MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Hazel almost burst into laughter. Although, she knew that it was a very serious situation. Both sides were yelling and confronting each other, but she really couldn't hold back.

"What are you laughing at?" Caroline said with annoyance, "I tell you. This woman is much more capable than you are. She invested in animation and earned tens of millions. The film was hot before it was even released.

The online drama she invested in hundreds of millions of hits with its first episode... Only the woman who can make money in everything she does is worthy of Joshua!"

Caroline heard these words from Lily. It was rare that Lily did not exaggerate much, and it's even rarer that Caroline could remember.

Hazel smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment. I will be too proud."

"You, you..." Caroline glared at her, "Who praises you? Do you think you can compare with her?"

"I am not better than her or worse than her." Hazel's mood looked great.

"Just keep bluffing!" Caroline was even angrier. "You thought you were here, huh?!"

"You just said it out of your own mouth, Hazel is indeed the one who can make money in everything she does," Joshua said faintly.

Joshua's words sounded like thunder, and everyone was shocked.

The entire Flores family, including Lily, were surprised. They always looked down on Hazel because from the beginning, they took it for granted that Hazel was only with Joshua for his money! It turned out that they were wrong about her?

Caroline's facial expressions kept changing. She thought she was talking about someone else when she was boasting, but it was actually Hazel? She could not feel any more frustrated at this.

Rachel was the most astonished because she had no idea about any of it.

"Joshua, Joshua, I know that you like Hazel, but you can't tell a lie like this for her!" Caroline was struggling. She insisted that Joshua was lying.

"Joshua, Hazel, that makes Joshua-Hazel Pictures. Is it a surprise?" Joshua calmly asked.

"You went to Director Carter's set to find me and went to Joshua-Hazel Pictures to seek trouble." Hazel was a little surprised. She added, "Yet, you didn't know about it all this time?"

The faces of the Flores family looked like hell. They went to the set and to the Joshua-Hazel Pictures studio because someone told them to, they only knew they could find Hazel there.

As to why they could find her there, that was beyond their knowledge. Naturally, they did not think about the relationship between Hazel and the company. Even if they had begun thinking, they would've assumed that Hazel was just a staff there, they looked ignorant in everyone's eyes.

Fred choked hard for a few seconds. Then he said, "Miss Crowe's career has nothing to do with what we are discussing now."

"Right, right!" The Flores family suddenly came back down to earth. Their target was Joshua himself, they did not want to continue to engage with Hazel anymore.

"Joshua, I know that you have money and status now, and you don't want to admit we are your biological parents." Caroline said with a sad face, "We are just some farmers in a remote location of the state. Our identity is so humble that you look down on us, of course, you don't want to have anything to do with us..."

"Shut the fuck up!" An angry voice came from the door of the living room.

Jennie came in with a cold look on her face. She said angrily, "If you are really the parents of Joshua, Joshua would admit it, whether you were farmers or even thieves! But if you are not his parents, even if you were the President of the United States, he would not accept you!"

They didn't expect Jennie to arrive so fast. The Flores family was getting extremely flustered.

"It's you!" Caroline pointed at Jennie angrily, "You took our child! And, now you say Joshua is not our child. I think you must have tried hard to destroy our relationship. That's why Joshua won't admit we are his parents. What have you done? You vicious woman!"

Jennie ran an orphanage all on her own for a long time, and she had seen all kinds of people and been patient. However, with Caroline, she could no longer hold back.

"Caroline, how bad is your memory?" Jennie said coldly, "You sold your child to me for five hundred dollars. And you said, if I didn't pay and take that child, you would throw him in the mountains to feed him to the wolves! Also, have you really forgotten why you had to sell your own child?"

"I..." Caroline's face was white. She hadn't had time to explain anything.

Jennie yelled again, "You didn't want to raise the child because when he was born, there was something wrong with his right leg. He could not walk normally! Now look at Joshua, his legs are good and healthy. How could he be your child?!"

Hazel was shocked, Jennie never told her that detail. No wonder the Flores family had started acting weird after seeing Joshua and let Henry harass her. It seemed that they had already known Joshua was not their child, so they just tried to stay and find a way to seize any property the Denmark family had.

Fred did not know what to say, he looked at Lanny, Caroline, and Henry angrily. He never thought that they would actually conceal such an important thing from him, it was too late to try and convince him.

"You...you are a liar!" Caroline's look was a bit more chaotic. She said desperately, "Our child was very healthy, no disease at all! He was not disabled, no way!"

"Even if he was not disabled, would you sell your own child? This is called human trafficking, illegal, did you know that?" Rachel couldn't help but speak out. Her profession made her intolerable to such things.

"We gave him life. How is selling our own child breaking the law?" Caroline said with guilt.

"It's also illegal to sell your own children!" Rachel was even more annoyed,

"And even if you mention it in front of me, a policewoman, I won't count it as surrendering yourself to justice!"

Caroline's face was pale. She was very nervous now, not knowing what to do.

"No, we didn't sell him!" Lanny said hurriedly, "We just sent the child to be fostered by capable hands because we were so poor! And Jennie saw our poor condition and decided to help us with some money!"

"Yes, that's it!" Caroline hurriedly echoed.

"That's called the offense of abandonment, still illegal!" Rachel was not giving up.

"We can follow up on this really old story from the past later." Fred had to argue. He said, "And, we have only heard words from your side. We still cannot prove that Joshua is not their child, right?"
