MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

His face turned a little pale, but the next moment he said angrily, "It's different!"

"Of course, it's different," she said coldly, unafraid. "I don't know what happened to you, but you must separate Joshua and me not because you hate me, but because you are unhappy to see we are happy!

"You just want me and Joshua to go through the same experience that you went through because you still don't think you were wrong and keep trying to split us up, trying to prove you were right! Because you want to see Joshua and I split up in this situation, but I'm telling you you will never succeed! Because Joshua is not you, he is not as stubborn and arrogant as you. He trusts me, and I trust him. He'll show you that you have been wrong!"

"What are you talking about?" He was irritated. "Ridiculous! Nonsense!"

"If you think what I said is ridiculous, why are you so angry?" she asked and sneered. "Isn't it because I told you what was in your mind that you became angry with shame?"

"Shut up!" He was even more irritated.

"Hehe," she sneered, looking down at Ted, "Don't you want to take me with you? Come on, Joshua will prove to you that our end is different from yours. He'll make you see that mom doesn't trust you because you have been putting her in danger, ignoring her safety, and you don't deserve to be trusted by her!"

He was about to flare up, but his face paled after he heard her words. "What are you talking about? How could Stacy possibly be in danger?"

Staring at him, she was very shocked, and the next moment, surging anger rose in her heart! She knew what it meant to be conceited and stupid now!

"So you're using all your intelligence against your two sons?!" She almost got crazy because of his words. "So many things have happened since we came to Country M. Didn't you notice anything was wrong? You used Mandy with unknown origin, but you have never thought about who arranged for her to show up? Or do you feel that the people behind her are your allies and will never hurt you?"

His face looked very gloomy. No one ever dared to scold him in the face, but Hazel's words made sense and made him feel she had thrown cold water on him, waking him to reality.

All the people around him feared him. Even if they wanted to say something, they would think it over and over in advance to make sure it would not offend him. Over the years, he had become so accustomed to flattery that he had unconsciously felt that whatever he did was right.

But Hazel's words really made him panicky. He suddenly felt as if he was about to be woken up by her.

"Do you mean, in fact, those people come after me?" He wasn't completely confused. Since they targeted him, they must want to catch Stacy so that they could use her to threaten him.

His face suddenly clouded. "Come on, who's that?"

"Are there many people who have a grudge against you?" There was a flash of impatience in Hazel's eyes. She really didn't want to talk to Ted right now.

He understood instantly and said in disbelief, "Is it, Ian Flores? But I don't think he's that capable."

In a flash, she was angry. She, who was pregnant, had a bad temper, and she had been angry with Ted for a long time. Hearing his current words, her heart was filled with anger.

"If he's not that capable, can he endure the hatred and live around you for so many years? Can he make you think he's very mediocre? Can he find mom and threaten Joshua with her? Can he still arrange spies around you? Whose spy do you think your butler is?

"If he's not Ian Flores's spy, why would a butler set you up to make you and your son fall out? I even think Ian Flores waited for you to 'kidnap' mom so that his spies could catch her! Are you sure that the person who is taking her away now is really your subordinate?"

His face grew paler and paler. Finally, Hazel's blunt words sobered him and made him figure out a lot of things! Only now did he realize how stupid he had been!

The people who took Stacy away weren't his followers who had been following him for many years, so he was not sure if Ian had bought them off!

"Come with me!" Ted waved his hand, beckoning to his bodyguards to help Hazel up.

"Where are we going?" She frowned, unhappy.

"Go to save Stacy with me," he said, looking very pale. "If what you say is true, I'll let you go and not interfere in your affairs with Joshua! But if that's not true, you'll never see Joshua again!"

She was very furious. "So you're not sure they were your subordinates?"

If she hadn't been pregnant, she would have wanted to beat Ted up, even if he were an elder! How could there be such a fool?

Ted didn't say much but asked his bodyguards to take Hazel to the car and drove the car in the direction where Stacy was taken away.

The car was very fast, and the atmosphere in the car was particularly dull.

There was more tension and fear than ever before in Ted's heart. He was reunited with Stacy with difficulty. If anything bad happened to her...

Looking at Hazel, who wore an unhappy face, Ted spoke coldly, "What, you don't want to act in front of me anymore without Joshua? You were talkative just now, why don't you want to speak now?"

Hazel looked at Ted's clenched fingers. She could see that he was nervous and that he was talking to her only to ease his own nerves.

But right now, she really wasn't in the mood to help him out.

Ted had done so many terrible things to her, almost killed her and Joshua's baby, so she took a dislike to him.

"What do you want me to say?" she questioned him coldly. "Do you want me to scold you for deliberately splitting us up and leaving us to go through separation? Or do you want me to scold you for almost killing Simon because of your arrogance? Or do you want me to scold you because you are now going to get mom killed due to your stupidity again?"

Ted's face, which was usually cold, turned white as a sheet.

Hazel's words forced him to face the truth he had been unwilling to face; that was, it was none other than him himself who had been hurting his family, and yet he was arrogant and blamed Hazel for everything!
