How could William be with Hazel?
It's possible it was for business; the Franklin Group collaborates with Iverson, and it wouldn't be surprising if Iverson sent Hazel to liaise with William. But if it genuinely was business, William had no reason to hide it from her. He should know she wouldn't misinterpret his relationship with Hazel.
So, why did he hide it from her?
...
In New York.
Inside the car, Hazel, dressed in a sleek black dress with her hair in a bun, looked sharp and efficient. "I'm sorry, did I interrupt your call with your wife just now?"
William's gaze was fixed on the windshield in front of him. "It's nothing."
Hazel apologized, "William, you know I didn't mean to. I was just too focused on finding Aiden's whereabouts and didn't notice you were on the phone with your wife. I'm sorry..."
William's brows furrowed slightly.
Although Mia hadn't shown a significant change in tone, he knew she didn't believe his explanation.
