Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Sophia initially thought that Hazel would say that she had a good relationship with Joshua and make her leave. Hazel actually asked her what she liked? Sophia did not know how to answer for a few moments.

But she was prepared to talk, after all, so she quickly looked normal and said, "I usually read books on economics and management. I like playing the piano and playing chess in my spare time... ..."

"I asked what you like." Hazel said with a shallow smile, "That is just what you usually do, but do you really like them?"

Sophia was stunned.

These were the things that her family made her do. No one ever asked her if she liked it or not, and she had not really thought about it before since she knew that they only liked her when she fulfilled their requirements.

"...I like them," Sophia said.

"If you really like them, what took you so long to answer?" Hazel smiled.

"...I just didn't expect you to ask in this way." Sophia defended herself, but these excuses sounded a little weak even to herself.

"Let's forget it," Hazel said faintly. Sophia let out a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that Hazel would continue to ask in that direction.

"In fact, it's quite simple for you to live like this for your entire life." Hazel looked at Sophia seriously and said, "After a few years, you will marry someone at the request of your parents. After you get married, you will give birth to a child as requested by your husband. And after giving birth to the child, you will bring the child up until your child gets married and has his or her children. What a convenient life!"

Sophia's look was a little more flustered.

Was this her life? Just like she had been arranged by her family for the first half of her life, she would follow her path and finish her second half of life. Just...

"But are you willing to go on like that?" Hazel suddenly said.

Sophia's body trembled. She had been living like a puppet, some kind of unwillingness popped up in her head.

"Is this really what you want?" Hazel then asked. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, Hazel smiled, "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked that. You may not even know what you really want, right?"

This sentence hit Sophia's chest like a huge hammer. Her face turned extremely pale, and her mind became nothing but complete chaos.

Indeed, she didn't even know what she wanted. Her life had always been for others. How miserable it was...

"I don't want to do this..." Sophia said a little blankly, "But what can I do?"

"Why don't you fight for yourself?" Hazel's eyes blinked, "You got a double doctor's degree from H university just to prove to your family that you are better than they ask, and your value is more than just being a puppet for them to marry off."

Sophia was in agony and feeling lost. She carefully recalled and thought maybe she really had a rebellious personality, so she performed better than the family demanded.

"But, I..."

Hazel was a little surprised. She saw Sophia's waver, but she didn't even think she could make her waver so soon. It seemed that Sophia had long wanted to resist, but she did not even know how to resist.

"No matter what changes are made, there will be a risk." Hazel continued stirring up the fire. She said faintly, "You ask yourself, is that what you really want? Is it all worth everything you've got?"

The predicament on Sophia's face gradually dissipated. She whispered, "Thank you, Miss Crowe..."

Then Sophia stood up and left the reception room without saying anything.

When she was leaving, she met Jaxson in the hallway. Jaxson looked at Sophia, who was pale and hopeless, and he was astonished. What did Hazel do to Sophia in the reception room? Why did he feel that Sophia was lost?

Hazel also walked out, and Jaxson looked at her with respect. Hazel was really not to be underestimated for her ability to push her rival into such a corner.

Hazel blankly looked at Jaxson. Why was he looking at her so strangely? Hazel didn't think much and quickly returned to the president's office.

"Solved?" Joshua was waiting for her inside.

"Well, it's solved!" Hazel said, "Your plan is really awesome!"

Before she went to see Sophia, Joshua showed her Sophia's personal information and gave her his personal advice on the situation.

So, Hazel asked Sophia questions point blankly and even turned it around on her.

"It's good to be useful," Joshua said faintly.

"I think Director Carter's home will soon have a big hurricane," Hazel said,

"Joshua, you are awesome!"

"Do you still doubt me now?" Joshua tapped her forehead.

Hazel spits out her tongue, "I misunderstood you."

Joshua only knew Sophia because he had done the investigation beforehand, and he didn't have any real thoughts on Sophia. Hazel felt a little funny, but she was also moved, he had even helped her to find a way to deal with her love rival.

"Is there anyone else?" She asked.

"Sure." Joshua took a big stack of papers from the drawer.

Hazel began to regret asking, but she eventually went to the sofa with the papers and read them quietly and dozed off, snoring quietly.

Joshua was speechless, Hazel was really not good at some things, but she was always content to try for him.

Sophia went home, and she talked with her parents for a long time. She made it clear that she wanted to pursue her dreams. As for becoming the wife of Joshua Denmark, it was not what she wanted, which would not be her life goal. Her parents were astonished, they did not expect that the daughter who had been obedient for more than 20 years would suddenly become rebellious.

Unsurprisingly, Sophia was abused by her parents. They even locked her up so that she could be clear headed and aware of the situation. However, her parents did not know how brilliant their daughter had become.

Sophia had prepared before confessing to her parents; when they went to talk to her again, she was gone. News of the situation spread quickly, Sophia was regarded by them as a highly threatening competitor, but she actually was defeated so quickly by one conversation with Hazel.
