Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

A jolt awakened Hazel.

She was in good health, so she woke up fast.

When she woke up, she noticed that she was being tied up and seemed to be in a car.

There were two other people in the car. They seemed to be discussing something in the front of the car, so they didn't notice that she had woken up.

Hazel knew they were very alert, and they were strong. After all, the two of them alone took her out of the hotel with so many people protecting her. She knew she couldn't fight them head-on, so she slowed down her breathing and continued to faint.

"The news from the headquarters said that the young master has been seriously injured and was on the run..."

"No way, how could the little devil be seriously injured? If he doesn't make trouble and make others get hurt badly, he would be good enough!"

"No, his injury is just a kind of statement to the outside world. It is said that he is kidnapped, and the other side wants to exchange him for this woman."

Hazel's brain suddenly went blank. She was the woman they were talking about, so it must be Joshua who kidnapped their young master?

Suddenly she felt calm. Her nervousness and fear of being kidnapped vanished in an instant because she knew Joshua was trying to save her, and she believed he could make it.

Now what she needed to do was not wait quietly for rescue but try to cooperate with Joshua to see if she could help because she was never a princess who could only passively wait to be saved. Even if her own strength was very weak, she also wanted to have a try.

"What does the master say?" One of them turned around and gave Hazel a look.

"There's no news from the master, but I heard that he was very angry and disappointed with the young master. With his temper, I don't think he will allow us to swap..."

"Why? Isn't the young master the son of the master? And he's the only successor to the organization! Although their relationship has been bad, the master will not ignore the young master's life, will he?"

"After all, the master is not an ordinary person. He is cruel to himself and is crueler to his son. Maybe he'll feel that it's a disgrace for the young master to fall into other people's hands this time, so he won't necessarily let us swap."

Organization?! Hazel pursed her lips slightly.

If she was not mistaken, these two people should be from the organization? So the young master that they talked about must be Simon!

In other words, Joshua caught Simon and used him to threaten the organization to let her go? But according to these two people, Hazel felt that the situation was not optimistic. Simon's father didn't seem to be on good terms with Simon, and he didn't want to save Simon.

***

At the construction site near Lincoln Lake, Simon was tied to a chair. Now he looked awful. But even so, he still maintained his noble posture.

Until now, there had been no news saying that the headquarters were willing to negotiate with Joshua. Simon's mouth suddenly tilted upwards slightly at the corners in a sarcastic way.

He should have known that. That man didn't care about him at all. How could he possibly trade Hazel for his life? That person might think that he was arrested because of his incompetence, so that would be great if his incompetent son died.

"Stop waiting." Simon laughed sarcastically. "It seems that my life is of little use. I suggest that you block all the exits of the imperial capital as soon as possible and check every vehicle so that you have a better chance of finding Hazel."

Joshua's face was darker. The longer he waited, the more anxious he would be. He knew Simon was right, but it would also be hard for him to find Hazel if he changed his plan now.

"Maybe it's because I'm too kind. Your father may think it's just a play." Joshua's voice was so deep that it was frightening, and he continued, "I should do something to make him understand my determination!"

The next moment a dagger appeared in his hand. As a cold light flashed, Simon felt pain in his wrist, and then the dagger went straight into his chest!

"You…" Looking at the dagger in his chest, Simon looked at him in amazement.

It seemed Joshua had completely become sinister, like a demon crawling out of hell! He not only stabbed him but cut his wrist directly. Feeling the coldness from his chest, Simon endured the pain and suddenly understood why Joshua did that.

Joshua took out his phone, took some photos of him with a grim face, and then sent them to the organization.

"Don't worry, that knife didn't hit your heart at all. I just want to show them that you are really 'seriously injured,'" Joshua said coldly. "But if you aren't sent to the hospital in an hour, your father's going to bury your body himself!"

An hour was the deadline for the other party to give Hazel back to him.

Joshua knew that those people kidnapped Hazel, but he sent the message fast enough that they might not take Hazel out of the imperial capital in time. He could even be sure that Hazel's kidnappers were still in the imperial capital and even were near Lincoln Lake.

Simon suddenly laughed. Even if his chest felt the chill of the dagger and the blood was still flowing on the wrist, suddenly, he was a little happy. It turned out that Joshua and his blood had the same dark, crazy gene!

"Even if you wear a gentle mask, Joshua Denmark, the real you are, like me, a crazy bad man and a villain who doesn't care about others' lives at all and does everything possible to achieve the goal! Maybe that's what we have in our blood. Even if you pretend very perfectly, it will be exposed one day!" Simon laughed wildly. He seemed very happy.

"I'm different from you!" Joshua's eyes were red. "I just wanted to keep Hazel safe... No matter who wants to harm Hazel, I will never let him go! "

Joshua was really upset now. If it was Simon who kidnapped Hazel, he would not panic because he knew that Simon would at least not harm Hazel's life.

But Hazel was kidnapped by others in the organization, and they should be excellent experts. He had no idea what they would do to Hazel!

Worse still, Joshua occasionally heard rumors about Simon's father. Almost everyone who had seen him said he was a ruthless devil! He was afraid the most basic safety of Hazel falling into his hands would not be guaranteed!

In this case, how could he not go mad?
