Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Vanessa was completely confused. Why was Hazel able to say these words so convincingly? Wasn't she with Joshua for his money?

"Then Joshua will lose nothing!" Vanessa bellowed.

"Let it be. Why do you look more anxious than I am?" Hazel looked at her, puzzled.

"Don't you really care?!" Vanessa was even more irritated.

"Of course, I do," Hazel says with a bland face. "But given your temper, even if I leave him, you'll continue to threaten him with the Denmark family's daughter. In that case, I must stay by his side until he really loses everything, but at least he will have me!"

Vanessa was trembling with anger. She was pretty sure now that Hazel was fooling her.

When she thought Hazel was a stupid woman only focused on love, she acted as if she was obsessed with money. But when she thought she was a bad woman only loving money, she began to show her love and care for Joshua.

"Hazel, are you trying to fool me?!" Vanessa pointed at her angrily.

"No." Hazel looked blankly at her. "I'm telling you what I think."

"You..." Vanessa was even more irritated.

This matter was originally a fiction used for deceiving Hazel, but she didn't rise to the bait, which made Vanessa completely lose her mind.

"Wait and see, I'll make you regret it!" Vanessa bellowed. However, her face changed suddenly, and she rushed into the bathroom to vomit despite herself.

Hazel followed her in disbelief. Both of them were in shock.

How could it be possible? Did she actually make Vanessa so pissed off that she vomited? Was Vanessa too angry, or did she just go too far?

But what she just said was all the truth.

"Hi, are you all right?" Hazel was a little embarrassed. "Do you need me to get you a glass of water or call an ambulance for you …"

"Get out — !" Vanessa yelled angrily at Hazel as if she had exhausted all her strength. "Hazel Crowe, don't shed crocodile tears!"

"Alright..." Hazel was taken back, and then she shrugged. "I guess you're not happy to see me. I will leave."

Hazel immediately left the bathroom, she was always good to those who were good to her, but she did not waste her time sucking up to others.

She wasn't Vanessa's mother, she cared about Vanessa only because she had thought she had pissed Vanessa off and made her puke. But, when Vanessa cursed her, she wasn't going to stay to fight with her.

Vanessa clenched her teeth. What kind of woman was she?! She really left like that! Hypocrisy!

Another twinge of sickening sensation welled up, and Vanessa vomited again.

A waitress came to the bathroom and asked her with a little trepidation, "Are you all right, Miss..."

"Are you blind? Can't you see I'm not fine?!" Vanessa yelled at her.

"Shall I get you a glass of water?" The waitress asked in horror, "Are you pregnant since you are vomiting like this…"

"Maybe it's you who is pregnant! Maybe you disgrace your family!" Vanessa stretched out her hand to hit the wall angrily.

The waitress screamed and ran away.

Vanessa froze in the bathroom. She was as cold as if she had cold water poured over her head. Was there really a baby… in her body?!

Hazel just stepped out of the cafe when she got a call from Joshua.

"Hazel, where are you now?" Joshua asked in a deep voice.

"I'm near the company…" She looked around and told him where she was.

"Wait there!" There was a little helplessness in his voice.

She agreed and waited by the door, very shortly after Joshua's car stopped right in front of her.

"Get in," he said with a gloomy face.

When Hazel got into the car, her eyes went to the door of the cafe, and she happened to see Vanessa coming out.

Joshua also saw her and his eyes looked disappointed. "Did you come out without telling anyone so you could meet her?"

"Mmm..." She nodded.

"Hazel, what did she say to you?" he asked gravely.

Hazel hesitated for a bit.

The incident involving the missing girl of the Denmark family should be their secret. If she asked Joshua directly, she might ask him something forbidden.

Besides, she didn't believe that Vanessa had actually found the girl, if she had, she would have threatened Joshua directly. Why would she need to find and threaten her?

"Nothing," she said lightly.

"Really nothing?" Joshua frowned slightly. "Hazel, tell me the truth."

"She told me to leave you, but I didn't want to. Then she puked because I pissed her off." She stuck her tongue out.

"... Is that all?" He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Yes." She smiled. "You can be sure, Joshua. I'm not going to break up with you or distrust you just because someone said something. Unless you have really done something wrong, and then I'll teach you a lesson!"

Joshua's eyes flickered, and he heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid Vanessa would talk nonsense, but it was clear that Hazel didn't give in to her provocation.

"Hazel, don't worry. I'll never do anything bad to you," he whispered his promise.

Hazel smiled, her heart felt warm and sweet.

"But," Joshua said as his face darkened with less tenderness, "Is that why you left without saying a word? Do you know how worried I am about you?"

Hazel's face was a little embarrassed. "Weren't you in a meeting? I don't want to disturb you."

"You should have at least sent me a message." He sighed and pinched her cheek helplessly.

"I knew I was wrong, and I'll never do it again." She put her palms together devoutly and admitted her mistakes sensibly.

His eyes were a little cold as he said to her, "Hazel, don't go to see Vanessa alone anymore."

"Ah? Why?" she asked blankly.

She indeed didn't want to see Vanessa, but in Joshua's words, Vanessa seemed very dangerous.

Joshua's eyes twinkled. He wasn't going to tell Hazel about the crash because he didn't want her to know it.

"She's very crazy. No one knows what she's going to do," he whispered.

Hazel nodded approvingly. "Rest assured, I won't meet her again."

They had talked it over. Even if Vanessa came to her again, she would never meet her.

"That's good." Joshua rubbed her hair gently.

Hazel thought it was over, but she didn't expect that Joshua would transfer Vanessa to a branch office two days later.
