Chapter 40: Don’t Judge So Quickly
Hazel was a bit surprised.
She knew he was the noble Master Joshua so finding out these things would be simple for him.
But why did he personally come to find her?
"Let's go back first," Joshua whispered, "Or, do you like to talk about things in the rain?"
Hazel hesitated for a second but finally got into the car.
Joshua shut the umbrella and sat in the driver's seat. He took out a clean towel and wanted to wipe Hazel’s face.
"Let me do it myself." She hurriedly grabbed the towel.
"Don't catch a cold." Joshua twitched his lips.
Hazel answered with a low voice and gently wiped her face and hair.
Then she looked at Joshua and couldn't help but ask, "Did you forget to take your pills?"
His voice was a bit hoarse. He was still sick.
Joshua looked calmly out of the front windshield as if he hadn't heard it.
"Hey, you!" Hazel said angrily, "You don't care about your own body. Do you plan to let others care for you?"
"Yup." Joshua nodded.
"To hell with yup!" She stared at him, speechless.
"I'll let you manage it in the future," Joshua said with a smile.
Hazel felt her head had just grown bigger.
She looked at Joshua awkwardly and could not speak.
When did she say "she would manage it"?
Was he blaming her for being nosy? She had been a little nosy.
Hazel rubbed her hair slightly, "Take me back to the villa, please."
"Sure," Joshua answered.
***
Ivan got a call from Karla, and several people went to find her.
When he only saw Karla there, Ivan worried, "Karla, where's Hazel?"
Karla bit her lip in annoyance.
She was in pain and soaked from the rain, but Ivan asked about Hazel first.
There was some jealousy in Karla's eyes.
She said with annoyance, "How do I know? She ran around in this dangerous place! I just criticized her for a second, then she pushed me down the hillside, and I sprained my foot! When I climbed up, she left me behind and was gone! How would I know where she is?"
Ivan was stunned by Karla. He said slyly, "Karla, I have no other reason to ask other than Hazel is not familiar with this place..."
"No other reason? You clearly blame me for not keeping an eye on her!" Karla sneered, "She is unfamiliar with this place. Did you suggest that I coaxed her here, and then I jumped down the hill myself?"
"Well, Karla, don't be angry. Ivan was worrying." Claire Livingston said. Then she frowned and asked, "Where is my camera?"
Karla's face changed slightly. The next moment, she said, "Dear Claire, Hazel got your camera!"
"Do you mean she took my camera?" Claire was in a panic, "My camera is worth tens of thousands! Did she leave you here so she could run away with my camera?"
"Hey, Claire! Hazel is not that kind of person!" Ivan's face changed.
"Then tell me where she is now?" Claire was angry, "Ivan, you know her well, not us. The truth is right in front of you. Are you still arguing for her?"
Ivan spoke with a poker face, "I will call Hazel first and ask where she is. Don't judge so quickly!"
He took out his mobile phone and dialed Hazel's number.
Hazel quickly answered. "Hazel, where are you?" Ivan asked.
Hazel had just got in the car. She looked around and wasn't sure where it was. She said, "Ivan, I am going back to the villa."
"Okay." Ivan sighed, "It’s raining. We are going back too. Let's meet in the villa."
"Oh." Hazel hung up and didn't think much.
Back at the villa, Joshua followed Hazel to her room.
Hazel took out clean clothes. She opened the door of the bathroom and planned to take a shower first.
Joshua looked around and couldn't help but frown, "Living with a group of strangers, you are really easy-going."
"They are all my university mates. What's the problem with that?" Hazel stopped and was not happy.
"Then how did you end up in the woods alone?" Joshua raised his eyebrows, "Just for fun?"
Hazel was dumb. She said angrily, "You get out of here. I need to change clothes!"
"Are you not going to take a shower?" He asked.
"With someone like you in here, I can't take a shower!" Hazel gritted her teeth.
"I won't peek." Joshua twitched his lips slightly, "Anyway, I have seen all. I did not miss any key parts."
"You...!" Hazel's cheeks went red instantly.
Previously, when she was drugged and lost consciousness, Joshua did see her body.
Hazel was annoyed and slammed the bathroom door shut. Joshua sighed helplessly.
This girl was too lighthearted. He only said a sentence, and she walked out of the room with that much confidence. He was a normal man who just wanted to tease her.
Hazel took a quick shower and changed into her clean clothes. When she walked out of the bathroom, she saw Joshua had packed her things.
"Who gave you permission to move my things?" She asked.
"You have been gone for long enough. You should go back to the university now." Joshua said, "When you left all of a sudden, your roommates almost called the police."
"I'm not going back with you!" Hazel bit her lips in annoyance.
"Very well then, your parents will come to the university to find you," Joshua said calmly.
"What about my parents?" Hazel was anxious, "Joshua, what are you planning to do? I warn you, if you dare to lay your hands on my parents, I will kill you!"
"Do you think...I will use them to threaten you?" Joshua was smiling with weakness.
The next moment, he took a big step forward and pinned her against the wall.
"What, what do you want?" Hazel looked at him nervously. What's wrong with this guy? Did he like to play Kabe-Don anytime?
"Hazel, in your heart, what kind of person am I, eh?" He lowered his head, a burning gaze going off his deep dark pupils, leaving her nowhere to run.
"You..." Hazel didn't know what to answer.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise downstairs.
Suddenly clear-headed, Hazel quickly pushed Joshua away and said, "My roommates are back!"
"So, what?" Joshua raised his eyebrows and stopped in front of Hazel again.
