Joshua's eyes flickered. He said calmly, "I knew they had been to visit Aunt Jennie, and I always wanted to deal with it in a peaceful manner. I just never thought that they were so persistent or would actually injure Aunt Jennie."
Hazel sighed. When Sharon said it was related to Joshua, she couldn't help but make many assumptions. However, it turned out that it was a simple situation, and now that Jennie was injured, Joshua would definitely bla himself.
"Let's eat." Joshua said, trying to change the subject, "Tomorrow we will go see her."
"Yeah." Hazel nodded.
Just as they were finishing dinner, Joshua received a call from Jennie.
"Joshua," Jennie asked, "Did Hazel tell you everything?"
"You should've called to tell ." Joshua sighed.
"I was afraid to inconvenience you." Jennie said, "Now I want to tell you myself, you don't have to co to see tomorrow. I won't be there."
"Aunt Jennie, are you going out?" Joshua was a little surprised.
"Yeah," Jennie explained. "Jas is back. He said he would take to live with him for a while. We will leave tomorrow morning."
"Then let send you off tomorrow?" Joshua raised his brows.
Jennie refused, "Oh, your relationship with Jas has been bad. If you are here, you two may fight again. So, please allow to save the energy."
Joshua sighed, "Well when you are back, I will see you again with Hazel."
As he hung up, Hazel asked curiously, "What happened?"
Joshua told her his conversation with Aunt Jennie.
"Wait, did you say one of the children in the orphanage does not get along well with you?" Hazel did not believe it; Joshua was so gentle to everyone. How could there be anyone who has a bad relationship with him?
"There's so misunderstanding between us." Joshua looked was a bit depressed.
"That must be his fault." Hazel took his side instantly.
Joshua's eyes flickered, "What if it's my fault?"
Hazel was stunned. She said confidently, "He is still wrong! Even if you did sothing wrong, you would pay ten tis to make up for this mistake. After so many years, he still hates you. That is his problem."
"Unfortunately, so mistakes can never be made up, and so people cannot forgive," Joshua said faintly.
Hazel was a bit baffled. Joshua was moody. But she didn't know what happened or how to comfort him.
Biting her lip, Hazel walked over and put her arms around him.
Joshua sobered up with a little surprise. Was Hazel worried about him?
He whispered, "Hazel, take it easy. But I am very happy; you stand by no matter whether I'm right or wrong."
"Because you are the best person in my mind!" Hazel took it for granted, "I believe in you. You will never do anything too severe to anyone."
Joshua pulled her closer and kissed her.

Since the plan to go to the orphanage was canceled, Hazel decided to work on the online drama. As she was getting ready to go to Joshua-Hazel Pictures and discuss the details of the plan with Sharon, she received a call from Mathew.
"Miss Crowe, can you co to the set?" Mathew said with a little embarrassnt.
"What's wrong?" Hazel asked in confusion, "Director Carter, what happened with the set?"
Mathew said, "Several people ca here and said they wanted to see you. They said they wouldn't leave unless they see you."
"See ? Who are they?" Hazel was sowhat surprised.
Mathew sighed, "We asked, and they wouldn't talk."
After thinking for a long ti, Hazel didn't have a clue. She said, "Well, I'll co over now."
She drove to the set, Mathew was standing outside waiting for her.
"Where are these people?" Hazel asked doubtfully.
"They went to eat nearby. Let's go! I will take you." Mathew asked with so doubts as he walked. "Miss Crowe, could these people be your relatives..."
"Impossible, my relatives would not find the set." Hazel frowned, "And my family doesn't know about this company."
"Then let's go and check. If they ca looking for trouble, we might need to call the police." Mathew said.
Hazel was even more puzzled. Who was looking for her? Why was Mathew so concerned?
Mathew took her to a small restaurant nearby. It was still early in the morning, and there was only one table full of guests.
"That's them." Mathew pointed at the table.
Four people were sitting at the table, an older white-haired couple and a younger couple sitting opposite them, who seed to be the children of the old couple.
The group appeared to be very hungry, and the table was full of empty dishes. They were wearing decent clothes, but they looked dirty, it was as if they were from a small, remote place. However, their actions appeared to be calculated and full of confidence.
Hazel stood there watching them for a few monts, and her mind was utterly blank.
She was pretty sure she didn't know them, but why did they ask to see her?
"Miss Crowe, do you want to call the police?" Mathew asked.
"You wait here. Let check the situation first." Hazel whispered.
She walked closer to the four people and asked, "Are you looking for ?"
"Are you Hazel?" The old woman opened her eyes and looked sharply at her back and forth.
"I am." Hazel frowned, feeling very awkward. The old woman's gaze made her very uncomfortable, just like she was picking out fruit at the supermarket.
"That's good, pay the bill for us, please." The old woman said bluntly.
Hazel said faintly, "We don't seem to know each other. Why should I pay for it?"
"Because Joshua is my biological son." The old woman straightened her waist and said with pride.
As if a bomb exploded in Hazel's head, she was stunned and stood petrified. She could not speak or move.
She blinked a few tis, shook her head, and looked at them again; she felt like it was all a bad dream.
