Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

The candid photos were quickly sent to Madeline's email.

Madeline couldn't wait to pick out some photos in which Simon and Hazel were close before rushing to Ted's room.

Ted had just coaxed Stacy into sleeping. When Madeline came, disgust could not help but rise in his heart. But in the end, he let her in.

Madeline showed Ted all the pictures and said with indignation, "... Uncle Ted, look at these pictures! After Joshua disappeared, Hazel soon forgets about Joshua and is in love with someone else, Joshua's brother!

Although she and Joshua didn't have a wedding, they did get a marriage license, and she is Simon's sister-in-law. But as a sister-in-law, she actually seduces her brother-in-law. How shameless this woman is..."

Ted frowned unhappily.

He had been ready to feign death but happened to run into Stacy and Joshua, who fell into the sea. After he rescued them, his dead heart was invigorated by the presence of Stacy.

Even without the organization, Ted still had a lot of properties. In the end, he took Stacy and Joshua to a manor in Country M.

There happened to be a doctor of great medical skill in Ted's men. Joshua was shot in the head, but thankfully, the bullet which went through his skin bounced out after hitting his skull because of the angle.

So Joshua's injury seemed very serious but was not as fatal. Having said that, the gunshot left Joshua in a coma for a long time because there was congestion in his brain. When Joshua woke up, he forgot everything.

Ted allowed Madeline to stay to accompany Joshua because Ted had to take care of Stacy and was worried that there wasn't a suitable person to take care of Joshua.

However, Ted didn't expect Madeline to be so restless. Even at the manor, she kept an eye on Hazel in Country Z, occasionally snitching on Hazel.

Ted could see through Madeline's little tricks, but he also disliked Hazel.

Although he didn't believe Madeline, it was true that both of his sons liked Hazel. Thinking Joshua and Simon almost fell out over a woman, Ted hated Hazel very much.

What was more, after Joshua's disappearance, Hazel directly ceased to be faithful and fell in love with Simon, which made him feel that she was unfeeling and selfish.

"Enough, put them away," Ted said indifferently. "How's Joshua?"

"... He has completely recovered." Madeline added, regretfully putting away the pictures, "but he still can't remember what happened in the past. The doctor said that when the blood clots on his brain disappear, maybe he can get his memory back. But..."

"But what?" Ted frowned.

"But it's also possible… that he will lose his memory forever. The very thought of it makes me sad for Joshua." Madeline squeezed out a few tears to pretend she felt sad for Joshua, but in fact, she was tremendously happy and hoped that Joshua would never get his memory back.

After being taken to the manor by Ted, she was actually able to stay with Joshua and take care of Joshua. Every time she thought of it, she was extremely happy! Besides, Joshua had lost his memory. Although he was not very close to her, at least he did not reject her as before!

Madeline had been waiting for the day when Joshua would be moved by her tenderness. She didn't believe Joshua would never have feelings for her after staying together for a long time.

"It's not a bad thing for him if he can't get the memory back," Ted whispered. At least, if Joshua remembered what had happened before, Joshua might not get along well with him now.

Ted instructed, "Enough, ask Joshua to come here."

An alarm went off in Madeline's mind. She braced herself against her fear of him and asked bravely, "Uncle Ted... May I ask what you want to talk to Joshua about? Are you going to… ask him to bring Simon back?"

There was a flash of disgust in Ted's eyes about how he wanted to throw this troublesome woman out! But then he furrowed his brows slightly.

Joshua had been completely cured, so Ted did intend to ask Joshua to Country Z to bring Simon back. Ted thought his family had been separated for so long that it was time to reunite.

Nonetheless, he only mentioned it to Joshua and didn't tell anyone. How did Madeline know about it? Could it be that during her time with Joshua, the two of them had developed such a relationship that they could talk about everything?

Ted didn't know he was completely mistaken. Joshua had never told Madeline about that. It was just that Madeline overheard their conversation accidentally. Ted had been so focused on Stacy lately that he didn't notice Madeline's eavesdropping.

Madeline was distraught when she saw Ted keep silent, so she said eagerly, "Uncle Ted if you really want Joshua to go to Country Z, let me go with him! Although he gets better, there should always be a familiar person to take care of him, right? Besides, he has forgotten everything, so it would be too strange for him to return to Country Z. If I'm with him, I can also help him. Most importantly..."

With an evil glint in her eye, she spoke, "Simon would unnecessarily obey Joshua now. If Joshua thinks of something, they might start fighting again for Hazel. What if the two brothers fall out? If I follow Joshua, I can persuade them."

She knew exactly what Ted cared about. The last thing he wanted to see was his sons fighting each other, which was also his weakness. As long as she mentioned it, she was sure Ted would give her permission to follow Joshua.

Ted paled. Madeline had her own intended plan, but what she said was exactly what he was worried about.

"I'll think about it," Ted said in a deep tone.

She didn't get a positive answer, but Madeline knew she had succeeded.

A few days later, Joshua took Madeline to leave the manor and flew straight to Country Z.

Arriving at the Imperial Capital, Joshua felt everything was familiar to him somehow.

"Joshua…"

A faint call suddenly rang in Joshua's ear. He froze, and he felt for some reason that someone was waiting for him.

"Dad!"

Suddenly, a little kid like a piece of dough, who was about three years old, clutched Joshua's leg.
