Hazel almost threw the phone out!
Even Madeline was able to reach Hazel on her phone, so it wasn’t surprising that Ted knew Hazel’s number.
Having said that, Hazel had never expected Ted to call her. Hazel could still feel that Ted disliked her. No, “dislike” sounded too polite. “Detest” was more proper.
Otherwise, Ted wouldn’t have spirited Joshua away and made Joshua and her separated for so long. Now Joshua returned to Country Z, Ted actually dispatched a woman like Madeline to stay by Joshua’s side.
Because of all that Ted had done, Hazel didn’t like him, either.
Taking a deep breath, Hazel was neither humble nor arrogant, “Hello, this is Hazel Crowe.”
His eyes became dark. He suddenly sat down and gently tucked her hair behind her ears.“Hazel, are you worried about me?” he whispered.“Yes.” Hazel sobbed as she leaned against his chest.She was reunited with Joshua with difficulty. Even if he completely forgot everything, it would be OK as long as it was him. She was really scared. What should she do if she woke up one day and found it was all just a dream?Patting her quivering shoulders, Joshua mused, “Alright, don’t worry. I won’t adopt a very aggressive method unless it’s necessary.”Although Hazel told him a lot last night, she understated the Sloane family and his falling off the cliff.
Ted was silent. After a long time, he said, somewhat disappointed, “... I am your father.”A son wanted to make a deal with his father?Hearing Joshua’s words, Ted felt stifled as he couldn’t vent his anger.Joshua ignored Ted’s words completely and said calmly, “You want Simon to go back to Country M because you want to have a normal father-son relationship with him. I can help you with this.”Ted was not at all happy to hear his statement.Ted said in a deep tone, “What’s the price? After I get one son back, I lose another? Joshua, I won’t agree.”Joshua’s eyes glinted, and he spoke calmly. “It’s
“Do you have to do that?” Hazel asked helplessly, biting her lip.They had not even said anything. Simon didn’t have a small talk with them nor beat about the bush; he didn’t give the two of them any chance to make a proposal. He just offered Joshua two clear options.Simon looked at her quietly. His heart only could not be hardened at all when he faced Hazel.Joshua cocked an eyebrow slightly. He didn’t like the way Simon stared at Hazel. It seemed that although he misunderstood Simon’s relationship with Hazel, his intuition did not lead him to misunderstand Simon’s feelings for Hazel.“Or you can take the third way,” said Simon in a deep tone. “You can leave the old man alone and me. Two of you stay away from
The atmosphere was a little dull. Simon gave them an indifferent look and got up from the sofa.“We don’t have to have dinner together today, lest we are all unhappy. As for...” Simon’s eyes flickered with loneliness. To be honest, he didn’t hate Joshua, and he didn’t want to become a stranger to Hazel, but it seemed like their relationship had to end up like this.He said in a deep voice as if he had made up his mind, “Whatever decision you’ve made, I don’t care...”With that, he looked disdainful and turned away.Hazel tried to ask him to stay, but Joshua stopped her.“Unless we choose to side with him, there’s no point in saying anything,” Joshua
His eyelids twitched slightly.In a flash, her face turned ashen as she said with exasperation, “Joshua, don’t tell me you’re going to use yourself as bait to lure him to you!”It wasn’t strange she would think so. Ian Flores had been trying to kill Joshua, so Joshua was in distress while he was on Stacy Island. If Ian knew Joshua was alive, Ian would do that again!Joshua sighed helplessly in his heart. Is Hazel always so sensitive and intelligent? “I’ll be more careful, Hazel...”“Can it be solved as long as you’re careful?” She got angry instantly. There was a layer of white mist in her eyes. “Weren’t you
“Do you mean I should forget about him and look for another man?” Her mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners with a sardonic smile.He was not aware of her displeasure. Instead, he thought that he himself had persuaded her.He continued, “In fact, there are many good men in this world. You still have a lot of options...”“For example, you’re pretty good, aren’t you?” The sarcasm on her lips grew more obvious.Hearing her words, he was secretly delighted in the heart. He had heard about Joshua’s death, and of course, he had heard that Denmark Group was in Hazel’s hands now.He had had dreams of Hazel bringing Denmark Group to chase after him, but he knew that th
“...” She was almost defeated by him. Joshua was so eager to go to the reunion of her class? Even if the two events collided, he still wanted to find time to attend the reunion.Now that he had said that, how could she say no?Since he wanted to attend it so much, then she would just go with him. After all, as he said, although the reunion was scheduled for 10 o’clock, a group of classmates would just have dinner and brag together. It would be okay for Hazel and Joshua to get there at noon.“All right.” She nodded in agreement.On the day of the reunion, Hazel and Joshua went to the hotel of Denmark Group for the meeting.After reaching the hotel, Hazel went to the bathroom first. Joshua wasn&rsq
“What?!” He looked at her in shock.Although he didn’t have Mrs. Wilson’s unrealistic expectations that Hazel would marry his son and that Hazel would hand Denmark Group over to him, Hazel’s choice was always a matter of great concern to all the directors.At least it seemed Hazel had been faithful to Joshua. Even if she wouldn’t choose his son, she also couldn’t marry other directors’ sons; this had always been Director Wilson’s thoughts.But now… Hazel was actually dating an unknown man? How could that be?!“I mean,” said Mrs. Wilson, clenching her fist and raising her voice, “our Hazel has a boyfriend!”The conference room, which had been
