Mathew was so touched that he didn't know what to say. What he hated most was when the investors had to act in the films. If he hadn't been so depressed and wanted to prove himself, he wouldn't have compromised and agreed to Susan helping to make the film.
He thought that Hazel's quick investment meant she must want to act as an actress in the entertainment industry. But to his surprise, Hazel didn't mean to meddle in the movie at all, leaving everything to him.
"Miss Crowe, do you have any requirements for the movie?" Mathew asked gratefully.
"Of course," Hazel said earnestly. "It's a good movie. It's my first investment. I'm a businesswoman now, and I want to see the earnings."
Mathew opened his mouth as if he was about to say something. Hazel was amazed. "Are you still worried that I'm deceiving you? Don't worry. I will entrust other people to prepare the investment contract. You can look it over, and if there is no problem, you can sign it…"
"No, Miss Crowe, I believe you, I just don't know how to thank you..." Mathew reached out and rubbed his red eyes.
In such a short period of time, he experienced the ups and downs of life. He had been desperate to commit suicide, but Hazel pulled him back and offered him so much help. Although he was a sturdy man in his thirties, he could not help crying, touched.
Seeing him wiping away tears, Hazel was so uncomfortable and confused that she didn't know how to comfort him.
"Director Carter, what about this?" said Hazel. "As for the entertainment industry, I am actually a layman. If there will be such opportunities to make money in the future, you can help me act as a go-between. So, will that make us even?"
"Sure, sure!" Mathew rubbed his eyes and answered solemnly. But Hazel didn't know Mathew took it seriously, although she just said it casually.
A short time later, Jaxson brought the investment contract here.
Hazel knew herself very well and knew that she didn't know anything about it, so she asked Jaxson to help. Jaxson knew about Hazel's relationship with Joshua, so he would naturally do his best.
There was nothing wrong with the contract, and after agreeing on some details, the two individuals signed it quickly. Then Hazel sent Mathew away and called Joshua.
She used such a large sum of money, and she should at least tell Joshua, though there was no reason.
Joshua had met with Sunny and was on his way back. He listened to Hazel patiently, a little surprised.
"... In fact, I originally wanted Denmark Group to invest, but this would make things more difficult, and it would be difficult to explain, so I'll invest personally." Hazel explained, "As for the money, it can be considered as a loan from you."
Although Joshua always believed that Denmark Group was hers, other directors of Denmark Group didn't know her true identity. If they could not explain clearly, it might be the reason for others to attack Joshua. Besides, if the money really came from Denmark Group's account, it would be more troublesome to deal with.
"What loan? It's your money. Just make up your mind." Joshua smiled a little. "I'll ask Jaxson to accompany you to the set and check in to the situation in the next few days. If there is any trouble, you can ask Jaxson to help solve it."
"Okay." Hazel's heart was warm. She asked softly, "Did you handle your business?"
"Yes, it's done," he said quietly. "Susan won't bother you in the future, and Aunt Sunny is going back to Country D."
"Is it that?" Hazel whispered. Although Sunny was adopted, she was still a relative of her birth mother. She only met her once, and they're predictably was regret in her heart.
"Mm," Joshua hesitated suddenly. "Do you want to meet her?"
Hazel was in a daze. Although she didn't have any bad feelings about Sunny, she didn't like Susan, who she met today. If she went to meet Sunny, it would not be reasonable, and maybe Susan would make some trouble.
"No. We'll meet again in the future," Hazel whispered.
"Okay." Joshua didn't insist.
Mathew Carter was very serious about the film, so he had already finished the early work. As soon as Hazel's funds were in place, the filming would continue immediately.
Hazel watched him work a few times, but she knew she was a layman, so she didn't get involved in his shooting. She just asked him if he had any problems and left it all to Jaxson.
Mathew was greatly moved. He had met many investors before, but none of them were as kind and supportive of him as Hazel. Hence, he went on to shoot the film with great energy, and the whole crew was driven by his enthusiasm.
***
One day after Hazel walked around the set, she drove directly to Denmark Residence.
When Nanny Carter saw her, she couldn't resist but said delightedly, "Miss Crowe, you haven't been here for a long time! Come on in. I'll help you with the coffee. Do you have anything you want to eat? I'll ask the cook to make…"
There was warmth in Hazel's heart. Nanny Carter had been treating her well, almost as if Hazel were her daughter.
"Nanny Carter, please don't hurry. I have something to do today." Hazel quickly grabbed her.
"Ah? But Master Denmark is not at home, I'll call him back now..." after saying this, Nanny Carter went to get the landline.
"No, no, no, I'm coming to you," Hazel said with some trepidation. "Nanny Carter, do you know what Joshua likes to eat?"
Nanny Carter thought for a bit. "Master Denmark is not a fussy eater. He doesn't seem to have any particular likes or dislikes."
"Really?" Hazel frowned. It would be more convenient if he was fussy.
"Nanny Carter, can I borrow the kitchen?" she asked.
"Yes, you can," Nanny Carter smiled as she said, "You're free to use it."
Hazel entered the kitchen and pulled out a homemade cookbook. She came to Denmark Residence today to cook a meal for Joshua.
However, she also knew her cooking skill, so she would sneak over. If it worked, she would surprise Joshua. If it failed… then she would consider it as practice.
Picking out a few simple recipes, she took ingredients from the fridge and started practicing.
Nanny Carter was worried when she heard banging in the kitchen, but Hazel closed the door and wouldn't let anyone in. She quietly called Joshua to let him know what was happening.
By the time Joshua returned, Hazel had completed the first course.
He opened the kitchen door just in time to see her sighing at the dishes. But when she saw him, Hazel twisted around and hid it behind her.
"Why, why are you back so early?" Hazel asked as if she were a criminal caught in the act.
