MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Hazel was confused, "Why are you asking me that?"

"You haven't said it for a long time, and I want to hear it." He said in a low voice. "Said it, do you like me?"

"Yes…" Hazel said shyly.

"Just like?" Joshua was offended.

Under the faint streetlight, his eyes seemed to be covered by a soft light. Just looking at them made Hazel feel excited, but she also felt that she had stopped thinking.

She said almost without hesitating, "I like you very much..."

Joshua smiled lightly and kissed her lips gently. Hazel suddenly reached out her finger and put them on his lips.

"Why do you just want me to say it? What about you?" Hazel spoke and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Joshua, I want to hear it too!"

Joshua lifted his lips. His eyes became extraordinarily deep, "Hazel, I love you so much."

Hazel felt her heartbeat accelerating, and she let Joshua kiss her. Their lips touched, and suddenly, the emergency fire alarm went off.

"What happened?!" Hazel was shocked.

Joshua squinted. He said in a low voice. "The sound came from there. We should go to have a look."

They ran toward the sound, but Hazel had just walked a few steps when she saw Chris was not far away. He was running towards the place too.

"Director Livingston, why are you here?" Hazel asked curiously.

Chris was upset, he just went out to distract himself. He had no idea about who Hazel was and didn't expect Joshua to show off in front of him on purpose. He never thought that Hazel, who had been working so hard, would act like a teenager, he was afraid that she would only show that side of her to Joshua.

"I came out to walk around," Chris said vaguely. "I didn't expect that there would be an accident, so I am going to see what happened. But..."

Chris glanced at them and said with dissatisfaction. "Mr. Denmark, it could be dangerous. Don't let Manager Crowe go there."

"What are you talking about?" Hazel kept walking and said angrily. "You know that I am the manager? No matter what happened, I must go to the scene to investigate!"

"You heard it for yourself," Joshua said, "Even if I stop her, this girl will sneak there. Instead of letting her take risks, I should follow her. I can protect her if there is any danger."

Chris was uncomfortable. Joshua gave Hazel the greatest understanding and support, as well as the safest protection. Compared with Joshua, he seemed to have no chance to win at all.

"But Director Livingston, you don't have to go to the scene," Joshua said in a deep voice. "Please go back to the auditorium and comfort other people. Then call the police and ask the security department to come to the scene as soon as possible."

He was so serious. Chris almost intuitively agreed, "Okay!"

After the promise, Chris realized that he was so easily affected by Joshua. Of course, only the president of Denmark Group would have such a strong warning and make such a quick decision.

Chris also knew that it was a critical moment. He did not care more about it, so he quickly went back to the auditorium.

The place where the fire was on is the No. 3 warehouse of the coffee factory. After Hazel arrived, her facial expression changed. It was the warehouse where the online drama series coffee was stored. If it were all destroyed, then her efforts would have been for nothing. 

"It seems that someone is inside!" Joshua's eyes darkened.

The door of the warehouse had been opened, and they saw the fire from far away. In the warehouse, there was actually a person, and she seemed to be extinguishing the fire.

"Come on! Come to put out the fire!" the woman in the warehouse shouted.

Hazel was shocked. The one who was putting out the fire was her assistant Mandy, she began to wonder but then realized there was no time to think too much.

"Put out the fire quickly!" Hazel picked up a fire extinguisher and was ready to rush into the warehouse.

Joshua took the fire extinguisher in her hand and said, "You don't know how to use it. If you go in, you cannot help. Go out to find someone nearby!"

"Okay..." Hazel also knows that it was serious, so she agreed.

Soon, more and more people rushed over.

Joshua repeatedly reminded her to pay attention to these tricks so she was not unprepared. The fire protection system of the coffee factory was perfect and efficient.

Although the warehouse was full of flammable materials, the fire was quickly detected, and the fire was quickly extinguished.

After the fire was put out, everyone was surrounding the warehouses and were all gray-faced. They all knew very well what would happen if the fire really destroyed the things.

"Manager Crowe," Chris walked up to her side. "The fire didn't have a great loss, only a few dozen boxes of coffee were burnt..."

"What is the cause of the fire?" Hazel asked.

"It's not clear," Chris replied. "At the moment, there is a great possibility that someone set the fire."

"Monitor Video Camera? Have you checked it?" Hazel asked.

"I have already asked someone to check it, but when the fire was burning, the monitor video camera wasn't working," Chris said helplessly.

"Aren't the cameras always checked and repaired if they are broken? How can it suddenly break down?" Hazel frowned.

"That is to say, the people who set the fire are employees of the company." Joshua reminded, "Because they know the fire would easily destroy it."

Hazel was worried.

Chris added, "Yes, the first one to find out the fire was your assistant Mandy, but she seems to be injured. Would you like me to ask her to come over?"

"No," Hazel slightly hesitated. "I will go to find her."

Mandy was sitting not far away, Hazel and Joshua walked to her side.

"Mandy, are you okay?" Asked Hazel.

Mandy had many red marks on her hands, and her hair was burnt, apparently from the fire.

"Fortunately, they are all minor injuries, and it was not serious," Mandy said in a hurry.

"Sorry, you had to deal with it first. I will ask you a few questions, and we will get you to the hospital soon." Hazel apologized.

"Is it about the fire?" she asked.

Seeing Hazel nod, Mandy explained, "I don't drink too much, but I still felt a little dizzy. So, I decided to go out and walk around, then I saw a very suspicious person. I followed him, and he actually went to the warehouse and set the fire. When I rushed over to put out the fire, he ran away..."

"Then you saw who the person?" Hazel asked.

"I didn't see him clearly," Mandy shook his head. "The man was covered from head to toe."

Hazel was embarrassed, there was no monitor video, and Mandy did not see it clearly, it became more and more difficult to find out who set the fire.

"Where did you see the person?" Joshua suddenly asked.
