Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 954 - 242: Do You Want To Teach Me A Lesson?

"It's okay, I needed to get up anyway." Hazel smiled. "Are you looking for something?"

"... um." Theresa twisted her fingers, Hazel knew she had something difficult to say.

Hazel opened the door so Theresa could step in and then closed the door behind her, she encouraged. "If you have to tell me something, just say it."

Theresa took a deep breath, and she said, "My parents want to see you..."

"Why do they want to see me?" Hazel asked strangely. "Do they want to teach me a lesson?"

"No," Theresa said in a hurry. "They said that the shopping matter was their fault, and they wanted to apologize to you."

"Apologize?" Hazel was surprised and wide-eyed. According to Lanny and Caroline's temper, it was better for her not to see them, but they actually wanted to apologize? It was too misleading.

"My mom said so," Theresa said, a little embarrassed.

"What do you think? They really want to apologize or want to lie to me and then find me to teach a lesson?" Hazel asked.

"They didn't tell me what they're going to do, but my parents are not the ones who suffered the loss at all. I don't see it being possible for them to apologize." Theresa analyzed, "but they will not lie to you. I guess they will be asking for your help."

"Is there something I help them with?" Hazel frowned slightly. That was more likely, and it would make it possible for Lanny to take the initiative to bow to her. It seemed that it was the only possibility. She nodded. "Well, then I will see them."

"Do you really want to see them?" Theresa looked at her with some concern.

"I must see them," Hazel sighed. "If I don't go, I assume they will come to find me."

If she gave the Flores family the opportunity to create trouble, they would, and it would only become worse than it already was.

Hazel asked Theresa to contact her family and meet her in a restaurant's private room. The Flores family appeared to be calmer and more restrained. Although Caroline, despite Hazel, was still showing kindness, "Hazel, come and sit."

Seeing that Caroline actually helped her by pulling out the chair, Hazel was even more astonished. What kind of help did the Flores family want from her, and they would actually endure this?

"Mrs. Flores," Hazel said, "What's the matter? Just say it!"

"You, why do you call me Mrs. Flores?" said Caroline. "You can call me aunt.

You are still angry about the incident at the mall. That was really our fault."

Hazel looked at them, and she said calmly. "You don't need to go through all these formalities, we don't get along, and I am fine with that. So, just tell me what you want."

Caroline could not maintain the fake smile on her face when she realized that Hazel would not show them any respect.

Lanny tugged on Caroline's sleeve, and she sat down with overwhelming anger. She took a deep breath and looked sad. "Hazel, we are already planning to leave."

"Leave?" Hazel was somewhat shocked.

They did not tell Theresa this. Hazel did not ask Joshua, so she did not know.

"Yeah," Lanny sighed. "We are coming to you today, just to ask you to help us with favor."

Hazel looked at them with amazement.

"We want to meet Joshua once," Caroline covered her eyes and shouted.

"He has grown up, but I haven't seen him yet. If I go back like this, I will regret it all my life..."

Lanny took out a package of cigarettes and started smoking.

Hazel slightly frowned. Their request was not excessive, and she had no reason to refuse. She said in a deep voice, "I will discuss with Joshua..."

"No, no!" Caroline stopped crying, and she quickly said, "He doesn't want to see us. If you call and ask him, he will definitely refuse!"

They promised Joshua to take the money and leave. If Joshua found out that they changed their minds, then they would be forced to leave with nothing.

Hazel frowned, "What do you want me to do then?"

"You can't just take us to the Denmark's House?" Lanny crushed the cigarette in his hand.

Hazel frowned even more, and it seemed that the Flores family wanted her to force a reunion upon Joshua. He did not want to see them, and if she did that, wouldn't it make him extremely upset?

Seeing that Hazel was hesitating, Caroline began to dry up again. "Hazel, you won't promise me, and it is killing me! If I can't see my son, what reason do I have to live…"

Caroline got up and was going to a wall, but Lanny swiftly grabbed her and held her.

The two of them cried, made demands, and were still talking about dying; it made Hazel's headache even worse. Although she knew they were pretending, she would not be able to explain in the event that something terrible did happen.

Joshua was indeed hiding from the Flores family. If she arranged for him to meet the Flores family, then maybe she could change things for the better, she thought.

"...well," Hazel said with some vulnerability. "But let's make a deal first. I just take you to see him. It is all his choice to reunite with you or not!"

She wanted to change things, but she couldn't force Joshua. This was his business, and he should make his own decisions.

"We promise you!" Lanny and Caroline looked happy, they stopped the drama suddenly, and the two eagerly said, "Let's go now!"

"Go now?" Hazel groaned, "So urgent?"

"Of course, I am anxious to see him!" Caroline said with a happy look.

Hazel frowned, but they kept urging, "Let's go now!"

She had made a promise, so she had no choice.

When they walked out of the restaurant, their son Henry had a car waiting. He looked Hazel up and down, she didn't know what he was thinking, but she felt very uncomfortable. As she walked to the car, he carefully opened the door for her.

Hazel reluctantly got in the car and took them to Denmark Residence. They had previously asked Theresa the address but could not enter the house to see Joshua. Hazel was with them now, so they could just walk in.

When they got out of the car, the Flores family kept looking at the luxurious villa in front of them.

"Heaven, God..." Caroline said stutteringly. "This, such a large garden! It is so beautiful! It seems to be bigger than the acres of our field!"

"There are fountains, big swimming pools..." Lanny's eyes were huge.

"There are so many servants in such a big house..."

Lanny greedily looked at everything in front of him, his heart was full of jealousy. He unwillingly clenched his fists. Joshua was obviously a child of the Flores family; how could he have all of this when he was just a useless country boy?
