Joshua was stunned, and he let go of Hazel.
"Hey--" Hazel burst into tears, they were rolling down her cheeks.
The pain that Joshua had already been feeling became worse. He had felt terrible hearing her cry on the phone, and to see her crying in front of him was killing him.
"Hazel, don't cry, I'm the bad guy. Did I scare you?" Joshua patted her back gently, sweet-talking her.
"Joshua, why are you upsetting me?" She cried even more sadly. "Why don't you care for yourself? It makes me think I am so bad..."
Joshua froze.
"What do you want me to do?" He bitterly twitched his lips and already guessed her intentions, "Don't drink and eat on time, sleep on time?"
"Yes..." Hazel stopped crying and nodded.
Joshua's smile was even more bitter. He held Hazel and leaned his head against her neck, "Hazel, you are so cruel. You don't even want to give me a chance to vent? What should I do then?"
Hazel was stunned. They broke up. She was sad, but Joshua would be unhappy too.
But why could Joshua meet her demands unconditionally?
Even if he was wronged, he was not willing to blame her.
Hazel's tears fell again. She felt guiltier. She wanted to ask him why but she dared not.
She could not go weak and bring danger to the Crowe Family.
"Well, just don't cry. I promise you." Joshua gently wiped her tears. "You won't see me in the future, so you don't need to feel like a bad person."
Hazel looked at him in confusion. Deep down, she wanted to see him.
Could it be that she really would not see Joshua in the future? Just thinking of it, Hazel's heart felt like it was breaking again.
Joshua held her up and sent her to the door. "Go back."
Hazel left in despair. She suddenly began to doubt, "Is it right to break up like this and let both of us suffer?"
Joshua's decadent look overwhelmed her mind, and Hazel only felt breathless and full of pain.
She went to the bathroom again and washed the tears from her face. When she went back, she saw Nadine and Ronald standing in the hallway.
Hazel hid behind a plant so that she would not bother them.
"Ronald, why can't you understand me? I have been waiting for you for four years..." Nadine said with tears, reaching out her hands, trying to touch Ronald.
Ronald caught her hands quickly, "Nadine, sorry, we are better off as friends."
"But you don't have a girlfriend, right? Why don't you try to get along with me?" Nadine said reluctantly.
"Thanks, but I prefer the modest type," Ronald said impatiently.
Nadine's face changed, and she ran away infuriated.
Hazel walked out from behind the plant. Ronald looked at her, "You heard everything?"
"Yeah. "
"What do you think?"
"She is not the type that our parents would approve of," Hazel said faintly.
Ronald had some disappointment in his eyes, "Just like that?"
"If you like her, I still hope you can be together." Hazel's look was a bit bleak.
She actually remembered Joshua. Ronald suddenly seemed to be impatient and said with an intolerant tone, "Go home?"
Hazel nodded. She thought that she would get better by going out. Instead, she saw Joshua and her bad mood worsened. It would be better to go home.
As the two walked out of the bar, they suddenly heard a noise on the side of the road and the cry of a woman.
Hazel frowned because she saw a man beating a crying woman in the street.
"Johnson, forget it! She is still your woman." The other man advised.
The man named Johnson took a wallet from the woman's arms, then spit in her face and said triumphantly, "What are you afraid of? This woman is a dog that I have raised! When I am happy, I tease her. When I'm not happy, I will hit her and drive her away, but she will wait for me in the same place! No matter what I ask, she will agree... Ah!"
Hazel hit Johnson's face with a heavy punch.
"You dare to hit me!" Johnson covered his face and cursed, "Bitch..."
Hazel hit him with another blow to his face.
The people around Johnson were displeased, "What are you doing?"
But before they came forward, they were stopped by Ronald.
After a short while, Johnson was beaten badly and pleaded, "Your Highness, I am wrong. Just spare me!"
"Enough, Hazel." Ronald incapacitated Johnson's followers and reached out to stop her.
Hazel kicked Johnson's ass and yelled, "Scum!"
"Let's go." Ronald pulled Hazel away.
The two walked along the road, and Ronald said to her helplessly, "Why did you do that? There are so many scum in this world. Do you think you can take on all of them? What if they were stronger? You should just call the police if you see this kind of thing again... Hey Hazel, I just said a few words. Why are you crying?"
Ronald suddenly panicked and quickly handed the tissue to her. "Don't cry! What happened?"
Hazel took the tissue and simply rubbed her eyes. She shook her head and said nothing.
She was angry simply because the scum's words were too harsh.
Wasn't it the same between Joshua and her?
When she was happy, she stayed close to him. When she was not, she left him. But no matter how much she asked, he would always satisfy her. Even if she abandoned him, he would wait for her in the same place.
She suddenly felt that she was nothing but scum. How could she have treated Joshua like this?
Hazel suddenly entered the store on the side of the road. Soon, she walked out with two beers and threw one at Ronald.
"Brother, can you really forget your troubles when you drink?" She asked.
"Difficult for the average person. You should be fine." Ronald replied. Hazel could quickly get drunk.
Hazel opened the beer and drank it.
"You drink slowly." Ronald frowned, reaching out to take the beer out of her hands.
"Don't you just want me to spit out the truth after drinking?" Hazel looked at him with a smile.
Ronald's face was rigid. Hazel had gulped her beer down, and she said with a trembling voice, "Brother, I really feel bad. I don't know what to do except for drinking!"
Ronald was very distressed, and he sighed, "Since you feel bad, why did you break up with Joshua?"
