Chapter 1150 - 438: To Take You Away

Hazel's brow furrowed slightly. She looked at the ring, turning it in her hand, but she could not find a hidden compartment. Besides, she knew it would be close to impossible to have a secret hidden in something as small as a ring.

She looked at Joshua and was about to give up when she saw an inscription on the inside of the ring. She held up the ring and looked at it carefully.

"With all my love from Joshua?" She read it out in a low voice.

"Yes," Joshua smiled and nodded. He was happy that she had found it.

"Does your ring also have an inscription?" she asked curiously.

"Yes." He took his ring off and gave it to her. She looked inside and saw the inscription "With all my love from Hazel."

She felt so in love with Joshua, he never gave up showing his love for her. He did everything for her, making sure every detail was perfect.

"Oh, Joshua…" After putting her ring back on, Hazel kissed him passionately.

When she pulled her head back, there was a faint flash of light in Joshua's eyes. He put his hand on the back of her head then kissed her even more intensity, he grabbed her h.i.p.s and pulled her closer.

She was confused, wondering why he was kissing her so harshly. It was until he lifted her onto the desk and pushed himself between her legs that she knew he wasn't stopping and something wasn't right.

"Joshua…" She tried to speak but couldn't.

"Looks like I didn't teach you very well last night," Joshua said with a sly grin. He took her hand and placed it on his belt, "What did you call me?"

When she finally realized what she had done wrong, her face blushed immediately. She quickly scrambled and whispered, "Honey…."

"Good girl." He chuckled. "I guess I should give you a reward." He put his hand over hers and helped her to start undoing his belt. Hazel's fingers trembled at the thought of what was about to happen. 

"Honey, don't do that." She lowered her head, wishing she could hide. "What if someone comes in?"

"Don't worry," he said, nibbling her ear. "I've told them not to bother us."

"But... hmm!" Before she could finish the sentence, he kissed her on the lips again.

***

Hazel leaned her head against Joshua's shoulder. She was completely worn out, so Joshua picked her up and laid her down on the sofa. He started getting dressed and smiled at her, but Hazel looked at him with resentment.

Joshua had seemed normal before, but why was he so insatiable since they got married. It had only been a day, and he was already talking about finding new positions.

"Work out with me later," Joshua said calmly as he walked toward his desk.

Hazel's eyes got big, and she mumbled through clenched teeth, "I've always been in great shape!"

Plus, she had been working with Crystal, so the martial arts techniques had gotten better. However, she knew she would not be able to keep up with Joshua. 

"Huh?" There was a bit of amus.e.m.e.nt in his eyes. "Shall we do it again?"

"No, no…" she quickly said and looked at him with envy. "Aren't you afraid you will run out of s.p.e.r.m?"

"I'm willing to try for my beauty." He joked. "Besides, I'm not in rough shape. Why don't we try again?"

"Be serious!" she said crossly.

Seeing Hazel's anger, he walked over and lightly embraced her. He took her face in his hands and softly said, "Honey, I have waited more than 20 years for you. I wish you could understand that every time I am around you, I just want to find new ways to love you."

"How can it be more than twenty years..." She was furious.

"You are my first and only woman. So, I have waited more than twenty years, right?" He chuckled.

Because of his commitment to the Crowe family's rules, Joshua had been using all of his willpower to control himself when he was near Hazel. However, since they were married and he could have her, he wanted nothing more than to tie her to the bed and make love for days on end.

Hazel's ears turned red, and she looked away awkwardly. She was afraid to say anything that might provoke Joshua again.

"What are you working on?" She tried to change the subject.

"I'm going to throw a party for you," he calmly explained.

"Party? What party?" she asked curiously.

"You are the daughter of the Denmark family, so I'm going to throw a party and announce it to everybody so that they know who you are."

"Do we really need to do that?" She struggled with the whole concept. In fact, she didn't like the idea at all, if they had a party, people like Hanson Bryant would be swooning all over her.

"Of course. It's very necessary." His expression became serious. "If we don't do it as soon as possible, I'm afraid more women with birthmarks will start to appear. Only by exposing your identity can we put an end to the claims. The party must happen soon and be before our big wedding."

Then he continued, as if he could read Hazel's thoughts, "Rest assured, I've planned the party. You just need to go through the motions. You are the daughter of Marcus and Cate, people are eager to be your friend and suck up in any way possible, but you don't need to give them your time and energy."

She was amused by Joshua, he was doing what was best for her. She finally agreed, "Alright, I'll take your advice and trust you."

After inviting the Crowe family to the party and Hazel told Rachel that she would pick out a dress for her. She knew that if Joshua had ordered a dress for her, she would not wear it, but this way, she would have a hard time refusing.

Just as Hazel arrived at the mall, she heard her phone ring. She looked at the number on the screen, sighed helplessly, and answered, "Simon King, can you please stop harassing me?"

Simon was constantly bothering Hazel. Even though she blocked his number, he would get a new number or call her from someone else's phone.

"Pumpkin, our hearts are truly connected." Simon chuckled, "You even know it is me calling."

"What do you want?" She was extremely annoyed.

"To take you away, of course," he said jokingly.

"Don't even think about it!" She was enraged and ready to hang up.

"Don't hang up," he stopped joking and said in a deep voice. "Pumpkin, I'm serious this time. Please, think about it and come with me."
