Vanessa was infuriated.
She had really understated Hazel Crowe. She had intended to kiss Joshua, but Hazel not only sabotaged her plan but even showed off to provoke her!
“No, you misunderstood, I don’t mean anything else.” Hazel felt embarrassed. She hurried to explain, “We’re both women…”
“Don’t bother!” Vanessa interrupted with a cold face.
Her target was Joshua, but now the one she had to kiss was Hazel. How could she insist on the kiss?
“Forget it,” Kenny echoed to her words. “Let’s start over…”
“Why can’t we continue?” Isaac interrupted with a sneer. “If
“Don’t mention her then,” she said in a low voice.Even being inexperienced as she was, she could sense Vanessa’s hostility to her. Joshua suddenly mentioning her made her somewhat unhappy.Joshua raised his eyebrows in surprise.The reason why he suddenly mentioned Vanessa was that she suddenly mentioned he had promised her something when they played “Truth or Dare.”Vanessa was the daughter of a director of Denmark Group. Her father came to Joshua and asked him to help arrange a job for her at DenmarkGroup.Joshua had always refused directors to place their children in the company. But Vanessa’s parents were so close to his parents that he could not refuse them.
Just as they were about to leave, Nanny Carter came out and asked, “Is it, Miss Young?”“Yes.” Joshua nodded.“Mr. Denmark, you should personally take her home,” Nanny Carter advised. “Her family has helped the Denmark family. If anything happens to her, it would be hard for you to explain it.”“I see.” Joshua agreed and also got into the car.As soon as the car reached Vanessa’s apartment, Joshua and the driver helped her upstairs quickly to avoid suspicion.After finding the key in her bag, Joshua opened the apartment door, and the driver helped Vanessa walk into the bedroom.No sooner had she been put in her bedr
Hazel needed to go to the supermarket for the ingredients to make the chocolates, but just as she was leaving the dormitory, she saw Ivan waiting for her.She couldn’t resist frowning. Ivan still hadn’t called her since returning home after the incident in the mountains.“Hazel.” Ivan walked toward Hazel hesitantly.“What’s the matter, Ivan?” she asked politely.“Nothing, I just wanted to visit you.” He looked to be in a gloomy mood. “Are you going out? Let me be your driver.”“Don’t bother.” She smiled, distant. “I’m just going to the nearest supermarket, not that far.”“Th
“I am sorry, Ivan, I do not understand,” she came to her senses and interrupted calmly.Looking at his face, she took a deep breath. She did not know how Ivan felt before, but she knew it now, so naturally, they had to talk it over.“Ivan, your affection to me should not be love,” she spoke quietly. “I always think that to love someone is to be nice to that person. It’s the first time I’ve heard that the one you love must be persecuted first even if she did nothing wrong.”“I...” he wanted to explain something, but she interrupted him.“As a friend, I can understand your helplessness but cannot accept it as an excuse. Besides, since you feel that your helplessness is more important than my injustice, doesn
Joshua smiled, any doubt he had was gone, and he felt completely relieved. Hazel was not hiding anything from him, which meant nothing was going on between her and Ivan.“Mmm. Try to go back to school as early as possible, it’s cold,” he said.“Don’t you want to ask me what we talked about?” She was curious.“Hazel, I trust you,” he said in a low voice. “You can handle these things.”She felt happy that he trusted her. Joshua did not continue asking her what had happened but gave her space to deal with it herself.“It’s done.” She asked playfully, “What about you? Is there any relationship that you need to deal with?”
Hazel froze when she saw them together, she was both panic-stricken and stunned.When Vanessa called her, she did not believe her story at all, and even when she had asked Joshua for proof, it was because she was a little unsure, but then he answered honestly, so she believed him.But now, she actually saw Vanessa leaning intimately on Joshua’s chest as if she were crying while Joshua patted her on the back as if he was comforting her. They looked like a couple who hadn’t seen each other for a long time while she was standing there like his mistress.How could this be happening?Joshua didn’t want her to pick him up because he was meeting Vanessa Young?Hazel’s heart was filled with anger at being dece
Unable to hear her response, Isaac anxiously asked, “Hazel, are you all right?”“Yeah, it is nothing.” Hazel sucked in a deep breath. “I’m just asking.”“Really?” He was still worried.“Really,” she replied.After a brief chat with Isaac, she hung up.She went straight back to her dorm, she was thankful that Summer and Ariel weren’t there.She looked down at the chocolate box in her hand. She had actually brought it back, she threw it in the trash can without thinking twice.Just as it hit the bottom of the can with a loud thud, her phone rang.
It turned out to be Joshua who was breaking in?Hazel looked at him in astonishment. She lived on the fifth floor. He climbed up to the balcony from the first floor?!But the bitterness and anger seemed to burst, and she could not help cursing. “What are you doing here?!”Joshua’s face changed slightly, and he leaned back against the wall. She was frightened and hurried to grab him by the wrist.She looked down and saw there was only one rope tied to the balcony railing. There were no other safety precautions at all.“Are you mad?!” she shouted angrily. “Do you want to die? This is the fifth floor! Why would you dare climb up like that?!”
