Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Joshua's actions were simple, but as Hazel watched him, she understood him and what he was thinking about.

"This time, it was my fault. I was not able to protect myself," Hazel was dim.

"But aren't you angry that he tried to do something to me?"

"Stupid girl, how can I blame you for this kind of thing?" Joshua looked awkward. "I am a little angry, but I am angrier that I was not able to protect you. And, I am even angrier that some people dare to bully you."

Listening to the chill in his words, Hazel looked at him with awkwardness. "Those things are just misunderstandings. You don't want to do anything to him? We are in another country, I don't want to trouble you because of me."

Joshua put his arm around Hazel and looked into her eyes. She was always so sensible, even if she was being bullied, the first thing she thought of was not making trouble for him.

"Do not worry," Joshua kissed her softly on the forehead. "Although it is another country, I can make sure that the woman I am supposed to be protecting is not bullied."

His woman...Hearing this sentence, Hazel's face blushed.

He helped her dry her hair, then went to the study with one of the bodyguards.

"Did you find it?" Joshua asked coldly.

"Joshua, when we arrived, the other party had already left." The bodyguard replied, "We went to check the monitoring, but the other party got to it before us and wiped it out."

"Hmm?" Joshua frowned. He was really surprised that the man had taken that kind of action in such a short time. He had the impression that the person Hazel encountered was not just an ordinary person.

The other party had been prepared before the incident with Hazel, not necessarily because of her, it was more likely that they had been cautious for other reasons.

"Find out what forces have come to this country recently," Joshua sighed. "And, also find out who is still living in this hotel."

After the bodyguard promised to find the information for Joshua, he opened the door of the study and saw that Hazel was standing there about to knock on the door.

"Did you finish talking?" Hazel asked strangely.

"Yes." Joshua's look was gentle, "Come in."

Hazel walked in, her eyes were full of the light of anticipation. "Joshua, are there any tourist spots in Country F, is there any guide? If there is, can you please give me a guide?"

"Yes." Joshua smiled and gave her a prepared guide.

He had guessed right; he knew Hazel would want to explore when she went to another country, and he didn't want her to miss out on the exotic customs.

He handed her the guide that he had prepared ahead of time, she took it with excitement and looked at the guide with joy.

"Take this." Joshua handed her a delicate silver pistol.

Hazel was shocked. She just prepared to refuse, and she heard Joshua said, "We are in a foreign country. When you go out tomorrow, it is best to take it with you in addition to taking bodyguards."

"Okay." Thinking of the previous things, Hazel nodded and took the pistol.

She quickly looked through the guide and unexpectedly asked, "Why does it only have activities for four days? What about the last two days?"

"The last two days are for me to spend with you. I want to be able to go shopping with you." Joshua smiled at her.

"Okay!" Hazel nodded happily. Being accompanied by him was better than walking alone by herself.

***

Hazel got up early to go exploring, she went to the most famous commercial street in the country, according to the guide. It was not the most convenient place to get to, so Hazel bought a lot of gifts to avoid going back a second time. Both she and the bodyguards were carrying a lot of bags, but Hazel wanted to stop and taste some of the local specialties.

There was a group of men with their hoods up walking toward her and the bodyguards. Hazel didn't think much of it at first, but when she realized it was so hot, she began to wonder why they were wearing such warm clothing.

As they continued to get closer and closer, Hazel noticed they all had their hands in their pockets; she squinted so she could try to make out the outline of what they were hiding.

The gang of men was walking faster and faster, Hazel suddenly had a sense of danger. She took the bags in her and threw them at the group.

Gunshots rang out.

They did not expect Hazel to make a move, so they took out their guns and began firing in her direction. Hazel was worried and scared, she couldn't understand why they would come after her. Even in a different country, people would not leave her alone.

One of the bodyguards realized that the situation was getting dangerous and quickly guarded Hazel to get her to safety. Suddenly, there was the sound of more gunshots, everyone screamed and ran to hide.

"Miss Crowe, we will stop them. You get out of here!" said the bodyguard while he looked around at all of the confusion.

"Good." Hazel nodded. She wouldn't be able to help even if she stayed. They were coming for her, so she took advantage of the chaos and ran into the crowd away from the busy shops.

Some of the gang discovered her escape route, then made it past the bodyguards and continued to chase her. Hazel ran hard, she saw a Ferrari parked in front of her, the driver was sitting in the car.

Hazel didn't care who he was, she just quickly opened the front passenger's door and got in, pressing the silver pistol around the man's waist.

"Drive!" Hazel shouted. It was a unique situation, and she didn't want to waste time explaining.

The man in the driver's seat still didn't move. He said lazily, "I won't drive."

"...you!" Hazel was annoyed. "You think I won't dare shoot you...Right?"

Before she could say anything more, she looked at the man and put her hand to her mouth in shock.

The man sitting in the driver's seat was not just anyone. It was the strange man that she had encountered the day before, he was still wearing the mask.

She didn't know which situation was safer, she felt it was all dangerous, but she felt more fearful with the man in the car. She pulled on the door handle to get out of the car, but it was locked.

"If you will not drive? Let me get out!" Hazel stared at him with vigilance.

"Woman, do you think that you can get in and out as you want?" Then the man looked at her, he let out a quiet sigh and looked at Hazel with interest.

"I am being chased!" Hazel endured anger. "If we just sit here, they will catch up soon. Be careful, they may not let you go!"
