It was almost the end of the year now. Hazel needed a sum of money for the employees' salaries.
Moreover, she was about to compete with the Black family for custody of the children. A good lawyer would require a lot of money, too.
Therefore, she urgently needed money now!
They traveled in a car.
Along the way, Hazel kept coughing.
Nova quickly handed her a bottle of water. "Miss Haynes, can you handle this? You look terrible!"
Hazel took the water and took two sips weakly. "I'm fine. I'll be better after resting."
After saying that, Hazel leaned against the back seat and shut her eyes to rest.
She took four antipyretic pills just now, and the effects of the medicine were kicking in. She felt weak and sleepy now.
Her heart was beating fast, and her right eyelid was twitching non–stop. She had an ominous feeling that something bad was about to happen!
