Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Joshua and Hazel should naturally dance the opening dance of the party. When they finished, the audience heartily applauded. The two of them really looked like a perfect match. Even if they just stood together, they were a feast for the eyes.

Hazel's cheeks blushed slightly. Suddenly, she looked over the crowd and saw the Crowe family in the rest area.

"My parents..." Hazel said in a low voice.

"Let's go," Joshua whispered, holding her hand.

She nodded. But before they could reach the rest area, suddenly, a woman stopped in front of them.

"Miss Crowe, Master Joshua..." When the woman looked at Joshua, her eyes were full of wild enthusiasm.

Joshua's behavior tonight made almost all the women at the party adore him. After all, no matter how much a man loved a woman, he couldn't give her all he had.

But Joshua could do that and did that. Even though he was originally the adopted son of the Denmark family and the Denmark Group had already belonged to him completely, when he gave everything to Hazel, he wasn't hesitant at all.

How could a woman not like a man who could do everything for the woman he loved? What was more, Joshua never relied on Denmark Group but on his own ability.

Of course, Hazel saw the adoration in the woman's eyes. She asked in surprise. "Do we know each other?"

She actually thought this woman looked a little familiar. Could it be that they had met before?

"I'm Bonny Young, and we met once," Bonny said with an ingratiating smile. "It's just a pity that last time, that bitch Katie Shawn drove a wedge between us and made me get you wrong…."

When Bonny said that, Hazel suddenly understood and remembered that the last time when she was shopping for a dress, they met and had a conflict. Bonny was next to Katie at that time. When Joshua knew it, he sent invitations to all those women.

"You are her friend, then?" Joshua asked indifferently.

"No, how can I be Katie Shawn's friend?" Bonny denied quickly.

But Joshua didn't give her a chance to explain. He opened his mouth coldly, "Since you are Katie Shawn's friend, you are not welcome at today's party, please leave."

"Master Joshua, I..."

Bonny was so worried that she wanted to say something, but the bodyguards directly drove her out.

Hazel was taken aback. By the time she came to her senses, Bonny and those women with Katie Shawn were all driven out by the bodyguards.

Hazel was in a trance. She said after pondering for a while, "I got it. These women were asked to leave because of their identities as Katie's friend, and they will surely blame Katie for this. Is that why you sent them away?"

"No," Joshua said dryly, "they're not qualified."

"Then why?" she asked curiously.

"I invited them for I only wanted them to know who you are. Why shall we allow them to stay now that my purpose has been served?" he said calmly.

"..." Hazel didn't know whether to laugh or cry because his statement sounded so reasonable. She had thought he deliberately set Katie up, but the truth was that neither Katie nor her friends were qualified to make Joshua pay much attention.

When they arrived at the rest area where the Crowe family were, Hazel embraced Rachel happily. "Mom, you look so beautiful today!"

Rachel looked a bit uncomfortable. She looked around and said aloof, "Behave yourself!"

Hazel looked a little stunned. However, soon she understood.

It was her party, but her parents were worried that they would do something wrong, so they stayed in the corner, afraid of doing something that would embarrass Hazel.

Hazel's heart warmed slightly. The Crowe family brought her up. They were her family all the time. This was not something to be ashamed of.

She took Rachel's hand and said of her own accord, "Mom, I'll introduce you to some people..."

With that, she walked up to Grandpa Anderson with the Crowe family.

Rachel and Harry were a little hesitant, but Hazel's determined attitude made it impossible for them to say no.

Joshua had planned to follow, but suddenly his eyes spotted something in the crowd, and his face darkened slightly.

He called his bodyguards to come and ordered them in a low voice. Then the bodyguard grabbed a man looking furtive from the crowd and threw him out of the party.

Soon, a middle-aged man came to him with a frightened face. "Master Joshua, please let my son go!"

Joshua gave him a cold look. It was Hanson Bryant, who had once harassed Hazel, was just taken out by the bodyguards, and now Hanson's father, Director Bryant of Denmark Group, was pleading with him.

"Director Bryant," Joshua looked at him casually, "I remember when I saved your son last time, I said either you send him away, or I would send him away."

Director Bryant went white as a sheet. Some time ago, Hanson met Simon and was taken away and severely tortured by Simon. At that time, he asked Joshua for help, and Joshua asked him to agree to this condition.

He did agree, but Hanson was, after all, his son, and the Bryant family's business was here. How could he be willing to send Hanson abroad?

So, with a fluke mind, he sneaked in with Hanson. He was hoping to find Hazel and ask her for help. After all, Hazel now called the shots at Denmark Group. Unfortunately, he didn't find Hazel at all and was stopped by Joshua.

Joshua said coldly, "Since Director Bryant isn't willing to do that, then it must be done by me…."

"No, no, no!" Director Bryant wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, making up his mind, "I'll see him off, rest assured!"

With that, he hurried to walk out of the party to look for Hanson.

Joshua's eyes were slightly darker. Even though Director Bryant had promised, Hanson had been so spoiled that he might not be able to control Hanson.

Hanson, who was being carried by the bodyguards, shouted crossly, "Do you know who I am? Let go of me! I need to meet Hazel! I want to meet her. Surely she can't be so heartless... Mmmm!"

The bodyguards, of course, wouldn't listen to him. Hearing him mention Hazel, they even directly covered his mouth. Eventually, Hanson was thrown out of the party by them.

Hanson was so angry that he wanted to rush inside, but he became a coward instantly when he saw the bodyguards from a distance.

"Are you Master Bryant?"

Suddenly, a sweet voice came from a corner. Hanson froze. He followed the voice and looked back to find Katie hiding in a corner.

"Aren't you that idiot girl?" asked Hanson, with somewhat impatience.

Katie's eyes flashed with an evil light. "Master Bryant, aren't you getting kicked out too? In fact, we can cooperate!"
