Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Who gave you permission to track Hazel?" said Joshua bitterly.

Susan was stunned, was he making a mistake and blaming her?

"Joshua, don't you understand? Hazel is dating two men at the same time. Even if you are angry, you should be angry with her. Why are you angry with me?" Susan was feeling anxious.

"You don't have to worry about a thing with Hazel," Joshua said in a deep voice. "Susan, my tolerance is limited, and if you dare to do anything to Hazel, do not blame me if something happens to you!"

Susan felt a chill come from Joshua's tone, she was so scared that she almost dropped her phone. Joshua was not kidding, and she could feel it, she was distraught. How could this be?

Joshua hung up on her, she was so annoyed that she threw the phone down on the table, shouting angrily, "Joshua has a problem, obviously Hazel has betrayed him, and he is mad at me?! He is so unreasonable!"

Mandy was sitting on the sofa and said nothing. How could Susan think that Joshua liked her? She couldn't help but politely say, "Luna, I think Joshua likes Hazel quite a lot. Of course, if you send him those things, he will be angry…"

"You are right." Susan nodded in agreement. Mandy was amazed. Did she actually persuade this spoiled girl?

However, Susan's next sentence snapped her back to reality.

"Joshua is still interested in Hazel, and he is sure to defend her," Susan continued. "And I sent him those photos. He must have thought that I was nosy, so he was angry. After all, he is a man, even if his lover is deceiving him, it is enough to make him disrespectful. Not to mention that he likes me, and I was the one who sent them to him."

Mandy was speechless, there was no saving Susan. In the end, how dumb was she to actually believe that Joshua liked her?

"He is telling me that what he needs is an elegant and understanding partner who knows things, not a jealous woman. Do you agree with me?" Susan looked at Mandy.

"... right," Mandy answered against her heart, she knew she had no option but to try and please her.

Susan still wanted to speak, but her phone rang. She pressed the answer button, and the voice suddenly became extraordinarily gentle.

"Richard, are things still going well?"

"Not very well at all," Richard was puzzled. He couldn't help but ask, "Susan, have you misunderstood her? Why do I feel that Hazel does not seem to be the kind of woman who loves money and she is vain?"

Susan was stunned then became angry, not only had Joshua fallen in with Hazel, so had Richard Hamilton.

"Why isn't she?" Susan was mad, "What do you mean? Do you mean I am lying? Or did you only see her and fall in love with her?!"

"Susan, I only love you, how can I fall in love with other women?" Richard Hamilton hurriedly explained, "I am not doing well today. Hazel seemed to have no interest in me and does not like money very much... ..."

"That was because she was lying to you!" Susan growled. "She is good at pretending to be innocent. If not, how can my cousin be fascinated by her? Richard, Hazel was very sly, and she was playing you today, you must not be cheated by her!"

"Really?" Richard became angrier. "This woman is absolutely hateful, Susan. Don't worry, I will not be fooled by her again!"

Susan was not so angry now, and she then gave him some suggestions.

"Richard, you can't use ordinary means to chase Hazel. Isn't there a lot of women who like a man like the president of a company? You need to think about what kind of heroes you are, save the beauty.

Richard seriously thought about it.

***

Hazel originally thought that she had been so harsh that Richard would definitely not bother her again, so she didn't worry too much.

She went to the library to study as usual, but she did not know, Richard was secretly following her and watching her every move. As she was walking past the woods, a few men rushed out and stopped in front of her. She walked around them, figuring it was best just to ignore them, but they jumped in front of her again.

She frowned, looked up, and it was five men that stopped her. They looked like they should be gangsters nearby, not school students.

"Is there something I can help you with?" Hazel asked.

"Beauty, we haven't been shown around the university yet. Be our guide, take us on tour." The leading man sneered, the men behind him laughed and watched Hazel, with an unfriendly expression on their faces.

"I have no time," Hazel said indifferently.

"How can you have no time? We see you are quite idle," a man stepped forward. He smiled and reached out his hand and touched Hazel's face.

"Don't worry, we will not hurt you. We are just waiting for you to take us around the school. We will repay you well, you will make you feel happy…'

Richard in the distance looked at all of this pleasingly. These hooligans were paid by him, he planned to play the hero.

Seeing that the man's palm was about to fall on her face, Hazel's eyes became a little colder. She was preparing to take action, but suddenly she heard someone shouting, "Stop!"

Hazel's eyes flashed with helplessness, she did not look back, but she could tell that the voice was Richard's. Why was he still around?

Seeing it in the blink of an eye, Richard had reached them. He was standing in front of Hazel, he looked like an honorable hero.

"What do you want to do?! In broad daylight, you dare to bully a woman. Don't go too far!"

"Hey, are you going to save the beauty?" The leading man came to Richard and said with sarcasm. "Boy, you are now a hero, be careful you don't get beat!"

"I just want to save her!" Richard turned to Hazel and said, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you!"

Hazel looked at him silently and thought Richard's performance was too fake. Did he really think she couldn't tell? They were clearly a group that he knew; otherwise, how could Richard appear so timely?

"Okay," Hazel stepped back two steps. "I'll watch the show."

Richard was shocked. Did he hear her wrong? Hazel said she was going to watch the show?

However, he did not have time to think, he was already on the hook, so Richard suddenly started to fight. However, contrary to Hazel's original thought of the leader letting Richard beat him, the leader grabbed Richard's fist so fast Richard did not know what hit him.
