Chasing The Fierce Heiress

“Susan really wanted to set me up, but hasn’t she paid for what she did?” Hazel said, “Let’s say Karma is a bitch.”

“But this was not enough for her.” Joshua’s face turned cold. Even now, he still felt that Susan would not give up easily. They let her off the hook this time, but he felt it was only going to give her a chance to catch her breath before she attacked again.

“I know, but… she is my cousin after all,” Hazel’s eyes flickered. “You were the one who mentioned it, the relationship between mother and Aunt Sunny was not bad. My mother lost me, and during that difficult time, Sunny was always with her.”

“Okay, I guess.” Joshua did not deny anything that Hazel had said. He looked at her gently, she was a really good person, but she was too kind. He continued to fear that others would think this as well, and it would make her an easy target.

“This time, let’s say we let her go because of Aunt Sunny.” Hazel sighed, “Joshua, I don’t understand it. According to what you said, Aunt Sunny should be a brilliant woman. How could she have such an evil daughter?”

“Sometimes parents’ love for their children is the biggest harm for them,” Joshua said quietly. He reached out and held Hazel in his arms, whispering, “Don’t think about it, Hazel. Promise me, never get in someone else’s car that easily again.”

“Today was a special circumstance,” Hazel whispered.

“What was special?” Joshua lifted her chin, and his eyes sharpened. “Hazel, you think you are good at CQC, and no one could do any harm to you?”

Hazel was a little guilty. Joshua knew her better than she did.

“I promise I won’t be like that anymore!” Hazel said quickly.

Joshua looked at her faintly, sighing helplessly. “I really want to tie you to me, so I can take you wherever I go.”

“Even to the toilet?” Hazel asked.

Joshua’s eyes went a bit deeper. He leaned over and kissed her, whispering, “Yes, even to the toilet!”

Susan called Sunny, she cried and told her what happened.

“Mom, what am I supposed to do now?”

“What else can I do?” Sunny said coldly, “Susan, you really got guts. You dared to kidnap Joshua’s girlfriend and wanted to set her up with another man.”

“Mom, this is just nonsense!” Susan cried, “I don’t want to marry Richard.

I don’t like that trash! I like Joshua. Even if he doesn’t like me, I want him to confess under my feet!”

Susan’s voice became coarse. Sunny sneered, “Wake up, Susan. Do you have anything in your hands that can make Joshua give in?”

Susan was stunned. Then she suddenly said, “I have! I have!”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“What?” Sunny said with an awkward tone.

“I tracked him and Hazel that day and saw them at an orphanage…”

“Joshua was adopted. I know better than you.” Sunny interrupted her impatiently.

“No, I am not talking about this!” Susan hurriedly said, “I saw someone looking for trouble there. Although they were sent away, I heard the director of the orphanage say that Joshua secretly helped that family! Why would Joshua do that? Is that family related to him? Mom, how about I find his loved ones and use these people to threaten Joshua…”

“You are enough!” Sunny interrupted, “What’s wrong with Joshua helping his family? You want to threaten him with his loved ones. Are you crazy? Susan, just marry Richard, and you can live a life without worry!”

“I don’t want it! Richard has no balls or fun. Who wants to marry him?” Susan said hurriedly.

Suddenly, the door flew open, Richard was standing in the doorway, his face was pale.

Joshua had locked him in another room before but unlocked the door before he and Hazel left. When Richard woke up, he was anxious to find Susan but hesitated when he heard her conversation.

“Richard?” Susan was stunned and started to panic. Even if she didn’t like Richard that much, she enjoyed Richard pestering her. What’s more, if she was not with Richard, Joshua would never let her go.

Richard looked at her in disappointment, then turned and left. Susan jumped up and went chasing after him.

No longer harassed by Susan and Richard, Hazel’s days became easier. She was even happier because of the movie she had invested in.

She put what Susan had done behind her and moved on.

Hazel was working at Denmark Group and excited to find Joshua. As his assistant, she had no restrictions and went right to his office.

However, Joshua was in a meeting. Hazel waited in his office for a while when Jaxson walked in. Since Sharon started working at Joshua-Hazel Pictures, Jaxson had been working in both venues, but his work focus had been gradually transferred back to Denmark Group.

Seeing him, surprised Hazel a little.

“You looking for me?” She asked.

“Yes.” Jaxson said, “Miss Crowe, it’s about Joshua-Hazel Pictures.”

“What is it?” Hazel was amazed. “Isn’t it doing fine? Director Carter said he contacted several directors and helped the company’s artists hook up with many theatrical groups. Several artists have passed the audition successfully, just waiting for the contracts.”

“Waiting because they haven’t signed the contracts,” Jaxson explained,

“Miss Crowe, Susan recently set up an artist studio. Did you know that?”

“Ah?” Hazel was stunned. Susan also set up a studio? Was Susan aiming at her? But it’s not right, Susan should not know that Joshua-Hazel Pictures belonged to Hazel.

Jaxson went on to say, “Her studio has also signed a lot of artists, and she used some unfair means to steal all of our artists.”

“Does she have to go against me?” Hazel frowned, “Not likely. She has been keeping quite a low profile recently, right?”

“I don’t think she is coming after you.” Jaxson said, “She is targeting Joshua-Hazel Pictures.”

Hazel was stunned. Presumably, Susan had suffered a loss and had to find a way to vent her anger.
