Hazel looked around the place with confused eyes. She looked at Cyrus who gave her an assuring smile. The place looked weird. It looked like a hidden home or maybe something else. Cyrus held his hand forward for her to take and she hesitantly did.

After entering the place she realized it wasn't a hidden house instead it was a small hospital. Cyrus looked relaxed and composed while Hazel was obviously nervous. Why would he bring her to a place like this?

They stopped in front of a huge elevator making Cyrus press the button. After a long elevator ride, they reached the highest floor. She frowned finding only one room on the whole floor. Cyrus dragged her anxious figure towards that door and to her surprise, he has to use his fingerprint to open it.

Why so much security? She wondered when the door got opened. Cyrus finally looked at her and sighing heavily he motioned to enter the room. Gulping down she did as told only to be left shocked.

"Mom." A small whisper left her lips watching her mother sitting on the bed with a soup bowl laying in front of her.

Her mother woke up! She couldn't believe her eyes. Hearing the noise of the door opening her mother looked up and tears instantly filled her eyes seeing her grown-up daughter. Almost 7 years! After 7 years they finally saw each other.

"It's real, sweetheart. Go and meet her." Hearing his voice felt like he woke her up from her dream but nothing changed. Her mother was still in front of her.

Without thinking twice she ran towards her mother who opened her arms for her daughter. The doctor carefully pulled the tray away from the bed and let the mother and daughter have their time.

Cyrus looked at the doctor and motioned him to go out. After the doctor left Cyrus followed him out as well letting them have some time with each other alone.

"Mom I missed you so much." She mumbled kissing her mother's hands and face.

"My daughter." She cooed kissing her daughter's forehead again and again.

After some time of hugging and crying their eyes out, they calmed down. Hazel couldn't stop smiling while staring into her mother's emerald eyes. Hazel indeed inherited her eyes and even her soft features. Her mother wiped the tears from her cheeks shaking her head.

"I am here now my daughter. Stop crying." Hazel nodded her head before clutching her mother's hands in hers.

"Hazel, how are you, my life? Where are your grandmother and aunt? And who is that tall guy? From the time I woke up, I have only met him and he told me he will bring you to meet me. Whenever I asked him who he is to you he never answered me." Hazel nervously gulped down.

She had no idea what to answer her mother. She knew her mother will be highly disappointed with the truth and especially with the fact of how her grandmother treated her throughout the years. And how she didn't think twice before marrying her off to some rich guy for her own benefit.

And at the end of the day, her mother deserves to know everything. But not just yet. She just woke up Hazel didn't want to take any chances with her health right now.

"Mom just rest ok? I will tell you everything but not now. First I want you to become better." Her mother sighed shaking her head.

"Fine don't tell me everything but just answer my one question." Hazel nodded her head.

"Who is that guy? And why are you with him? " Hazel bit her inner cheek not knowing what to answer her. She knew she can't explain everything to her mother right now but for her assurance, she can share a little.

"Mom h-he's my husband." Her mother's eyes widened in shock.

"What!?" Hazel squeezed her mother's hands in assurance trying to calm her down.

"Relax mom. I am fine. I am living with my husband so don't worry. Please just focus on your health right now. It's more important than anything." Her mother even though wasn't much convinced but finally nodded her head caressing Hazel's head.

They both spent an hour with each other when the doctor entered the room. He informed the duo that it was time for Mrs. Astor to take medicines and rest. Hazel smiled at her mother and bidding goodbye she walked out of the room finding Creed standing there instead of Cyrus.

"Mam, boss asked me to drop you back to the mansion." She nodded her head even though she felt weirdly upset not seeing Cyrus there.

She wouldn't lie Cyrus has been behaving quite differently from the morning. Last night he didn't sleep in the same room as she knew there were no curls on the bed sheet on his side. He even didn't have breakfast. He didn't ask her to bring lunch. And even while they were in the car he didn't look in her way even though her hand was still held by him.

She noticed his tensed muscles and uneasy expressions. Something was going on in him and it looked like he was fighting with himself. She noticed how he was trying to stay away from her as much as he could but still, he couldn't help it.

"Where is he?" She questioned Creed after entering the car. Creed glanced at her before shaking his head.

"He had an important meeting that's why he has to go earlier otherwise he would have waited for you." Hazel noticed how even Creed sounded weird. But shaking her head she finally decided to stop overthinking.

"Can you call him for me?" Creed looked at her through the mirror before nodding his head. He called Cyrus and handed the phone to Hazel. Just after one ring, he picked it up.

"You dropped her safely?" His cold and stern voice entered her ear making her internally shiver at how cold he sounded.

"Hello, Cyrus." She mumbled grabbing his attention.

"Hazel." His voice surprisingly turned extremely soft and low making her blink her eyes in shock. The way his tone changed after hearing her voice made her surprised.
