Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Their expressions both changed, and they quickly ran to the tree.

“Mike, follow me to get the ladder! Hazel, you stay here to occupy Lenny!” Sharon quickly grabbed an older child and hurried to the warehouse with him.

“Sister Hazel, I’m scared, I’m going to fall…” Lenny held the branch, crying tearfully, looking very pitiful.

“Don’t be afraid, Lenny. Hold on tight. Don’t let go,” Hazel said nervously. “Mother Sharon went to get a ladder, and we’ll get you down soon…”

Lenny nodded, crying.

A bee began buzzing around Lenny and landed on his nose. Lenny turned pale and slapped at it.

“Lenny, don’t move…”

But it was too late, Lenny started screaming as he fell from the tree.

“Lenny!” Hazel’s face changed, and she swiftly put her arms out.

She felt her arms become very heavy as Lenny fell firmly into her arms. But the next moment, a crisp click sounded, and there was excruciating pain in her wrist.

“Hazel!”

Joshua’s frantic voice came from behind. Hazel’s hands loosened, and Lenny slid out of her arms.

Joshua came up to her and looked at her pale face and the cold sweat on the forehead as he asked in a deep voice, “Are you hurt?”

“Leave me alone, and check the child…” Hazel said, enduring the pain.

Jennie ran to them, she happened to see the entire incident. Hazel risked her life to catch Lenny; she looked at Hazel as if she was more interested than she used to be.

“Lenny’s ok, I think he’s just scared stiff,” Jennie simply checked Lenny, she looked at Hazel with a complex look, “What about you?”

“I seem to have a dislocated wrist…” Hazel looked at Joshua, her wrist swelling high.

Joshua’s face deepened, and he quickly lifted up Hazel by the waist. “Auntie Jennie, I’ll take her to the hospital.”

“Joshua, I can walk by myself…”

Joshua, his face darkened, silently carried Hazel into the car.

They arrived at the hospital, and Joshua was so nervous that he asked the doctor to check her from head to toe.

After the doctor helped Hazel put the joint back into place, he used a splint to hold her wrist in place and then explained the matter that needed attention, and Joshua kept all of them in mind.

After the doctor left, Joshua had a deep expression, sitting somberly in front of Hazel’s hospital bed. “Does it hurt?”

“I’ve already had a painkiller, so it doesn’t hurt,” Hazel said, looking timidly at him. “But now you scared me, it seems to hurt again…”

“You know about pain?” Joshua’s face was a little darker.

“I’m hurt, but you’re scolding me,” Hazel muttered. She was utterly aggrieved deep in her heart. “Uncle, you’re too bad!”

“Huh?” Joshua glared at her. “What did you call me?”

Hazel argued angrily, “You’re as fierce as an elder…”

Joshua bent down in anger and bit her hard on the lip. “Do you know how dangerous that was? How could you hurt yourself without me around for only a moment?”

Jennie came and was standing out of the room with Sharon. She was trying to knock on the door, but she couldn’t help stopping when she heard their conversation.

“Wasn’t it a special situation?” Hazel said rudely, “Lenny fell, so I caught him without thinking. How could you blame me for that? Did you want me to do nothing?”

“I don’t blame you.” Joshua’s eyes darkened a little.

“I blame myself,” he whispered.

“Oh?” She was confused and recognized the deep remorse in his words, so she said quickly, “Joshua, there’s nothing to do with…”

“How could it have nothing to do with me? If I had been by your side, you would not have been in such danger,” he said with hidden bitterness. “If I could, I would tie you to my belt and take you with me everywhere!”

“I am an adult, how could you do that to me?” She blushed instantly.

Jennie raised her hand and knocked at the door as it seemed they began to talk in a strange direction.

Joshua opened the door of the ward, letting Jennie and Sharon enter the ward. Jennie put her hot lunch box on the table and “You haven’t eaten yet, have you? When I finished the cooking, Sharon and I brought you food.”

“Thank you, Auntie Jennie!” Hazel said happily. Jennie was able to deliver her lunch, which really surprised her. Still, she asked with some concern, “What about Lenny? Is he all right?”

“Don’t worry, Hazel, Lenny didn’t get hurt, and we’ve taught him a lesson,” Sharon said. “He wanted to come here to apologize to you, but we didn’t agree because he was too naughty.”

“I’m glad he’s not hurt.” Hazel heaved a sigh of relief.

“How are you, Hazel?” Sharon asked with concern.

Not only did Hazel solve her problem as Jennie often played matchmaker for her, she also saved the kid from the orphanage. She liked Hazel very much now.

“Fortunately, you don’t have a fracture, but you still have to have a rest for a period,” said Joshua, frowning.

“You have to take care of Hazel,” Sharon said. “After all, it’s not easy for you to have a girlfriend.”

Hazel coughed because of awkwardness.

“Even Joshua has a girlfriend, but you’re the only one single.” Jennie looked at Sharon with a sort of disapproval in her eyes.

“Auntie Jennie, why do you mention this again? I tell you, I’m celibatarian,” Sharon put her hands over her forehead with a headache. “Besides, we’re here to visit Hazel today, not to talk about my private affairs.”

“Thank you for Lenny, Hazel,” Jennie says, taking her eyes off. She poured the soup from her lunch box into a small bowl and handed it to Hazel. “Have a taste of fish soup…”

Before she had finished, Joshua had taken the fish soup first.

Jennie was startled, and Hazel said more angrily, “Joshua Denmark, how can you make my soup from Hazel?”

Sitting peacefully beside her bed, Joshua scooped up a spoonful of fish soup and gently put it to Hazel’s lips. “Let me feed you.”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

With a thin blush on her face, Hazel stretched out her unhurt hand. “Let me do it…”

“Be good,” said Joshua quietly, “or do you want me to feed you another way?”

Other ways… What could that be? Hazel’s cheeks turned even redder.

“Come on, Auntie Jennie,” Sharon said quietly as she took Jennie’s arm. “We don’t want to get in the way.”

Jennie nodded and followed Sharon as she was ready to leave.

Hazel quickly said, “Joshua, see them off.”
