Chapter 017 The First Secret Exposed
Owen sat by the bed in the master bedroom and watched the video sent by Matthew. It was taken from Matthew when he hacked into the surveillance system. The video was colorful, and the music was noisy. Owen frowned as he hated this kind of noisy and messy place the most, but he still patiently watched it.
A woman’s figure appeared in his sight. The woman was undoubtedly the focus of the audience. She was wearing a fiery red sexy spaghetti strap dress and a pair of golden high heels. She swayed to the music in the middle of the dance floor, like a free spirit. Her movements were not exaggerated, but it was difficult to hide her charm and liveliness. Her snow-white skin was glowing under the light. Her head tilted slightly revealing a stunning face.
Hailey Byrne!
When he saw the woman’s face clearly, Owen almost jumped up from the bed. His pupils suddenly widened. It was her, but it didn’t seem like her. His ex-wife was gentle and boring. How could she be a sharp and sexy woman?
This woman was like an alluring devil! Owen stared at the video intently. Looking at the woman’s every move, he wanted to tell himself that it was not her. However, even though the makeup on her face was heavy, it did not cover the tear mole under the corner of her right eye.
It was undoubtedly her!
The next moment, he saw his good friend swaying his tall body and moving his big hand along her waist to her perky buttocks… Owen’s eyes darkened. He clenched his phone and couldn’t help but grit his
teeth. “How dare this bastard take advantage of my wife. Is he tired of living?”
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he saw the woman who was almost taken advantage of immediately throw Matthew over her shoulder. Then, she struck out with her palm. Her movements were valiant and ruthless!
Owen’s pupils dilated again.
“Did you see how your ex-wife hit me? My shoulders are still hurting. Did you teach her how to do this?” Matthew complained on the phone.
Owen could no longer sit still. He immediately walked out and said to the
phone, “Send me the address.”
On the way to Poya, Owen played the video again and again. His eyes were dark and unclear. It was obvious that this was her true color. It was wrong to say that she was gentle and virtuous!
But her disguise was too successful. After three years of marriage, he still
couldn’t see through her true self. Then who exactly was she? Matthew said that Brook claimed that she was his sister. It was known by
everyone that the Kirkland family did not have a daughter for three generations. Or… was she Brook’s lover? This thought made Owen’s already cold face quickly covered with a layer of frost, and the pressure around him was very tense.
He wanted to see what kind of tricks she was playing!
Hailey slept until morning. When she opened her eyes, her head hurt. It was as
if an elephant had stepped on her. “You’re awake?”
Brook appeared at the head of the bed at the right time and handed her a glass of milk “Why am I here?” Hailey frowned and took the glass of milk. Her voice was still a little hoarse. “You were so drunk. It was late so I didn’t want you to go back alone in the
middle of the night.”
Brook was eating breakfast at the table. He watched Hailey pinch her nose and pour the milk into her mouth like she was drinking medicine. He looked at her with amusement. “You have never liked drinking milk since you were a child. Every time you drink milk, you look like you are drinking poison.” After drinking the milk, Hailey quickly rinsed her mouth with water. Her
stomach had indeed eased a lot. Looking at the wrinkled skirt on her body, she
picked up her phone and sent a message to her assistant. Then, she walked to the bathroom “Do you remember what happened last night?” Brook asked calmly from behind her. Hearing that, Hailey stopped in her tracks. She turned her head and tried hard to recall. “I was dancing. Then, someone tried to take advantage of me, so I gave him a shoulder throw and slapped him. Is that right?” “Well, then what?”
She couldn’t remember what happened after that. Brook took a sip of coffee and glanced at Hailey. “You vomited all over a person in the elevator.” “Oh.” Hailey said without any hint of feeling bad, “Consider him unlucky.” After taking two more steps forward, Hailey suddenly felt that something was wrong. She paused and turned her head. “He is not some big shot, right?” Brook wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin. “The young master of the Holland family in Belindao, Matthew Holland.” “The Holland family in Belindao? The legendary family of the underground world?” Hailey frowned. “Congratulations, you got it right.” Hailey frowned again before waving her hand. “I don’t care. He teased me first.
If things turn south, I can ask Brandon to help me solve it.” It was not certain who would win or lose. Brook looked at Hailey walking into the bathroom with ease. He was helpless against this sister who always caused trouble and was still indifferent about it. It was as if she had returned to the time when she was a child. She used to cause trouble to her heart’s content, and her elder brothers would clean up her mess after her.
This feeling was quite good.
Hailey took a hot bath and felt much better. Just as she came out of the
bathroom, her assistants arrived.
Her two personal assistants came with multiple bags. They put clothes, Shoes, jewelry, and bags in front of her and waited for Hailey to choose.
Hailey sat on the sofa and drank coffee with her legs crossed. She asked the makeup artist to take care of her hair. “This, this, and this.”
After changing her clothes, Hailey walked out of the suite. Instead of entering the elevator, she turned into a corner and came to the door of suite number 77. She politely knocked on the door. “Knock, knock.” The door opened from the inside, revealing a sleepy face that had not yet woken up. The man was quite handsome and was only wearing a boxer. His well-built figure was very firm. At a glance, it was obvious that he had been carrying weights all year round.
Hailey glanced at him briefly, but she did not show any emotions. After all, she had seen this kind of body too many times in the past three years. It was not
something new to her anymore Matthew was very unhappy that his sleep had been disturbed, but when he saw
the woman’s face, he instantly woke up. He raised his peach blossom eyes that were still blurry. “Isn’t this the little wild cat from last night? What do you want this early?”
“I heard that I vomited all over you yesterday. This is to compensate you for your clothes.”
Hailey threw a brand new suit into the man’s arms. “You took advantage of me, so I beat you up. I vomited all over your clothes, so I compensate you with a new set. We don’t owe each other anything anymore, right?” “You can say that.” Matthew nodded. “That’s good. If you still can’t get over it, feel free to come and find me.” Hailey
turned around and left.
Matthew leaned against the door and asked with interest, “I don’t even know
who you are. How can I find you?” “Crystaldale Company, Hailey Newman.” Hailey did not even look back. Matthew looked at the back of the woman who left. She was as noble as a
swan. His pair of peach blossom eyes blinked. It turned out that she was the rumored First Young Lady of the Newmans who was resurrected from the dead.
This time, he was in trouble.

Matthew smirked and took out his phone, “Are you here? She just went down.” In the lobby of the first floor of The Nomad, there was no one in the bar early in the morning. There was only a handsome and cold figure sitting in the middle of the waiting area. His eyes fell on elevator number 1, waiting for someone toExclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
appear.
Five seconds later, the elevator door slowly opened. Owen looked up and saw a sexy and capable woman in a leather dress with a red suit jacket over her. Her neat short hair could not hide her beautiful face, and her swan neck was very attractive. She walked like the wind, and the diamond pendant earring next to her ear trembled slightly, like a wind chime, which added a trace of coldness to the woman’s beautiful face.
Similarly, as soon as Hailey came out of the elevator, he saw the extremely familiar cold face on the seat.
The eyes of the two people accurately came into contact.
