Chapter 27: I Want To Apologize
Kyla’s eyes were red. She had a pitiful look on her face and said, “Hazel, I really want to apologize to you this time sincerely…”
“So, if an apology works, we don’t need the police?” Summer sneered and interrupted her.
Kyla bit her lip hard.
“You’re pretending to be mistreated and pitiful, do you want people to think that we are victimizing you?” Ariel said without mercy, “I guess now you are afraid that Hazel will sue you. You didn’t apologize before because you thought you were wrong!”
“Don’t go too far…” Derek couldn’t help but change his facial expression.
“Derek, don’t act like this. I am the one who is wrong. No matter how they treat me, it is all my fault. I deserve the punishment.” Kyla bit her lip again.
Hazel couldn’t help but frown. She said coldly, “Kyla, you decide to apologize or not but to forgive or not is my decision. I have two questions to ask you.”
A stunned look appeared on Ivan’s face. His impression of Hazel was that she was not an aggressive person. What on Earth did Kyla actually do that Hazel may not forgive?
He suddenly regretted bringing Hazel here, he should have heard both sides of the story to find out the truth. He shouldn’t have rushed to be a mediator.
He whispered to Ariel sitting next to him, “What on Earth is going on?” Ariel whispered in his ear about what had happened.
“What would you like to know?” Kyla looked at her.
“Why do you keep telling lies about me?” Hazel asked coldly.
“Because… I am jealous of you!” Kyla seemed to be willing to risk everything. She clenched her teeth.
“Although Derek is with me, I know that you are the one in his heart. Even when he is making love to me, he is calling your name…”
The facial expressions of everyone in the room became very ugly in an instant.
Ivan looked at Derek with anger. Seeing Derek looking at Kyla and the look of embarrassment, it was clear that it was true.
Ivan really regretted agreeing to this confrontation now.
“Enough!” Hazel interrupted with disgust in her voice. If she had known that was going to be the answer, she would never have asked.
Derek actually fantasized about her sexually? Hazel wanted to knock him out, just at the thought of it!
She took a deep breath and asked her second question, “What are you willing to do to make amends?”
“I will post a message on the forum to clarify the situation and apologize to you. I promise I will change. I will never do anything like this in the future,” Kyla’s eyes were redder. “I will also break up with Derek. I will let him go…”
“Stop!” Hazel stopped her and said with disgust. “You and Derek have nothing to do with me, don’t involve me in.”
“Then you will forgive me?” Kyla asked.
“Just apologize?” Summer sneered. “What about the mental damage this has caused Hazel?”
“Yes! She should be compensated!” Ariel repeated what Summer said.
“Hazel, my family does not have a lot of money. My grandfather has been ill for a long time, and my father has recently become ill. I have two younger brothers, and my mother cannot make money…”
“Now, are you going to use the excuse of poverty? When you made a choice to do something
wicked, why didn’t you think about the consequences then?” Summer said without mercy.
“How much do you want?” Derek looked at Hazel, “Give an amount, I will pay it.”
Hazel felt even more disgusted. She was short of money, but if it was Derek’s, she would not take it.
“Kyla, I can forgive you this time. If this was to happen again, I could never forgive you, even if you had your entire family begging me!” Hazel said.
“I promise.” Kyla apologized again, and her attitude was extremely humble. She picked up the glass in front of her. “I did something wrong in the past. Let’s have a drink and put it behind us, please?”
Kyla drank her glass of wine.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Fearing that Kyla would try to hug her, Hazel reluctantly picked up the glass in front of her.
“Wait!” Summer ran toward Hazel, grabbed her glass, and poured the wine directly on the floor. She gave Kyla a suspicious look. “This glass was poured before we came. Who knows if someone added something to it or not?”
Ariel picked up the wine from the table and helped Hazel to pour a glass. “Hazel, you can drink a little bit. You don’t have to show your respect to these people.”
They were unkind, but Kyla’s facial expression remained unchanged as if she did not hear it.
Hazel picked up her drink, took a sip, and looked at Kyla.
Kyla’s eyes suddenly brightened, and Summer saw it very clearly. Her heart suddenly felt a little unsettled.
“Hazel, are you feeling okay?” she asked worriedly.
“Not really,” Hazel said, stunned. Summer frowned, did she drink too much, or were they right to be distrustful?
The waiter brought the food in and started to serve the dishes, the intense atmosphere became more relaxed.
The meeting was planned by Ivan, and he was paying for it, so the three naturally refused to waste this big meal.
What’s more, after facing Kyla and what she had to say, they have no reason to leave. If anyone was Kyla that should leave.
After she had been eating for a while, Hazel suddenly felt extremely hot with no explanation. The air conditioning in the private room is on.
Was she drunk so soon? Hazel touched her hot cheek.
Hazel got up to go to the bathroom. She planned to splash some water on her face in the bathroom.
“I am going to the bathroom,” Hazel said.
“I will go with you,” Summer commented.
“It’s okay; I’ll be back soon.” Hazel smiled at her.
She walked down the hallway with her hand to her forehead. The heat was getting stronger and stronger. Hazel was contemplating tearing her clothes off.
Suddenly, she banged into a man. Hazel looked up, and in front of it was Joshua, who looked worried about her.
She should have pushed him away because she was still angry with him. But Hazel didn’t, all she knew was that he smelt good, and his chest seemed to be cold and comfortable.
Hazel, happy, got close to him and whispered, “Joshua, big bastard…” Her voice sounded like she was a spoiled girl.
Joshua’s eyes sank, and Hazel’s realized there was something wrong with the situation.
“Hazel, hey. Are you feeling uncomfortable?” he asked.
“Hot…” Hazel clung to his body like an octopus. “I am hot…”
Joshua’s eyes flashed with anger. Somebody dared to drug Hazel!
“Hey, buddy, let go of her, that woman is ours!”
Suddenly, an impolite voice came from behind.
Joshua turned around and saw two men stop in front of him. His eyes suddenly became dark.
Within a moment, the two men were lying on the ground screaming with their faces swollen.
