Joshua chose not to show everyone the recording while they were accusing Hazel because he knew Ivan would have apologized to her.
Hazel is so caring that she would have forgiven Ian. Joshua would not give Ivan the chance to apologize and would not give Hazel the chance to forgive him.
A man who did not trust Hazel did not deserve to be with her.
"I guess I should thank you for helping me out." Hazel smiled.
"So, are we okay?" Joshua said.
The smile on Hazel's face was fading.
The root of the problem between her and Joshua was not here. Joshua saw all the changes in Hazel's expression.
He slowed down and pulled the car to the side of the road. Hazel straightens up in her seat and suddenly realizes there was a problem.
If she pissed off Joshua, would he suddenly drop her halfway home?
"Hazel." Joshua was looking really serious, "Let's talk about our problems."
"Can we go back first and talk?" Hazel whispered with a bit of embarrassment.
Joshua was a bit surprised. Seeing her eyes evading him, he suddenly understood what Hazel was worried about.
Joshua felt angry and funny at the same time, but he said, "Well then, think about what you are going to say to me when we get back."
Hazel suddenly sneezed several times.
"Got a cold?" Joshua asked with concern.
"Maybe, it could be from being in the rain earlier today." Hazel rubbed her nose.
Joshua opened the storage compartment and took out a few boxes of medicine, "See if you can find something that might help?"
Hazel searched in the boxes and took two capsules out of a package. Joshua handed her a bottle of water.
After taking the pills, Hazel noticed Joshua staring at her. He seemed envious of her. Was Joshua envious of her ability to take medicine so smoothly?
Hazel was curious and feeling awkward at the same time. "Why are you afraid of taking medicine?" She couldn't help but ask.
"Not afraid. I just hate medicine." Joshua corrected her.
Hazel was speechless. Then she asked, "Why do you hate taking medicine?"
Joshua's eyes flickered. He whispered, "Hazel if you want to take care of me, you have to take care of me to the end. I don't accept your curiosity for a moment."
Hazel went flushed.
She just asked casually. When did she say that she wanted to take care of him? And what was "to the end"? Does that mean a lifetime?
"Who the hell wants to care for you..." Hazel whispered and turned to look out of the window.
Joshua's eyes were darker. He didn't say anything more and just started the car.
As the medicine began to work, Hazel fell asleep involuntarily.
When they reached the Imperial Capital, Hazel was in a deep sleep. Joshua was not willing to wake her up, so he took her to the Denmark Residence.
Hazel heard someone whispering when she was half awake.
"Young Master, what happened to Miss Crowe?"
"She is fine. Nanny Carter, please take care of her. And call me if she wakes up."
"Okay. "
Hazel had wanted to open her eyes, but she was exhausted.
Not long after that, she was placed on a soft bed and continued to sleep.

"Joshua!" Isaac Anderson aggressively pushed open the door to Joshua's room. He rushed to the bed and pulled back the quilt, "I heard that you are sick. I want to check if you are dead or not..."
Isaac could not finish his words, he was stunned by Hazel, who was sleeping in the bed. He quickly dropped the quilt back down onto Hazel and murmured, "I must be dreaming. This can't be real. It must be an illusion..."
Hazel opened her eyes and looked around. She was still a bit sleepy.
"Where am I? Why am I here?"
When she pulled the quilt back from her face, she saw Isaac standing beside the bed.
She immediately jumped out of bed and, without hesitating, kicked Isaac.
"Ouch!" Isaac groaned with a painful sigh. He stared at Hazel with sorrow and anger, "Hazel, it's really you!"
"What is going on? Is this real?" Hazel grabbed the quilt and covered her body, looking at Isaac cautiously, "Why are you here?"
"That is what I want to ask you about," Isaac said with a broken heart.
He desperately yelled, "Why are you in Joshua' bedroom, Hazel? Are you two really dating? Are you together?"
"Watch your language!" Hazel waved her fist at Isaac in anger.
The next moment, she looked at the furnishings in the room. It was indeed Joshua's bedroom, but how did she end up here?
"I understand." Isaac said, "Joshua kidnapped you! Does he want to imprison you and do S&M things with you? Hazel, don't be afraid, I will save you!"
"You really got to stop thinking so much..." Hazel glanced at him silently.
"Then what the hell is going on?" Isaac looked at her earnestly, "Come on and tell me. I can handle all of it."
"I guessed when I was still sleeping, so he brought me here." Hazel guessed.
"Oh, my goodness! Take a girl home when she is asleep? He is not a good guy." Isaac said confidently, "Hazel, you should stay away from him."
Hazel was speechless. Joshua was quite right about his fair-weather friend.
She ignored Isaac and walked out of the room. Hazel saw that Nanny Carter was downstairs.
"Hazel, how was your sleep?" Nanny Carter asked intimately.
"Very well. Where is Joshua?" Hazel looked around.
"The Young Master went out for business." Nanny Carter said, "Do you need me to call him back?"
"No need." Hazel shook her head, "Since he is not there, I will be going home."
"Let me drive you," Isaac said.
"When did you arrive?" Nanny Carter glanced at Isaac in surprise, even though she knew who he was, she did not look very impressed with this behavior.
"Just now." Isaac said smugly, "I snuck in when you were not paying attention."
Nanny Carter reprimanded Isaac for a second. Isaac laughed and accepted.
"Hazel, wait for a second, the young master will be back soon." Nanny Carter said.
Hazel shook her head, "He will probably be swamped. I will come back to see him some other time."
Seeing that Hazel was determined, Nanny Carter had to say, "Alright then, let Isaac drive you."
Before Hazel refused, Isaac said, "Exactly, I will take you home. Please invite me to dinner, Hazel."
