Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 870 - 158: Don’t Be Afraid

The Crowe family raised her, and she was like their own daughter. She could not bring the Crowe family in it. If she did, she would feel constantly unsettled.

Hazel had been hiding in her room, not even going to have dinner.

Early in the evening, Harry and Rachel came home. They did not say much to Hazel, assuming she was still angry, but they did suggest Ronald should take her some dinner.

Hazel didn't have any appetite to eat, so she told Ronald to take it away. She figured that her parents would be returning to their room. She picked up her phone and put her earphones into her ears.

Harry's voice came, and he said helplessly. "You said that Hazel didn't even eat dinner, it seems that she is furious this time."

"Don't worry about her, she will eat when she is hungry." Rachel said. "I raised her and knew her temper. This girl won't hurt herself."

Hazel burst into tears. Rachel knew her, and she really intended to wait for them to sleep and then go to the kitchen to find food.

"But keeping a situation like this is not a way," Harry frowned. "Hazel is serious this time. She is afraid that she really fell in love with Joshua."

"What is falling in love? I think she was poisoned by romantic drama and a love story!" She said with dissatisfaction. "Even if Joshua is now true to her, what about the future? The higher she stands, the more attacks she will bear. How could she cope?"

Rachel continued to say, "We can't help her anymore. Can we let her be terrorized? Instead of letting her face the situation in the future, I would rather she find someone who is suitable. Someone who is safe and peaceful for the rest of her life. If her husband terrorizes her, at least we can help her out!"

Hazel's heart was warm. It turned out that was the reason her parents insisted on disapproving of her and Joshua? They disagreed just because they loved her and worried about her.

She just thought about being angry with them and never thought about talking to them. Hazel began to blame herself.

"The child is old enough, and she has her own ideas. Then we need to communicate with her slowly." Harry sighed. "Just we don't know when we can successfully find Hazel's biological parents."

Hazel was stunned and confused. What did they do for her biological parents?

"Harry, in fact, I am very opposing," She was very conflicted. "I want to find them, and I don't want to find them. Do you remember the situation when we picked up Hazel?"

"Of course. I remember." Harry sighed sadly. "She was so small at the time.

Her body was blue, and she spent a month in the hospital before she passed the difficult period. If we were too late, she might have been saved."

"She was so small and suffered so much. Looking at her struggling to live, I swore that I would baby her and not let her suffer even in a little bit of pain." Tears were rolling down Rachel's face, "Can you say for sure that she was abandoned by her parents? What were they so worried about?"

"If Hazel was really abandoned, we should let her parents see that Hazel is alive and healthy. She is lovely and very smart!"

Harry went to Rachel and rubbed her shoulder, "Rachel, we decided to send Hazel to the city to go to school, not caring what kind of parents they were but just hoping she could have a chance to meet them."

"Whether they are good or bad people, we are not for them, but for Hazel. Hazel has the right to know where she came from and who her biological parents are. Even if Hazel wants to go back to her biological parent's home, we should also support her. For this reason, we should help her find her parents."

"I know, but I don't want to," Rachel said, through the tears. "We have been raising Hazel for so many years, and I fear that she will suffer. What if she acknowledges her biological parents and they mistreat her?"

"Then we can't bear it," Harry said righteously. "Even if they acknowledge Hazel, she is still our daughter! No matter the reason, they owe Hazel, but she does not owe them. If they dare to mistreat her, we will take Hazel back and end the relationship with them!"

"You are right," Rachel said, holding her tears. "Even if Hazel is acknowledged, she is also our daughter."

Hazel took out her earphones and was crying. It turned out that her parents changed their mind to stay in the city, entirely for her. They had put her before themselves, thinking only of her.

They wanted to help her find her parents and even worried that she would be hurt. They had not considered themselves. She treated them so hurtfully and was so angry, pulling, breaking their hearts over and over.

They saved her life and raised her for twenty years, but she did not show any appreciation in return. Harry and Rachel would even support her if she wanted to find her own biological parents.

Their love for her is so selfless, how could she involve the Crowe family in a dangerous situation?

She couldn't do it. The tears couldn't stop falling.

Hazel was feeling distraught as she took out her phone to call Joshua.

"Hazel, what happened?"

She heard Joshua's gentle voice on the other end, but she only felt that her chest was heavy and was so upset that she could not breathe.

She covered her mouth tightly and feared that she would scream if she moved her hand.

"Hazel, don't be afraid. What is the matter? Say it slowly." Joshua's heart was uneasy as he gently persuaded her to speak.

Taking a deep breath, Hazel trembled, "Joshua, I think you are right."

"What?" He was amazed.

"Family members have never been tied with blood relations," tears rolling down one by one, Hazel said, "My parents, they really love me."

After finding out they were not her biological parents, she didn't know how to face them. When they did arrive suddenly, they wanted to rip her and Joshua apart, so she became furious. She now realized that even if she wasn't the biological daughter of Crowe, it shouldn't affect their relationship. After all, Rachel, Harry, and Ronald were the closest people to her.

Joshua was still feeling uneasy. He always had a feeling that Hazel would say something he did not want to hear. He whispered, "Hazel, I love you too."

Hazel felt her heart being torn, and she never thought that she would have to choose between her parents and Joshua.

Holding back the tears, she whispered and asked, "Joshua, can I be Hazel for my whole life?"
