BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1067 - 355: Try To Believe Me
"Hazel," he said quietly as his fingers slid gently across her cheek. "Do you really not trust me?"
"Huh?" She was nervous instantly.
"No matter how you teased me before, you were just joking, not really because you always remembered our agreement with your parents, and you were determined not to cross the line. But you can\'t wait now."
His eyes were a little sharp. "You are afraid that we may not have a bright future, so you decided to ignore everything, free yourself, and have a good night with me, right?"
"No, no…" She was flustered and tried to deny it, but what Joshua said was just what she had in mind.
"No?" He frowned slightly and sighed helplessly. "Hazel, I\'m not good at guessing girls\' minds, but I\'m also not a fool. If you have something on your mind, just tell me, okay?"
Her heart missed a beat. It turned out Joshua saw through her every move and cared for her so much. However, maybe he was kind to her just because she was the daughter of the Denmark family.
Taking a deep breath, Hazel decided to ask because she didn\'t want to go on thinking nonsense, "Joshua, what would you do if I wasn\'t really the daughter of Marcus and Cate?"
Looking into her burning eyes, Joshua couldn\'t resist frowning. "Hazel, you are the daughter of Denmark\'s family."
"I mean if," she emphasized, "if I were not the daughter, would you still be with me?"
"Hazel," he said with furrowed brows. "I know more than you think. It would be best if you never doubted that you are the daughter of the Denmark family. The assumption that you have is completely wrong."
She was tired of it all, and she began to speak again, "I didn\'t doubt my identity, and I said \'if,\' \'if\'!"
"There\'s no \'if," he said quietly. "Hazel, don\'t worry about the impossible thing. It\'s not worth it."
She was disheartened, and even though she understood what Joshua meant, it was only his point of view that though it was impossible for her not to be part of the Denmark family.
She also knew that nothing she said would change his way of thinking, and even if he did promise her something, he might not be able to fulfill it. However, she really wanted to know his answer even if she was being stubborn.
If Joshua changed his attitude toward her because she was not the Denmark heiress, the only explanation would be that he was nice to hear from the very beginning because of her identity, not because she was Hazel. If that were the case, then he would leave her and be nice to Mandy.
Therefore, even though Joshua\'s point of view could never happen, she still felt that his love might have been for that of Denmark\'s daughter.
"Hazel, have a good sleep and try to believe me," Joshua whispered as he laid down beside her. "I\'m not capable of just saying something sweet to make you happy; I would prefer for you to believe what is in my heart."
"Mmm," she quietly said. Although she still was worried, she didn\'t want to keep struggling, maybe she should try to believe him as he said.
The two of them spent the night in the humble, little room. The conditions were not what they were accustomed to, but they slept soundly.
When Hazel woke up, Joshua\'s side of the bed was empty. She got up and changed into the clean clothes that Joshua had laid out for her.
When she walked into the dining room, she saw the woman and red-haired man at the table.
The woman saw her and quickly got a chair for her. "Mrs. Denmark, have a seat. I was going to help by getting your breakfast, but Mr. Denmark said he would cook you some fish soup himself. Your husband is very nice to you. He cares about you so much!"
Hazel\'s cheeks were red. In the eyes of the woman, she and Joshua were husband and wife, so she couldn\'t say very much, she just nodded and smiled.
"Yes," the red-haired man happily said, "He\'s really very awesome. He taught me a few tricks this morning, and I feel they will come in handy. He also said that he would help me find a job and change my hair."
"Your showy hair should be changed!" the woman cursed. "Thankfully, he can calm you, or I will break your leg if you continue to hang out with those rascals."
"Mom, how could you…" "The red-haired man said unhappily, but the woman got up and chased him.
Hazel smiled as she looked at them, and a moment later, Joshua came out of the kitchen with fish soup.
"Try it." he took a spoonful of soup, blew on it, and put it near her mouth.
Looking shyly around, she saw that the mother and son had already left the dining room.
"Don\'t worry. It doesn\'t matter if you\'re seen." Joshua chuckled.
"You are thick-skinned!" Her cheeks turned red, and she couldn\'t help but curse under her breath. She looked at the spoon and opened her mouth.
"Is it delicious?" he asked.
"Yes!" She couldn\'t resist praising. "There\'s no fishy smell at all! What did you do?"
"All you have to do is drink it," he said with a smile. "It\'s too hard for you to cook."
She felt a little sad. Was she shunned? But she really had no talent for cooking.
Another spoonful of fish soup reached her lips, and her eyes dimmed. The better Joshua treated her, the more confused her heart became. She didn\'t know whether Joshua was nice to her or to the daughter of the Denmark family.
But she could never get the answer from him. After all, in his eyes, she was the daughter of the Denmark family, and he would not separate the two identities.
After Hazel finished her fish soup, she seemed determined and said seriously, "Joshua, let\'s go back."
Joshua cocked his brows slightly.
"I\'ve had a good time. I was happy to be on the run with you." A smile curved her lips. "It was blissful, but it was also pointless and dishonorable. It\'s time for us to go back and face reality."
