Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Chapter 1231 - 519: You’re Unwilling To Speak Up?

The rest of the bodyguards entered the room in succession, brought the four people under control, and put their clothes on them.

Joshua had a few chairs changed. After all, everything in the room seemed extremely filthy to him.

Joshua sat down in a chair with Hazel in his arms. He gently pinched her fingers and said softly, "Hazel, don't ever do anything like that again."

"I don't like the way he looks at me," Hazel said angrily.

When she perceived Mr. Lee's gaze, she directly took a pen out of the pocket of Joshua's suit and hit him in the eye.

She hit him very accurately and cleverly. It would only make his eyes ache but would not really cause any serious injury.

"Leave it to me," Joshua whispered. "Such people are not worth getting your hands dirty."

Harry and Rachel at the side had mixed feelings. Seeing their own daughter so close to another man made their hearts somewhat jealous. But with Joshua doting on Hazel, it seemed they should be glad they were on good terms.

Matt's family was so frightened that they cowered in the corner silently.

Only Fanny looked at Hazel with reluctance and hatred. It was the first time she had met Joshua. She could still tell at a glance that she and Joshua were not from the same world. But why did he choose Hazel?

Although she knew Hazel had a good husband, she had no idea that Hazel's husband would be so handsome and would spoil Hazel to such an extent. Fanny hated Hazel even more at the thought of her own misfortune!

Mr. Lee was kind of sensible. He could see that Joshua was tough. But the more he looked at Joshua, the more he was horrified. Is this man the bigwig?

"Come on, what's the matter?" Joshua opened his mouth coolly. "Why did you drug my wife?"

He had already investigated the whole thing, but he needed Matt's family to personally tell Hazel's parents what they had been up to.

Matt's family looked at each other. At this time, they could see that Joshua was somebody. But how would Harry's family forgive them if they honestly told them what they had done?

Moreover, although Joshua was in the dominant position, they had always been short-sighted, so they could not tell which was stronger, Mr. Lee or Joshua. They did not know which side they should choose.

"You are unwilling to speak up?" Joshua's eyes were slightly cold. "Rest assured, you will speak soon."

As Joshua said, it didn't take long for them to wait.

Ronald took Scott to enter the room.

"Scott!" Matt's and Emma's faces changed dramatically as they became very panic-stricken instantly. "Didn't I tell you to hide? Why do you come out?"

Ronald pushed Scott directly in front of them.

"Mom, Dad, I really don't want to hide anymore. It's so hot in that place, and there's no air conditioning. I get prickly heat all over. Besides, I can't order takeaway, I can't go out, I can only have instant noodles. I live a very hard life..." Scott kept complaining.

While speaking, he directly began to make a scene and rolled on the ground. "I just went to gamble and accidentally lost only a million dollars. Didn't you say you would repay the debt for me? Why haven't you repaid it? Are you my own parents or not? Do you really want the people of the casino to cut off my hand? Won't you regret it?"

Hearing Scott's complaint, Harry and Rachel understood the whole story, and they became angrier.

It looked like Scott got addicted to gambling, and lost a million dollars, then he was threatened by the casino, so Matt hid him. In order to pay off the gambling debt, they decided to make use of Hazel.

"Matt Crowe!" Harry was trembling with anger. "Your son owes a million dollars, so you want to sell my daughter to pay off the gambling debt for you?! You, you..."

Harry had always been polite and wasn't capable of swearing at all. Now, he was so pissed off that he was out of breath.

Rachel was even angrier than he was, but she knew Harry was the saddest. She was angry because these people plotted against her baby girl. However, for Harry, these people were his relatives, he couldn't possibly have any feelings for them, even if he shouted he wanted to cut ties with them.

"No, it's not the truth!" Matt panicked. He wasn't afraid of Harry, but he was afraid of Joshua. Joshua was actually able to take Scott here. It was clearly his threat. Matt could ignore his wife and his daughter, but he couldn't ignore his son!

"Brother, you must believe me. Hazel is also my niece, how can I harm her? I, I... I was forced!" Matt made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and pointed directly at Mr. Lee. "It's him! He had a crush on Hazel and used Scott as a threat to force our family to act as matchmakers for him! Brother, believe me. I don't want to, but I have no other option…."

As he spoke, Matt crawled in Harry's direction while crying. Emma knew what he meant and echoed.

The bodyguards directly stopped them and Scott, who was ready to make a scene.

In a second, Mr. Lee was furious. He had recognized Joshua, so he was afraid to talk nonsense, but now Matt and the others actually put the blame on him?

"You bastard, say it again!" Mr. Lee swore at them.

"Brother, look, he threatens us again!" Matt pretended to be frightened.

"Master Denmark, don't believe him!" Mr. Lee directly abandoned them and explained to Joshua anxiously, "It was their family that came to me and told me that they had a lost daughter, who was a young, beautiful, and highly educated female college student. They would marry her to me as my second wife. They also showed me her photo, and their purpose was to get money! I couldn't figure out why they wanted so much money. It turns out they want to pay off their son's gambling debts!"

"Nonsense..."

Harry's eyes went cold as he watched them fight. Now his heart was not very angry, and he was not even disappointed. It was just that he thought his own care for Matt's family was a joke.

"I'll leave it to you, Joshua," Harry said wearily. "No matter how you do with them, I'll have no objection."

Joshua nodded, and his eyes turned deep.

"Let's go," Harry said to Rachel.

Rachel knew that Harry meant that the affairs of Matt's family had nothing to do with him. This time he really cut ties with Matt's family.

She let out a sigh. "Okay."
