Chapter 263: Don’t Bother Me
Susan was shocked and couldn’t speak, Joshua actually indulged Hazel. She said with anger, “If you go on like this, sooner or later, all of your money will be spent by her!”
“I am happy with it,” Joshua said indifferently.
Everything that Susan said to Joshua was blocked, he was only worried if Hazel was happy. Hazel stood by Joshua and laughed to herself. Whether it was Lily or Susan, this is what she always faced; Joshua would stand up for her and drive the women away.
Susan looked at Hazel, who was smiling, and felt even more infuriated.
“Hazel, are you laughing at me?” Susan was furious.
“… No.” Hazel’s lips were slightly twitching. Is Susan just paranoid after everything she has done?
Joshua’s eyes became colder, and he stepped in front of Hazel.
Susan was even more annoyed and more aggravated. She said evilly, “You, you…”
She looked around and saw a cake not far away. Mathew specially ordered the cake to celebrate the banquet, but Susan was fiercely walking toward it.
The whole situation seemed to be happening in slow motion. Hazel was so shocked that she couldn’t move. She just kept thinking, Susan wouldn’t ruin the cake and make trouble here, would she? Would she be so childish?
Hazel tried to move to stop her, but before she reached her, Mandy grabbed her.
“Luna, let’s go back!” Mandy was standing awkwardly in front of Susan to block her from the cake. She had worked with Susan for a long time and knew how idiotic she could be. She realized that if no one dared to stop her, Susan would ruin the banquet.
“You need to let me go!” Susan said angrily.
“The director is still waiting for us. We have been gone too long. Let’s leave!”
Mandy had to try to persuade Susan that she had to let it go.
“… you!” Susan glared at Mandy with anger. She was livid, and if she just left, she would not have the opportunity to vent her anger.
“Don’t bother me!” Susan scolded with annoyance, slapping Mandy across the face. She seemed to have calmed down, she snorted and walked out. Mandy covered her cheek and followed behind her.
“I am terrified that she will make trouble.” Hazel sighed. She frowned. “But with her temper, I am afraid it is difficult for her to play any tricks purposely.”
The Flores family suddenly came to mind, Hazel had always suspected Susan was behind their scheme. However, the Flores family seemed to have had no connection with Susan, and as she had thought before, her personality made it hard to put plans in place.
“This may not be true.” Joshua deepened his eyes. “She doesn’t have tricks, but the people around her will.”
“You mean her mother?” Hazel looked a little stunned. She only met Sunny once, and that meeting was not enough for her to judge what kind of person Sunny was. But from what Joshua had told her, she could sense his fear of her.
Sunny, presumably, was not a simple person. Hazel had to ask, “Isn’t she still abroad? Even if she could control Susan, she could not help if there was something wrong with Susan.”
“I just said it casually.” Joshua smiled slightly, and he looked at her with dark and deep eyes. “Couldn’t she do something and let Susan think she has many tricks?”
Hazel felt very unsettled. Joshua was too clever, and she never could hide anything from him.
“How would that be possible, though?” Hazel smiled.
Suddenly, the noise came from the other room, and Hazel frowned slightly. “What happened?”
Someone heard that Susan told people she went to congratulate Mathew but was only bullied when she tried to speak to him, so people wanted to get revenge.
“She really can make trouble for others, can’t she?” Hazel was shocked. It seemed that Susan intended to turn her guests against Mathew.
Susan’s family was rich, and even though the people in the entertainment circle may not like her, they would not dare to offend her. That was the only reason why she was able to have so many people at her party. If she really wanted to cause trouble for Mathew, then the future of Joshua-Hazel Pictures would be tough.
In the other hall, the crowd got louder and louder. A drunk man suddenly appeared in the doorway of the smaller hall and yelled angrily, “Who is Mathew?”
Hazel recognized the man, he was from a rich family, and because he was interested in the entertainment circle, he had a history with Susan. He must have been looking to avenge Susan.
“I am.” Mathew stood up.
“You dare to bully Luna,” the man said angrily. “I have heard all about Luna’s affairs with you. Isn’t it that you asked her to make a movie and she refused? She came here to congratulate you, and you just bullied her! I want you to apologize to her now!”
“If I don’t?” Mathew was stubborn but also very angry.
The man grabbed his arm in anger and said in a huff. “Then I will take you to her! I will make you apologize to her if it is the last thing I do!”
Hazel’s face was dark and angry. The man was drunk, but still, he had the nerve to threaten Mathew. The banquet may be ruined after all.
“Stop!” Joshua said in a deep voice. He walked two steps forward and grabbed the wrist of the drunk man.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
The man suddenly complained, and he looked up angrily. “Who, who dares to be so bold…”
His red face suddenly became pale. He shook his head, unsure if he saw right, Joshua Denmark was standing in front of him?
“Sir, Mr. Denmark?” The man was emotionless and suddenly sobered up. The man holding his arm was clearly Joshua Denmark, one of the top people you should not offend.
“Yes,” Joshua said with a long face. The most important thing was to calm down the crowd and to resolve the conflict. “You are drunk! You need to go wash your face and sober up some more.”
“Yes, I will go now…” The man acted like he was facing a strong enemy and rushed away.
He was only gone for a few minutes when he returned. Hazel felt sick, thinking that he was there to cause more trouble.
“Sir Denmark, I’m sorry, I just drank too much,” he said smiling. “I want to ask, have you invested in this movie?”
“No.” Joshua shook his head.
