Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Chapter 269: Tell Me The Truth



“Didn’t you hear her? Let me go!” Lily shouted angrily.

Joshua’s eyes shone slightly, and he looked at Lily coldly. She was scared to her core and dared not say anything more. This man was terrible. If she offended him, she was afraid she would be sent to jail.

Hazel looked and thought it was somewhat funny. It seemed that Lily really learned a lesson this time.

The physical injury was less important because Lily seemed to have suffered a lot of mental blows. Lily used to look at Joshua with fantasies, but her eyes are full of disenchantment, and she just wanted to run and avoid him.

It was as if she was awakened by nightmares, but the worst part was that she was not asleep.

“Why are your clothes wet?” Hazel’s eyes fell on him. She noticed as soon as she walked in, but she never had a chance to ask.

“There was tea poured on me, but it was not serious” Joshua’s eyes shone. He asked in a deep voice, “Why did you give her clothes?”

Hazel was stunned, Joshua never asked her the reason she did things. She had no idea how to answer.

“Umm… I didn’t like them very much, so I gave them to her.” Hazel casually found the reason.

Joshua only felt pain in his heart. He was very unhappy, not because Hazel said that she did not like the clothes he chose, he clearly saw that Lily threatened Hazel.

No one knew Hazel’s temper better than him. Hazel liked to be honest when she did anything. Why would she give her clothes to Lily? There was only one possibility, Lily asked for the clothes, and Hazel had no choice but to agree.

His Hazel, how free and easy she was in the past. She dared to love and hate. But now, she had learned to suffer. She was obviously threatened, and he was not aware of it. He realized that after Hazel met the Flores family, everything changed, he was not paying enough attention, and things developed further than he had thought.

“Hazel,” Joshua looked at her deeply, “Tell me the truth!”

“What, what is the truth?” Hazel looked at him blankly, she did not hide anything.

Joshua’s eyes were slightly dim. Hazel didn’t trust him enough because she thought he couldn’t help her deal with the threat, so she said nothing.

Looking at his angry face, Hazel said, “Those clothes… can’t be given to others?”

“If you are happy, you can give,” Joshua said indifferently with disappointment in his voice.

Hazel felt persecuted, she didn’t want Joshua to be upset. She endured all of the trouble from the Flores family and even let Lily bully her. However, Joshua got angry with her over a few items of clothing. She truly did not care how much the Flores family hated her, but she was hurt that Joshua was angry with her.

He looked at Lily. Hazel took a deep breath and suppressed the thoughts in her mind.

“It was not serious, anyway, those things were given to me, they were my things. It should have been okay, no matter how it was dealt with. But you didn’t like it, so I won’t give anything else away.” Hazel said, “It’s already so late, you should go take a shower and change out of these wet clothes, so you don’t catch a cold.”

Joshua looked at her for a while. He snorted, turned around, and walked out of the dining room. Hazel felt mentally drained as she watched him walk away.

“Miss Crowe, Sir Denmark has not had dinner yet.” Nanny Carter came to her side and said helplessly.

“Ah?” Hazel opened her mouth. No wonder Joshua was in the dining room.

It seemed that he had just returned home, but he went to get a shower after she told him to.

“And, all of your things were personally selected by Sir Denmark,” Nanny Carter whispered, “He is afraid that you would have felt pressured, so he didn’t want us to tell you.”

“Ah?” Hazel said again, and her mouth was opened wider. No wonder Joshua was so angry with her, those were personally picked him. Everything had his expression of love, but she gave it away to one very annoying woman. She must have really hurt his feelings.

Hazel was worried. “Is his midnight snack done?”

“It’s already done,” Nanny Carter said.

“Then give it to me, I will take it to him,” she said.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Okay.” Nanny Carter looked back at Lily. “What about her?”

“Since it is a misunderstanding, let her go back to sleep. I believe she will be honest in the future.” Hazel thought for a moment, “Oh, how did Joshua want to deal with it?”

Nanny Carter told her what happened. Hazel frowned, she hated when Lily touched her things. She was unwilling to give them to her, but it would have been a great waste just to destroy them.

“We can disregard the clothes she has worn. But we can sell those she didn’t wear. The selling price can be lower than the original, and the money can be used for charity.” Hazel thought for a while and said,

“Okay, I will do it.” Nanny Carter was somewhat surprised, but she agreed immediately.

The servants let go of Lily. Lily struggled to get the clothes off, but they were too tight, so a maid had to bring her a pair of scissors to cut herself out of them.

Looking at all of the destroyed clothing, Lily really wanted to cry. The clothes were ruined, Joshua hated her, and her dreams of him were gone. Even if she could see Joshua again, she did not want to, and there was no way she wanted to stay at Denmark Residence.

Everyone would look at her like she was a fool, she was shameless, but she was young and could not bear being laughed at. She looked at the cut-up clothes again and fled to her room.

***

Hazel took a deep breath and calmed herself as much as she could before she went to take the food to Joshua.

The Flores family was waiting for her to fight with Joshua; she could not be defeated by them. If the relationship between her and Joshua were ruined, they would like the happy ones.

“Joshua, open the door!” Hazel shouted.

The door opened, and Joshua stood there, with only a towel wrapped around his waist.

Hazel was shocked by his half-naked body. She was shaking, and she felt so weak that she almost dropped the tray of food she was holding.
