Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Hazel was a little annoyed, and Joshua was deliberately teasing her.

"That..." Hazel could not finish her sentence.

"Don\'t think too much," Joshua whispered, "I\'ll handle the rest. Rest assured, this matter will be resolve soon,"

Hazel looked at him in surprise. He actually knew what she was about to say?

Joshua found her long after the comments started, so he knew what had happened.

"Sleep early." Joshua caressed her head gently.

Hazel looked at him resentfully. She was not a child!

When he left, Hazel wrapped herself up with the quilt and rolled around in bed with shame.

Why did she kiss Joshua?

Hazel reached out and touched her hot cheeks. Her heartbeat was still fast. She suddenly discovered that she did feel something for Joshua.

She could find all kinds of reasons to lie to him, but she could not deceive herself.

From the beginning, Hazel felt that he was dangerous and intuitively wanted to stay away from him. But she could now understand that the danger was because he was too attractive. She felt it irresistible when he got close.

She never had these feelings for others. She was scared. When she thought about it, she thought she was being unreasonable.

What did Joshua feel about her?

Hazel was quiet.

If she was regarded as one of the candidates for the surrogate mother, then after what happened to her, Joshua should fully protect himself and get away from her.

Instead, he came to see her right away and took her back to Denmark Residence, like he was never afraid of it being discovered.

She thought to herself. Well…just let it be.

Hazel was already exhausted after such a late night, and she fell asleep quickly.

When she woke up the next morning, Hazel found a clean set of clothes next to the bed. In addition to clothes, there was her cell phone and ID. Did Joshua specifically bring her things here?

She quickly picked up her cell phone to find out what was going on. Hazel got very depressed as she surfed the web on her phone.

She had a basic idea of what happened, which was beyond her expectations. The online negative posts about her were really intense, mainly based on a few photos of her.

She was actually photographed secretly when she got in Joshua, Jaxson, Isaac, and Ivan\'s cars. Every time the car was different. But all of them were expensive. People had determined that she was a "whore".

The old posts about her in the campus forum were dug up by Kyla using an anonymous identity. People all believed that Hazel did something dirty in the preliminary selection.

Even her university was about to expel her. Although Hazel was a bit sad about that, it was not a big surprise. What surprised her was that all the arrowheads were now pointed at Joshua.

The media said with more plausibility that this surrogacy competition had an inside story, and the message came from inside Denmark Group. This added to the credibility of the news.

The Denmark Group remained silent on the matter, and everyone wanted an explanation. Even Denmark Group\'s shares fluctuated by the incident.

How did this message come out of Denmark Group? Hazel could not help but frown. How would Joshua deal with it?

After washing, she left the room and went to find him.

"Miss Crowe, morning." Nanny Carter looked at her with a loving face outside the door.

"Nanny Carter, you may just call me Hazel."

"Okay, Hazel. What do you want for breakfast?"

"No need. I\'m not hungry yet." Hazel asked, "Where\'s Joshua?"

"The young master is in the study room. Go and see him." Nanny Carter smiled, "I\'ll get you something to eat. It\'s not a good habit to skip breakfast."

After saying that, Nanny Carter went downstairs.

Hazel was embarrassed. The nanny could have at least told her where the study was. Hazel came to a nearby room and pushed the door. The door was locked. Hazel was somewhat surprised. What was hidden inside this door?

"What are you doing?"

There was Joshua\'s voice behind her.

Hazel was leaning against the door. She turned around swiftly when she heard his voice. She was like a child who was caught doing something wrong. She said, "I\'m looking for the study room."

"Why?" He asked.

"Looking for you."

Joshua smiled. He asked her softly, "How\'s the injury on your foot?"

She shook her head and said, "It\'s fine now."

Hazel had forgotten about her wound, but Joshua still remembered it. She felt a little moved.

"Do you want to go in and see?" Joshua\'s eyes were deep.

Hazel looked back at the closed door. She quickly shook her head, "No."

She was just curious about the locked room. She didn\'t like to invade another person\'s privacy.

Joshua had opened the door and said, "Come in."

Hazel walked into the room with him. It was a very clean room, and it must have been cleaned regularly. The interior decoration was sweet and elegant, making people feel comfortable.

Hazel\'s gaze fell on the table with a photo on it.

In the photo, there was a pair of young lovers leaning on each other and laughing happily. Somehow, Hazel felt the two people in the picture seemed very familiar.

"This is..."

"My parents. This photo was taken when they were young." Joshua looked at her with deep eyes.

"They must have loved each other so deeply." Hazel asked with a smile, "Where are they now?"

"They passed away several years ago." Joshua looked sad.

"Sorry..." Hazel put down the photo.

"It doesn\'t matter. You didn\'t know." Joshua said, "You were looking for me?"

"Yes." Hazel said, frowning, "It looks like you are now involved in the situation. They are saying there was a dishonest deal in this surrogacy competition...what are you going to do about it?"
