Chapter 014 The Charming Little Goblin

After Brook finished dealing with the matter, he returned to the bar, but Hailey was no longer there. He carefully looked around and saw that the fiery red figure was jumping on the stage. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

And Hailey, who had slipped into the dance floor, became the focus and center of attention. The men surrounded her, cheering and whistling crazily! “Oh my goodness. It had been many years since Brook had seen Hailey go crazy like this. Under the dynamic music and hallucinatory lights, Hailey was dressed in a red dress. Her sexy body swayed on the dance floor, and her curvaceous figure could not be concealed. There was a man at the side who was drinking, and he had admired Hailey for a long time. He handed his glass to the person beside him and slipped into the dance floor. As he danced with Hailey intimately with his body on hers, his hand slowly slid down from her waist to her butt.

“Damn!” Brook saw that Hailey was about to be taken advantage of. Of course, he could not bear to let that happen. Just as he stepped onto the dance floor, he heard a cry of surprise. Hailey moved faster than Brook. She grabbed the man’s wrist and turned over. She threw the man over her shoulder and raised her hand to slap him. “How dare you touch my butt? Who do you think you are!”

Aside from the loud music, the surroundings were completely silent. They were dumbstruck as they looked at this beautiful and fierce woman. She was actually a great fighter! Drunk, Hailey wanted to kick again, but she was hugged by Brook and carried

off the dance floor. He put her down on the bar stool and poked her in the head. “Are you here to cause trouble?” “Brook.” Hailey was in a daze. “did I look charming just now?”

“Absolutely! I am so fascinated! Didn’t you see the eyes of those men looking at

you like wolves? They want to swallow you whole!” “Then why doesn’t Owen like me?”

After drinking, Hailey became defenseless. Her always dignified expression became extremely lonely and sad at this moment.

“You know, I really have no ambitions. My biggest dream is to meet someone | love and be a good wife and mother. Unfortunately, the man I love does not reciprocate my love. I married him for three years and did my duties as his wife for three years, but he didn’t even touch me and never looked me in the eye. What do you think is wrong with me?”

Seeing Hailey like this, Brook felt very distressed. He reached out and touched her head. “Nonsense, you are the best girl in the world. He doesn’t cherish you because he doesn’t know what is good for him.”

“Yes, he is so dumb.

So from now on, I will never change myself for a man. I want to be myself. The brave, independent, and proud Hailey.”

In the apartment, Eliza took a cotton swab to apply ointment to the injury on

Owen’s hand. She looked at him with a distressed face. “Does it hurt?”

Owen shook his head, raised his hand to touch her swollen cheek, and asked her, “Does it hurt?”

“It did, but it stopped hurting when you touched it.” Eliza smiled gently.

“I’m sorry.” Owen sighed softly. “No matter how aggrieved I feel, she is still my mother-in-law to be.” Eliza leaned into Owen’s arms and persuaded him reasonably, “Owen, you must not get into a conflict with your mother because of me. I will be in deep sin because of that. In fact, it’s not that she doesn’t like me, it’s just that she is hostile to me because of my aunt. But me and my aunt are two completely

different people. I believe she will be moved by our true love one day. As long as we truly love each other, she will accept us one day…

There were still two more days until their wedding, so there must not be any mistakes!

As for Polly, she could die if that was what she wanted.

Owen gave a faint reply. His mother’s attitude was very resolute. His intuition

told him that the upcoming wedding would not be as smooth as he imagined.

“How’s your body?” He gently pushed Eliza away. Eliza was stunned. Then, she coughed weakly and smiled. “I’m okay. Medical technology is so advanced now. Maybe after I marry you, my stomach cancer will be cured on its own.”

“You are talking nonsense again. How can you not treat your illness?”

Owen continued, “I’ve already spoken to the best doctor. He’ll be arriving at

North City in a few days. I’ll let him take a look at you then.” Eliza’s eyes flashed, and she said coquettishly, “There’s no hurry. You know that I’m most afraid of going to the hospital. I’m scared when I hear about doctors. Let’s not talk about this anymore. When are we going to get our marriage

certificate?”

Hearing that, Owen paused. “Hailey Byrne and I still have some procedures to go through. It won’t be too late to get the certificate after we’re done with the wedding.” “Oh, okay then.” Eliza didn’t want to show that she was anxious, so she turned into a mellow woman and held Owne’s neck shyly as she blew on his face. “Owen, are you going to stay tonight?” “Not tonight. There are still some work matters to deal with.” Owen pulled her arm lightly and asked in neither a soft nor heavy tone, “Did you ask the

operations department to post the article on Mazedew Group’s official page this morning?” “Yes, you promised me that you would announce our marriage to the world.” “Eliza, I didn’t promise you.” Owen’s eyes were cold. Hearing the coldness in his voice, and the way he called her name, Eliza was

frightened. Looking at the man’s face and feeling the coldness emanating from his body, she did not dare to act coquettishly anymore, so she hurriedly got off his body and knelt in front of him.

“You, you did not refuse, so… I thought you agreed… I’m sorry, Owen. Did I

cause trouble for you?” With the timid look on the woman’s face, Owen’s dark eyes gradually softened. He replied gently, “It’s just small trouble that can be dealt with but try not to

interfere in my work again. Do you understand?” “Yes, I promise, there won’t be a next time!” Eliza stretched out her hand and swore, looking like a cute little woman. Owen’s eyes lit up. He suddenly remembered that when Hailey had just married him, she insisted on wiping his body. After being harshly scolded by him, she

raised her hand to show her obedience to him. Damn it! What happened to him? Why was he reminded of her for no reason all the time?
