James glanced at the hand that gripped Hazel's arm. He lifted his gaze and met Jake's eyes, staring at him with intent. "Sir, I don't know what your problem is. But you can't treat a woman this way."
Jake contracted his eyes, and he didn't like how nosy this guy was.
Meanwhile, Hazel was in a trance, staring at James. She doesn't understand, but her heart flutters inside her chest after the guy addresses her as a "woman" and not just a girl.
Jake frowned upon seeing Hazel looking dreamily at the other guy. This guy is one of Hailee's executives, and he doesn't like the way Hazel looks at him.
'Is she liking this man? That is why she avoids me?' he muttered to himself; displeasure appeared on his handsome face.
"Hazel and I are dating, and I just wanted to clarify some things with her," said Jake. His gaze never left James.
She was seeing the two men wrestle gazes. Hazel began having a bad feeling.
