Corey understood what she meant. She was trying to thank him for taking care of her last night and to have a cup of tea with him.
However, Corey did not want to respond to her now, so he pretended not to understand her words, and the silent one finished the remaining half cup of tea.
Hazel was lost for words.
Hazel bit her lips and stared at him while eating.
In his heart, she thought that he should remember the dishes he liked and his habits of eating.
However, throughout the whole process, Corey only drank a cup of tea and ate some rice. He did not eat any dishes at all. Moreover, he ate gracefully. It could be seen that he was a noble son raised by a big family.
“Corey, why aren’t you eating?” Kara asked.
Corey shook his head slightly, “I have too many scruples when eating, so I never touch anything outside, only taking some medicine.”
Kara was shocked.
Usually, he only took medicine and did not touch anything else. This was even more tragic than James losing his sense of taste.
“Are you feeling unwell?” Hazel stared at him, his heart aching.
Corey politely nodded his head, not wanting to say too much.
Kara looked at Hazel’s disappointed face and wanted to talk with Corey. Corey would be patient with her questions, but when Hazel picked up the topic again, he politely responded with one word.
Hazel felt uncomfortable and went to the toilet. Kara and Liz were worried and got up to find her.
Only two men were left in the room.
James ate some food. Because of the wound, his actions of picking up food were a little difficult.
“She doesn’t know about your injury?” Corey spoke first.
“No need.”
James ate slowly. He glanced at the rice in his bowl and looked up at him.
“Your old injuries have yet to heal?”
Corey was stunned. His fingers subconsciously wanted to touch his eyes, but his reason told him to restrain this action.
“You want to investigate me?”
As for the two smart men, it was needless to be roundabout.
For James to be able to say that he had an old injury, he must have investigated his information. Otherwise, he would not have asked.
“Same to you.” James sneered.
There were very few people who knew that his mother was Vivian. If Corey hadn’t investigated him, he wouldn’t have known.
“Although I don’t know why you must take my wife away, I can tell you that I can help you take revenge. You have to treat her by my side.”
Corey glanced at him but did not answer. He ate the rice in his bowl unhurriedly.
James didn’t hear his answer, but in silence, he already knew what he meant.
Revenge was fine, but as for Kara, he still had to take her away.
James frowned, feeling that he still had time to hide it from him.
Kara and the two girls returned to the private room again. Hazel’s eyes were red, obviously crying.
Corey’s expression was cold, and no emotions could be seen on his face, making it hard to read his thoughts.
When the four people left the restaurant, Kara and James were going back to the villa. Hazel saw Corey drive over and in Kara’s astonished gaze, she rushed to the front of the car and opened her arms to stop the car.
Corey did not expect that she would suddenly run to his car, secretly grinding his teeth. The speed of the car had not decreased, and it was moving at a constant speed.
Because it was a turn, Corey’s speed was not fast, but seeing that he did not stop the car, the onlookers were frightened.
Kara was worried that Corey would really drive Hazel away and wanted to stop him, but he was stopped by James.
“Believe me, don’t go.”
Kara paused in surprise, glanced at him, and nervously held his big hand.
Corey’s car only slowed down when it was five meters away from Hazel. When it stopped, it was right in front of her and the front of the car was close to her clothes.
When Hazel saw the car drive over, it was false to say that she was not nervous, but she had to give it a try.
When she heard the sound of the parking, she opened one of her eyes. A smile flashed across her eyes as she quickly opened the door to the passenger seat.
“Go home.”
Corey tightened his grip on the steering wheel, somewhat regretting not driving over directly.
Kara and Liz ran over worriedly. Liz asked nervously.
“Hazel, you want to go back with him?”
“Yes, I will attend class. I will go back.” She said seriously and waved at the two with a smile.
“Get out of my car!” Corey did not agree to go to his villa.
When Hazel heard his cold rebuke, she was so frightened that his neck shrank. However, she still grabbed the seatbelt and did not want to get out of the car.
“Corey, why don’t you give her a chance?”
Kara couldn’t bear to persuade her.
“Alright, I’ll sleep with her. You come with me!” Corey glanced at her, his lips curling into a cold sneer.
Kara was speechless.
Kara touched her nose, not daring to speak anymore.
Hazel knew that her behavior would be annoying, but she was always worried that he would leave, so she wanted to be with him.
“It’s fine. You guys, go back.”
Kara was helpless.
“Woman, I will say it again. Get off!” Corey warned again.
“No!”
Hazel stared at him expectantly, her gaze stubborn.
Corey felt that it was a waste of time to quarrel with this silly woman.
He drove away, but his face was cold enough to freeze the air around him.
Kara stared at Corey’s car disappearing and thought of Hazel’s stubbornness, she was worried.
Returning to the villa, Kara held the man’s arm and asked doubtfully.
“James, do you think Hazel and Corey will be together?”
James sat on the sofa. He glanced at her arrogantly and tapped his shoulder.
Kara blinked, realizing what he meant, and pouted, but still got up and walked behind him to massage his shoulders.
“James, my roommate is very good to me. I don’t want her to get hurt.”
James leaned comfortably on the sofa. When he heard her say that her roommate was good to her, his brown eyes had a trace of deep thought.
“It depends on the situation. The two of them will be together, but your roommate is bound to be hurt.”
“Then what should we do?” Kara was anxious.
Knowing that Hazel would get hurt when they were together, what should she do as a friend?
Seeing her anxious look, James held her wrist and asked her to sit beside him.
“Kara, if you know our relationship in other way, will you be unwilling to be with me?”
Kara looked at him in shock and lectured him with a straight face, “James, that’s impossible!”
“So, even if there are some things that you know the pros and cons, you will not avoid them. Instead, you will obey your own heart. Your roommate is not stupid. She must have thought of the worst situation, but she is unwilling to give it a try.
She had chosen her own love. She had persisted for so many years. Would she give up because of a single sentence?”
Along the way, listening to her chatter, he also had a general understanding of Hazel’s situation.
“Kara, everyone needs to grow up. This is her path. As a friend, you accompany her when she needs it, but should not do too much, understand?”
Kara understood what he meant. He wanted her not to interfere too much with Hazel and Corey.
Kara bit her lips. Because it was rare to meet two good friends, she wanted to help them as much as possible, but she did not expect that she might be the one who helped the evil.
“Kara, I don’t restrict you from making friends, but there is a limit to being friends.” James patiently taught her.
“James, it’s good that you reminded me.”
Kara gratefully kissed him on the face and revealed a bright smirk.
James looked at her bright smile and thought of what he had experienced in Country R. His eyes were cold and his thoughts were complicated.
