Chapter 1118 - 406: You’re Quite Well- Prepared

Hazel was a little confused. She had thought that Sunny was neutral, but now she was at Denmark Residence with Fred Cohen, maybe she was partial to Mandy and Fred after all.

Keeping everything in mind, Hazel and Crystal walked to the study. They hadn't even gone in when they could hear the yelling.

"Joshua, don't go too far!" Fred said angrily, "Now that Sunny has confirmed that the necklace is the one created by Marcus and Cate! The evidence is real, and it has always been with Mandy, which proves her identity. She is the daughter of the Denmark family!"

"It's ridiculous that you want to prove identity with a necklace," said Joshua simply.

"Indeed, a necklace can't prove anything," Sunny said softly. "Joshua, I understand your cautious attitude, but Mandy doesn't only have a necklace, she also has a birthmark. In addition to the birthmark, there are

pictures of her in the information from when she was taken to the orphanage. After looking at those pictures, you cannot deny that Mandy is not the Denmark family's child."

"So, are you determined to support Mandy?" A smile curved Joshua's lips as he was not very surprised.

Sunny's eyes turned deep, and she whispered, "All I support is the Denmark family's daughter, my niece."

Fred was very aggressive. "Joshua, you can't deny Mandy's identity in any case! She is the daughter of the Denmark family, and you must return her property to her!"

"I'm rather curious," Joshua asked simply. "Director Cohen, what do you think I need to return to the Denmark family's daughter?"

"Of course, these things!" Fred took out a list, well-prepared.

"You're quite well-prepared." Joshua took it and quietly leafed it through.

"I'm not well-prepared. But you've been procrastinating!" Fred said unhappily, "Joshua, I know what you're thinking. You're afraid that your property will be taken away from you, so you found a woman to control the Denmark family. However, she is only a regular woman. Besides, Mandy likes you, too. As long as you marry Mandy, everything that belongs to the Denmark family will be yours."

Hazel tensed up. Fred said that in a very unkind voice, but it sounded irresistible. What... what would Joshua choose?

Joshua looked at Fred sarcastically. "Looks like you want to control me as well as Denmark Group?"

"What control?! Why are your words so unpleasant?!" Fred was very angry. "If you don't marry Mandy, give us Denmark Group! After that, you can be with whoever you like! But do you think Hazel would want you if you have nothing?"

"You don't need to worry about me," Joshua said, looking at him coldly. "As long as you know, even if I give up Denmark Group, I will not give up Hazel, and I will not marry Mandy so I can become your puppet."

Hazel was standing in the doorway, her heart felt warm.

It turned out she had been a worrywart, and she had been worrying about a problem that didn't exist in the least. She should have figured out that it was impossible for him to be nice to her just because he thought she was Denmark's daughter.

"You...!" Fred was too angry to speak.

Sunny looked at Joshua with deep eyes because his reaction was not what she had expected. Instead of arguing with Joshua over things, she asked, "When are you going to admit Mandy's identity and return what belongs to her?"

Joshua said nonchalantly, "Tomorrow. Just because you are so worried, this matter should be resolved."

Hazel quickly pulled Crystal's arm so they could hide around the corner before Sunny and Fred walked out of the study.

After they left, Hazel looked shyly at Crystal. "That… Later I want to go to the study and be alone with Joshua for a while. Could you please leave me alone?"

Crystal looked at her with an odd look of embarrassment and resignation. "Major General has told me to act accordingly. You're at Denmark Residence, and Joshua is here, so I can judge that you're very safe at the moment."

Hazel felt a bit embarrassed as well, it turned out that Crystal didn't want to disturb her life. 

"You can go to find Nanny Carter," Hazel said awkwardly. "Ask her to show you around and arrange a room for you to live in."

After Crystal left, Hazel quickly pushed the door open. Joshua was looking through the list that Fred had given him, he calmly put it in the shredder.

Hearing the sound of the door, he looked up and saw Hazel run to him like the wind and throw herself at him. "Joshua!"

Before he could speak, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him passionately.

He was a bit surprised. Hazel used to flirt with him, but since she had been distant and questioning his loyalty, she rarely did so. However, she seemed different than before.

"What's the matter, Hazel?" he asked in surprise.

"Nothing," she said with a sweet smile on her face. "I just want to kiss you and tell you that I love you and miss you so much!"

The next moment, her tender lips, which were like delicate petals, came close to him again. His eyes were glowing, he smiled and kissed her again. Hazel's heart was open and free, she kissed him with more passion. He had never felt their hearts were so close.

"Did you hear anything?" His fingers brushed against her lips lightly.

"Yes..." Hazel's cheeks were red. Sure enough, there was nothing that could be hidden from his sharp eyes. Then she asked with some curiosity. "What are you going to do tomorrow?"

She could feel that Fred was well-prepared to take Denmark Group away from Joshua.

There was a bit of hidden resentment in Joshua's eyes suddenly as he said in a low voice, "Hazel, even if I have nothing left, don't give up on me, okay? I am actually quite capable. I mean, in various aspects."

She gave him a mortified slap on the c.h.e.s.t. "I'm talking business to you!"

"I'm talking business to you, too." He chuckled.

"You can rest assured, I won't break up with you. Even if you really have nothing, at worst, I can raise you!" Hazel pinched his cheek laughingly. "You're such a pretty toy boy. I'll take care of you very willingly!"

"Then I'm going to get ready to live off you?" he chuckled.
