Hazel did not know what to say. When Joshua was ho, he helped her bake so love cookies. It was sothing romantic that they did, there was nothing wrong with it, so why did Caroline scold her?
The Flores family really did not show any respect for won. They thought that she should stay in the kitchen?
"He was willing to help ," Hazel said, and she got sowhat angry. She said with a dissatisfied face. "One of his favorite things to do is to make all kinds of delicious food. We enjoy it. We have done nothing wrong!"
"You..." Caroline was angry. Lanny touched her arm and said, "They are a new couple, let's not talk too much."
Caroline pressed down the anger in her heart, and the more she saw Hazel, the more unpleasant she felt. If Joshua still refused to reunite with them, then she must teach Hazel so lessons. A woman who knew nothing, how dare she order Joshua Denmark? She was so arrogant.
Joshua frowned slightly. He felt the atmosphere in the room was a bit odd. Why did this couple have such a strange attitude towards him, and why did they try to control his life?
"Hazel was right," he said. "As long as she is happy, I want to do whatever she wants, besides, what age is it now if the kitchen is a woman's place, what should the male chefs do?"
Hazel's heart was happy. She did not expect that Joshua would support her in front of the Flores family. She was so thankful that she leaned over and kissed him.
Caroline's face beca even more twisted. In her opinion, Hazel did not understand things and was also deliberately trying to ruin their relationship with Joshua. Even though Hazel helped them, Caroline still had no respect for her.
What made her most uncomfortable was that Joshua clearly did not want to reunite with them, but he was so obedient to Hazel. How did she let this happen? She had to find an opportunity to vent her anger.
When lunch was ready, everyone walked to the dining room.
Theresa was hesitant, though, so Hazel took her hand and led her to the table.
As the two of them pulled out their chairs, Caroline suddenly slamd her hand down on the table and shouted, "Theresa, what is the matter with you? We have raised you properly, how can you still be so rude? You were born a girl, a waste of money. What qualifications do you have to eat at the dinner table? Wait over to the side, and you can eat when we are finished.
Theresa was so scared that she stood up straight, and Hazel had not sat down yet. When she heard Caroline say that to her daughter, her head snapped up, and she gave Caroline an ice-cold glare.
Caroline may have been scolding Theresa, but she was implying it about Hazel as well. Hazel never thought in this era that the Flores family would still follow such an old tradition.
The tradition was that won could not sit at the table to eat until they had finished their als. Obviously, Caroline was also a woman, but she was one who oppressed won at every opportunity.
"It turns out that won can't eat at the table at your ho?" Hazel said with a look of indifference. She said coldly, "You are also a woman, why are you able to eat at the table?"
"That is because I gave birth to seven sons!" Caroline said with a proud face.
Hazel was speechless, and Caroline's words really aggravated her to the bottom of her soul. Is it an outstanding achievent to have a son? If she hadn't had those many children, would they still have been poor and had to sell their kids?
Joshua's eyes sunk slightly, and he was very curious as to why Hazel would help the Flores family. The relationship between Hazel and that woman was taut, he tolerated the family, but he was not stupid, he saw that she was deliberately targeting Hazel.
"Sit down," Joshua said. "In our family, there are no such rules."
A scowl ford on Caroline's face, Joshua was clearly slapping her in the face with his comnt.
Hazel again took Theresa's hand and led her to the table. Caroline could not say anything but sit and look infuriated.
Joshua went on to say, "Besides, when you are a guest at soone else's ho, you should not scream and yell. It makes you look very rude."
Joshua's comnts embarrassed Caroline, she did not think that Joshua would reprimand her for Hazel. Lanny could see that Caroline was going to explode, so he quickly pulled her aside and said, "Mr. Denmark is right. We are guests, we should abide by their rules."
Caroline suddenly snapped back to reality and realized that Joshua still refused to reunite with them. They could not talk like his biological parents. She could tell that no matter what they said, Joshua did not care very much, and if Hazel were involved, he would never consider reuniting even if he was face to face with them.
Caroline lowered her head, but her eyes suddenly beco cold. Joshua was so obsessed with Hazel, she must find a way to separate them. She would absolutely not allow a woman to have such a profound influence on him.
It was obvious that the Flores family was a naturally unhappy group of people. The atmosphere in the room was heavy and gloomy, the more ti Hazel spent with them, the unhappier she felt.
However, Joshua seed to be completely unaffected. As usual, he calmly gave Hazel a dish and briefly talked with her about work. Hazel's anger eased with his gentle voice.
After eating lunch, Caroline suddenly said, "Hazel, we just arrived in the city for the first ti, and we are not familiar with this place. Can you spend so ti taking us for a walk around?"
Hazel frowned slightly. What was Caroline thinking? Although she did not want to take them if she did, Caroline knew that Joshua would naturally follow. Was the Flores family just trying to get an opportunity to spend more ti with Joshua?
If this is the case, she had no reason to refuse, "Okay..."
The word was barely out of her mouth when she heard Joshua say, "Hazel is really busy. If you want to travel to the city, I can arrange for others to accompany you."
"Thank you," Lanny answered.
Their plan was indeed what Hazel assud. However, Joshua's offer was the best they could get. Even though there would be no chance to contact Joshua or Hazel, they could stay in the city for a while longer.
