Novel Full Chapter 1380 - 668: I’ll Keep Mom Safe
Hazel, who became a kid's mom, had a maternal instinct to protect him. Ted had relented at the last minute indeed, but that wasn't enough to make her put her kid in danger.
"Arrange for more guards to guard our baby," Hazel couldn't help speaking.
"I'll. Don't worry." Joshua smiled.
Simon couldn't help but give Joshua a thumbs up when Hazel didn't notice him. Joshua was really smart as his several words dispelled Hazel's doubts. Now Ted really wasn't worth their care.
"Mom…" Hazel looked apprehensively at Stacy. "Where will you sleep tonight?"
Stacy used to live at the manor. Now she was full of curiosity about everything, but they didn't want her to be too tired. What was more, Ted would never give up on Stacy.
If Stacy didn't have enough bodyguards around her, Ted would definitely try every means to harass her.
"Simon..." Stacy looked at Simon.
"Come to my place, mom," Simon said. "Don't worry. I'll keep mom safe."
Hazel nodded with relief.
After Stacy left with Simon, Joshua sat by her and took her hand gently.
They were alone in the ward. Hazel stared at him quietly, feeling it was hard-won, quiet, and beautiful at this moment.
"Joshua..." she whispered.
His eyes were full of tenderness. "I am here."
"I'm very happy," she said emotionally. This was what she thought. Now, the people she cared about were all fine, and the baby was born safely. Although he was born prematurely, even the doctors said their baby was healthy and strong. As long as they took good care of it for a while, it would be no weaker than a full-term baby.
"Mmm, I'm happy, too," Joshua said and kissed Hazel's finger. She was always his only concern. As long as she was safe, everything would be fine.
"Give our baby a name," she said with a slight smile. "You must have an idea, don't you?"
His eyes sparkled, and he nodded at last.
"What is it?" she asked curiously.
"How about Marcus Denmark?" he responded by asking, with deep eyes.
Her eyelids twitched, and she suddenly exclaimed, "You, you, you... Do you remember everything?" Her biological father's name was exactly Marcus Denmark.
If it hadn't occurred to him, why would he suddenly mention Marcus Denmark?
"Yes." He didn't deny it.
Her eyes instantly brightened, and she hurried to clutch his hand. "Since when?"
"I've been thinking of some things in the past intermittently for the last six months, but it's all very vague," he said in a deep voice, his eyes twinkling. "I couldn't remember the past clearly until I took you to the hospital. Hazel, I was really sorry and grieved to see you so painful, and it was then that my mind exploded, and all the memories came back to me."
At that moment, he thought something bad would happen to Hazel.
When all the memories came flooding back crazily, he realized why he remembered his feelings for Hazel even though he had forgotten everything.
He and Hazel had been through a lot of troubles and difficulties. But, even if he lost his memory, how could he possibly give up the girl he loved deeply?
Hazel clutched his fingers, her eyes blurred with tears.
She didn't care if Joshua could remember the past because he who didn't remember the past treated her as well as before, but those memories that belonged to them were the scenery that they had seen together and the most precious wealth that belonged to them. If she were the only one who remembered them, she would inevitably feel lonely sometimes.
Now he remembered all the past at long last. So he finally became her husband entirely, and her Joshua.
"Honey, I miss you so much…." Joshua put his arms around her neck, and his forehead was pressed against her forehead. After his memories came back, it felt like he was reunited with Hazel, and no matter how he stared at her, it wasn't enough.
"So do I. I miss you very much too," Hazel whispered.
He leaned over and kissed her lips, trembling. It was like a dry leaf meeting a spark, and the kiss was soon out of control.
They kissed each other passionately until there was a knock on the door.
Joshua frowned with displeasure.
"Go to open the door," she urged. "There might be something urgent."
"I'll be back soon." He dropped a kiss on her forehead. He probably knew who it was.
He got up, opened the door, and found Ted waiting outside with somewhat trepidation.
Joshua closed the door and motioned for him to follow.
They did not go far but came to the end of the corridor. Joshua looked down the corridor and stared at the door of Hazel's ward. He wanted to make sure that if anything happened, he would be able to go back in time.
"Joshua, I..." Ted wanted to talk, but suddenly he had no idea where to start.
If he hadn't met Simon, he might have said what he had wanted to say. However, after being scolded by Simon, he felt that what he had wanted to say was too unreasonable.
"Mr. King, I have only five minutes for you," Joshua spoke coldly.
Ted was silent. Somehow it seemed to him that Joshua had become different. While Joshua was willing to maintain his respect for his father in the past, now Joshua was not even willing to disguise his dislike.
Taking a deep breath, Ted briefly explained why he had come. "As to what happened before... I know there's nothing I can do to make up for you, and I don't want to ask you for forgiveness, I won't bother you and Hazel anymore, I hope you'll be both happy, but... I want Stacy back."
Joshua' eyes were cold. Presumably, Ted had tried to harass Stacy when she left, but he didn't succeed.
"Mr. King, my mother's mind has returned to normal," Joshua spoke coldly.
"I know…" said Ted, his eyes full of genuine joy.
"Now that you know that, then why don't you understand that she is an independent person, with her own thoughts and choices? Why do you treat her as an object that others can hand over to?" Joshua spoke coldly.
Ted's face turned very pale. "There's some misunderstanding between her and me."
"So you're going to regard her as an object and keep her around you forever?" Joshua's eyes flashed with a touch of sarcasm. "Mr. King, what you need is not family members but inflatable dolls."
