Chapter 306: I Want To Hear From You
“I’m worried,” Joshua could not deny it, and he simply said, “So, you have to be well prepared, and you can’t let them bully you.”
She looked at him in shock. Was she listening correctly?
Joshua, who had always protected her and kept her as far away from disputes as he could, was going to throw her into the center of the whirlpool and asked her to be well-prepared.
“You’ve met most of the directors and have a general knowledge of them, so you don’t have to be too nervous.” As if guessing what she was thinking, he said with a straight face, “Hazel, you’ll meet with the Denmark Group directors sooner or later. It’s better to meet sooner than later.”
She was deep in thought as Joshua’s reasons left her absolutely unable to contest. She was Marcus and Cate’s daughter and would need to confront the directors. She could not continue to hide behind Joshua, and since it needed to be done, she could be prepared with the knowledge she had.
“Okay then, you may arrange it.” She nodded.
A smile curved his lips. Denmark Group’s directors had been cleaned up and those who had tried to plot against Hazel paid the price accordingly. The only directors he would ask Hazel to contact were those who were not dangerous and not a threat to her. Besides, the directors already knew what he was capable of, so they wouldn’t go too far even if they were discontented with Hazel.
Hazel would definitely not be bored when she battled with the directors.
Joshua’s phone rang. When Hazel’s gaze swept across the screen, she was a little surprised because it was Sunny. Did it have anything to do with her?
Joshua gave Hazel a look and pressed the “Speaker,” and Sunny’s voice sounded inside the car.
“Joshua, I saw the child today.” Sunny sighed softly. “I’d like to meet her formally. Help me by asking her for her thoughts and arrange our meeting as soon as possible.”
Joshua looked at Hazel and looked a little hesitant. She wanted to see Sunny even though she and Cate were not biological sisters. Hazel could feel Sunny’s nostalgia for the past.
However, she couldn’t consider what Susan had done to her as nothing, and she didn’t know if Sunny had a role in those incidents, and whether she was a friend or a foe.
“Aunt Sunny,” Joshua said quietly, “I can understand you wanting to meet Hazel, but I don’t think you need to meet her if you keep ignoring some incidents.”
Hazel looked at him gratefully. Sure enough, Joshua knew her very well and could read her expressions as if he had read her thoughts.
“I will apologize to her for what Susan has done. I didn’t teach her very well.” Sunny sighed. “Hazel…is more like her father.”
Hazel looked a little moved.
Joshua hung up and looked at Hazel. “Do you want to see her? If you want to, I can arrange it for you.”
Hazel pondered for a while. What Susan had done was always a thorn in her heart, but she wanted to know more about her parents. Sunny, on the other hand, happened to be the one who knew them best.
“Let’s talk about it later, and I’ll let you know if I want to see her.” She nodded.
“Okay,” Joshua said in a low voice.
After they returned to the Denmark Residence, Hazel learned that Nanny Carter was cleaning her biological parents’ old room, so she went to see her.
“Nanny Carter.” Hazel opened the door.
Nanny Carter, who was holding the photos of Marcus and Cate, had her back to the door and seemed to be missing something. She quickly wiped her tears when she heard Hazel call her.
“Miss Hazel.” Nanny Carter put the photos down and looked at her with all sorts of feelings.
Hazel felt sad. When she announced who she was, the most astonished and excited person was Nanny Carter, but when Rachel and Harry arrived, she was busy with them and did not have a chance to talk to her.
Nanny Carter went to cry in Marcus and Cate’s room more frequently than she did before. Whenever she saw Hazel, she would become sad, she thought Hazel didn’t know but she did.
“I’ve heard people say I look more like my father?” Hazel asked.
Nanny Carter looked at her lovingly, as if she were looking at someone else. She sighed after a long time. “If I look at you closer, you do look more like your father, but you give people a feeling that you’re more like your mother.”
“Is it?” Hazel rested her chin on her hands. “So, what were my parents like? I want to hear from you.”
“Your father was a nice, gentleman,” Nanny Carter was feeling sentimental, but she was willing to tell Hazel everything. “In fact, Joshua’s personality is a little similar to your father’s. After all, he was raised by your father personally, but your father wasn’t as fierce and sharp as Joshua. Your father was really gentle.”
“What about my mother?”
“Miss Cate was a very gentle and kind woman,” said Nanny Carter with a faint smile on her face. “Whoever was near her would like her. But she was too soft, sometimes I wish she was as tough and nimble as you are.”
Hazel was a bit terrified. “So, I’m not very similar to them.”
She didn’t seem to have anything to do with tenderness or kindness, and she certainly wasn’t a person who everyone loved. Her rule was basically that she would be good to whoever was good to her. If anyone were not nice to her, she wouldn’t waste her time with them. Of course, if anyone wanted to plot against her, she would not be hesitant to fight back.
“No, the first time I saw you, I felt like I saw Miss emotionally. “Miss Cate was, in fact, like you. As long as she wasn’t pushed to the breaking point, she didn’t care much or mind at all. Furthermore, she was actually a naughty child, but the education that she received stopped her from doing things that were out of line. In fact, I have long felt that you are more like the perfect self in Miss Cate’s heart.”
“Nanny Carter, I’m embarrassed that you said that.” Hazel’s cheeks were slightly red.
“I mean it.” Nanny Carter sighed helplessly. “If Miss Cate could be half as strong as you, she would not…”
Looking at Nanny Carter sobbing, Hazel also felt sad. “What a pity. Besides, I heard that my father died in a car accident? ”
“Yes.” Nanny Carter was even more upset. “It’s really a pity. Miss Cate had almost walked out of the pain of losing you, and they had been prepared to have another child…”
Hazel was greatly shocked that they were thinking of having another child before her father’s accident. She wondered that if they had another child, would it affect someone’s interests, so the result was her father’s accident.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
