Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

The woman brought in was none other than Mandy!

"Do you know her?" Simon's smile vanished, and he looked at Daniel with sharp eyes.

"This guy looks quite familiar," Daniel replied and chuckled before casting a glance at Hazel. "She looks really like Mrs. Denmark!"

Hazel looked at him lightly," I'm sorry, but sir, this is the first time we've met, isn't it?"

"Huh? Yes…" Daniel was a little puzzled.

"Since this is the first time that we've met, why do you say she looks quite familiar?" Hazel spoke calmly.

Daniel's face darkened somehow.

It was his first time to meet Hazel indeed. Even though Hazel always stayed with Joshua, Daniel almost saw her as a backdrop.

Besides, Hazel seldom spoke. Even though she and Joshua did whisper a few words, she really was like a backdrop.

But Daniel had never expected that when Hazel spoke to him, her words would be so terrifying!

Daniel became tense in the heart. He thought he didn't belittle Hazel from the very beginning, but not until now did he realize that he hadn't taken her seriously enough. He just saw Hazel as a woman who could rely on Joshua to live and tried every means to win over his favor, but it now appeared that this was not the case at all!

"So, Daniel, you know this woman, so even if you knew that Joshua and I were looking for her, you still deliberately sheltered her?" Simon sneered.

"No, no…" Daniel panicked and spoke. "I didn't know her, and I didn't shelter her."

"She's a guest at your hotel," Joshua spoke quietly.

"This... There are so many guests at the hotel that I can't know every one of them, can I?" said Daniel, suppressing his guilt.

Simon scoffed at his words. Joshua kept silent. It was clear that he did not agree with this reason.

"Well... I am really worried about Cynthia. Can I leave first?" Daniel spoke, somewhat flustered.

He was worried about Cynthia because he hadn't figured out yet why Cynthia ended up sleeping with a gambler after she went to Joshua's room?

He was even more afraid that if he stayed, Joshua and Simon would keep pressing him.

Joshua waved his hand calmly. Daniel fled as if he had been granted amnesty.

"You actually let him go?" Simon said with somewhat displeasure. He wanted to play a little longer.

"That's enough," Hazel said lightly. "Even if we don't ask Daniel, Mr. King should have understood the whole story."

Ted looked extremely pale. How could he possibly not understand what Hazel meant?

He trusted his butler, but the latter secretly gave Hazel an oxytocin injection, trying to drive a wedge between him and Joshua.

He introduced Cynthia to Joshua, but Cynthia only tried to bond with Joshua by sleeping with Joshua.

He trusted Daniel, but Daniel, who was well aware that the videos were fake, sheltered Mandy in private and didn't even tell him about her existence.

He always thought he knew everything, but in the end, he realized it was just a joke! Everyone was fooling and deceiving him, but he didn't know anything!

Joshua looked at Ted calmly. He could probably guess how hard it had hit Ted.

"Come on, let's get down to business," Joshua said as he waved his hand, and the two men walked forward with Mandy. "Mr. King, you must have understood it when you saw her, right? The videos are fake."

Ted looked very pale. How could he possibly not understand the story inside when he saw the face that looked exactly like Hazel's? However, if he did accept his defeat, it would represent the end of his father-son relationship with Joshua!

"Here's the medical record of her plastic surgery," Simon said, throwing the medical record right in front of Ted. "She did have plastic surgery based on Hazel's face."

"Who are you?" Ted took a deep breath. Instead of reading the medical record, he looked at Mandy and asked angrily.

Mandy's face kept changing, and suddenly she said, "My name is Mandy Carter... I confess! I confess! In fact, it's Hazel Denmark who orders me to do that!"

"!!!" Startled, all the people present looked at Mandy.

"It's either Hazel Denmark or me! After Joshua disappeared, she had sex with other men and took a video as a souvenir!" Mandy continued quickly. "But soon, Joshua came back. She was afraid that the affair would be exposed, so she went straight to me! Because I looked like hers, she asked me to have plastic surgery so that my face would look exactly like hers, and I could take the blame for her!"

"How can you take nonsense like that?" said Simon with exasperation.

Hazel was very shocked, too. She really didn't expect Mandy to shift the blame onto her in this situation!

"Simon King, even if you threaten me, I'm going to tell you the truth," Mandy said viciously. "Hazel Denmark is not that kind of pure, innocent woman that you think she is. She's just a dissolute shameless slut... Ahh!"

Joshua picked up the medical record and directly hit it in Mandy's face. The paper brushed past her face, leaving several red marks now on it.

Mandy only felt her face was scorching. She wanted to say something, but Simon had had her mouth shut.

However, when Joshua and Simon looked at Ted, they found he looked a lot more relaxed.

"Why don't you let her go on?" Ted asked.

"So, you believe the woman's nonsense?" Simon snapped.

After hesitating for a while, Ted responded by asking, "How can I not believe her words since it's you who brought the witness?"

Joshua sighed softly. He looked at Hazel and calmly spoke, "Have you seen that? With his intelligence, how could he not be deceived?"

In an instant, Ted's face turned pale as he certainly heard the sarcasm in Joshua's words!

"No," Hazel corrected his words. "He just believes what he wants to hear."

"So many people could easily fool him," Joshua agreed.

Ted was furious. But despite his displeasure, he knew Joshua and Hazel were right.

He did not want to cut ties with Joshua, so he chose to deceive himself and the others even though he had guessed the truth.

"Joshua! You're the one who said you wanted to prove Hazel's innocence, but these are not pieces of evidence at all. How can you make me believe her?" Ted becomes angry from embarrassment.

"Mr. King," said Joshua, looking at him coldly, "In that case, I have to tell you something: I have solid evidence."
