Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 791 - 79: Close Your Eyes

"It doesn't make sense!" Vanessa objected. "If we find her, then the Denmark Group would be returned to the woman. If so, then what is the use of my marrying Joshua? "

"Vanessa, be rest assured." Garry comforted her, "After we find the woman, we will use her to threaten Joshua but not let her take over the Denmark Group. As long as we have her in our hands, we will make Joshua marry you."

"What if we can't find her?" Vanessa was worried.

"If we really can't find her," Garry said maliciously, "I'll make someone be her!"

Vanessa's eyes lit up, she believed her father. Then she asked curiously, "Mom, how was the daughter of the Denmark family lost?"

Mabel recalled, "It seemed that when she was born, she was taken away by the enemy of the Denmark family. It was a piece of big news when it happened. They looked for her for a long time but never found any trace of her."

"Oh." Vanessa nodded her head and did not keep asking.

Kenny caught up with Joshua just as he and Hazel were leaving the hospital.

"Joshua," He called.

They stopped.

"Anything else?" Joshua asked him.

Kenny looked at Hazel. She understood the situation and said to Joshua, "Well, I'll wait for you in the car."

She walked to the car to wait while Kenny and Joshua spoke.

"Joshua, are you telling the truth?" Kenny was a little hesitant to speak, but he finally asked him.

"Kenny, we have been friends for so many years, aren't you clear about who I am?" Joshua sighed, "And remember, don't tell Hazel those rumors that have not been confirmed."

"Did she tell you that?" Kenny was awkward.

"No. I guessed so." It was not hard to guess what had happened.

"Sorry, Joshua." Kenny was embarrassed. "But this time, could you please let them off? Vanessa could not accept the reality and may lose her mind."

"You need to clarify with her more these days." Joshua then changed his attitude, "But if they have further actions, I won't be as nice as this time."

Kenny did not say a word.

Joshua walked away and got into the car. He took Hazel's hand and apologized, "Sorry Hazel, I should not have brought you here."

If she hadn't come with Joshua, she would not have been exposed to their harsh attitude.

Hazel shook her head, "If I weren't here, I would make blind and unclear assumptions myself. What's more, what if you were not determined and agreed to marry her?"

"You don't trust me?" Joshua smiled slightly, "You are the only one I want to marry." Joshua suddenly looked at her fondly.

Hazel blushed. Why did he suddenly say that to her?

"I need to get home now." Hazel urged him.

"You haven't had supper yet." Joshua smiled, "are you hungry?"

"No." Hazel pretends to be angry. However, her stomach growled.

Hazel felt awkward.

"Let's go and have something to eat first," Joshua said to her gently.

He took Hazel to a villa halfway up a hill located in the suburbs.

Hazel got out of the car, and the first thing she noticed was a fragrant odor from the nearby flowers.

She looked around in surprise, there was a beautiful flower field only a few steps from the car.

"Roses! Look at all of them!" She exclaimed with joy and excitement.

She did not expect to see such a field of roses here, the fragrance spread in the wind, which made her feel relaxed and happy.

"Unfortunately, we are not here in the daytime." Hazel sighed. Although the lights here were bright, there would be a better view during the day.

"I had planned to bring you here in the daytime," Joshua said.

"Ah?" Hazel looked at him surprisingly.

"I remembered today is Thanksgiving Day." He continued, "I have prepared a surprise for you..."

But Hazel had given him quite a shock the moment he returned, and then the disastrous situation with Vanessa arose.

Hazel was awkward; she changed the topic, "Is this your home?"

"Yes." He nodded.

"How come you planted roses here? Were they for a certain person?" Hazel said jealously. After all, roses represented love.

"Not me," Joshua explained. "My father planted them to please my mom. After they passed away, I hired people to take care of this place so it would not go to waste."

"Your father must love your mother very much," Hazel said emotionally.

Joshua looked at her affectionately.

For some moments, he had the impulse to tell her everything.

But he couldn't.

He had to keep the secret to himself for her safety.

"Let's go, aren't you hungry? Joshua held her hand to walk into the villa. The servant led them to the balcony on the second floor.

There was a table with bright red candles, delicate roses, and delicious food freshly prepared.

Candlelight Dinner?

Hazel was surprised to see all of the work that Joshua put into the surprise. She sat down, and the red candle made her cheeks redder.

The servant came forward and poured the red wine into the goblet.

Hazel looked worriedly, she whispered, "It would probably be better if I do not drink."

Last time she was drunk and made a fool of herself.

"Don't worry about getting drunk this time." Joshua must have heard what she was thinking.

"What is the percentage of alcohol in this wine, very small?" She asked.

"I mean, it doesn't matter if you are drunk. You can stay here." He chuckled.

Hazel was left speechless and suddenly felt silly. It was not like she had to drink it all. What was she worrying about?

She took a sip. After the original astringent taste, she felt sweet and mellow of the red wine.

She then picked up the knife and fork to start to eat her meal. With all the commotion, she had not eaten anything since lunch, and she was desperately hungry.

Just as they were about to finish their meal, the sky lit up. Beautiful fireworks were changing the color of the roses below them with each bang.

Looking at the bright light in her eyes, Joshua smiled.

"When did you prepare all of this?" Hazel looked at him happily and asked after the fireworks show finished.

"I had everything arranged well before I came back," Joshua said slowly. He felt somewhat disappointed because he had prepared many other activities for her, but he was climbing the balcony when it was time for those activities.

"Is this a gift for me?" Hazel asked with joy.

"It's just a small part." Joshua smiled. "I had planned to send you a few sets of old exams for the Graduate Record Examination."

"What?" Hazel looked at him ruefully, "why are you so bad to me?"

"Close your eyes," Joshua said to her.

"What do you want to do?" Hazel was alert.
