Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1172 - 460: It Will Satisfy You

Downstairs, Katie had fled in a panic, but naturally, the media would not let her go so quickly. They followed her closely behind.

Katie hadn't had much contact with the press, but she did have contact. Because of the relationship of her identity, she had been a noble lady in front of the media. As for the fact that she was a mistress's daughter, she had always kept it a secret.

Besides, the events of the Shawn family were basically decided by Grandma Shawn, whom Katie usually tried hard to curry favor with, so other members in the Shawn family dared not say much about it outside.

Now, however, Joshua let out the secret and exposed Katie's worst fears to the public.

Hazel could even imagine lots of shady secrets of the Shawn family would be revealed by the media with Joshua's 'consent.' After all, the secrets of this kind of wealthy family were the most popular topic of conversation after dinner.

Either way, that was good. Katie was so busy with the media that she shouldn't have much energy to pester Joshua anymore.

Joshua looked at Hazel at the window and smiled. "You want me to show tenderness to a woman?"

"Don't you dare! "Hazel said angrily, turning around.

Joshua laughed and rubbed the tip of her nose. Her deep star eyes were full of deep affection. "Honey, I would only show tenderness to you."

Hazel smiled. Just now, she just said that casually. She didn't really like Katie Shawn.

"It's just two days before the party," she said with a twinkle in her eye. "I'm really looking forward to it."

"It will satisfy you," Joshua said meaningfully.

***

Soon, the day of the party came. The party was held in Denmark Group's hotel with top-class security.

Joshua took Hazel to the hotel before the party, where he had prepared a special dressing room for her.

The world's top team he had brought in spent the whole afternoon helping Hazel style. After that, Hazel changed into a dress that Joshua had prepared for her.

It was a snow-blue dress made especially for her, with a beautiful train studded with countless diamonds. The dress on him made her look like a princess coming out of a fairy tale.

Joshua was waiting for her. His eyes narrowed as he saw her walk out of the fitting room.

"Does it look good?" she asked shyly, her heart pounding.

Joshua got up from the sofa without a word, walked up to her, and directly took her hand.

"Honey, let's go home," he said earnestly.

"Huh?!" She looked at him in astonishment. There was a flash of panic in her eyes. "Is the dress ugly? Or which part of it is improper..."

"No, it's very pretty, and it fits you very well." There was a flash of fire in his eyes, and he sighed uncontrollably. "But you're so beautiful that I'd like to lock you up for the rest of your life and let me appreciate your beauty alone."

She came to her senses and smiled shyly. It turned out that it was Joshua's possessiveness.

Looking at the desire in his eyes, her heart was sweet. She didn't know what Joshua would do if the situation continued.

"I am yours, to begin with..." she whispered coyly.

Joshua's mouth tilted slightly upward at the corners. Her words satisfied him greatly. He leaned over her a little passionately, but before he could kiss her lips, she put her hands against his chest.

"I sweet talk to you. Stop playing now," she said, holding back her coyness in the heart. "Has the party begun? You go to find my parents and my brother first. I'm afraid they won't be used to the occasion..."

"... Good." He sighed reluctantly. "I'll pick you up later."

"Mmm." She nodded.

After he left, the makeup artist continued to help her put on ornaments.

Beautiful diamond necklace, earrings, bracelet, and so on. Joshua had prepared a whole outfit to match this dress.

After that, she left the dressing room for the party without waiting for Joshua.

***

The party was downstairs and had begun for a while. Katie helped Grandma Shawn walk into the hall, fawning on the guests with a fake smile on her face.

She had had a really bad life these days. The Shawn family was being chased by the paparazzi, and her whole identity was revealed. It wasn't that she hadn't thought of paying to silence the reporters, but it didn't work at all.

Now her image had plummeted, but she knew her only chance of turning it around was to grasp Joshua's heart firmly. As long as she could be with Joshua, nothing would matter.

Therefore, she tried her best to curry favor with Grandma Shawn and blamed all her mistakes on Callie, so Grandma Shawn didn't change her mind to bring her to the party.

But Katie didn't expect her friends to show up too! It left Katie furious and confused. Those women weren't even qualified for this party, so they buttered her up like that before.

But now, they treated her as if she was the plague, and they all ran away without waiting for her to ask questions.

Furthermore, what made her even angrier was that she saw Callie also came and that she was accompanying Grandpa Anderson. As Isaac's fiancée, Callie was certainly qualified to be here. Also, she didn't even have to get Grandma Shawn's permission, making Katie feel pretty unhappy.

"Katie," Grandma Shawn said, "I think that Childe Flores is quite good, and so is Childe Lynch…."

Katie came to her senses. She looked at Grandma Shawn, surprised. According to what she said, she was planning to arrange a commercial marriage for her? And all those men Grandma Shawn had talked about were so ugly and fat. She didn't want to take a second look at them.

She said quickly, "Grandma, I'm still young..."

"Young?" Grandma Shawn sneered. "Do you think you still can find an excellent husband after all this?? The people who can attend the party are not ordinary. It's an honor for them to take a fancy to you. Do you think you have another choice?"

Katie's heart was filled with bitter anger. No wonder the old lady was willing to bring her here. It turned out she had thought she was of little use and wanted to sell her for a good price before it was too late.

"Grandma, these people are nice, but they're not the best choice, are they?" Katie clenched her teeth.

"Oh? Who do you take a fancy to?" Grandma Shawn asked sarcastically.

"Don't you think that person is the best choice?" Katie said in a deep tone. She was willing to risk everything. Things had come to this point. She must be with Joshua as soon as possible, even if she might have to use all kinds of dirty tricks.
