Kyla’s eyes were red. She had a pitiful look on her face and said, "Hazel, I really want to apologize to you this time sincerely..."
"So, if an apology works, we don’t need the police?" Summer sneered and interrupted her.
Kyla bit her lip hard.
"You’re pretending to be mistreated and pitiful, do you want people to think that we are victimizing you?" Ariel said without mercy, “I guess now you are afraid that Hazel will sue you. You didn’t apologize before because you thought you were wrong!"
"Don't go too far..." Derek couldn't help but change his facial expression.
"Derek, don't act like this. I am the one who is wrong. No matter how they treat me, it is all my fault. I deserve the punishment." K
"Why hasn’t Hazel come back yet?" Summer looked toward the door, worried."She just went!" Ariel said with a smile.Seeing that everyone was looking at the door, Derek quietly exchanged his and Hazel’s glasses.He felt drunk by the wine. There was still a little bit of wine left in Hazel’s glass. If he drank it, wouldn’t he be indirectly kissing Hazel?The door of the room opened, and Kyla came in."Where is Hazel?" Summer quickly asked.Hazel had left? Kyla’s heart lightened. She was thinking about getting Hazel out of the room later, but she did not expect that she would leave voluntarily."I didn't see
“Do you still feel cold?” Joshua asked, turning down the temperature inside the room.Hazel was startled when she heard his voice, she jumped like she had been struck by lightning.She quickly turned her head around and saw Joshua, who was sitting behind her, drying her hair. He only wore a bathrobe, and it appeared that he wore nothing underneath it.Hazel was shocked. She looked down at herself and noticed she was only wearing a bathrobe as well."You… you…" she moved over hastily, looking at him with horror. "What have you done to me? Why am I here?""You don't remember anything?" Joshua was slightly surprised."Remember what?" Hazel cautiously picked
His phone did not break but just fell to the ground. It was not on speakerphone, but everyone in the room could still hear the screaming on the other end of the phone.Listening to the uncivilized ramblings of the man on the other end and Kyla’s response, Ariel and Summer were both stunned and could not help but blush.They were all anxious. Did Hazel encounter an attack like this?Derek walked over in a panic and picked up the phone. He pressed several buttons on it before he hung it."I have heard his voice..." Ivan stated as he seemed to be pondering something, then said, "Follow me."They walked out of the room, and Ivan stopped at a nearby room. They hesitantly stopped when they heard the sound of groaning coming f
Hazel told Joshua about her concerns, but she didn’t have any hope. She had not expected Joshua to call the restaurant downstairs and find out that Sarah was there.Joshua and Hazel found Sarah and gave her a simple explanation of the situation. Sarah and Hazel had a good friendship, so she was willing to help.Suddenly, Hazel recalled another memory, it was of an unhappy look that Joshua had earlier.Forget it and don’t think about it, she told herself.She touched her hot cheeks. Each time she thought of Joshua, the missing fragments related to him continued to come to her mind.She actually...had she really done so many shameful things? She was truly embarrassed to show her face around him.
Joshua pretended not to hear her, and he calmly turned his head.Hazel was stunned, and she suddenly couldn’t help but laugh. "Are you terrified of taking medicine?"Joshua looked gentle and steady, giving her the feeling that he thought he was profound and invincible, but he is actually afraid of taking medicine?His eyes flashed. "Not afraid, I am annoyed by taking it.""That's the same." Confirming the assumption in her heart, Hazel laughed louder.Seeing her laughing and being so happy, Joshua felt somewhat vulnerable."If you are sick, you should take medicine. Otherwise, how will you get better?" Hazel smiled and handed the medicine to him. "Nanny Carter told me to mak
"Mr. President, I have some things from work..." Janet looked at Hazel."That... if there is nothing else, I will leave to go home." Hazel said."You are going to leave wearing that?" Joshua's eyes flashed with disappointment.He really did not want anyone else to see Hazel looking so beautiful and vivacious."Em... How long does it take for my clothes to dry?" she asked.“It’s still early.” Joshua said calmly, “Let Nanny Carter take you to the lounge while you are waiting for them. We can have lunch together at noon.”Janet's face became even more ugly."This isn’t inconvenient, is it?” Hazel
Hazel said with a troubled expression, “They have told me it is too dangerous to be a police officer or a doctor. If I dare do that, they will break my legs. In their opinion, it’s better to be a civil servant, so they want me to get a good education and have a fulfilling career.”“What about you?” asked Joshua, “What do you want to be?”“Me?” Hazel thought for a while and shook her head, “I’ve never thought about that.”“Then think about it.” Joshua spoke to her softly, “Don't worry about anything else, just do what you like.”Hazel nodded her head in agreement.Janet held the chopsticks tighter when she heard what Joshua said to
Hazel had originally planned to give her a 10% discount. However, after calculating, she would still have to pay 10000 dollars herself. That was still too much for her, so she finally decided to give her 1% off.That would leave Hazel with 1000 dollars to pay. She had just received the payment for attending the Surrogacy Competition several days ago, which was exactly 1000 dollars.Thinking of that, she could not help but complain that capitalists were all money-hungry vampires. He even wanted the 1000 dollars back!“I’ll buy at the original price. Period!” Janet sneered and looked at her contemptuously.She really thought Hazel was just a greedy woman who loved money. How much could a dress and a pair of shoes cost? She was Mr. Denmark’s secretar
“Joshua…” She called his name with somewhat impatience.We can’t let Simon go. She felt that something would happen if they let him go. It was very strange; she seemed to be on the verge of figuring out something important, but now she still could not figure it out.“Hazel, what are you thinking about?” Even on such a tense occasion, Simon was rarely amused by her. He couldn’t help speaking, “You actually expect Joshua to risk your life just to keep me? Joshua, will you do that?”“What do you think?” Joshua spoke coldly.The people around Simon were scattering, which was his answer.“That’s right!&rdq
“Even if you were to tell me, why did you insist on my coming to you?” she whispered. “Let’s wait until Joshua comes….”“It involves my mother, and I don’t want anyone to know about it, especially Joshua,” he said in a deep tone. “Hazel, I’m just trying to convince you one last time. Even if I lied to you before, do you suspect I’d hurt you?”Looking at his wounded face, she could not help freezing a little. Indeed, Simon had done some outrageous things before, but at least he had never intended to hurt her. She was really a little ruthless by being so wary of him.“Good.” she opened her mouth. “If you can’t convince me, stay.”His eyes flashed, and he finally nod
“Hazel, are you kidding me?!” He looked at her in shock. “They say a pregnant woman is always stupid. You’re not so stupid as to fall into this trap by yourself, are you?”“You’re stupid! Your whole family is stupid!” She was furious.“You are my sister-in-law, and my whole family includes you.” He pointed it out without mercy, but he scolded himself immediately after he had said this. He was really quite used to the identity of being Joshua’s younger brother. When he said these words, he was not thinking at all.Ignoring his words, Hazel said with a solemn expression, “For some reason, I think this is very weird. I didn’t mean only myself when I said I wanted to go with you. We’ll take all the men.
His words couldn’t comfort Hazel at all.She frowned. Ian Flores hated Joshua very much, so if Ian knew that Joshua was alive, Ian would make a desperate attempt to avenge himself on Joshua. What was more, Joshua deliberately wanted to be reunited with the Sloane family, which would make Ian have more hatred of Joshua.But Ian would only risk everything when he was very sure that he could win.Just as Ian used Stacy to threaten Joshua last time, even if Ian did go to Joshua this time, Ian would be fully prepared.Worse still... Hazel felt a little flustered for no reason. She had a feeling that things were not going so well this time somehow and that there was something they did not know.“Simon, we have to be car
“...” Simon was extremely angry with him. Finally, he snapped, gritting his teeth, “Whose side do you take?”Joshua’s eyes went dark. “I’m giving you a chance to prove yourself.”“What?” Simon looked at him with a puzzle.“Our plan failed last time because something went wrong because of you,” Joshua said, picking up the wine glass and playing with it gently. “That’s why things end up like this today.”In an instant, Simon looked a little gloomy. He had been kicking himself over it. Even if he knew Joshua was safe now, he would not say frankly that it was not his fault.“What exactly are you trying to say?” Simon said irritab
“Please go home, both of you,” Chester said apologetically. “Master Simon hasn’t been in a good mood lately….”“Besides, if he sees us, he’ll be more unhappy, won’t he?” Hazel looked at Joshua and couldn’t help speaking.Helplessly, Joshua pinched her hand. How could Hazel undermine Simon like that?“What?” Chester looked at her blankly.“Nothing, nothing.” She hurried to smile and played dumb.Joshua gave Chester a quiet look. “Did he ask you to come out and drive us away?”“... Yes,” Chester replied with resignation. In fact, Chester wasn’t straightforward. Ho
He had a good knowledge of Ted’s tricks, so he would never put Hazel in danger!Hazel distressed herself about this. After losing his memory, Joshua seemed to become stubborn. In this case, it would be even more difficult for her to convince him.She thought for a bit and finally said, “But you’re here. You’ll protect me, won’t you? Besides, I’m pregnant, and I’m sure he won’t be hard on me.”His face was still pale, and he insisted, “No. Even if he isn’t hard on you, he’ll certainly try to make us misunderstand each other and break us up.”“Then, do you have no confidence in our relationship?” She sat directly in his arms, with her arms putting around his neck, and asked seductivel
She tugged anxiously at his sleeve. Joshua knew what she was worried about. He opened his mouth silently. “Trust me.”In an instant, Hazel was relieved.It seemed that Joshua didn’t really plan to go to war with Ted. It should only be a means of negotiation.After figuring it out, Hazel quieted down.Joshua’s eyes were filled with tenderness. Hazel actually trusted him so deeply?Ted was so shocked that he couldn’t speak.When he learned that Joshua and Simon had conspired to kill him at Stacy Island, Ted had a sinking feeling; that was also why he faked his own death.But he did not expect things would be
It was Ted. Joshua’s face darkened instantly.But the next moment, he calmly answered, “Mr. King.”Hazel stiffened slightly.“I’ve considered what you said before,” Ted said in a deep tone. “If you can improve the relationship between Simon and me, and that woman is really pregnant with your child, I can accept… that child.”With a chill in his eyes, Joshua coolly said, “Mr. King, I didn’t expect you would daydream.”Ted was exasperated. “Joshua, this is what I can only do!”“Then we don’t need to have any further discussion on this matter,” Joshua said, his chill deepening. &ldq
