MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

"I don't want to see that." Hazel frowned, a little unhappy.

"Pumpkin, touch the bruise on your head. You remember how she bullied you, don't you?" Simon smiled coldly. "She's just getting what she deserves. You should be relieved after seeing this."

"I am not sick and twisted, how can I feel relieved to see a group of men bullying a woman?" She said coldly, "Besides, it's my business. I'll handle it myself."

"But I am sick and twisted. I like to see those who bully you pay for what they did." His face wore an evil smile. "Pumpkin, you'd better keep watching. Or are you trying to escape reality again?"

She looked even colder, she knew Simon was right, she did want to escape reality in her heart. She didn't want to know whether Joshua was nice to her because she was Hazel or the Denmark family's daughter.

The masked men had stopped torturing Mandy for a few moments when a man came in and said, "Master, I heard a rumor that there is another woman, Hazel Crowe, claiming to be the daughter of the Denmark family. Since this woman has been so stubborn, could it be that Joshua uses this woman to hide the true daughter? Is it possible that Hazel Crowe is the real daughter of the Denmark family, and this one is an imposter?"

They hadn't been talking quietly, so Mandy clearly heard the conversation. She intended to make Hazel a scapegoat, but she was furious when she heard them calling her an impostor. 

"Who says I'm an impostor?" Mandy said fiercely, "I am the real daughter of the Denmark family! Hazel is the fake bitch! Obviously, she took everything away from me. The Denmark family should be mine, so should Denmark Group and Joshua. Why do you all believe her instead of me? Joshua doesn't believe me, neither do you, kidnappers! I'm the real, real..."

The kidnappers were taken aback by Mandy's roar. It wasn't just the kidnappers who were surprised, Hazel and Simon were as well.

"Pumpkin, is this woman stupid?" Simon tutted, "She didn't change her story, even under the circumstances. I kind of believe she's the Denmark family's daughter."

Hazel was shocked, and her heart trembled a little. The kidnappers had begun to doubt Mandy's identity, and she would be out of danger if she admitted she was not Denmark's daughter. Instead, she would rather be

tortured by the kidnappers, than changed her story, insisting that she was the Denmark family's daughter.

Hazel began to wonder what the chances were that she and Mandy had the exact same birthmark, which resulted in the misunderstanding.

"Is this woman a psycho?" said the man reporting, "I think she is questionable, master."

"What's questionable?" The master said coldly, "She's competing with Hazel Crowe for the Denmark family. Do you think she'll sacrifice herself to protect Hazel? I think she's real. You guys, wait on her! If you are lucky, the daughter of the Denmark family may be able to be pregnant with your child."

"What, what do you want?" Mandy's face changed instantly, but the men didn't answer her at all, they just tore off her clothes.

"Bastard! You bastards!" she cried in panic. "I am the daughter of the Denmark's family, and the whole Denmark family is my backer! If you dare to touch me, I will not let you go…."

"Stop it." Hazel was livid. She didn't want to see such a scene at all.

"Pumpkin, this kind of woman is really not worth your kindness," Simon sneered. "Don't you remember she set up a trap to destroy your reputation?!"

"You know about that?" She was a little worrier and insisted, "Even so, wouldn't I be just as bad as her if I use the same methods?" 

"Pumpkin, there's something you are mistaken about." He laughed. "It's never been you, but me who would use this kind of means."

Hazel was utterly helpless because Simon was clearly not going to let Mandy go. Plus, the fact that he had brought her and forced her to watch Mandy being tortured.

Suddenly, the door of the warehouse burst open, and a crowd of people rushed in.

Simon's pupils suddenly shrunk, and he snorted. "He's so quick!"

Joshua's men strode in with anger. After a chaotic fight, the masked men scattered and fled out of the back door.

Hazel could see everything and was about to shout Joshua's name when she suddenly felt around muzzle against her waist.

"Pumpkin, even if you shout, he won't hear you." Simon chuckled in her ear. "Come on, since he's coming, and it's time for us to leave."

She bit her lip hard. There was no way she was willing to leave with Simon, she could not predict what would happen. What if he took her out of the country? Was there any way she could leave Joshua a clue?

"Let's go. Don't dream about the impossible," Simon said with a sly look in his eyes. "Can't you see that Joshua came here to rescue Mandy?"

Joshua, who chased away the masked men, ran up behind Mandy and grabbed her wrist as if Simon was directing him.

Mandy turned around after Joshua released her hands from the restraints and immediately wrapped her arms tightly around Joshua, like a snake coiling around prey.

"Joshua, you finally came to save me. I knew you would!" She exclaimed.

Hazel didn't know what to think, her heart was confused. She clenched her fists tightly and helplessly walked out with the gun at her back.

She was reluctant to leave and looked back. As she looked, she saw Joshua take off his coat and put it around Mandy. Simon put his arm around her waist and forced her to walk away.

Joshua pushed Mandy away in disgust. He had mistakenly thought that she was Hazel, he never expected to find Mandy there. He noticed that Mandy still wanted to throw her arms around him, he said coldly, "You guys, get her out of here! Take her home!"

"No, Joshua, I want you to go home with you. I'm scared..." Mandy looked pathetic. "What if the people who take me are bad people?"

"Do you think my people are bad?" His eyes were cold. "Then you can go home by yourself. Let's go!"
