Chasing The Fierce Heiress

“Go after her!” She could hear the reporters shouting behind her.

Hazel ran a few laps around the campus and successfully lost the reporters.

It’s just… Hazel looked at herself in fluster.

She ran out so fast that she did not grab her phone, ID, wallet, or anything. All she had on was a pair of pajamas.

The weather was getting colder, and she would not be able to handle it in just a pair of pajamas for long. Hazel rubbed her arms. She really wanted to go back.

Those reporters just wanted to interview her but not eat her, right?

A car came, and Hazel hurriedly hid in the nearby woods.

The two reporters who lost Hazel were very disappointed. Suddenly, they saw a car coming and hurriedly stopped the car.

“President Watson, please allow us to interview you!” Two reporters slammed the car window.

The car stopped, and President Watson got out.

Astounded, Hazel couldn’t help but hide behind the tree.

“Excuse me, there is a student named Hazel in your university. She participated in the surrogacy competition held by Joshua Denmark. What do you think of your students participating in this kind of activity?” One of the reporters hurriedly asked.

President Watson put on a poker face hearing that.

Another reporter was really straightforward, “This Hazel is said to have been raised by wealthy people. She’s always in and out of luxury cars. She also bribed the staff of the surrogacy competition event and won the qualification of surrogate mother to the children of Denmark Family with unfair play. Someone also said that she had ruined the reputation of a student because of a personal grievance. How is your university planning to deal with such a student?”

Hazel totally lost her mind.

No wonder Ariel asked her to leave immediately. It turned out the rumors about her online had developed into horrible lies.

In the face of the reporters who kept on asking questions, President Watson finally said, “The university is the place to study. We will not prevent students from participating in some positive activities. But for some students who are unwilling to study or those who have misconduct, will face serious consequences.”

“Serious consequences refers to… being expelled?” The reporter asked sharply.

“As for specific results, our university will contact the media as soon as possible after we have been in contact with the student in question. Please make way, thanks.” President Watson said.

Although he did not explain the details, he clearly indicated that Quantum University was about to expel Hazel. The reporters were pleased and gave way to President Watson’s car.

When everyone was gone, Hazel was still hiding behind the tree, stunned.

The temperature was getting lower and lower, just not as cold as her heart.

How could this happen?

She was about to be expelled before graduation. When this news hit the air, her parents would know sooner or later. How should she face her parents?

Since the university intended to expel her, she could only avoid contacting them for so long.

Hazel bit her teeth and rubbed her frozen fingers.

Joshua also received the news.

Although information can explode and be exaggerated on social media very quickly in this era, Joshua felt there was something wrong with the whole situation.

When the message that Hazel had been chosen as the surrogate mother was disclosed, Hazel’s photos in a luxury car were immediately scattered online. Suddenly, Hazel became a “whore”, “girl who got compensated for dating,” etc.

All kinds of negative information about Hazel, including the old slandering posts about her were dug out on Quantum University’s campus forum. Everyone suddenly believed that Hazel seduced the staff of Denmark Group and won the selection.

The whole thing began to get out of control. Besides, to defame Hazel, people began questioning Denmark Group online and asking Denmark Group for an explanation.

Joshua himself did not have a Twitter account. Most people left messages under the official Twitter account of Denmark Group as if they were his parents. They said they were worried that Hazel would cheat Joshua, and they did not agree to their relationship.

The intensity of this incident had happened too fast as if there was someone invisible behind it.

“Mr. President.” Jaxson entered the office and said, “The press department has calmed the media.”

“Well done. Did you find out who was behind this?”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“It was… Janet.” After a little hesitation, Jaxson said, “She contacted the media and public relations team. Her schoolmate provided those photos of Miss Crowe.”

“Janet is not capable enough to do this on her own.” Joshua frowned, “Keep checking. There must be someone helping her.”

Jaxson promised to continue searching. After a while, he continued, “And Miss Crowe has disappeared.”

“Didn’t you arrange for someone to pick her up?” Joshua asked in surprise.

“Those reporters got there first before my man. It’s said that Miss Crowe jumped down from the balcony of the second floor and disappeared.” Jaxson said.

Joshua suddenly stood up, “I’ll go find her.”

It’s so late at night. It could be very dangerous for Hazel to be outside alone. Filled with worry, Joshua went downstairs and drove to Quantum University.

Most of the reporters who had been staying at Quantum University left when they could not find Hazel. But there were still a few reporters who stayed at the gate to the girls’ dormitories, and another group of reporters began searching for her near Quantum University.

Joshua called Hazel’s phone, but it was Ariel who answered, and he just knew that Hazel probably ran out of her room without taking anything of importance.

Where would she be? Joshua thought for a while and finally decided to look for her on the campus.

If Hazel did not have anything with her, she would not make it far. Besides, the most dangerous place would usually be the safest place.

After searching for a long time and finding any sign of her, Joshua became more and more uneasy.

“Hazel!”

The sound of a restless roar burst out in the quiet campus.

Joshua frowned. It was Isaac’s voice.

Isaac came here too? Joshua was extremely uncomfortable.

Judging by the sound of his voice, Isaac was not near him.

Suddenly, Joshua saw the shadow of a person in the woods next to him.

With a slight astonishment, he hurried into the woods.

“Hazel!” Joshua called out with a low voice.

The person who was ready to dodge suddenly stopped.

Joshua hurried forward and relaxed.

The person in front of him was none other than Hazel, and she was shivering in the cold.

Joshua took off his coat and put it on her.

The warm temperature of his coat and the reassuring breath of Joshua almost lead her to burst into tears.
