Chapter 821 - 109: Big Boss

"No, your intentions are honorable, but it is not right." Joshua calmly interrupted. "Besides, I don't want you to come into contact with this kind of thing."         

Hazel was stunned, but her mother was a policewoman, so it would be better to get involved in such an occasion.         

"Okay..." Hazel thought for a moment and said, "Joshua, if you can't deal with it, just call the police."

Joshua was somewhat stunned, but he smiled softly. Hazel was worried about him, and she no longer cared about disclosing their relationship to her parents. However, her parents seemed to be very nice, and Joshua did not want to leave them with a bad impression, so he had to handle this situation carefully.

"Believe me, Hazel," Joshua said with a smile. "I'll take care of it soon."         

"Okay." Hazel nodded.         

Joshua went into the living room and shut the door behind him.       

Hank was there with the bodyguards watching him so he could not escape.

Joshua let the thugs go, but he took Hank back because he wanted to punish the guy who insulted Hazel. Hank began to tremble with fear when he saw Joshua. He bluffed out loud and shouted, "I, I tell you! Brother Lee will be looking for our boss soon! You should let me go before it's too late!"

Hank was in a panic, he was just a small-time character in the scheme of things. He already paid a lot of money to hire "Brother Lee," and the "Big Boss" had never been in touch with him and never would care about such a small character.   

Joshua ignored Hank. He sat down on the sofa leisurely and folded his legs.         

The doorbell rang, and the bodyguards opened the door.

Hank looked back, his face suddenly full of unbelievable joy, "Boss, here you are! That's the man..."

Before he had finished speaking, his smile froze. He saw clearly that the boss had come with "Brother Lee" tied up. The two men walked over to Joshua, and the Boss kicked Brother Lee in the legs causing him to fall onto his knees.

The Big Boss angrily said, "Shit! How dare you seek trouble with Master Joshua? Now apologize to Master Joshua!"     

"Master Joshua, I'm sorry, I'm wrong!" Brother Lee said in a flurry, "But I was also deceived. It's him, Hank. Hank gave me some money and told me to come after you!"         

Hank's face was already pale and horrified. Even his "Boss" respected Joshua in such a manner, now he knew he had offended someone who should not have been offended.

"Well, no need for such a polite apology." Joshua waved his hand indifferently. "Let's talk about what to do about it."       

"What do you mean, Master Joshua?" Asked the Boss with a smile.         

Joshua looked at Hank. "Just as he said, get some guys to play with him. Remember, return him in one piece."         

Hank's legs went weak, and he fell to the ground. He shivered and said, "I'm wrong. Please let me go..."

Joshua looked at him indifferently. His deep eyes were cold and unemotional. "That's your idea, and I'm just going to do it for you."     

The best way to punish such a man was to let him reap what he had sewed. Joshua wouldn't have been so cruel to Hank if he hadn't insulted Hazel.

"Master Joshua, you can rest assured. I'll give him a good time!" The Boss promised and made a gesture. The two little gangsters behind him carried Hank out of the room.     

"So, is there anything else?" The Boss looked at Joshua nervously.         

"If you do something for me, I'll forget what your men did today," Joshua said.

"Sure." The boss hastily agreed.         

"This family owed money to another family." Joshua handed him Matt's information.

"You can think of a way to get them to pay it back as soon as possible and teach them a lesson along the way. I know you are capable of handling this."

"Of course! Consider it done, Master Joshua!"

Hazel waited in the bedroom, she tried to eavesdrop by putting her head on the wall, but the sound insulation in the presidential suite was so good that she couldn't hear it clearly.       

There was a phone ringing, Hazel looked around surprised, it was Joshua's cell phone ringing. He had walked out and left it lying on the table.

Hazel was debating if she should answer it, the phone kept ringing, so she walked over and picked up the phone.

It was a number Hazel did not recognize, she answered and asked, "Hello, are you looking for Joshua? He's not here right now."                   

Whoever was on the other end hung up when they heard Hazel's voice.

Did the caller have the wrong number?         

Hazel was looking at the phone, frowning when Joshua quietly walked in.         

"Have you handled it?" Hazel asked with a smile.

"Um." Joshua nodded.         

"Your cell phone just rang." Hazel handed the phone to him. "After I answered it up, the person on the other end suddenly hung up."         

Joshua took the phone and raised his eyebrows when he looked at the strange number. The number... belonged to Vanessa Young.

Why was she calling? She must have guessed that it was Hazel answering the phone and hung up.

Joshua was deep in thought when Hazel said, "Do you want to call back and see what's going on?"

"No need." Joshua smiled faintly. "It doesn't seem to matter since the other person hung up, if it were important, they would have said something."         

"Oh, okay," Hazel said and looked at Joshua with her head tilted to the side.

"What's wrong?" He asked.         

"When are you going back?" Hazel asked.

"Whenever you are going back." He said.     

Hazel suddenly felt pressure, "No way..."         

"Hazel, I just want to be with you," Joshua said gently. "Don't think too much, and don't be stressed. I can handle anything regarding the company from here."

Hazel breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly she asked, "Do you always go out with bodyguards like you do today?"         

Joshua lowered his eyes so Hazel would not see the look of insincerity in them.

These guys were not there to protect him but to secretly to protect Hazel.   

However, he did not plan to tell Hazel that because he knew it would only stress her.
