BXBX NOVEL Chapter 941 - 229: What Do They Want?
"Hazel, what happened to you today?" Joshua lifted her chin and looked at her deeply.
"Just asking." Hazel made a face and said. If she continued asking questions, Joshua would probably get suspicious. She thought for another moment and said, "Let me fetch you a glass of milk?"
"I don\'t want a drink." Joshua\'s eyes were still sharp, and Hazel was really acting strange.
"But I want a drink." Hazel blinked.
"Go ahead." Joshua released her helplessly.
Hazel went downstairs to the kitchen and poured two glasses of milk. As she was about to go upstairs, she saw Theresa standing at the door of the kitchen, looking at her.
"What\'s wrong?" Hazel asked.
"Sister Hazel, can I ask you for a favor?" Theresa said nervously.
"What is it?."
"Can you...let me be a servant here for a few months?"
"Ah?" Hazel was stunned. "But why?"
"I want to take advantage of these few months to earn enough college tuition," Theresa said.
Hazel was amazed. The Flores family refused to spend a penny on Theresa even when they were economically competent. If Theresa did not perform well enough in high school, they wouldn\'t even let her finish high school. That\'s why Theresa had to start earning tuition for herself.
"I have to ask Nanny Carter and check if there is any shortage of servants here." Hazel frowned, "I can\'t guarantee anything yet. But you can rest assured that even if you can\'t be a servant here, I can help you find other part-time jobs."
"Thank you, thank you so much, Hazel!" Theresa thanked her with joy. She looked at the milk in Hazel\'s hands and said with gratitude, "Let me help deliver the milk for you!"
"Sorry, this is for Joshua." Hazel quickly refused. "I have to do it in person."
Theresa was stunned. Then she smiled awkwardly. "Then go ahead. I won\'t bother you."
After that conversation with Theresa, Hazel took the milk upstairs.
Although her impression of the Flores family was very bad, Theresa was still welcomed by her. Hazel sighed helplessly. She didn\'t really want to help the Flores family at all, but Theresa was really just a poor girl, and Hazel became soft and emotional when it came to her.
Hazel stopped outside the study so she could adjust the glasses in her hand, she heard Joshua talking on the phone. The door was opened just enough for her to hear what he was saying.

"They won\'t go back?" Joshua frowned.
"Correct," Jaxson replied. "I went to find them, but they insisted on staying."
Joshua was speechless. Jaxson could almost sense Joshua\'s frantic mood through the phone.
"What do they want?"
"They said they want to see their son," Jaxson said.
Joshua\'s eyes went a bit darker. He looked out the window and sighed, "They want to see their son, huh? The only thing is that will not happen in their lifetime…"
"Sir, what should I do now?" Jaxson was helpless.
"Help them to settle down first, find people to keep an eye on them, and make sure they stop harassing the orphanage," Joshua said faintly. "As for the rest, let me worry about it. I\'m counting on you, Jaxson."
Hazel stood outside the door in a daze. Although she couldn\'t hear what Jaxson was saying, she could hear what Joshua said clearly.
She was uncertain about the Flores family\'s accusations, she did not want to believe that Joshua was their child. She continued to feel that there must be a misunderstanding.
But she heard Joshua say to settle the Flores family?
It seemed that the person who had been secretly sponsoring the Flores family was none other than Joshua. He must have known his identity long ago. No wonder when she asked Joshua questions, his answer was so ambiguous.
Joshua was deeply resentful toward the Flores family, otherwise, he would not say that they could not see their son in their lifetime. However, he secretly helped them, which indicated that Joshua still cared for them.
Hazel still was unwilling to help the Flores family, but she should help Joshua deal with his shadowy past. Joshua refused to face the Flores family. If she could help him accept their existence, he may be able to heal.
Hazel pushed the door open and walked in with the milk. Joshua smiled and walked over and took the cup. "You were gone so long. I thought you might have had an accident when pouring milk."
Hazel was staring off in a daze.
Joshua\'s look was unconcerned as if the Flores family did not have a bit of influence on him. Did he bury his feelings so deeply?
"Why are you in a daze?" Joshua touched her nose gently.
Hazel snapped back to reality and didn\'t know what to say. She put the cup of milk to her mouth, but she was drinking too fast, and the milk flowed down her lips.
Joshua\'s eyes became dark. As Hazel was about to reach out and rub her lips, he took a step forward and kissed her. He opened her lips with his tongue, her mouth tasted like milk, and Joshua felt almost intoxicated.
Hazel didn\'t have the willpower to push him away. She kissed him back.
When the passionate kisses ended, Hazel looked at him and said. "What are you doing?"
"You have been seducing me all night!" Joshua\'s fingers stroked her lips, and his eyes were lusty. Hazel tried to tease him again and again with practical actions, he was losing all self-control.
"I didn\'t..." Hazel\'s cheeks were red.
"You did." Joshua\'s voice was a bit oppressive. "Hazel, you are responsible for your \'seducing\' behavior tonight. Whether you like it or not, you have to sleep with me tonight!"
