Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Hazel was a little shocked, she looked at Joshua with a serious expression and seemed to want to say something after she saw the look on his face.

"Don't get me wrong," he said quietly. "It doesn't matter to me whether they are good or bad, poor or rich. But since people would attack me by using my true birth once, there will be another time. Rather than let it be used as a means for others to attack me, it would be better to find them."

She really didn't know what to say. He could talk about them with no feeling whatsoever, which led Hazel to believe that he really didn't have much in the way of expectations.

Maybe he had been desperate, or maybe her parents healed his wounds. But she could tell that he was very unwilling to face it.

She slowly put her arms around his waist.

"Hazel?" He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Nothing," she said with a soft smile on her lips. "I just want to hold you. I'll always be here for you, Joshua."

A smile curved his lips. Did this kind of girl feel bad for him? He definitely did not mind if she did.

When it was time to meet Isaac and others, Joshua took Hazel to a private golf course.

Hazel hadn't played golf before, but fortunately, because she had been exercising since childhood, her movements were smooth, and she was soon able to get the hang of it with Joshua's guidance.

When Isaac and others arrived, they saw the two of them playing lovingly.

Speechless, Kenny and Chuck stared at Isaac because it was he who had arranged this get-together. Every time they got together with Joshua, they would have to watch their public display of affection.

"I've had enough of watching them!" Chuck said darkly.

"Yes, me too! We should fight back!" Isaac said solemnly, looking at Chuck, "Is there anything you can do?"

"Yes!" Chuck took out his phone.

"What?" Isaac was curious.

"I'll ask my girlfriend to come," Chuck said solemnly. "Let's compete!"

Isaac was overwhelmed, and suddenly, he looked at Chuck in wonder. "Since when did you have a girlfriend?"

"How novel!" Chuck pursed his lips, "Can't I have a girlfriend since Kenny has one?"

"What?!" Isaac's expression was even more startled.

"Is that surprising?" Kenny looked at him speechlessly, "Don't you have a fiancée yourself?"

Speaking of the incident, Isaac quickly turned pale.

"What are you talking about?" Asked Hazel curiously.

Seeing her and Joshua holding the golf clubs, Chuck continued, "We're talking about Isaac's fiancée."

"I remember her." She recalled, "She is very pretty, and she is said to be kind. Why didn't you bring her here?"

"He probably doesn't want to be responsible?" Kenny stirred up trouble.

"That you're too bad…" Hazel looked at Isaac in surprise.

"Don't listen to their nonsense!" Isaac explained peacefully, "It was arranged by our family, and I never agreed!"

"Why the rush to explain?" Chuck couldn't help but taunt him. "Are you still thinking about the engagement with Hazel?"

Hazel was drinking water, and she could not help but spit the moment she heard this.

"What?" She looked at them in surprise. "Who are you saying has an engagement to me?"

Chuck realized he spilled the beans, and Hazel had heard it, so he could not take it back. Then he looked at Joshua with some embarrassment. "I'm sorry…"

"Nothing," said Joshua lightly. "No one takes a verbal joke seriously."

"Oh..." Hazel patted her chest, looked at Isaac, and then herself. "I was scared to death!"

"What's the matter with my engagement to you?" Isaac was outraged as he was embarrassed. "Who made you the daughter of the Denmark couple? The Denmark family and the Anderson family have always had a good relationship! I went to see you when you were just born. If you had not laughed when you saw me, I would not have said that I wanted to marry you when I grew up!"

"I see!" Hazel heaved a sigh of relief. According to him, the engagement was really a joke between families, which was used to tease young Isaac.

"Even so, both of our parents agreed!" Isaac said, unconvinced.

"They agreed, but I didn't," Hazel grimaced at him. "Don't think about it anymore. I guess I must be laughing at you at that time, and you overthink!"

Isaac's face darkened. "Can't you let me lie to myself?"

"No!" Hazel said emphatically. She smiled as she looked at Joshua. No wonder Joshua was especially jealous whenever it came to Isaac. It turned out that she and Isaac had been engaged as a joke when they were young.

Joshua wore a slightly smiling face as he looked at Hazel with tenderness.

"Relax," Hazel winked and whispered in his ear. "My engagement to him was only a joke. Even if it were true, I would make sure it does not happen! I like you more than anybody else, jealous man!"

Her words reassured Joshua, but he looked a little weak when he heard her last sentence, "Huh?"

"Am I wrong?" She repressed a smile.

"You, naughty girl!" He touched her forehead lightly.

"No public display of affection!" said Isaac and others with their disgusting expressions.

After they played for a while, Hazel got up to the ladies' room; she would go in when she heard a commotion from inside.

She frowned and listened closely. One of the voices sound familiar, she opened the door slowly and peeked in, she swore under her breath.

It was Susan, Hazel impulsively turned around and was about to walk away when she heard Mandy crying.

"Bitch!" said Susan in a loud voice before slapping Mandy across the face. "Did you steal that thing? Do I treat you that horribly? You are an ungrateful thief!"

"I didn't, I didn't really…" Mandy covered her face and wept bitterly.

"You…" Susan was about to slap her again when another woman nearby said, "Luna, don't get your hands dirty. Besides, be careful not to be seen."

"Then help me!" Susan sneered. "Don't worry, I won't treat you poorly!"

"Okay!" The woman agreed happily and slapped Mandy across the face several times as she said fiercely, "Give it back to us!"
