Chapter 206: I’m Doing You A Favor
“Miss Crowe, you are so clever,” Mathew said with full admiration.
“If you are not afraid of someone like her, she will be afraid of you,” Hazel said calmly and then continued to tell them what they needed to do.
She felt like she was going crazy. There were a lot of guests, and many things needed to be re-organized, so her orders were quickly executed.
After contacting the good ceremonial company, Mathew rushed to the scene of the ribbon-cutting ceremony with Hazel.
In fact, their previous plans were really for self-amusement, and they did not expect too many people to attend, so they were holding the ceremony in the square below the company, but now the square was already crowded.
Mathew was shocked. He thought that the employee had just exaggerated, he did not expect to see so many people and more still arriving.
“Miss Crowe, did you know that this would happen?” Mathew looked at her with surprise.
“If I knew that it would be like this, wouldn’t I have prepared more?” Hazel said with shock and lack of strength, “Mathew, go on, you represent Joshua-Hazel Pictures.”
Mathew had not even made it to the square when people started talking to him. He greeted them with enthusiasm, he had met a lot of them at the cocktail party.
Hazel had already left, and no one had thought of her. Mathew was the representative of Joshua-Hazel Pictures, he was very experienced with these situations, so Hazel did not hesitate to trust him. She pretended to be a staff member to help maintain order at the scene.
She saw Joshua from far away, he was in the first row on the stage, Hazel couldn’t stop herself from bursting into tears. She hid in the corner and sent him a text message. “Are you kidding me? Time to turn around!”
Joshua took out his mobile phone and couldn’t help but smile. “I am doing you a favor.”
Hazel was distraught. She texted without thinking, “I thought you would only send a representative. Who thought that you would come in person? You are not here to join in the ceremony, it is obviously to come to mess with me!”
Joshua’s smile was gentler. Even though the text, he could feel Hazel’s anger.
“You are dealing with it well? Hazel, you are competent.”
Looking at his text message, Hazel’s anger dissipated a lot. Joshua complimented her? Hazel couldn’t help but hold her hot cheeks and smiled.
“You always say good words to me.” Hazel shyly replied.
“Hazel, I have never charmed you, and I am telling the truth.” Joshua lifted his lips. He had expected that his arrival would make Hazel unprepared, so he was already ready to help. But he hadn’t taken any action yet, and it is almost solved by Hazel herself.
Hazel was happier and more confident. Joshua had given her his praise.
She was trying to send back a text message to Joshua, but she suddenly received a call from Mathew.
Hazel’s frowned slightly. Her eyes swept over the crowd, and she soon found Mathew.
“What’s wrong?” Hazel asked.
“Miss Crowe, something has happened,” Mathew said. “The guests we asked to cut the ribbons just called me and said that they are stuck on the road. They cannot make it here in time…”
“Are they stuck on the road?” Hazel was surprised, and in a blink of an eye, she understood what was going on.
Susan first called them and asked them not to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, although she called again and took back her previous words, they were still worried that attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony may offend Susan.
The guests had accepted the invitation, making it hard to refuse to attend, so they made up an excuse to deliberately arrive late.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Then change people!” Hazel said coldly.
“I thought so too, but who can we change to?” Mathew said, “I don’t recognize some of these people. Who should I invite? What if I can’t invite them? what should I do if I offend people?”
“Give me a minute, I will confirm the list.” Hazel hangs up the phone and sent a text message directly to Joshua.
Joshua glanced in her direction and then picked out a few names from the list of guests and sent a text to Hazel.
“What are you doing?” Isaac, who was sitting next to Joshua, looked at his cell phone with some curiosity.
Joshua turned over the phone and said calmly, “Nothing.”
“There seems to be something happening,” Isaac said with a certain look.
“Smiling and sending text messages? So happy, I think, saying some sweet words?”
“You know it, and you still ask,” Joshua said. “You can’t understand this as a single man.”
Isaac looked hurt, and like he was going to cry, he couldn’t help but feel bad. He knew that Joshua had always been able to show his love at any time since he had Hazel but for him to take the opportunity to remind Isaac of his life. He realized that he shouldn’t talk to him about relationships.
“Where is Hazel?” Isaac looked for her in the crowd. “You are saying that this company is hers?”
“Well, we are working together,” Joshua said seriously.
Isaac ignored him, he was angry. It seems as soon as they spoke of anything, Joshua was bragging about his relationship.
When it was time, the host walked on to the stage, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony began. Hazel looked at the guests in the audience with mixed emotions, but her heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
The ceremony went smoothly, the guests and the hosts were both happy. Hazel stood in the last row, watching with relief.
Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind her, and Hazel turned around to see what the commotion was.
A few people were standing, watching with a doubtful expression.
“Is this the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Joshua-Hazel Pictures?”
Hazel’s eyes sunk slightly, and she recognized that they were the original ribbon-cutting guests. They are the ones who pretend to be trapped in a traffic jam.
“How is it possible?” another person whispered. “We deliberately delayed arriving for so long. Their ribbon cutting should have ended a long time ago? And you look at these guests, and we usually don’t see them. Even if Mathew knows them, how did he manage to invite them?”
“Yes,” someone added. “I think it must be the ribbon-cutting of another company. This was definitely a big company…”
Hazel turned and walked to them.
“Excuse me, Miss! May I ask,” several people hurriedly called Hazel? They asked some awkward questions. “Which company is holding the ribbon-cutting ceremony here?”
“It’s Joshua-Hazel Pictures,” Hazel smiled shallowly. “You are coming to the ribbon-cutting ceremony? But I’m sorry, you have…”
