Hazel noticed he was laughing at her, and she got angry and crossed her hands across the chest.
"Stop laughing. There is nothing funny. Just because I don't have a boyfriend right now does not mean I cannot dream," Hazel scowled.
"There is nothing wrong. In fact, I would tell you to dream about a lot of things, and when you meet your future husband, you need to tell him all your plans, so that he can fulfill them for you," Enzo said in fake seriousness.
Hazel looked at him for a minute and thought he was genuine, "Of course, if my boyfriend does not fulfill all my conditions, then I will not marry him."
Hazel was the pampered princess of the Ambrosio clan and Tristan, her father, spoiled her to the core. Growing up, she got everything in life before even opening her mouth. In the future, she expected the same treatment from her husband.
If she was a princess in her maiden house, then she dreamed of being the queen of her husband.
They were in his study room where Hazel had her laptop, a few textbooks, and a writing pad in front of her. Enzo went through her syllabus and made a timetable on what to study on a specific day.
He selected three topics which she needed to write a research paper because of her punishment of using her phone during the class.
"So your first topic is X, now read as much as possible about this and make pointers on it. I will check and let you know what to do further," Enzo stated.
"Are you telling me I should read about these topics? Didn't you promise you will do my assignment?" Hazel accused him.
"I promised you to help with your assignment, not do your assignment. There is a difference," Enzo stated.
"Wow! I cannot believe you. This is cheating!" Hazel banged the pen on the table.
"I have no problem writing your paper, and it will hardly take an hour for me. But it will be a loss for you. What happens if the professor asks you to explain the topic? She will know somebody else did it, and you will get a harsher punishment next week. And the topics I have selected are quite important, and by learning about them, it will be quite easy for you when you take the exams," Enzo explained.
"I am never trusting you again," Hazel whined.
"Hazel, I am not telling you to do it entirely. Just write some points, then I will help you," Enzo assured her.
Hazel sulked while she opened the laptop and typed the topic x on her search engine.
While Enzo started working on his tasks, he occasionally glanced at her and she appeared to be writing something on the paper seriously. He was content with her progression. After a while, he did not bother to check on her but continued his work.
Enzo looked at the clock and cursed himself. He was not aware of the time when he worked. He did not even feed her anything after they came home, and now it's been so late that she looked so pale. He called the housekeeper and told Hazel to tell her what she wanted to eat.
"How about Thai food tonight?" Hazel asked.
"You heard her," Enzo said sternly to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper took a few other instructions from Hazel. Things like if she was allergic to anything, how much spice she preferred, and did she have any other requests? Bowing her head down, the housekeeper went to the first floor and could not help but gossip about the new woman in the house.
All the staff had been working in this house for a few years and we're very familiar with both the heirs of the Santoris family. Logan was a Casanova who brought in models, actresses, and other popular women. There were so many that most of the time, they never saw the same woman twice.
Logan's women wore tight dresses, heavy makeup, and acted so shallow. They easily learned that they were just bed buddies, and whenever these women came over, they would act as if they were the owners, arrogantly ordering the servants around, and without permission roamed around every corner of the house.
Sadly, those women did not know that Logan always played with the hearts of other people, but let no one play with him.
But Enzo was very different from day one. He would never bring home any women. In fact, he did not even spare a glance at any of his brother's friends.
They had no idea whether he was dating someone or was he single. Being the housekeeper, they could not guess. They could only try to come to a conclusion by bits and pieces of information they gathered.
Enzo's personality was too cold and aloof. He acted as if he was a monk who was not shaken by any beauty.
There was an incident where one woman came to the house asking for Logan. The servants informed her he was out of the country and would return after two days.
The woman told them that Logan had called her and he was cutting his trip short and she should wait for him. The servants did not believe her and did not let her in. When Enzo entered the house, her pupils dilated, and she started flirting with him.
Enzo ignored her, but he reached his limit when she tried to touch his chest. In anger, he pushed her away, which made her fall on one of the showpieces nearby. The blades pierced her right shoulder, and blood started dripping down her arm.
She started crying out in pain and looked to Enzo for help. But he pretended not to have heard her and removed his coat to throw it on the floor.
He stood there heartlessly, watching that woman bleed, and stopped the maids from helping her. Instruct them to throw her outside instead.
Later, when Enzo called Logan to scold him about the woman who came to his house, Logan said they had broken up six months before. It was clear she had come here to hook up with the elder Santoris heir, who was more powerful and handsome.
The maids thought that because of his short temper and rude behavior, the ladies stayed away from him. So today, they were pleasantly surprised when Enzo brought a woman home.. She looked very young compared to him, and she was not quite what they expected.
