Chapter 90: You Feel Strange?
“You want to bet?” Hazel took out her mobile phone.
“Do not worry, Miss, we will testify for you.” The store manager said.
“We will also testify!” said the people in the crowd watching.
“You… you wait!” Karla looked at the crowd with anger. Seeing that she would not get any sympathy by staying, she snorted and left the store.
Everyone gradually dispersed, Hazel gratefully said to the store manager, “Thank you.”
“Miss Crowe, you are welcome.” The manager whispered, “Please come with me.”
Hazel was speechless, and the store manager actually recognized her? She followed the manager to the back office and saw that Joshua was waiting there.
The store manager went out and helped them close the door.
“Waffle.” Joshua handed the paper bag in his hand to her.
“When did you come?” Hazel took it with a bit of awkwardness.
“I came in when you were being bullied.” Joshua said, “I assumed you did not want my help, so I asked the manager to help.”
Hazel’s heart was overwhelmed, Joshua remembers the promise he made to her, trying not to disclose their relationship until after she graduates, but he was still able to help in any way he can.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Why would the store manager listen to you?” Hazel was curious.
“This brand of clothing was my mother’s industry.” Joshua looked at her deeply.
“So, can you give me a discount?” Hazel said with joy.
“Yeah.” Joshua nodded.
She took a bit of waffle from the paper bag and squeezed it.
“A reward for you.” Hazel handed the waffle to Joshua. He smiled, and instead of taking the waffle from her hand, he pulled her hand to his mouth.
He said, “This better taste good and be worth me going a few streets away just to get it.” He smiled. “I still want to try.”
“If you want to eat, make it yourself!” Hazel blushed and took back her hand.
“Where are the clothes that you like?” he asked.
Hazel suddenly hesitated. “Joshua, is it really okay if I attend the banquet for Professor Watson?”
“Don’t worry,” Joshua said. “I have already told Professor Watson not to tell others about our relationship. And as, for the students that were invited, they don’t like gossip.”
Hazel felt relieved.
The clerk brought the dress Hazel liked into the room, Hazel made Joshua wait outside while she tried it on. She wanted to surprise him, so after she had it on, she slowly opened the door.
The blue dress was a perfect fit for her and very suitable for her temperament. Joshua looked at her without blinking his eyes, and her eyes flashed slightly.
“Do you think I am beautiful?” Hazel asked with no confidence.
“What do you think?” He smiled.
“I think I am beautiful!” she said with a smile, a little conceit in her eyes.
“Yeah.” Joshua nodded. “I think so too.”
Hazel, who was originally boasting, was somewhat embarrassed.
“There needs to be something on your neck, though.” Joshua frowned, and his fingers were touching over her collarbone.
Hazel’s only thought was that his fingertips seemed to have a weak electrical current. She took a few steps back. “I can wear a silk scarf. I just saw that there was one in the store that is very suitable for this dress.”
“Well, you decide.” Joshua’s eyes were dark and deep, and he walked a few steps toward Hazel. “What are you hiding from?”
“I, I didn’t hide…” Hazel stuttered, somewhat flustered, and took a few more steps back. But she soon realized she could not step back any further, there was a wall.
“Are you worrying that I will touch you?” He lifted his lips and reached the wall with his hand and his fingers slightly lifting her chin.
After being abandoned by Joshua, Hazel’s heart was beating like a drum. She could clearly see her shadow in his eyes, and… the flame that he tried to suppress.
“Joshua, let’s go …” She hurriedly reminded him.
“Don’t worry.” Joshua smiled. “Hazel, are you afraid that I will touch you?”
“I am not afraid…” Hazel’s cheeks were slightly red.
She did have physical contact with the opposite sex, but it was always contacted during a fight, so she did not feel anything special. However, every time Joshua touched her, she felt as if the electricity went through her entire body. She did not know how to deal with it.
“So, you feel strange?” He chuckled and thought that she is really a girl.
“Yes.” Hazel thought for a moment and finally nodded.
“Then I will teach you slowly,” he whispered in her ear. “If you touch me more, you won’t feel strange.”
Looking that his face was getting closer and closer, Hazel’s heartbeat was a bit faster.
What to do? Hazel only could not think of anything; her mind was completely blank.
Suddenly, her phone rang, and Hazel came to her senses. She pushed Joshua away and said, “I need to answer this.”
Joshua looked at her back and frowned slightly. Even though he and Hazel stayed in the same house every day, their relationship had made no progress.
He let Hazel enter Denmark Group, but he was not going just to let her play, it will be her future, so she must be familiar with everything surrounding Denmark Group.
No matter if they were at the company or at Denmark Residence when they got along with each other, he taught her more and more about everything involved in Denmark Group and taught her how to deal with the company’s affairs.
Hazel was very talented in business, but the time he had to teach her was short, and there were many things to learn. Even though she worked very hard and Joshua never complained, she was still a challenging person.
Relationship wise though, isn’t it time for them to take it a step further?
After Hazel finished the phone call, she looked at Joshua with embarrassment.
“My mom called,” Hazel sighed. “She asked me when I would be going home for vacation and New Year’s.”
Joshua raised his eyebrows, in two weeks, it would be the end of the year. Hazel would definitely be going home, and they would be separated.
How many opportunities were there for them to make progress in their relationship?
Looking at his somewhat unpleasant face, Hazel asked a little embarrassedly, “Don’t you have a holiday in the New Year?”
“Do not worry, the company will also have a holiday in the New Year, and we will let you go home for it.” He said.
Hazel was relieved, but Joshua seemed to be unhappy.
After they bought her dress, they went straight home, but Hazel did not expect what was waiting for her to be more training.
