Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1310 - 598: She Was Left Speechless



He even wanted to say something sarcastic in front of Hazel deliberately. That, of course, was what Ted asked him to do. The butler thought that even if he went too far, Hazel would have to put up with it in order to stay with their Master Joshua. Even if Master Joshua weren\'t happy, Hazel would be there to persuade Joshua.

However, before Joshua and Hazel could respond, Simon was pissed off.

The butler had heard the rumor about Simon before. It was said that their second young master was quite headstrong and never sensible, and even their master could do nothing to him. When the butler met Simon, the butler had no choice but to accept his bad luck.

Having said that, didn\'t the master say Master Joshua and Master Simon had a bad relationship? How could the butler not find it at all?

"I\'m sorry, Master Simon." The butler bowed her head.

Simon gave a sneer. The butler was really crafty. He apologized, but he had no intention of changing the address.

He stepped forward and was about to teach the butler a lesson again when Joshua stopped him.

"Forget it," said Joshua, looking coldly at the butler and opening his mouth indifferently. "If you kill a man like him, he won\'t change his mind either. Besides, you scared Hazel."

That last sentence was true. Hazel had just stepped off the plane, and she hadn\'t come to her senses, so she didn\'t notice the butler\'s improper treatment. Instead, she was startled by Simon\'s sudden kick.

But she knew that she was not welcome here. The butler was just the beginning.

"So we just let him go like that?" Simon sneered.

"Since he won\'t change his address," said Joshua, his eyes a little cold, "there\'s no need for him to open his mouth again."

Hazel tugged at his sleeve with resignation. She had not expected there was a fight immediately after they reached the manor.

"Hazel," Joshua said helplessly, "if you plead for him, he won\'t thank you."

"I know," Hazel said quietly. "I just don\'t want our kid to see this."

Joshua\'s face softened momentarily.

The next moment, he strode up to the butler and looked down at him.

"I know you won\'t appreciate it, but you also need to know that I let you go because of Hazel," he said in a deep tone. "But there will be punishments. You must keep quiet for three days. If I know you speak in secret, you\'ll never be able to speak again!"

The butler\'s body shuddered despite himself. Joshua\'s words were no threat.

He also knew Joshua\'s temper. Joshua seemed to be gentle and polite, but he never relented when anyone really tested his patience.

The butler nodded, showing that he knew.

Joshua gave him a nonchalant look and took Hazel to the car used to pick them up.

The car started slowly and took them to the main hall.

"I didn\'t know the old man had such a large estate." Simon asked. Although he had heard Joshua describe it before, he was very shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

Simon chuckled, "If I ask the old man for the manor, will he give it to me?"

"He\'ll probably leave it to you as a legacy." There was a flash of sarcasm in Joshua\'s eyes.

"That\'s true," Simon sneered. "The old man is stupid. He\'s got so much good stuff in his hands, isn\'t he obviously forcing me to kill him?"

Hazel looked out the window in shock. The manor was more like a fairy tale castle. But the conversation between Joshua and Simon left Hazel speechless.

"What are you two talking about?" She glared at Simon. "Don\'t tell me, you\'ve forgotten what you\'re here for!"

"No, no, I\'m just kidding." Simon laughed.

He had no intention of letting Hazel know what they were really up to.

The car soon reached the front hall. Joshua helped Hazel open the car door and helped her walk out of the car.

Ted, sitting in the living room, could see everything they had been doing since they got off the plane, and of course, he could hear their conversation.

He certainly wasn\'t in a good mood to hear his own son say he wanted to kill him. Unlike Hazel, Ted didn\'t think this was just Simon\'s joke.

What made him even angrier was the fact that Joshua had been so attentive to Hazel along the way, which made him hate her even more. What had this woman done to her two sons, making them so obedient to her?

Joshua held Hazel in his arms as they walked into the living room.

Hazel couldn\'t help looking up. The decoration style here was a bit like that of a medieval castle. It seemed a little terrifying.

"Bumpkin..."

Suddenly, Hazel heard a low, dismissive voice. Hazel felt a bit helpless.

It was a servant standing at the door who said this. But it must be because of Ted\'s approval that she was so bold. Ted really hated her very much, otherwise, he would not let so many people deliberately humiliate her again and again. He obviously wanted to deal her a head-on blow at the first encounter. Unfortunately, Ted\'s plans were doomed to fail.

Joshua glanced at the servant indifferently and said coldly, "Slap your own face thirty times!"

The servant looked up in shock and looked at Joshua in disbelief. She just said a word to Hazel, but Joshua was actually so cruel that he asked her to slap herself in the face thirty times?

"Master Joshua, how could you be so cruel?" The servant\'s eyes turned red. She lowered her head with a wounded expression. "Do you forget, when you lay on the sickbed and couldn\'t move, it was me who took care of you all the time!"

Hazel felt uncomfortable, not because of what the servant said, but because Ted deliberately made the servant say these words, which disgusted and embarrassed Hazel.

She had expected that life would not be so smooth after her arrival at the manor, but she had not expected the situation to be so terrible. According to the current situation, it couldn\'t be an exaggeration to say this was an extremely dangerous place!

"Do you mean, Mr. King is so poor and mean that he didn\'t pay you?" Joshua spoke coldly.

"No, no, it isn\'t! I have a good, high salary, and the master is generous..." said the servant, looking frightened.

"Since you have been paid, work is your duty. How can you ask me for affection?" Joshua spoke sarcastically.
