Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

She was extremely shocked. She even wondered if she had heard it wrong!

Joshua left her to continue eating. She wasn't too surprised, but… it was Simon now who was sitting opposite her!

She clutched Joshua by the sleeve frantically and said in disbelief, "You're going to leave me here? It's Simon King!"

Simon was so angry that his wound was almost split open by her words.

"What do you mean, Pumpkin?" Simon put his hands over his heart, heartbroken. "Will I eat you?"

She rolled her eyes at him without hesitation, as if he talked nonsense. Then she looked sharply at Joshua. "Are you two up to something? Otherwise, why does your attitude towards him change so much?"

Simon's eyes turned a little deep.

Sure enough, Hazel was sharp enough. Even though he and Joshua hid everything from her, she still was able to grasp the point in an instant, which was almost her instincts.

That was also why she was stronger than Madeline. If it were Madeline, she might even start to think narcissistically that the two of them were trying to bury the hatchet to share her.

"I'll explain it to you," Joshua whispered. "Don't worry. I won't leave you alone."

With that, he beckoned, and Crystal, who was not far away, walked over and sat down next to Hazel.

Hazel was relieved. With Crystal around, she wouldn't be afraid of Simon, who was alone and injured.

"Hurry back," she said.

After Joshua left, Simon looked at Hazel with a half-smile. "Do you really allow him to leave alone without worry?"

"Why not?" She looked at him blankly. Suddenly her eyes were filled with vigilance. "Will you ambush Joshua on the way?!"

Simon almost wanted to spit blood. How could Hazel think of him like that?

"Am I that bad in your heart?" His eyes were very sad with hidden bitterness. "Am I that kind of person, Pumpkin?"

"Yes." She nodded without hesitation. But she also had come to her senses now. Since the tense relationship between Joshua and Simon had relaxed, Simon did not need to set Joshua up.

"... You're really going to piss me off," Simon said helplessly. "I mean, aren't you worried that he's going to have an affair?"

Her eyes flashed puzzle. "Why should I be worried? He can handle it himself!"

His face darkened instantly. Joshua had left, but Hazel still displayed her affection so happily. The reason she wasn't worried that Joshua would have an affair was actually that she believed Joshua could handle it?!

"Do you really believe him so much?" There was simply despair in Simon's heart.

"Why don't I believe him?" She took it for granted. "He would have cheated if he'd wanted to. Why does he need to wait until now?"

"... Maybe he was still interested in you before, and was afraid you would catch him," he said unwillingly.

"So now he's not interested in me, and he's not afraid I'll catch him?" She could not help but roll her eyes at Simon. "Don't provoke me. You are such a playboy who has never tasted the true taste of love. You have no idea a couple can understand each other very well when they are in love!"

Simon was furious, but he couldn't retort. Indeed, there were many women around him, but he had never been sincere to them. He also really did not know the so-called love between two people or the true taste of love.

This wench was really cruel. She cut him to the quick ruthlessly because she knew it was a sore point for him.

"You are so protective of him, I suppose, because you know he can't have an erection and that he is helpless even if he sees another woman?" Simon sneered. He was really irritated by Hazel's attitude. Hazel was so protective of Joshua that he felt very jealous and even wanted to explode!

Hazel was also pissed off and spoke in a cold voice, "He had one orgasm, and I had seven. Who says he can't have an erection?!"

"..."

Crystal tried to observe the surroundings intently, pretending she had heard nothing.

Simon was completely speechless. It was clear that Hazel used to be a very shy girl, although she was a little smart. However, she actually could talk about sex so randomly after getting married to Joshua.

In fact, Hazel was a little shy when she said that, but she didn't regret it. How dared he vilifies her man in front of her?

"You have changed..." Simon said solemnly, "Pumpkin, you are not pure."

"You vilify my man in front of me, and you want me to let you go?" She sneered. "If you want to keep talking about how the sex life of Joshua and I are. Just bring it on, big boy!"

He was too embarrassed to speak. Alright, he gave in to her.

Seeing that he behaved himself at long last, she breathed a sigh of relief and spoke, "Simon King, I have a question."

"You want to ask what happened to Joshua and me?" He smiled vaguely.

She hesitated for a while before continuing, "Though that's not what I meant... But what happened exactly?"

"Ask Joshua," he said, smiling more happily. "If he won't tell you, that would be great."

"You expect me to have a bad relationship with Joshua, don't you?" She was speechless.

"Of course," he replied confidently. "I can't have an opportunity unless both of you have a bad relationship.

"Haha, rest assured, you will never have the opportunity!" She gave a cold snort with disdain.

Then she began to eat.

Simon wondered how many times he had been so pissed off that he was speechless. Hazel probably had sensed that he wouldn't do anything to her, so she dared to be so arrogant in front of him. After all, she used to be on guard almost all the time when she faced him.

So…this was how she usually behaved? Simon's eyes softened a little. Even though the current Hazel made threatening gestures and made him almost spit blood, she looked very cute.

"What did you want to ask?" he asked. It suddenly dawned on him that Hazel hadn't meant to ask him that question before.

"I don't want to ask anything now." Without hesitation, she rolled her eyes at him.

"You can ask, and I promise to answer," he said earnestly.
