Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

"Let me have a look!" Ariel took the phone away and tutted. "This woman is really good at publicity, she is actually claiming to be connected to Prince Charming! Hazel, why don't you get the Prince Charming to ban her?"

"I don't think so," Hazel said, her lips twitching. "There're so many women advertising by mentioning Joshua Denmark. Can I ask Joshua to ban them all?"

"Yeah, it's going to be forgotten in a while, and there's no need to hype her up." Summer agreed.

"I'm just saying." Ariel stuck out her tongue.

Hazel wasn't concerned about Susan, she had her problems.

***

Hazel promised Joshua that she would continue to be his secretary. She knew it was a scam just because Joshua wanted to make it easier for her to learn everything about Denmark Group.

When Hazel arrived at Denmark Group, she did not even have time to walk in the door before someone stopped her.

"Are you Joshua's girlfriend?" Susan looked at her up and down, a little haughty. "You can't deny it. I've had your ID checked."

Hazel looked at her warily. "Who are you?"

She didn't pay much attention to celebrities, and Susan was wearing big sunglasses and a mask over her mouth. Her face was almost completely covered. Hazel didn't recognize her at all.

"Me." Susan removed her sunglasses and quickly put them on.

Hazel shook her head. "I don't know you."

Susan became furious instantly, so she took off the mask as well and said in disbelief, "How could you not know me? I'm very famous these days!"

"But I really don't know you." Hazel looked more blankly. Then she asked a passer-by, "Do you know her?"

Susan let out a scream and hurriedly put on her sunglasses and mask.

"No." The passer-by shook his head and walked away.

Susan's face turned very sullen, and she gave Hazel an angry stare. She didn't believe that Hazel didn't know her. In her opinion, Hazel was deliberately humiliating her!

"Who the hell are you?" Asked Hazel, she could feel Susan's hostility through her sunglasses.

"I'm Susan!" Susan gritted her teeth in anger. "Do you know now?"

Hazel frowned. Wasn't that the name Ariel mentioned as a sleazy actress? However, why was Susan looking for her?

"We don't know each other, do we? Why are you looking for me?" Hazel asked. She never thought she'd run into Susan so quickly and that she would come on her own accord.

"I want to talk to you," Susan said with a smug smile.

"Sorry, I'm not free." Hazel quietly walked past her.

"You...!" Susan was fuming. Why did Hazel walk away without asking her? She hurried to catch up with her, "It's about Joshua! Don't you read the entertainment news? You really don't care about my relationship with Joshua?"

Hazel stopped abruptly. She is looking straight at Susan, who had undisguised smugness on her face.

"I don't care. Are you satisfied?" Saying that Hazel left.

Susan was livid with anger. She even doubted whether Hazel was really Joshua's girlfriend? Who wouldn't care about their boyfriends' gossip? Hazel must be fooling her!

At the thought of this, Susan got even angrier and directly caught up with Hazel. "I'm Joshua's cousin!"

Hazel was caught off guard and stopped. She was completely shocked.

Was Susan really Joshua's cousin? That would also mean the woman in front of her was probably her cousin?

"Can we talk now?" There was full of arrogance in Susan's eyes.

Hazel agreed with Ariel's words. Susan's acting was so bad that she couldn't even hide her emotions.

"Okay." She agreed. She didn't want to talk about Joshua but wanted to know what kind of person Susan was precise with because, after all, she was her cousin.

Susan's gaze smugly swept over a nearby corner where a man was hiding and taking photos secretly.

They went to a nearby coffee shop. When they entered a private room, Susan took off all her sunglasses and mask.

"Did you say you were Joshua's cousin?" When Hazel looked at her, she didn't feel any kinship, but just awkwardness. Additionally, she sensed that Susan had hostility toward her.

"Yes," Susan said. "My mother and his mother were sisters. Why, didn't Joshua tell you?"

It turned out that her mother was the daughter that Joseph had adopted, but Joshua didn't really tell her about Susan.

Susan was even more pleased by her silence. "Oh, right, it's our family business. How could he tell you, an outsider?"

Hazel's eyebrows were slightly raised. Why did she think Susan's hostility towards her was as a love rival? Was it her imagination, or did Susan take a fancy to Joshua?

She could not help shaking her head and tried to drive the absurd idea out.

"I have a great relationship with Joshua," Susan continued, "We met when we were kids, and he took good care of me..."

"Isn't it right for a brother to look after a younger sister?" Hazel interrupted peacefully. "I'm sorry, I have to go to work, and if you have nothing else to say, I think it's time for me to leave."

Seeing she didn't want to listen to her anymore, Susan felt as if her sudden blow had hit the air, Hazel did not care.

"Hazel, you're not going to face reality!"

"What reality?" Hazel's eyes turned a little cold. She had nothing to do with Susan, and there were no feelings between them. Even if Susan was her blood sister, she wouldn't like her.

"Tell you what! Joshua and I are not really cousins. We have no blood relation!" Susan shouted.

"So what?" Hazel looked at her sarcastically. "What do you want to say? Do you want to say that you like each other or that he likes you?"

"You..." Susan was so irritated that she couldn't speak. Why wasn't Hazel surprised and concerned at all?

Hazel continued indifferently, "Let me guess, are you going to say I'm not good enough for Joshua and force me to leave him? How much is the check that you will offer me?"

"You are really with him for money!" There was a flash of contempt in Susan's eyes.

"What I am for is not important, what matters is what price you can offer," said Hazel.
