Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1268 - 556: He Couldn’t Wait Anymore

The night was very romantic.

Joshua moved gently, afraid that he might hurt the baby in her belly.

But they hadn't had sex in months, so their bodies missed each other very much. Joshua wouldn't be so restrained for a whole night if it weren't for the fact that he cared about Hazel's body. But even so, he still coveted her body.

Joshua was in a trance. He couldn't figure out why Hazel fit in so well with him and why he knew her so well.

Some vague images rushed into his mind. He tried to see them clearly, but nothing came to his mind.

They had a night of fun, but poor Simon spent the whole night looking for them.

Simon didn't expect that, even though he had taken over the organization, Ted would still be secretly so powerful.

Indeed, he ought not to despise his father.

However, the longer it took, the more dangerous Hazel's situation would become. He wasn't worried Joshua would do something to Hazel. He was worried... what if Hazel didn't fall into Joshua's hands?

Simon could still sense that Ted didn't like Hazel and would show her no mercy.

He couldn't wait anymore!

Simon waved his hands and asked his men to bring Madeline over.

Madeline was tortured into a sleepless night, and now she appeared very gaunt.

"Speak! Where have you hidden, Joshua and Hazel?!" Simon asked coldly.

Madeline was relieved to hear his question. It looked like although Joshua had abducted Hazel, he hadn't thought of the past. Otherwise, he would have taken Hazel back to the Denmark family.

That meant she still had the chance to be with Joshua!

"You're wrong," Madeline said, clenching her teeth. "Joshua is free. We don't hide him. I told you why he abducted Hazel. Simon King, are you still unwilling to face the truth?! Joshua doesn't want her or love her anymore! The longer she's in Joshua's hands, the more dangerous her situation will be!"

"You're going to die, but you're still so stubborn?!" Simon's face darkened. Madeline wasn't that tough in the past. What had happened to give her such confidence?

"If you want to know if I'm stubborn, why don't you allow me to contact them and see if he is willing to exchange hostages?" A bright light flashed in Madeline's eyes.

Simon's face grew darker. Of course, he didn't believe Joshua would hand over Hazel for Madeline. However, if Simon agreed to exchange hostages, perhaps Simon could see Joshua soon. If Joshua was really being threatened by Ted, Simon could also try to rescue Joshua.

"What's his current number?" Simon said in a deep tone.

"Give me the phone, and I'll contact him." Madeline gritted her teeth.

"What are you up to?" Simon asked with a grave expression.

"What can I do now that I am in your hands?" Madeline sneered, "Simon, you've always looked down on me. But you're even afraid of me now, aren't you?"

"I'm afraid of you?" Simon gave her a sidelong glance. "Give her the phone."

Madeline held the phone and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But instead of calling Joshua, she called Ted.

Ted, who had always been very thoughtful, was very furious when he learned that Joshua had caught Hazel. Then Ted made a phone call to Joshua.

Joshua was awake. He had not been so contented in months as he had been last night, as if the empty space in his heart was gradually filled.

He kissed Hazel in the eyes. This kind of feeling of being with her warmed his heart.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated.

He frowned, got out of bed quietly, picked up the phone, and went out of the room.

"Mr. King, what happened?" Joshua went to the study and spoke coldly.

"Joshua, have you forgotten what I told you?!" Ted blew his stack. "I dispatch you to Country Z to find a way to bring your younger brother home! But what do you do? You actually caught a woman! And the woman is having an affair with your brother! What's more, she is pregnant. How can you sleep with such a two-timer?"

"Mr. King," Joshua said with a chill in his voice, "Please respect her. I don't care what you think of her, but don't let me hear you speak disparagingly of her anymore!"

"You...!" Ted was furious. He didn't expect that Joshua would still get entangled with Hazel, even if Joshua had lost his memory. Besides, Hazel was pregnant, but she still slept with Joshua last night, which made Ted despise her even more.

Although he hadn't been with Joshua for a long time, Ted knew clearly that Joshua was very stubborn. If Joshua had made up his mind, he would never change his mind. Now, Joshua considered Hazel his woman.

"Joshua, what do you want?" Ted asked, a little helpless. He wanted at least to find out what Joshua thought about Hazel and whether Joshua must want to own her.

"I'm helping you," Joshua said flatly. "I'm taking Hazel home. Since you say Simon cares about her, of course, he will follow Hazel and me and come to Country M. And then, Mr. King, you'll be reunited with your son."

"You..." Ted's face turned even more sullen. Joshua actually planned to bring Hazel home? Additionally, Joshua had such a seemingly legitimate reason! It looked like Joshua didn't care whom Hazel was with or even who her baby's father was. This woman is really capable!

In that case, Ted wouldn't be polite anymore! He could not watch his two sons fight each other for a woman!

"You can bring her home if you want," Ted said in a deep tone, "but you have to do something for me first."

"What is it?" Joshua frowned slightly.

"Don't worry, it's not about your brother," Ted said. "I'll give you some information about several companies, and you must bring them down in two days."

"Have these companies offended you?" Joshua asked, his eyebrows forming a knot. Ted suddenly asked him to do this, so Joshua was kind of confused.

"Don't worry about that," Ted replied in a deep tone. "You just need to do that."

"Alright." Joshua nodded in agreement.

Ted sent the related documents to Joshua via email, and Joshua started reading them.

While Joshua was busy in his study, Ted called Joshua's current assistant, Barry Watson.
