Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Chapter 240: Did They Get Back Together?



Hazel went to Theresa’s room to apologize for not finding the time to speak with her when she asked. However, knowing that Hazel felt bad, Theresa was more embarrassed than her.

Theresa heard that Lanny and Caroline were arrested and taken to the police station. She was not angry at all but felt that she had brought a lot of trouble on Hazel.

The two of them had barely been talking for a minute when Theresa’s cell phone rang. It was an old phone that Henry gave her to use so that they could contact her. She was mortified to leave Hazel waiting in her room while she ran to the balcony to answer it.

Hazel waited patiently in the room, but she was surprised to hear that Theresa sounded angry and anxious as she argued with the person on the other end. Hazel frowned, she had got along with Theresa but knew very little about her personality.

What happened to the Flores family that would actually make Theresa get that angry?This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

The person on the phone seemed to be scolding her, and Theresa was not talking. She walked in from the balcony with a scowl on her face.

“Hazel, my parents have gone too far!” Theresa said with a look of outrage.

“What’s wrong?” Hazel asked.

Theresa was ashamed of everything, including requesting the money, houses, and cars from Joshua.

Hazel was a bit stunned, and she quietly asked, “he promised them?”

Theresa suddenly stopped, she was hesitant and didn’t know if she should confirm or deny it.

Hazel’s heart sank slightly, and she guessed the answer. She looked at Theresa and said with a light face, “It doesn’t matter, just say it.”

Theresa replied, “He promised.”

“Okay…” Hazel sighed, and the inexplicable heart was somewhat complicated.

Joshua will be good to the Flores family, and she was not really surprised, but she did not think that he should treat them so well. It seemed like regardless of what they requested, he would agree. It may have come across that Hazel was too stingy, but she felt she was cautious.

There were protests in Joshua’s heart, so he stubbornly refused to reunite with the Flores family, but in fact, it appeared that he still cared about them.

Hazel’s eyes flashed. If this was the case, no matter how bad her impression of the Flores family was, she should be more open, even if it was for Joshua.

“How can Mr. Denmark promise?” Theresa asked curiously.

“He treats your family good, are you still not happy?” Hazel smiled. “Your parents still remember you, and that is very good.”

“They have asked for my share, but they will never give it to me.” Theresa knew her position at home, and she said with a look of sadness. “And I am worried…”

“Worried?” Looking at her look, Hazel could not help but ask.

“I am worried that Mr. Denmark treated my parents too good.” After careful consideration, Theresa finally said it out.

“Why? Can you tell me?” Hazel asked doubtfully. Theresa was scared, and she would not say that for no reason.

Theresa looked at Hazel with some hesitation. She took a deep breath and knew she had to tell her, she sighed and said, “Hazel, I need to tell you something.”

Hazel nodded.

“My sixth brother is the only one to go to college in our family. He graduated five years ago and brought his girlfriend home with him. It was said that his girlfriend was leaving her family to be with my brother. However, my mother did not like his girlfriend very much,” Theresa said slowly.

“She wanted my brother to marry a beautiful girl from the village next to us. The girl’s family knew my brother was a college student, so my family not only wanted the money for the bride but also an extra 50, 000.”

Hazel’s eyes sunk down, and she understood what Theresa was saying.

“But my mom didn’t say anything in front of my brother. Instead, she wrapped 1, 000 in an envelope with a red ribbon and said that it was a meeting gift for his girlfriend.”

Theresa said, “My brother didn’t know that my mom secretly took the money out again, only put two hundred in it. Then, my mother gave the envelope to his girlfriend. When she opened it, she told my brother that there was only two hundred. My brother got extremely angry, though it was her who was lying and broke up with her.”

Hazel was stunned and had to say that Caroline’s tricks were really clever and it was hard to defend. She had to say, “The thickness of one thousand and two hundred should be different. Couldn’t your brother see the difference?”

“He couldn’t see it, and he believed in my mother so much,” Theresa said with a sigh. “As I said, he broke up with his girlfriend, so she went back to her family. It was by accident that he found out the truth, when he did, he went to try and get her back. He found out that she was rich, but he did not know when they were together because she turned her back on them to be with him.”

“Later?” Hazel asked if she was intrigued. “Did they get back together?”

Theresa replied, “Of course not. She has already been hurt by my brother. After she reconciled with her family, she met a man who treated her very well. By the time my brother realized the truth, she was already married. My mother found out and later regretted it. My brother has broken all ties to my family because of this, he has not been home in a very long time.”

“I think it is a happy ending,” Hazel said with a smile. “For the girl, I would think she should be very grateful for not marrying your brother.”

“Hazel,” Theresa looked at her sadly. “You really don’t understand what I mean?”

“Do not worry,” Hazel smiled lightly. “I understand that you are worried that I will encounter the same thing. But don’t worry. I have confidence in Joshua, and he will not be so easy to be fooled. I am confident in the relationship between him and me…”

Hazel lowered her eyes awkwardly and walked out of Theresa’s room.

Although she could smile and act as if she wasn’t affected in front of Theresa, her heart felt empty. Theresa was reminding her that Caroline was not only hard to get along with, but she always had various means of getting her own way.

If Joshua really trusted the Flores family, could her relationship with Joshua really not go wrong? Even if he trusted her as well, Joshua would be caught in the middle. Hazel really hoped that one day the feelings between them would not become the root of their pains.

She had her head down and suddenly ran into a strong chest.

“Oh!” Hazel looked up and saw Joshua standing in front of her.

“Why don’t you watch where you are walking?” He reached out and touched her head gently.
