"Didn't I help you out yesterday?" he said softly.
"What help?" She freaked out. "Who would help like that? You took to another room and took my clothes off… If I had not run out of there as fast as I did, who knows what you would have done?"
The smile on the corners of his lips softened a little.
He had really been afraid she would keep it in her heart because she was too shy to ntion it. If so, there would always be a gap between them.
It was great that she was willing to speak out, then his explanation would be more convincing to her.
"I just think the birthmark on your chest is very special, so I want to see it clearly." He wasn't trying to hide it from her. "I'm sorry that I scared you."
She was stunned. Yesterday all he had wanted was to see her birthmark clearly? Co to think of it, he didn't seem to do anything out of line.
"Why didn't you just say that?" She asked questioningly.
"What do you want to say?" He opened his mouth gently. "Did you want to ask, 'Miss, your birthmark is very special. Could you show your chest'?"
"Poo~" She snorted with laughter, amused.
If another man had said it, she would have thought he was shallow. But when he said this, he had a serious poker face, which made her feel amused.
His mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners. "Would you believe that?"
"No." She thought for a bit and shook her head in the end.
"Hazel, do you still hate ?" he asked.
She struggled for a while before she still nodded.
Joshua had helped her a lot. Her feelings for him were not so much dislike as resistance to his approach. She didn't know why.
She had a gut feeling that he was very dangerous and she should keep away from him.
Joshua was helpless to so degree. The misunderstanding between them had all been cleared up. Why did Hazel still hate him? Suddenly a thought flashed through his mind.
"Or because of that kiss?" He mused. "Was that your first kiss?"
She felt both shy and angry.
She turned her head in anger. "No."
"Then you've won," he chuckled, "because that was my first kiss."
"How is that possible?!" She looked at him in surprise.
He was such a good kisser… She could tell him that, though.
But he seed to have guessed what she was going to say. He said, "Hazel, n can always learn in so way."
She was shy, angry, and annoyed. Why did Joshua always like to tease her?
Looking out of the window, she cried as if she had found an escape route, "All right, stop here!"
"We are not in front of your school yet." He frowned. "I'll take you to the dorm…"
"Never!" She quickly refused. "Your car is too conspicuous. If I go to school in such a nice car, I don't know what rumors others will spread. Don't ss up my quiet college life!"
"Ok." He parked his car on the side of the road.
After she got out of the car, she saw Joshua get out and follow her.
"Why are you following ?" she asked, confused.
"To make sure you get back safely," he said naturally. "My car is conspicuous, but rest assured, my whole being is inconspicuous."
"..." She was speechless. How could he be inconspicuous?
He was handso and dignified in good conscience, and his whole being had a charming temperant similar to that of a male god. They would definitely be the focus when they walked onto the campus.
She was still thinking of how to say no when she heard soone saying her na, "Hazel Crowe!"
When she looked up, she couldn't help but frown. It wasn't soone important who stopped her. It was Derek Sanchez.
Looking at Joshua standing next to Hazel, Derek questioned her in exasperation, "Who is he? And, what is your relationship?"
Her facial expression was full of anger, she could not stand him questioning her in this manner.
However, before she could speak, Joshua's eyes twinkled, and he suddenly put his arm over her shoulder.
"You..." Hazel was shy and anxious, subconsciously trying to dodge him.
"Be good." He squeezed her arm lightly and whispered in her ear, "I'll help you get rid of this man."
She was a little startled.
Joshua looked at Derek defiantly. "Can't you see what our relationship is?"
Derek was unwilling to accept it.
Hazel didn't want him before, but she didn't have another boyfriend, either.
He could at least console himself with the fact that she must have regretted not being with him, and that was why she didn't date other n.
But the man in front of him was different.
Hazel was charming, but she was always a little heartless in front of him. But in front of this man, she acted like a little girl.
"What nonsense?" Hazel stared at Joshua angrily.
"I didn't say anything." He looked innocent.
"Co on, why are you looking at ?" She asked impatiently.
"Well, Hazel, I went to the police station to try and bail Kyla out of jail, but they wouldn't let her go. Do you really want to sue her?" Derek was dismal.
Hazel gave Joshua a look.
Derek's family was well-off, but he still couldn't save Kyla Lee. It looked like Joshua Denmark had told the police sothing.
"Yeah, I'm going to sue her." Hazel nodded, not wanting to say much to him. "She better be prepared for a long stay."
"I'll get the best lawyer for you," Joshua said casually.
"You're going to ruin her." Derek looked at her disbelievingly. "Hazel Crowe, are you really going to ruin her life because of such a trivial thing?"
"Derek, you have two different types of standards." Hazel looked at him, confused.
"Didn't you see Kyla ruin my life when she falsely accused ? I'm defending my rights, but you think I'm ruining her? Oh, that's right. She's your girlfriend. Of course, you would help the one who you are sleeping with instead of the one who is right."
