Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1173 - 461: Think About It

Grandma Shawn's face changed a little. Of course, she knew what Katie was talking about was Joshua Denmark. She glared at Katie. "How dare you even have your eye on being with him?"

"Why not?" Katie whispered, "Grandma, I know what you're scared of. Yes, they say Master Denmark and Hazel Crowe are lovers, but so what? I think it's because he wanted to own the Denmark Group more legitimately, so he pretended to be affectionate toward her in front of others. After all, how can a man like him be without women?"

Some hesitation appeared on Grandma Shawn's face.

"Think about it," Katie then persuaded her, "as long as I'm with Master Denmark, even if I can't stand by his side in public, cannot he bring more benefits to the Shawn family than Childe Flores or Childe Lynch?"

Grandma Shawn was clearly convinced, but she looked suspiciously at Katie. "I hear he doesn't get close to women at all. How can you approach him?"

Katie sneered. "Though he doesn't get close to women, he is also a man. Don't we understand men? Besides, we are not entitled to approach him, but that little bitch… cough cough, my sister has access to him, doesn't she? There will be a good chance today if she is willing to help us. What do you think?"

Grandma Shawn was totally convinced by her, or to be exact, she was so infatuated with Katie's fantasy of being with Joshua that she didn't even think about the consequences of failure.

"Good..." Grandma Shawn's face darkened. "I'll get you a chance to talk to your sister so you can ask her to help you."

"Don't worry, grandma!" Katie's eyes gleamed with expectations.

Soon, Grandma Shawn went to Callie and chatted with her as an elder. Katie swept across the crowd, eagerly searching for Joshua.

Since she saw Joshua, she had really yearned to meet him again. But the party had already started. Why hadn't he showed up?

All of a sudden, Katie's pupils shrank, and she looked at the door angrily.

There were two women in the world she hated most. One was Callie Shawn, and the other was Hazel Crowe, who was now at the door, ready to enter the room.

Hazel got dressed and went straight downstairs.

As soon as she appeared at the door, the hall fell silent momentarily.

Hazel looked really too beautiful. She was as pretty as a fairy in heaven, and the people present couldn't take their eyes off her.

Hazel, who had never faced such a situation before, blushed a little.

The crowd couldn't resist gasping.

If Hazel looked like a painting before, the way she blushed just now made her look cute and alive.

Simon lurked in the corner of the party. His sinister eyes fell on Hazel.

This girl really brought him surprises whenever she emerged. His heart ached inexplicably at the thought of what she was about to face.

But... His fingers tightened slightly, and his heart hardened again. This time, he must not relent, even if he knew what was going to happen.

Hazel didn't notice him. She looked through the crowd for Joshua. Now she just wanted Joshua to be around her.

But… he was actually not here?

Hazel was slightly stunned, but the next moment, she became calm.

This was a dinner party Joshua especially threw for her, and she mustn't screw it up. Joshua had invited an etiquette teacher for her the other day, so she wasn't utterly clueless about everything.

With a quiet, polite smile on her face, she slowly walked into the banquet hall.

Katie grit her teeth. How dare this woman show up at this banquet? And she attracted all the people's attention without doing anything, so how could she not hate her?

The next moment, she had already made her way through the crowd to stop Hazel angrily.

"Stop, what do you think you are? How dare you come here! You have no right to cause trouble on such an occasion!" Katie snapped. She had thought it over. Since Hazel attracted attention, she was going to make her lose face in public!

Hazel stopped and couldn't help cocking an eyebrow. Katie Shawn actually didn't know who she was?

Although Katie had met Hazel several times, coincidentally, she still didn't know Hazel's name and identity until now. She really thought Hazel was Joshua's secret mistress and stayed with him as an assistant.

Once one's prejudice was formed, it would be deeply rooted. Therefore, Katie didn't realize the woman standing in front of her and being stopped by her was an actress, the star of this banquet— Hazel, the Denmark family's lost daughter.

"What am I?" Hazel asked, with a half-smile.

The dispute had already attracted Grandma Shawn's attention. Callie had seen Hazel before, so her face paled when she saw this scene. She hurried to walk over with Grandma Shawn.

"Katie, what's going on?" Grandma Shawn asked crossly.

"Grandma, as you know, Master Denmark is holding this party for the Denmark family's daughter, but this woman actually wants to make trouble!" Katie said indignantly.

The other people were at a loss because many of them knew Hazel. Then they turned to look at Katie. What was wrong with this woman? Hazel was the center of this party. How could she make trouble in her own place?

But Katie thought she had attracted all the attention, which made her even prouder.

"Who is she?" Grandma Shawn asked, confused.

"Hey! I advise you to get out of here quickly." Katie looked at Hazel scornfully. "I'm going to give you a face. If I do tell others who you are here, do you think you'll still have the nerve to walk out of your house?"

"I'm getting more and more curious," Hazel said with a sneer on her lips. "Tell me what my identity is."

"Why are you so shameless?!" Katie looked exasperated. "Do you really think you use the identity of Master Denmark's assistant to cover up so that people don't know you're Master Denmark's mistress? Do you think it's an honor to be a mistress? You're a mistress destroying the relationship between Master Denmark and Miss Crowe!"

The hall was in an uproar. It really refreshed their worldview. But what shocked them was not Katie's words, but her stupidity...

How could there be such an idiot woman who accused Hazel of being her own mistress at her party?!
