From Secret Wife to Queen of Her World

Chapter132.

Hazel immediately held her breath, covered her mouth with her hand, and pretended to faint.

After a while, the door was opened by someone from outside, and faint and hurried footsteps approached from a distance.

One of the three people deliberately lowered his voice and urgently said, "Quick. Come and get her." Hazel was supported by two maids as she was led out of the coffee room and into a room near the corner.

She smelled a faintly familiar and refreshing scent, like the smell of plants in a vast forest. Hazel's tightly closed eyes slowly opened a crack, surveying the dim room in front of her. There was no main light turned on in the room, only the warm light from the pendant lamp hanging above the bedside, casting its glow onto the bedsheet that couldn't be distinguished as either dark gray or black.

A maid whispered to her companion, "Be careful, don't bump into anything and wake her up." "Don't worry, the dosage is sufficient. She won't wake up for at least half an hour."

One maid gave the other a suggestive look, and the maid immediately took off Hazel's high heels, which matched Hazel's dress.

The two of them worked together to lay Hazel flat on the bed.

"Hurry up, our master will be back soon."

Hazel opened her eyes and sat up to observe the arrangement of the room upon hearing the sound of closing the door.

A minimalist home decor without any excessive decorations.

Hazel caught a glimpse of several documents placed on the table and was just about to walk over to take a look when she heard the sound of the password lock being unlocked outside the room.

She immediately lay back on the bed.

Dylan tugged Just now, after dealing with Yusuf, he was called over by Charlie and ended up drinking a lot of alcohol with some elders from prestigious families.

Dylan had a high alcohol tolerance, but it was unclear whether it was due to his hospitalization and restricted diet, or if it had been a long time since he last drank, resulting in a decrease in his alcohol tolerance.

He always felt dizzy today compared to before.

The room was designed as a suite, with the living room unable to see the bedroom. He placed his suit jacket on the couch and habitually poured himself a glass of ice water, but it

was still of no avail.

Dylan drank two more cups heavily, but it still didn't alleviate it.

He felt his body temperature rising continuously, and his skin seemed to turn into a blazing flame, emitting waves of heat.

"What's going on? The first thing that came to his mind was whether he had been drugged by

someone.

But upon further reflection, it seemed unlikely.

All the food that passed through his mouth today was given to him by his trusted ones around him. Even the ice water in the house was prepared by the Bennett family's long-time butler, making it impossible for anyone to poison it

Unable to understand, Dylan felt a heat emanating from within him. He got up and went to the bathroom. Before entering the bathroom, he also took the opportunity to turn on the air conditioner in the

room.

He set the temperature to the lowest value and then quickly took a shower in the bathroom. When he came out, the room already had sufficient air conditioning.

Dylan didn't like overly bright lights, so the room was often dimly lit with warm light, like a hot cocoa in winter or a sunset in summer, giving a very warm feeling-

In the quiet bedroom, Dylan was wiping his hair as he walked towards the bedroom.

He remembered that there were still a few documents left unattended, but as soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw Hazel lying on the bed.

He was surprised.

He didn't expect Hazel to appear on his bed.

Dylan's brain went numb for a moment, his breath paused, as if a lightning bolt struck him of the top of his head, and his limbs also became dull.

No wonder he asked someone to find Hazel earlier but there was no answer. It turned out Hazel was sent to his room.

Hazel also already knew Dylan was the owner of this room.

She had always thought that the master mentioned by the maids was a distant relative who used to live with the Bennett family before Dylan's return. She never expected it to be Dylan. Too many possibilities and speculations collided in Dylan's mind.

The woman he had been thinking about all the time was lying in his room, on his bed. It was impossible for his thoughts not to wander even for a moment.

Especially, even though he took a cold shower, it did not prevent the waves of heat from emanating from his body.

But in the end, reason restrained his actions.

He resisted the constant heat emanating from his body and nudged Hazel's arm."Hazel, wake up." While pretending to have been awakened by Dylan, Hazel looked at him with confusion and asked, "Where is this?"

The voice seemed to be stuck in Dylan's throat, choking him deep in his throat. Dylan didn't know how to speak for a moment.

After all, lying beneath Hazel was his bed.

Dylan knew he had to explain today's matter clearly, otherwise he and Hazel would probably not even be friends.

This is the room of mine in the Bennett family.

"Sorry, I didn't know what happened and I can't explain how you ended up in my room."

Hazel stared at Dylan's eyes carefully, and Dylan allowed Hazel to examine him. His eyes looked innocent.

"Okay, I believe you, but I need an explanation."

Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."

Hazel got off Dylan's bed and walked to the couch outside.

Although she didn't smell much of the fragrances from the coffee room just now, a small part still

managed to seep into her nostrils, causing a slight dizziness in her brain. She saw a transparent water

kettle filled with ice cubes on the coffee table, and she was about to reach out to pour herself a refreshing cup when she smelled a scent.

It smelled very similar to the fragrances in the coffee room.

Hazel froze and glanced at the upside-down cup on the coffee table. She looked up and saw Dylan standing at the bedroom door, keeping a distance from her.

"Have you ever drunk this water?"

Dylan nodded and said, "I had too much to drink at the banquet earlier and felt a bit hot, so I went back to the room and had a lot of water.'

Hazel looked at Dylan with a complex expression and said, "Didn't you feel it getting hotter as you drank

it?"

Dylan immediately realized the meaning behind the words and furrowed his brows. He said, "Are you suspecting that someone drugged this water?"

Hazel shook her head and said, "Suspecting? No, I'm sure."

The air in the quiet room seemed to have frozen in an instant.

Dylan's face turned very pale.

In the Bennett family, the only person who could reach into his room, besides his grandfather, was him. Dylan said, "How did you..."

Hazel understood Dylan's meaning and confessed that the reason she appeared here was because Charlie had invited her to the coffee room.

"But as soon as I entered, I smelled a fragrance.

I immediately held my breath and pretended to be unconscious, and was brought here by two

maids."

The speculation in Dylan's mind was confirmed, and Dylan's complexion did not look good. Charlie not only drugged Hazel but also had someone put drugs in the ice water Dylan usually drank.

Maybe Dylan was just called

to go for drink, and Charlie had a

First, Charlie intentionally made Hazel unconscious and sent her to Dylan's room. Then, Charlie got Dylan drunk and even drugged Dylan, providing double protection. "Sorry, this is our fault, the Bennett family. I apologize to you."

Hazel knew that even if Charlie wasn't the mastermind, he would definitely be involved.

"Investigate the truth first."

While sensing that the indoor temperature was getting lower, Hazel reminded, "You need to go to the hospital as soon as possible to deal with your body."

No matter how cold the air conditioning was, it couldn't stop the heat inside Dylan's body. If it weren't for Dylan's disappointment with Charlie, Dylan would have probably lost his sanity by now.

However, just as he was seeing Hazel off at the door, someone knocked on the door from outside, like the
