MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

"Miss Crowe has already left," Jaxson said quietly.

Joshua started to feel worried, even though he did not know that Hazel had gone to the school to find her professor.

Hazel stood outside the professor's office, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.

"Hazel Crowe?" When the professor saw her, he looked rather surprised.

"Professor," Hazel walked in. She endured the anger in her heart and said calmly, "I came to ask about my paper."

"Your paper is here, I haven't seen it yet," the professor hurriedly said. "You can go home. If I have any questions or opinions, I will contact you."

"If you have no opinion on my paper, how can you just throw it into the shredder?" Hazel's eyes flashed, "Professor, whether it is to my paper, or me, if you have any opinions, you can express your dissatisfaction in other ways. But as a professor, you know how important a graduation thesis is to me. Why would you do this?"

"I..." The professor had a look of complete embarrassment. "Hazel, you misunderstood. Your paper is here, I didn't..."

"I misunderstood?" Hazel sneered, this paper must have been the one Summer handed in, and the only reason it was still there was that Joshua began to investigate.

"Summer saw you throwing my paper into the shredder and recorded it. Professor, I am furious about this, if you cannot give me an explanation, I will post the video on the internet!"

Although Summer saw it with her own eyes, Hazel did not know if she had a video, but it wasn't going to stop Hazel from taking advantage of the situation.

"Hazel," the professor felt a little uncomfortable. He finally sighed and said, "I don't have any opinion of you. Even if your classmates have been spreading rumors, I won't judge you because of them. After all, it is your own personal business. However, I did deliberately withhold your paper. Although I have a reason, I am indeed risking your future. I am sorry."

Hazel lifted her eyebrow as she wondered why her classmates were talking about her. She had no idea about it but realized that was probably why Joshua and Summer didn't want her to go to the school. However, it was not the time to worry about the rumors.

"I really want to know the reason why you would do such a thing!" Hazel demanded. The professor looked even more hesitant, but he could see that Hazel would continue asking until he told her.

He spoke in almost a whisper, "Well, since you have come to me with this information, I should hide anything anymore. My son wants to go abroad to study, but his paperwork could not be completed. Some people threatened me and said that if I want my son to go abroad, the only way would be to remove your paper so that you cannot graduate."

Hazel was very surprised; she had assumed that the professor was threatened, but it was someone with enough connections to stop someone from going abroad.

"Who is threatening you like this?" she asked.

"I don't know this, the other party refuses to tell me his identity," the professor sighed. "But my son called a little while ago and said that the paperwork was complete. Don't worry, I will read your graduation thesis carefully."

Hazel relaxed, it seemed that Joshua must have been involved.

The professor looked at her meaningfully. "Miss Crowe, if you have offended someone, you should resolve it as soon as possible."

Hazel raised her eyebrows. In fact, he was giving her advice with no evil intention.

After leaving the professor's office, Hazel was a little depressed. The professor didn't know who was making trouble, but she could make an educated guess that it was Mandy. It seemed like a lot of effort to make her discouraged. 

If it was Mandy, she had already asked the directors to force Joshua, spread rumors in the Denmark Group, and threatened her professor to prevent her from graduating. Her actions were getting more and more extreme.

Hazel frowned, she knew Mandy was just too much, and Joshua only encouraged her to stay at Denmark Residence, which prevented her from hearing everything. She knew he was only trying to protect her, but it made her angry, if she didn't know better, she would think that Joshua was trying to control her and allow others to bully her.

Could it be that Mandy may be the daughter of the Denmark family, so Joshua is being kind hearted?

Hazel was in a daze, but she snapped out of it when she was hit with a rock.

She wasn't prepared at all, she felt a dizzy and sharp pain when the rock hit her forehead. She touched her head, only to feel a warm liquid on her fingers.

She was in shock after being hit with the rock, but she was also bleeding. Hazel began to feel dizzier, but more and more rocks were being thrown at her before she could gather her thoughts. She quickly covered her head, but the rocks were coming down like rain.

"What are you doing? Stop!"

Suddenly, Hazel heard a familiar voice, and the rocks stopped hitting her. She looked up to see Summer and Ariel walking toward her.

A group of students from the university had them surrounded, they thought they were superior and wanted to cause trouble. The girl encouraging the group was Kyla, who framed Hazel before.

"You two aren't involved in the situation!" Kyla's eyes flashed with hatred, and she said evilly. "We just came to find this shameless woman, Hazel! The university should have kicked her out long ago!"

"Yes! Hazel, if you want to save any of your self-respect, just drop out of school! Don't embarrass the school too. It doesn't matter if you were notorious for a long time. It won't make University Q like you!"

"Yes, do you want us to be embarrassed to mention what university we went to?"

As they yelled at her, Hazel smiled slightly and covered her wounded forehead. She didn't want Ariel and Summer to see it and worry about her.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Ariel was angry.

"Nonsense?" Kyla laughed even more proudly. "The whole school knows about Hazel and how this bitch got to be with Joshua! What, we can't say what shameless things she has done?"

"I always wondered why Sir Denmark would fall in love with her! It turns out that she is the fake daughter of the Denmark family. She made it all up to deliberately get close to Joshua! This vicious woman must want the property belonging to Denmark's. Only, his identity has been discredited. She got what she deserves!" Kyla smirked and laughed.
