to work. It’s for your own good. You’re ungrateful. Who else can you blame?” Hazel retorted. 

Lily suddenly found at hard to swallow the food in her mouth. She took a deep breaths, stared at the food in her bowl, and didn’t take another bite. 

“Are you choking?” Hazel asked, twisting open a yogurt bottle and offering it to her. “You’re grown now. You should low better what’s good for you.” “Have you eaten?” L 

Lily interrupted. 

Hazel shook her head “Not yet. I’ll find a place to eat after you’re done.
