Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Hazel turned to look at Ariel and Summer.

"I can go by myself. You don't have to accompany me. You can go back to the dorm." She said as she squeezed Ariel's wrist. She looked at Hazel strangely, but she had already got in the car. She only hoped that Ariel would find the mark she had left.

Simon was uncertain that he would be able to get her into the car, but she didn't want to involve her friends. He got in the car and pulled away from University Q.

"What good is it to be with Joshua?" Simon looked at her with disgust. He took out a first aid kit from the dashboard of the car. "You were so eager to get back to him. I thought he loved you, but you are being bullied, isolated, and even beaten. Is that how he shows his love?"

"This has nothing to do with you!" Hazel said impatiently.

"I know, you like to be abused and not to be petted?" Simon smiled, he wanted to make her angry.

Hazel looked at him coldly and said nothing. She did want to say something, but she was still in shock. She couldn't begin to understand how Simon was even in Country Z, never mind how or why he showed up out of nowhere at her school.

She was scared and fearful of Simon, she assumed that once she and Joshua returned home, she would not have to see him again. It hadn't been very long since they arrived home, and Simon had already shown up.

Simon took out an alcohol swab and reached over to help Hazel wipe the blood off of her face, but before he had a chance, she grabbed his hand.

"I will do it by myself." Hazel snapped at him.

"Sweetheart, can't you give me a chance to be a gentleman?"

"Give you a chance to wipe the alcohol into my eyes?" Hazel said sarcastically.

If it had been anyone but Simon who tried to help her, she would have let them, but with him, she needed to be on constant alert. There was a mirror on the car's sun visor that Hazel used to wipe off the blood.

"I have never helped anyone with a wound before," Simon said with a smile.

"You are the first one, sweetheart, you should be honored."

Hazel looked at him indifferently, she did not want to give him any sense of recognition. It was clear that the more he thought she cared, the happier he would be.

"Sweetheart, I don't think you aren't the daughter of the Denmark family. Instead of being bullied like this, you should be with me. I will help you to deal with the evil people who bully you!"

He saw that Hazel was ignoring him, Simon said, "Don't you believe me? Sweetheart, then I will let you see that I can give you more."

The car stopped at a corner near the school. Hazel was thinking about how she could escape, but she paused when she saw Kyla and her friends standing on the corner.

They looked terrified and panicked because Simon's people were holding their arms tightly. Kyla wondered if it was Joshua who had sent someone after them but then realized it couldn't have been, the person had said that Joshua has begun to hate Hazel and didn't care if she died.

"Are those the ones who have been bullying you?" Simon put his hand on his chin. "You don't want revenge?"

"They are a group of people who take money to do things. Why would I want revenge?" Hazel said coldly.

"Sweetheart," Simon looked at her, somewhat dissatisfied. "When you faced me, you were not afraid of anything. Why have you become such a coward since you returned home?"

"The situation with them is my business. There is no reason for you to take care of it." Hazel said impatiently.

"You don't want me to handle it, but I still have to." Simon smiled. "There is someone there who didn't take the money and wants to harass you, correct deliberately? Just watch, I will make her pay the price!"

Outside the car, Simon's men received a signal, they released all of the group except Kyla. By the expressions on the group's faces, Hazel could see that Simon's men had said something before they put down a basket of rocks. The people who were supposed to be Kyla's friends picked up the rocks and threw them at her.

Kyla quickly covered her head, but the rocks still left a lot of cuts and bruises all over her body. One rock hit her hard on the forehead, and she became more terrified.

She looked over at the car that Hazel was in, she took a chance to run toward it and quickly knocked on the window.

"Joshua, I know it is my fault! I shouldn't bully Hazel. I shouldn't find people to bully her, but someone made me do it! I really am innocent! You may not know it, but Hazel is a slut. When she was at school, she was in a relationship with several men. She had so many boyfriends, and she lied to you about it!"

Simon was sitting in the car laughing, but he had a nasty expression on his face. He put the window down and gave Kyla a cold look. "Your words are convincing. If I were Joshua, I would probably let you go."

Kyla was overjoyed, but she hadn't had time to be happy. She saw the extravagant evil smile of Simon. "It's a pity that I am not him, and I hate being mistaken for someone else!"

It was as if Kyla was on a roller coaster, she was on the downhill slope. She asked cautiously, "Who are you?"

"I?" Simon smiled happily. He reached out and put his hand on Hazel's shoulder. "I am one of the sweetheart boyfriends."

Kyla's face suddenly became sadder, and she was anxious. "Hazel, you really..."

Before she could finish begging Hazel for help, Simon's men pulled her away from the window and slapped her face.

"Do you dare to let me hear another sentence of you insulting my sweetheart?" Simon looked at her and radiated a dangerous aura.

Kyla's eyes were full of horror. She was now convinced that a man who was so dangerous in front of her was not Joshua.

"Let her go," Hazel said.

"Sweetheart, why are you so disappointed?" Simon was very dissatisfied. "I didn't know, you were so kind."

"I have said that I want her to be released," Hazel gave him a look. "But, I have questions to ask her before she runs."

Simon waved his hand, and his men let go of Kyla, even if she wanted to run, she couldn't, she was too scared to move.

"Who made you trouble me?" Hazel asked quietly.

When Kyla made a claim before, Hazel was paying attention.
