Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

"Send it to me," Joshua spoke in a deep voice.

If it were just a simple video, Jaxson wouldn't have specially called him. Moreover, it was supposed to be early in the morning in Country Z, but Jaxson got up so early. Hence, it must be very serious.

Jaxson was still a little worried. "Mr. President, I've had this video analyzed. This is definitely faked and can't be true. When you watch the video, don't get angry. I will have the results analyzed as soon as possible…."

"Jaxson, send me the video." Joshua looked even more solemn.

Since it could make Jaxson so nervous, Joshua was more eager to know what on earth the video was about.

The video was quickly emailed. Joshua turned on his computer and clicked the email.

Hazel came close. "What are you watching?"

Joshua had clicked the video. Then the noise of a man and woman making love sounded on the computer.

In an instant, Joshua turned his head around, embarrassed. "Nothing..."

He had never expected that Jaxson would send him a video like this. Now Hazel had heard and seen it. Joshua felt it was very difficult for him to explain.

Joshua was about to turn it off when Hazel stopped him. "Wait!"

He paused. When he glanced at the computer screen, his face changed slightly.

The video did show a man and a woman making love, but at first glance, the woman looked almost exactly like Hazel.

It wasn't just the face. When the camera swept over the woman's chest, it could be clearly seen that there was also a five-petal plum blossom birthmark on her chest!

Hazel froze. She was pretty sure the woman wasn't her! However, both the face and the birthmark on the chest looked exactly like hers, which made even Hazel unable to tell them apart!

"It's not me!" Hazel exclaimed in amazement.

"I know." Joshua's eyes were glued to the screen. Then, suddenly, he pressed the pause button, and the woman's face froze.

"It's really not me…" "Hazel said weakly. The face on the screen was so similar to hers. Even though Hazel knew the woman was not her, she felt her words weren't convincing somehow.

Joshua came to his senses and looked at Hazel, realizing that he might have made her misunderstand.

"Come here." Joshua put his hand around her waist and held her in his arms. His mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners as he whispered in her ears, "Hazel, I know it's not you. You have a better figure."

Although he met Hazel when she was pregnant, no one knew more about Hazel's body than Joshua, who knew how amazing Hazel's body was.

Even if he didn't fully remember their past, he did think of Hazel's previous body the moment he touched her body.

Hazel beat his chest with shame and exasperation. "Do you pause just to watch her body?"

"No." Joshua stopped smiling and said in a serious voice. "Look. Don't you think she seems familiar?"

Hazel looked at the screen. How could she be unfamiliar with a face so similar to hers?

Suddenly, Hazel froze.

Although the face and hers were almost the same, they were not the same. Hazel found the contour of the two faces was different. Indeed, as Joshua said, she was also vaguely familiar.

"A person can't make her face become so similar through a facelift in a short period of time." Joshua mused, frowning. "Also, it doesn't look like her birthmark was temporarily tattooed."

"Birthmark?" Hazel stared at the screen in astonishment. Then a light flashed through her mind.

Birthmark instantly reminded her of a name.

"I think I know who she is," Hazel said in a deep tone.

"Mandy Wilson?" Joshua asked, chin in hand.

"You think of it?" Hazel looked at him in surprise.

"Not all the past, but I have some impressions," said Joshua, with a slight twinkle in his eye. "I thought of her in the first place when I was wondering who would pretend to be you like this. By the way, do you know anything about her current situation?"

Shaking her head, Hazel recalled, "Mandy Wilson killed one person. Later she went to jail, but I don't know her specific situation."

"I'll ask Jaxson to investigate her." Joshua took out his phone and dialed.

Jaxson answered the phone soon. On the other end, he said nervously, "Mr. President, the technology department is still analyzing…."

"No need, the video is real," Joshua interrupted.

"It isn't..." Jaxson, who was always calm, was worried. "The video must be fake. Mrs. Denmark wouldn't do that..."

"... When did I say it was Hazel?" Joshua was speechless.

Jaxson froze. He asked in astonishment, "The woman in the video isn't Mrs. Denmark? Then who is that?"

"It's Mandy Wilson." Joshua's eyes went deep. "You check to see if she's still in prison."

"All right, I'll go now!" Jaxson breathed a sigh of relief and hastily agreed.

When he saw the video, he was terrified as he was afraid that it would affect the relationship between Joshua and Hazel. But now, it seemed that he had thought too much. Even if Joshua lost his memory, Joshua was calmer than he was.

"Wait a minute," Joshua said to him helplessly. "Check the source of the video, and control its spread."

"Don't worry, Mr. President," Jaxson calmed down and said coolly. "I've arranged for someone to check the source. In addition, the video was posted in the early hours of the morning, so we controlled its spread very quickly, and few people have watched it."

Joshua nodded and hung up.

Cynthia and Daniel also quickly received the message that the video had not been successfully spread.

"How is that possible?" Cynthia was very furious. "No, I must find more media…."

"Forget it, Cynthia." Daniel opened his mouth.

"What do you mean?" Cynthia asked in anger.

"It's obviously because the video has been controlled that it can't spread, and in Country Z, only Denmark Group could do that. So even if you go to other media, it won't help, "Daniel analyzed. "Our goal is just to let Joshua know that. He must have seen the video, so we should stop now."
