Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1353 - 641: You’re Too Slow

The room was in total darkness.

Mandy, who had sneaked into the room, had a little guilty conscience. For some reason, she felt something was wrong because things went too well.

But… since things had gone to this point, she had no room for regret. She must seize today's opportunity!

She held out her hand to turn on the light but suddenly stopped; it was so dark here that it was very convenient for her.

Then she groped her way to the bedside. Looking at the figure of the man on the bed, she stood with mixed feelings.

But the next moment, she did not hesitate to take off her clothes, then lifted the quilt on the bed and slipped into it.

"Pa!" All the lights in the room lit up in an instant. Mandy felt her arm was ripped! The sudden brightness dazzled her. Startled, she tried to free herself, but in the blink of an eye, she was wrapped in a blanket from head to toe.

Then she heard a loud, happy laugh.

"I won, Joshua!" Simon smirked and held many down with great force.

"Alright, I'll give you the key to the sports car right now," Joshua's patient voice sounded.

"I told you I was better at dealing with women than you!" Simon scoffed. "Women like Mandy are always ambitious. Faced with the chance to be alone with you, how could she possibly choose revenge?"

Mandy, wrapped in the blanket, felt furious. This, this was actually really a trap?! Besides, wasn't Joshua in bed? It was Simon.

Worse still, they actually bet on her? Do they bet whether she would choose to take her revenge or crawl into the bed?

Thinking of this, Mandy was really about to spit blood.

But then the thin carpet was removed from her face, and several men seized her and tied her to a chair.

"It has been a long time since we last met, Miss Wilson." Simon looked at her with a half-smile. "Thanks for helping me win a sports car."

"You..." Mandy looked at Simon. She was almost despairing. It was not that she hadn't thought that this might be a trap, but after she learned that Cynthia also wanted to get entangled with Joshua, Mandy couldn't care too much.

In addition, the person she arranged took the picture while Cynthia was pushed out of the room. When Mandy saw the figure of the man in the photo, she confirmed that it was Joshua undoubtedly!

But now she realized that she had been completely deceived! The man was Simon instead of Joshua. They were so similar in shape that the ordinary people couldn't tell them apart at all. Besides, the people photographing didn't take a clear picture of the man's face.

But why did Simon call her Miss Wilson? How did he recognize her?!

"Who is Miss Wilson... I don't know what you're talking about..." Mandy gritted her teeth. No matter what happened now, she wouldn't admit it!

Simon was about to speak when the door creaked open. Joshua came in. Simon had stayed in the room instead of him. In fact, Joshua hadn't been far away. He waited for next door in disguise in order to cooperate with Simon from outside, setting Mandy an easy target to catch. Even when Joshua waited, he and Simon had been on the phone.

Mandy looked at Joshua with endless hatred in her eyes!

"You're too slow," Simon said with displeasure.

Joshua reached out and threw him a car key. "Here you are."

Simon answered with a chuckle and put the car key in his pocket.

Joshua was more or less amused. Since childhood, Simon had been living an extravagant life and had driven more sports cars than Joshua. However, Simon was actually so happy because he beat Joshua once.

"What are you going to do with this woman?" Simon pointed to Mandy.

"I, I'm not..." Mandy opened her mouth, wanting to explain.

"Leave her here and send her to the old man tomorrow," said Joshua with an indifferent air.

Mandy's whole face contorted because her words were ignored. "I'm not the Mandy Wilson that you're talking about. I just ran into the wrong room. Why did you arrest me?"

Simon looked back at her mockingly. "Miss Wilson, when did we say you were Mandy?"

Mandy felt a basin of icy water pouring down her head, and she was despairing instantly.

Simon had only called her Miss Wilson before and had never called her first name at all! She, who they had ignored, was so angry that she confessed without torture!

"Enough, keep an eye on her tonight," Joshua said to Simon. "I'll go home."

"Why me again!" Simon retorted with a grievance.

"Hazel needs me to take care of her," Joshua spoke lightly.

"Okay, enough, you can leave." Simon waved his hand.

"Joshua!" Mandy stopped him, unwilling to give up. "When you saw those videos, didn't you doubt her at all?"

She was really unwilling to admit her defeat and was completely confused. Now she was caught, and they knew who she was early on; that meant Joshua didn't believe the videos from the very beginning! She had done so much, sleeping with so many men, but it actually didn't work at all?! How could she possibly accept it?

"Why should I doubt?" Joshua looked at Mandy coldly. It was the first time he had looked at Mandy in her eyes after entering.

The next moment, he frowned. "You're so ugly. How can you possibly be comparable to my Hazel?"

"You..." Mandy almost cried with anger.

Simon tried hard not to burst into laughter. Mandy's plastic surgery was a great success, and now her face looked almost exactly like Hazel's. However, Joshua could still genuinely think Mandy's face was ugly and couldn't be compared with Hazel's at all. It was the power of love expected.

"Let me walk you to the door." Simon cheerfully went to see Joshua off.

At the door, they had eye contact.

"Be careful at night," Joshua whispered.

"I know that," Simon said, his eyes flashing with a touch of coldness. "I'm really looking forward to seeing them come to save her."

Joshua patted him on the shoulder, saying nothing more.

He drove back to the villa. Back in the bedroom, he found Hazel sleeping peacefully.

As he approached the bed, she opened her eyes.

"You're back!" she asked, bleary-eyed.

"I've woken you up?" He spoke guiltily.

"No... I've been up all night because you're not around," she whispered. "Have you caught her?"

"Yes." He kissed her on the forehead. "Go to sleep. I'll take a bath."

She nodded, but when he came out of the bathroom, he saw that she was still waiting for him.

He lay beside her, gently holding her in his arms. "What are you worried about?"
