Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"Why?" She looked at him suspiciously but still gave him her phone.

He pressed a few buttons on the phone. "Just saving my number for you, so you don't have to ask who I am when I call you tomorrow."

Her cheeks got slightly flushed.

Indeed, she hadn't saved Joshua's number, but wouldn't do that now actually bring her closer to him?

"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow." After he saved the number, he gave it back to her.

"... Okay." She nodded.

Hazel didn't tell Summer and Ariel about pretending to be Joshua's girlfriend.

After all, she planned to help Joshua this time, and she would never contact him again.

But Ariel and Summer would betray her. And she didn't want to be dressed up again. What if she was dressed too formally and Joshua misunderstood?

Hazel went to the library early in the morning, giving her roommates the impression she was going to study. Not until Joshua called did she pack up her belongings and go straight to him.

But no sooner had she left the library when she was stopped.

"Hazel!" Isaac looked at her. "Why are you in the library? I have been waiting for you for two hours! Also, why can I not get through on your cell phone?"

"How did you get my cell phone number?" She stared at him suspiciously.

Isaac was dressed in a purple suit today, and she finally understood what Ariel meant when she said 'sexy.'

Someone could only wear such an intriguing color as good-looking and graceful as him.

"It doesn't matter." He calmly understated it. It was easy for him to find out Hazel's cell phone number, but he couldn't get through at all, making him wonder.

But this was clearly not the time to ask these questions. He guessed very likely that Joshua had something to do with it.

He said helplessly, "I come to you to explain to you what happened yesterday. "

"Do you want to get beaten today since I didn't have the chance yesterday?!" She clenched her teeth angrily. "I'd love to put you in a wheelchair!"

At the thought of Isaac's white chrysanthemums and the "couplet" yesterday, she wanted to beat him until he couldn't take care of himself.

"Don't!" He hurriedly explained, "I can explain. I was going to give you roses yesterday. All those things were secretly changed by that hateful man…"

"What were you planning to do with the roses?" She frowned warily.

"Miss, your concern is extraordinary," he said helplessly. "Shouldn't you be asking who changed my things? Your guess is right. It was Joshua, the bastard…"

"I never made a guess at all…" She was speechless. "Besides, you haven't told me why you were going to give me roses."

He looked at her in amazement. Suddenly, he held out his hand to raise her chin flirtatiously. "What else do men mean by sending women roses? Hazel, I like…"

"Rascal!"

She grabbed his arms and twisted them behind him abruptly!

Isaac was both helpless and frustrated. He lost again on the same trick.

Crap! He had forgotten for a while that she was not an ordinary girl.

"You scum! You have a fiancée, and you still dare to mess with me!" She pressed him a little harder in anger. "Will you think of doing that again?!"

"It hurts! Softer!" He put up with the pain and continued explaining, "Hazel, listen to me about my fiancée. There was an engagement arranged by my family. I've never agreed on it, and I've never touched her. She just tried to trick me into leaving that day…"

"Don't you think you're too irresponsible to say that, Mr. Anderson?"

A cool voice sounded, Hazel's heart sank, and her strength intuitively began to weaken.

Isaac's eyes became darker, and with a bit of strength he had left in his arm, he broke free from Hazel.

"Joshua, what are you doing here?" he asked unhappily.

Hazel was actually surprised. It turned out that Isaac was not a horrible person, and he also knew some defense skills if he could break free from her so easily.

So, he allowed himself to be caught by her on purpose? She couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"Of course, I'm here to meet Hazel." Joshua walked past Isaac and held Hazel's hand very calmly. "Let's go."

She involuntarily pulled her hand away to break free, but he pinched her hand, his eyes unnoticeably looking sideways toward the direction of Isaac.

She noticed it, and she understood what Joshua meant. She and Joshua together, acting like a couple to make Isaac give up harassing her? That was really a good idea.

"Okay." She nodded.

Isaac looked at them in astonishment. He blocked them again. "Wait, Hazel, why didn't you push Joshua away?"

Joshua held Hazel's hand tightly and shook their hands in front of him. "Because we're a couple now. Mr. Anderson, you should know that. Why do you pretend that you don't?"

Isaac widened his eyes in astonishment.

Huh? Did Joshua conquer Hazel so quickly?

He had thought that Joshua was a piece of wood who lacked a sense of romance, but he actually conquered Hazel within a few days?

"Come on, don't lie to me!" Isaac frowned. "You must be afraid I'm going to pursue her, so you're putting on an act in front of me, right?"

She felt a little guilty. How could he have guessed so accurately?

Joshua looked unconcerned and said, "Isaac, if that is what makes you happy, you can continue to think it. Please move out of our way. We have a date to enjoy."

Seeing that Isaac refused to move out of their way, Joshua took Hazel by the hand and walked around him.

Stunned, Isaac watched Hazel follow Joshua and get into his car. He could not understand what was happening. He clearly did not believe it, but the fact was he did see it with his own eyes.

After they got into the car, Hazel held her hand with the other hand uncomfortably.

She actually... It was a strange feeling to have been holding hands with Joshua for so long.

Joshua had a small smile on his lips. He could guess what Hazel was struggling with, but he said nothing about it.

He drove to the parking lot of the mall.

She looked at him in astonishment. "Why did you bring me here?"

"We need to buy you a new dress," he said softly.

"Umm, No?" She refused with a little awkwardness. "My clothes are fine."
