BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1350 - 638: What Exactly Is Going On?
He would not have been able to find her so quickly had it not been for the locator, even if he received her text message.
She took his hand and motioned for him to sit beside her. He sat down, and she leaned lightly on his shoulder. He put his arms around her. They cuddled up together and felt like they had survived a disaster.
They didn\'t want to speak with this kind of warm and reassuring feeling for fear of breaking the quiet, beautiful atmosphere.
But suddenly, there was a sharp knock at the door. Joshua frowned in displeasure.
Hazel didn\'t like to be interrupted, but it looked like there should be something urgent.
"Let them come in. Let\'s ask what happened," she whispered.
"Good." He got up and sat up straight. He said to the door in a deep tone, "Come in!"
The door of the ward opened. No one came in, except for Simon, who walked in with a solemn face.
"What are you doing here?" Joshua looked at him with surprise.
"I heard Hazel had an accident, so I came," Simon said in a deep voice, with a solemn face. "Before I came, I went to visit the butler at the manor. He\'s… dead."
"Dead?!" Both Joshua and Hazel were very shocked.
Because he was worried with Hazel, Joshua had the butler detained for questioning. But the butler actually died so soon?
Simon nodded with an unhappy face. Had it not been for this incident, he would not need to disturb them at such a time.
"What exactly is going on?" Joshua asked in a deep tone.
"Someone pretended to be a hospital nurse and gave the butler an injection that made him suffer from shock," Simon sat down on a chair in the ward and said with an air of dejection. "I get the monitor video. The nurse has a strong ability to counter detect. She\'s already gone."
Joshua frowned tightly. It seemed there must be someone else who colluded with the butler. After the butler failed, the other party was afraid the butler would reveal something, so he took advantage of the chaos to kill and silence the butler.
He didn\'t expect the butler, who was supposed to give Hazel an oxytocin injection and even try to kill her and her husband, would be actually killed by her partner\'s injection.
"You\'d better think carefully what you will explain it to the old man," Simon said, frowning. "I\'m afraid he\'ll think we kill the butler to silence him on purpose."
"We don\'t need to explain it," Joshua said. "I have a bet with him. Three days later, I\'ll talk to him."
"What bet?" Simon asked in surprise. He had heard the incident that had happened at the hospital from Joshua\'s subordinates, but he really didn\'t know about Joshua\' bet with Ted.
Even Hazel looked at Joshua curiously.
Joshua calmly explained the bet to them. Hazel\'s eyes flashed with sadness as she felt sorry for Joshua. It was really not Joshua\'s fault that Joshua and Ted had such a bad relationship. Joshua had tried, but Ted was too stubborn. She sensed that Joshua himself did not want it to go to this point.
"Wouldn\'t three days be too rushed?" asked Simon, frowning. "There\'s still no clue to Mandy."
"There are enough clues," Joshua said coldly. "At least, we have already known which hotel she is perhaps in, haven\'t we?"
"But the hotels said they hadn\'t seen anyone like Mandy." Simon sighed helplessly. He really tried his best in this matter.
"There are two kinds of possibilities," said Joshua, with a twinkle in his eye. "First, we\'re looking in the wrong direction. Mandy doesn\'t stay at those hotels. Second… someone is hiding her whereabouts for her."
"Huh?" Simon was surprised. "Mandy has such power?"
"No, but there are always those who cooperate and shelter her for their own goals. Don\'t you think so?" asked Joshua lightly.
"I think of something!" Simon\'s eyes lit up. "There\'s a hotel that belongs to the Bryant family! And the Bryant family gave the hotel directly to Daniel, Cynthia\'s brother!"
Joshua\'s eyelids twitched. "Why didn\'t you tell us something so important earlier?"
"You also did not prompt me to think in this direction?" said Simon shamefacedly.
"Enough, stop arguing." Hazel was a little helpless."Now that we\'ve confirmed where Mandy is, the next step is to find her. If you go to catch her publicly, you will surely alert her and the people behind her. The safest way is to lure her out. I want to..."
"Don\'t!" Joshua\'s face darkened.
"I haven\'t said anything yet!" Hazel looked at him, speechless.
"I know what you think even if you don\'t tell me." Joshua\'s eyes were deep.
"Can you stop keeping me guessing and showing me the public display of affection," Simon collapsed. "Can\'t you take care of me, who is still single?!"
"Hazel wants to use herself as bait to lure Mandy out," said Joshua with a sigh.
"You\'re crazy!" Simon looks at Hazel in surprise. "Hasn\'t what happened today taught you a lesson? Do you actually want to risk it again? You feel your belly, and ask your baby if it can agree!"
"I didn\'t think that much just now," Hazel said with embarrassment. "I just think if we\'re going to lure Mandy out, we should show her someone she hates very much, and I think I\'m the one she hates the most in her whole life. Who but I can lure her out?"
Mandy had been living in the shadow of Hazel her whole life. In the beginning, Sunny denied Mandy for her private ends but asked Mandy to have plastic surgery by copying Cate\'s face, trying to pass her identity as the daughter of the Denmark family. However, Hazel\'s appearance disrupted their plan. Then Sunny set herself on fire, and Mandy, who couldn\'t be admitted by the Denmark family, lost her birth mother and was even imprisoned. How could Mandy not hate Hazel?
"Me," said Joshua lightly.
Hazel was dumbstruck. "What, what are you talking about?"
"Let me lure her out." He said in a serious tone, "If you are the one who Mandy hates most in the world, then I must be her second most hated. I\'ll lure her out."
