I’m telling you because I need you to take care of the things over in Akron for me.” Ethan knew that she was planning to build a research institute in her home country that would rival ZN Laboratory. He nodded but still had some doubts.”Hazel, Los Angeles is not a good place for both of us. Why do you still want to go back?”Hazel’s face turned cold as she thought about what the person on the phone had just said.The person who made the phone call was not a stranger.It was Abbie who took her from Nyack to Los Angeles that year.”There were some things that I couldn’t do anything about back then, but now… I can’t let people keep stepping on me all the time.

It's still too early for the parent-teacher meeting. After breakfast, I will tie your hair into a pretty ponytail.
