Katie's face was stiff.
She had thought that Hazel would not blame her for her past as long as she made a casual apology. But according to the current situation... Hazel didn't mean to forgive her at all!
"Miss Crowe, aren't you here to forgive me?" She bit her lip and asked.
"Are you so important? Why do I have to forgive you?" Hazel looked at her, speechless. "It was because you said you wanted to apologize that I'm here. But who stipulates that as long as you apologize, I will definitely forgive you?"
Katie was exasperated!
It turned out that Hazel deliberately came to embarrass and humiliate her!
"Do you think I'm here to embarrass you and humiliate you intentionally?" Hazel suddenly opened her mouth with a vague smile as she picked up the cup in front of her and shook it gently.
Katie's eyes fell on the cup in Hazel's hand, and her heart was suddenly in her mouth!
The cup of tea she gave to Hazel had been drugged!
She had planned to trick Hazel into drinking it, but she didn't expect Hazel to take the bait so soon!
Katie's eyes were almost fixed on the cup, but she had to force herself to calm down. "No... How could I think so?"
Hazel's mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners; she laughed like a fox.
Katie's current eyes showed she was dying to help Hazel drink the tea directly. If she could not guess there was something wrong with this cup of tea, Hazel was too foolish. She really didn't take this little drug trick seriously.
"Right. Only those who do not really want to apologize would feel that I am deliberately humiliating. Those who sincerely apologize will not demand others must forgive them. What kind of people are you?" She smiled.
The next moment she put the cup near her lips as if she were ready to drink.
Katie clenched her teeth reluctantly. She said helplessly, "I really come here to apologize... I just want you to understand my apology. I'm really wrong. I won't insist on getting forgiveness from you..."
"Oh—" Hazel looked as if she understood instantly. She put down the cup. "My answer is: I don't forgive you."
Looking at the cup put down, Katie could no longer hold back her anger! It suddenly dawned on her that Hazel had no intention of drinking that cup of tea at all!
She looked up and glared at Hazel in exasperation. "Hazel, are you playing a trick on me? You have never intended to drink it at all, haven't you?!"
"You know that now?" Hazel picked up the cup again with a half-smile. "Do you think I'm going to fall for this kind of old-fashioned trick of putting drugs in water?"
Now that they had fallen out, Hazel didn't want to speak obscurely with her any longer.
"I, I didn't!" Katie was furious. "I just poured tea water. You also saw that. How could I possibly have a chance with the drug?"
Hazel looked at Katie as if she was an idiot. Did Katie think she was so gullible? Since Katie had prepared the water and the cup, she, of course, had a chance to drug at any time.
But Hazel didn't bother to argue with her.
"Fine. Since you say you didn't do that, you drink it," Hazel said with a slight smile. "As long as you're willing to drink it, I promise you that I'll let the Shawn family go."
Katie was very outraged. Hazel was talking about letting the Shawn family go but not talking about letting her go. Besides, she was not Grandma Shawn. How could she possibly care about the Shawn family's fate?
Moreover, even if Hazel promised to let her go, she would not drink that cup of tea!
"You suspect even a glass of water. I think you're here to humiliate me deliberately!" Katie said angrily.
Hazel got up calmly from the sofa. Then she threw the cup of tea directly into the trash can without hesitation. "It looks like the Shawn family is nothing to you. In that case, I'm tired of playing, and there's no need for me to stay anymore."
In an instant, Katie was worried. She fooled Hazel into coming here with difficulty. How could she possibly have another chance if she allowed Hazel to leave like this?
"Wait, don't go!" Katie stood in front of her with anger.
"What else do you want to do?" Hazel folded her arms, looking at her indifferently.
"Don't, don't you want to save Callie Shawn?" Katie's eyes flashed with a malicious light. "She came here for you. Now she's in danger. But you actually turn a deaf ear to her danger?"
Hazel furrowed her eyebrows slightly. Katie had sent out Callie and Grandma Shawn from the very beginning. How could she be in danger since she was with Grandma Shawn? However, Hazel was still a little uneasy.
"What danger could she possibly have?" Hazel asked.
Katie's eyes suddenly lit up. She finally found Hazel's weakness! This woman actually cared about Callie Shawn's safety. That was just right. She would make both of them thoroughly discredited today!
"Callie has hypoglycemia," Katie said proudly, "so she always carries a sugar box with her, but she doesn't know that I secretly had her sugar changed! That's also what I've put in the water!"
Hazel's eyes became dark. It suddenly occurred to her that when she got out of the elevator, Callie took out a box, and it seemed she had sugar.
Now, no matter what Katie said was true or false, she must confirm it first.
"Where is she now?!" Hazel grabbed her arm and snapped.
"You, you let go!" The pain in her arm distorted Katie's face. She tried hard to shake off Hazel's hand, but she didn't take Hazel's strength seriously. She thought it was just because of Hazel's anger for a moment.
Hazel loosened her hand coldly. "Take me to find her, or I won't let you go."
"Okay!" Katie said in exasperation.
She had planned to entice Hazel to go with her, to begin with, so she agreed very quickly.
Katie looked at the door proudly. "Callie Shawn is in this room. You can go in and find her! But I hope you won't be scared by what's going on inside!"
Hazel gave her a cold look and then pushed the door open.
A crook appeared, and Katie's eyes flashed with a vicious gleam. She held out her hands to pushed Hazel.
But before her hands could touch Hazel, she saw Hazel's palms stretching out like lightning and grabbing her wrists swiftly!
"You, you...!" Katie's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Why was Hazel so alert?
"Now help me find her!" Hazel said in a deep tone. The next moment, she f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y pushed Katie straight into the room, and even before Katie could react, she directly locked the door!
