Isla Fox

Three years ago, Hazel Vance made a choice that changed everything. One night of passion with a mysterious stranger at a masquerade ball left her with more than just memories—it left her with a son whose rare violet-blue eyes are a constant reminder of the father she'll never find.

Now a struggling single mother, Hazel desperately needs the executive assistant position at Sterling Group. The salary could finally give her two-year-old Leo the life he deserves. But her new boss, CEO Liam Sterling, is nothing like she expected.

Demanding, brilliant, and devastatingly handsome, Liam has a reputation for being impossible to work for. Most assistants don't last a week. When Hazel refuses to be intimidated by his cold demeanor and sharp tongue, something shifts between them. The attraction is immediate and electric, crackling through every professional interaction.

But it's his eyes that stop her cold. The same striking violet-blue shade that stares back at her every morning when she looks at her son.

As the tension between them builds and the lines between professional and personal begin to blur, Hazel finds herself caught between her desperate need for this job and her growing attraction to the one man who could destroy everything she's worked for.

She doesn't know that Liam has been searching for the mysterious woman from the masquerade ball ever since that night changed him forever. And he has no idea that the composed, fiery assistant who challenges him at every turn is the same woman who haunts his dreams.

When the truth finally comes to light, will it bring them together or tear apart the fragile new life Hazel has built for herself and her son?

Chapter 153 - Reunion and New Family Bonds


It wasn't long before Miranda appeared in the doorway, gently guiding Leo by his small hand. The moment Leo spotted Liam across the room, he released Miranda's grip and sprinted toward him with pure joy.


"Liam!" Leo's voice rang out as he stretched his tiny arms wide. Liam immediately dropped to his knees, sweeping his son into his embrace.


"Leo. My precious boy." Liam's voice cracked with emotion as tears streamed down his face. The sight of father and son reunited sent waves of emotion through everyone present. I glanced around the room and saw tears glistening in every pair of eyes, including my own.


"Liam, I missed you so much. You stopped coming to play with me," Leo said with the innocent directness that only children possess.


"Oh, my sweet boy, I've been dying from missing you too." Liam's words came out between sobs as they clung to each other desperately.
