Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

"Hazel, how can you say that?!" Matt was very angry. "Either way, we're your elders. How can you treat your elders like that?"

"Yeah," Emma echoed. "I know you thought we owed money to you and were unwilling to pay it back, but we forgot to pay it back at that time, and we didn't do that on purpose. You asked us for money during the Christmas season, not caring about our relationship as relatives. Did we say anything at that time? Didn't we pay it back soon?"

Hazel was furious in the heart. Matt and his family were shameless as usual.

They clearly owed money to the Crowe family, but the couple meant that the Crowe family shouldn't ask them to pay it back! Moreover, the couple didn't pay it back of their own accord, did they?

Hazel remembered that some of the hoodlum guys pestered Scott, and Matt and his family members dared not to call the police because they got something on Scott, so they wanted Rachel to help them to deal with it. But the two families had already been at odds, so Matt had to pay it back.

Later, Hazel heard from Joshua that it was Joshua who planned it on the sly. Matt and Emma were really shameless to the extreme; they even had the nerve to talk about this matter?

However, Hazel had really underestimated the Matt family's ability to be thick-skinned.

After Matt scolded Hazel, he finally felt he saved face as an elder. He complacently continued, "Hazel, you've been spoiled by your parents and have been impolite since you're a kid, but your aunt and I are the only people who don't criticize you for it. We have been thinking of you as soon as something good happens…."

"You can leave that kinds of good things to your own family," said Rachel, her face cold. "Our Hazel doesn't need that!"

If she hadn't been injured, Matt, who was a relative of theirs, came in the name of visiting her, and thus she couldn't offend him openly, otherwise she would have directly kicked the family out.

"Sister-in-law," Emma said unhappily, "isn't what we do for Hazel's own good? For your own good? Look, you're injured in hospital, but it's so difficult for Hazel to come back to visit you. If that comes true, she can stay with you all the time and live a rich life. She can also help you when some accidents take place in your family to do at home, can't she?"

"What do you want exactly?" Hazel asked, frowning. She wouldn't believe that Matt and his family members would really do something good to her, but she didn't want them to continue pestering Rachel anymore.

"That's a good thing, Hazel," Emma all smiled. "Since you've graduated from college now, you should get married. It so happens we have recently met a big boss. He's in the prime of life and very rich, too. He is handsome, although he is a little fat. He is Mr. Right of that kind of little girl like you! If you marry him, you won't have to earn any money in your whole life. You just need to spend money freely as his wife. Look, how kind your uncle and I are to you?"

Hazel's eyes twitched. Given Emma's nature, 'in the prime of life' meant the man was in his forties or fifties or even old, and 'a little fat' likely meant he was very fat. Emma didn't even mention any aspects of this man but only said he was very rich. It was very likely that the man had lots of shortcomings except for being rich. Otherwise, Emma had praised him for being a divine being!

Her uncle's family was really "kind" to her! During the Christmas season, they failed to push her into the abyss of suffering. Were they going to do it again, this time? No wonder Rachel was so furious when she was outside the door. How could Rachel not be angry about this?

"Well, aunt, you may as well marry him yourself!" Hazel said coldly, suppressing her anger, "You're so young and so beautiful. You fit perfectly with the Mr. Right who you're talking about."

"You, you..." How could Emma not hear Hazel's sarcasm? She snapped, "You rude wench!"

"Try to curse here again!" Rachel paled and sat up, glaring at Emma.

Emma shivered with fear. Emma was afraid of this sister-in-law because of Rachel's profession. After Rachel glared at her, she instantly forgot what she was going to say.

Matt was very dissatisfied that his wife was so useless. But in fact… he was also a little scared of Rachel himself. If they had just come here to act as a matchmaker for Hazel, they would have walked away, but this wasn't their sole reason why they came. They must not fail this time!

"Don't be angry, Rachel, Emma has such a bad temper," Matt smile apologetically. "but Hazel is spoiled by you. You're so protective of her like this. Aren't you afraid she'll lose her temper and suffer at her husband's house?"

"Ye, yeah, Rachel, I want to be good to Hazel, don't I?" Emma immediately apologized, but something suddenly seemed to occur to her, and she was astonished and asked, "Hazel, is it because you have a boyfriend at school that you're unwilling to say yes?"

Hazel felt more unhappy. "Even if I have a boyfriend, what does it matter to you?"

"No! No way!" Matt and Emma said, shouted in unison.

Hazel looked at them in surprise and then said with a half-smile, "Uncle, society advocates free love. Men and women are free to fall in love. Besides, I have parents, you don't have the right to decide anything for me, do you?"

She was already very unkind, making Matt and his wife paled terribly. However, although they were angry, they did not leave in exasperation.

"Hazel, we don't mean to decide for you," Emma smiled apologetically. "We're your elders, is it possible that we want to ruin you? Come to think of it, the boyfriend you found in college has no money, no job or house.

"Do you want to live a poor life with him in your whole life? Even if he makes a fortune in the future, you'll be old at that time. He'll definitely cheat on you and go to pretty little girls. Are you going to waste your best youth on him?"

Hazel was so pissed off by them that she almost laughed. These two people were obviously up to no good, but they actually had the nerve to speak so grandly!

Her eyes flashed a hint of sarcasm. "Then do uncle and aunt mean I should be obediently sold by you?"

"Yes... Hey, you kid, why do you always think we're going to hurt you?!" Matt was angry from embarrassment.
