Jennifer sat back in her seat as beads of sweat formed on her head. She sat there trying to make eye contact with her mother Laura.
"What's going on my dear? Are you okay?" Mr Norway asked she shook her head vehemently.
"Yes I'm fine sir, I was just a little bit pressed. But I'm fine now, I already made use of the restroom." Jennifer said, bringing the attention of everyone to her. Laura looked and she could sense something was wrong with her. She decided to ask her, Laura pulled her close and whispered into her ears.
"What's wrong darling?" Laura asked.
"Mom there's trouble, on my way to the restroom now. I overheard Mr. Norway asking his assistant to search our house, he didn't believe I was the one he was with. If he finds out it's Hazel. Mom, I'm afraid he will choose her instead." Jennifer answered and Laura frowned. She quickly sat up with her fist clenched together.
She can't let this happen, she will have to do something fast about it. She quickly stood up and made her way out of the dining hall.
"Please excuse me, Mr. Norway, I need to use the restroom," Laura said quickly. She made her way to the restroom, looking around like a thief. Making sure no one saw her come in here or even followed her. She took out her phone from her purse and called someone.
"Hey listen to me carefully, I need you to do something for me. I want you to go to my house and kidnap Hazel and take her to the warehouse, I will meet with you right there." She said and the other person on the phone said something to her.
"Over my dead body will I let you have Mr Norway." She said with a wicked grin, she then made her way out of the restroom.

Hazel felt like passing out, she had been working since morning without rest. She came out of the bathroom and put on one of her pajamas. She then made her way to the kitchen to get some food, after all. Laura said she could have all the food she wanted.
"I'm just going to use this opportunity and take some food to my room before she changes her mind. Hazel paused as she heard a knock on the door, she wanted to go to the kitchen anyway. The maids can take care of that.
But no one answered the door, what if it's Laura and Jennifer? The thought alone sends shivers down her spine as she quickly makes her way to the door. She opened the door and found a masked man at the door.
"You must be Hazel," the man said, pointing a gun at her. Hazel's eyes widened with shock as she nodded her head in fear. The man grabbed her and pulled her away, he covered her mouth with his hand so she wouldn't make any noise.
Hazel doesn't dare to struggle with him, he's holding a gun and might decide to shoot her with it. The best she can do is to comply with whatever it is he says.
The man placed Hazel in the passenger seat in the back. And to her utmost shock, another man is waiting in the car also with a gun. She began to weep silently, not daring to make any noise as the car drove off.
Three minutes later, Dennis arrived with some group of men just the way Alexander had instructed him. They entered the Lakewood mansion and went to the main house. They knocked but there was no one to answer. Dennis was forced to open the door himself.
"Search the entire house and bring any woman you see here," Dennis ordered.
"Yes sir!" They all said in unison and got to work.

Hazel sniffed as much fresh air as her nose could find. She stood in the center of the airport as she watched in amazement at how noisy and organized everything was at the same time. She smiled as she waited for her bags to be brought to her.
She's back in City A with a new Identity, vibrant and a killer body shape. She posed and emitted a dark aura ready to face off every challenge hurled at her. “Oh! Not to forget she has two kids.
"Mummy! Mummy!! Mummy!!!" Alexander and Zara made their way to Hazel hugging her.
"Here Mummy, we got you something to eat," Alexander said and stretched the cup over to her.
"Mummy carry me," Zara requested giving her mother the puppy sorry face she knows she can't resist.
"Stop doing that Zara, can't you see we are all tired? Mummy is tired. Besides, we will be getting to the car soon. Why can't you just walk?" Alexander scolded Zara as she scoffed. Zara pouted her mouth and looked at her mother as she tugged her gown.
"Now will you two stop fighting, as for you Zara? I will just carry you until your aunt comes, okay?" Hazel asked her and she nodded happily. She then proceeded to carry her, and Zara giggled excitedly.
"Hey, Alexander!" Zara called her brother innocently and she looked up. She then stuck her tongue out at him.
"Mom, in the future we won't have baby girls. I'm tired of her always stepping on my nerves." Alexander said and Zara shook her head in amusement. Who would have thought she would end up with two four-year-old children?
"Ishhhh!!! These two are something else, I thought I lost them or something. Didn't we agree to leave the ice cream shop together?" Savanna asked, pointing her hands to the children trying to catch her breath.
"Well, Aunt Savanna. You were busy blushing while talking to the handsome man. So Zara and I decided to leave, you needed space right?" Alexander said and Hazel burst into laughter. While Savanna's eyes widened with shock, she really couldn't believe how smart he was. His smartness drives her crazy.
"So who is the guy..." Hazel was beginning to say.
"Don't you dare, gosh! You all are driving me crazy." Savanna said and walked away dragging her feet dramatically. While Hazel won't stop laughing at her best friend.
Hazel and the kids walked to the car that will be taking them to their new house. She already helped the kids settle into the car while the driver helped arrange their luggage. Hazel was about to go in as well when she noticed an uproar, her attention was caught and she paused.
"OMG! Isn't that Mr. Alexander Norway?"
"You mean the richest man in the country?"
"He isn't just the richest man, he's the most eligible bachelor as well."
"From what I gathered, he's already engaged to someone."
"Guys!!! There he is!" One of the ladies screamed and everyone brought out their phone and began taking pictures and videos of him.
"Mr Norway, we love you so much! I love you, you are my everyday crush."
"Mr Norway, you are so handsome. You are the most handsome man I have ever seen."
"Mr Norway, I've been dying to meet you. Please, I need an autograph!"
"All I want is a picture!" Another girl screamed excitedly and the entire place became noisy with clicks and flashlights everywhere. Hazel wondered who they were talking about, she was so curious that she couldn't get into the car.
"Is he the president or what?" She wondered, even Savanna was forced to alight from the car. Hazel stretched her neck trying to catch a glimpse of the man everyone was going crazy about.
She couldn't see anything because the girls were all over him. But she was able to see his hands, the moment her eyes caught sight of his arm. Her eyes widened with shock.
"My necklace!" Hazel whispered.
