Chapter 333: It Was Indeed Him
With a loud bang, the door opened wide, rocking to and fro because the man had hit it too hard.
"How dare you!"
The man shouted aggressively after barging in!
''How dare you?'' Hazel snickered. ''Was this a court in old times?''
The two people in the room were dumbfounded.
(⊙_⊙)
Hazel and Oliver, the intruder, were also taken aback.
Mark was standing on adder stretching out his arms to wipe the chandelier.
While ine was holding it like amb.
ine was startled by Oliver and gaped at him.
And her legs went limp when he roared.
He was even scarier than a burr.
Mark was also frightened, and his legs grewid. Unfortunately, he was on thedder having trouble
keeping his bnce, so he fell off it.
Mark tried to smother his holler.
ine looked up and was scared out of her wits, shrieking. "Mark! Mark...."
Hended on the bed.
Hazel had closed her eyes before that.
He bounced there.
ine rushed over to check up on him, asking in panic,
"Mark, Mark, are you alright? You didn''t hurt yourself, did you? Is everything okay?"
Mark held back hisughter. Was he made of porcin? He was not that fragile.
"No, I''m fine.... It''s just ... my back hurts a little."
"What? Did you twist it? You must be in pain falling from such a high ce! Should we go to the
hospital for an X-ray?"
She knelt on the bed with a pout, rubbing his back tearfully.
Only then did Oliver regain his senses. He shook his head, pounced over, caught her under the arms,
and carried her off the bed.
...
"What are you doing? Let go of me! Oliver! You are pissing me off! It''s all your fault! If it hadn''t been for
you, Mark wouldn''t have fallen off thedder! You are responsible! Are you crazy? Why did you barge
in shouting! Let go!"
However, Oliver was also mad at her, pouting. "Why were you guys so intimate just now?"
"What are you talking about?"
She blinked hard.
Mark was a senior to her in school and was here to help her clean the ce. Why was Oliver being so
weird?
"Don''t you deny it! I saw you rub his back. You are not supposed to touch a man''s back like that."
ine straightened her back in anger and shouted like a trumpet,
"Rubbing his back? Of course I would do that! You broke in like a psycho and startled him! He fell and
hurt his back. What? You want to help him relieve the pain for me? You are so inconsiderate!"
(⊙_⊙)
Oliver froze and felt he had gone too far, but wouldn''t admit he had done anything wrong to save face.
Therefore, he forced these words, his lips trembling.
"Alright! I will rub him! I will do it!"
He was determined to stop her from touching him. He would take on the task for her.
She was not afraid of him. The rich and privileged Oliver didn''t impress her. Thus, she wouldn''t
concede and said pointing at Mark, her eyes wide.
"Go ahead! Knock yourself out. Rub Mark''s back!"
"How close are you two? Calling his name like that? Is he yours?" Oliver said jealously.
She lifted her chin and countered, "Do you have a problem with it? Mark, Mark, Mark! I am enjoying it."
Oliver was so incensed that he couldn''t catch his breath, almost fainting.
...
"Cut it off! Are you two done? It''s so annoying!"
Hazel walked to Mark''s side and helped him sit up. She gently drummed his back and rolled her eyes
at the pair in fight.
Mark smiled faintly and waved his hand, not affected by the drama.
"ine, I''m okay, really.... I just fell on my back, and it hurt a little. It''s nothing serious."
ine looked at Mark with a guilty expression and nodded, saying pitifully, "I''m sorry, Mark. You got
hurt because you wanted to help me."
Oliver rolled his eyes hard and sneered, "It was just a fall. A real man wouldn''t be whining about it.
What''s the big deal? What an actor!"
ine kicked Oliver andshed out, "What nonsense! You''re so annoying! Mark is not faking it! Try
falling from there and see if your back will hurt!"
"You ... you silly girl. You kicked me for him?"
Oliver goggled at Mark and then at ine, who was running towards Mark, his face dripping with
jealousy.
Finally, Hazel found a ster and stuck it on Mark''s back.
Mark wished ine could do it, but Oliver stopped her from approaching. Therefore, Mark had no
choice but to let Hazel do this intimate thing.
Sticking a ster on a man''s back.... How romantic.... Because of Oliver, ine missed the chance.
Mark sighed.
He sat on the sofa and nced at ine and Oliver who were in the kitchen.
The two enemies were making food there, bickering. ine tried to chase Oliver away like he had been
a fly, but he insisted on staying there.
For some reason, Mark felt jealous.
It seemed men were prone to that awful feeling, too.
"Mark, do you like ine?"
Hazel was smart and saw him through. She sized Mark up while shelling and eating hazelnuts.
...
Mark had been looking towards the kitchen with a sad expression!
Apparently, he was hurt by love!
"What? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Mark blushed awkwardly and turned to watch TV.
Hazel grinned and threw a hazelnut into her mouth. She raised her eyebrows and said,
"What''s there to be shy about? It''s normal you have a crush on her! Besides, ine is popr, and you
are not the only one who is feeling that way!"
"Come again? Who else likes her?"
Mark frowned.
Hazel smirked. "Have you admitted you like ine? If you have, I will tell you."N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
He red at her and sighed.
"You fox! I hate you. Alright, I admit it. You can tell me now."
"Heavens. Why? God, hear me! Why is it so unfair!"
Hazel raised her hands high and exaggeratedly said. Then she snorted,
"Mark, why do you all like ine? I think I am pretty good, too."
Mark said helplessly, "I''ve never said you are bad. You are indeed great. However..., doesn''t Mr. Lee
like you?"
Besides, no one could choose who he fell for.
Just like how Mark was infatuated with ine. He couldn''t stop loving her.
No one was the master of his feelings.
Hazel choked on hazelnut when she heard the name Lucas, coughing in pain.
Mark endured the pain in his back and wanted to crack Hazel''s back.
She looked towards the kitchen and whispered,
"Mark, see. This is Master Young from JY Group. He has confessed his love for ine in public. But
fear not. ine doesn''t have any feelings for him. I remember she said he was like a brother to her.
You can ignore this love rival."

Hazel continued,
"But there''s another one you should worry about. This is tough."
Mark narrowed his eyes while asking, "You mean Emmett?"
"What? You already know? How did you know?"
Hazel''s eyes were wide and full of shock.
No one was supposed to know about that.
How did Mark know?
Mark closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and reclined on the sofa.
He took another deep breath before replying, "So, I was right. It''s him."
"How did you know? Did ine tell you?"
She pursued the matter.
Mark opened his eyes and smiled bitterly.
"It''s a lucky guess."
"Mark, you''re so good at this! That one should be hard!"
Mark put on a wry smile again.
He nced at the kitchen a few times and brooded.
