Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1382 - 670: Why Are They Together?

Then Harry and Rachel, who had already arrived at Joshua's villa, went to meet Ted.

Ted was hanging around the villa. He frowned sullenly at the couple who had suddenly appeared in front of him.

??

Rachel gave Ted a surprised look, then turned to look at Harry and saw the same surprise in his eyes.

"Are you Joshua's father?" she asked.

It wasn't surprising that she could figure it out at once. Ted and Joshua looked much alike.

Ted was about to lose his temper when Rachel and Harry stared at him, but when he heard Rachel's question, he realized that the two persons in front of him were supposed to be close to Joshua.

"... Yes. Who are you?" Ted said, trying to make himself look nice.

There was a quick flash of anger on Rachel's face.

Although neither Hazel nor Joshua told them exactly what caused Hazel's premature birth, they were not stupid. Joshua and Hazel had come to Country M to meet Joshua's father, and it was said that they were on bad terms. So Ted must have a lot to do with what happened to Hazel.

Rachel couldn't help feeling angry at the thought of it.

Harry took her hand quietly. Then she kept her temper. She could not directly scold him, but she must have embarrassed him.

"We're Hazel's parents," Rachel said coldly. "Since you're here, why don't you go in?"

"I…" Ted looked embarrassed and replied, "I don't have to go in there."

In the face of Hazel's parents, he felt even more guilty. After all, if he hadn't done so many things to give Hazel a hard time, she wouldn't have given birth prematurely.

"Come on in." Rachel lightly pushed Harry. Harry understood her meaning and pushed Ted's wheelchair.

Ted was even more terrified. He really didn't think he could enter the villa, following Harry and Rachel! However, he didn't expect that he would be very remorseful after going in.

The guards tried to stop Ted when they saw him, but Ted followed Harry and Rachel. Knowing the couple's identity, the guards finally didn't stop them.

Harry kept pushing Ted into the living room. Seeing the three of them walk in together, both Joshua and Hazel felt a little unreal.

Why are they together?

"Dad, mom…" Joshua and Hazel came to greet Harry and Rachel.

"Sit down, Hazel," Rachel said and helped Hazel sit down on the couch with a cold face.

Hazel sat nervously. It seemed to her that things would not be so simple.

Sure enough, the next moment, Rachel asked, "Joshua, how did you take care of Hazel?"

After that, Rachel directly scolded him, "... What did you promise when we gave you Hazel? You couldn't even protect your own wife and kid. How can you be such a father! Do you think being a father is as simple as you think it is, and you can just sit there doing nothing but moving your mouth…"

Ted felt extremely uneasy as Rachel scolded Joshua.

Although Rachel was scolding Joshua, he felt her words were, in fact, targeting him. He was like the useless 'father' Rachel talked about.

Thinking of this, he felt more ashamed.

Ted had never imagined that he would hear so much criticism in his life during this period of time. Besides, Rachel had nothing to do with him, so she didn't care about his thoughts. Almost every word she said sounded harsh and made him uncomfortable like a stab in his heart.

Of course, Rachel deliberately said those words to make Ted hear.

Joshua was a son-in-law who she and Harry liked very much. They both knew that Joshua could use his life to protect Hazel. They were angry that Hazel was in trouble, but they were able to understand his difficulties.

If Ted hadn't been here today, Rachel would have scolded Joshua with just a few words instead of severely rebuking him.

Joshua listened carefully, occasionally nodding his head in agreement. When Rachel's mouth was dry, he quickly handed her a glass of water.

Rachel drank the water, glanced at Ted, who was dying to vanish and stopped talking.

"Hazel, you're also to blame!" Rachel said with a straight face.

Hazel looked at her and whispered, with a wounded face, "Mom."

Joshua hurried to protect her behind him and said lightly, "Mom, Hazel just gave birth. It isn't good for her to be emotional. If you want to teach her a lesson, you can just teach me a..."

Rachel felt helpless. She hadn't intended to say anything harsh to Hazel. Moreover, since Hazel looked so pathetic now, she didn't have the heart to scold her at all.

"I just wanted to say, you've just given birth, why don't you go to lie down and have a good rest!" said Rachel as her face darkened.

"I've been lying on my back for days," Hazel said in a low voice, wounded. "I've just got out of bed…."

"Rachel," Joshua whispered, "It's okay for Hazel to walk around. And there's a doctor who's been staying here to examine Hazel's body. By the way, would you like to see Randy first?"

"Randy? Is that the name of my grandson?" Rachel's eyes lit up, and she was clearly drawn to the subject.

Joshua smiled and nodded. "Yes."

After that, he asked a servant to take Randy Denmark here.

Rachel hugged Randy tenderly and smiled happily.

"By the way, we have bought some presents for little Randy," said Harry.

With that, he took out twelve different sets of children's clothing which Randy could wear in four seasons.

When Ted saw them, his eyes flashed with a hint of disgust.

"They aren't expensive," said Harry, laughing. "We know you have everything Randy needs, but they are a token of our regard. We hope the baby can grow up safely and healthily."

"It's a nice present, we love it," Joshua began lightly. "You're right, Harry. The value of a present is decided by the heart instead of the price."

Ted was somehow ashamed. He felt that what he had just thought really showed he was very superficial.

"I've got presents for the kid, too," he said with somewhat embarrassment.

The other few people were surprised. Harry paused and then broke the weird silent atmosphere with a cough. "In that case, you can bring them in for him."
