"Really?" Hazel was somewhat surprised. "Is she very despicable?"
"...your attention is really strange," Joshua said with a smile. "Don't you think about that if you sign her, it will bring trouble to your newly established Joshua-Hazel Pictures?"
"My supporter is you, what should I be worried about?" Hazel blinked.
"You just said that you have to rely on yourself?" Joshua laughed.
"Of course, I have to rely on myself," Hazel spit out her tongue. "But if someone wants to do sabotage behind our backs, like competing with me, wouldn't it be stupid not to use you as a valuable resource?"
Joshua's eyes flashed a gratifying light, and with Hazel's words, he was relieved. It seemed that this time Hazel had made up her mind.
"Well, just do it, I will fully support you," Joshua said solemnly.
That was the way they decided to set up the company.
Hazel went to the set of the movie again and talked with Vicky Wright.
They settled on the contract terms, Vicky talked politely with Hazel but was relieved that there may be some troubles signing her.
Hazel assumed that Vicky had some stories, but she was only interested in the potential that Vicky had and had little interest in her private life. As for the troubles, if she gave up without trying, she would not have opened an entertainment company.
Hazel asked Jaxson to handle the establishment of the company, but she still had to complete a lot of details personally. She was so busy, but she was excited, and her wrist was almost fully recovered, so Joshua did not stop her.
With the help of Jaxson and the secret support of Joshua, the progress of Joshua-Hazel Pictures went smoothly.
Jaxson sent Hazel home early, Joshua looked at the time, he gave her a strange glance and unexpectedly said, "You are here two hours before you normally come home."
"The company's business is on the right track. I decided to come home earlier." Hazel said happily, "Is dinner ready? I am starving."
"Supper is done, go wash your hands first," Joshua said.
Hazel hurriedly washed her hands. She sat down at the table and said happily, "...The site of the company has been decided. We have rented a whole floor of the office building... The recruitment is almost done, and the staff will arrive after the official opening ceremony..."
Joshua smiled and listened. He knew all these things, but he liked to listen to Hazel tell him about her day and see the excitement in her face. It showed she trusted and depended on him and also valued his opinion.
"When are you going to hold the opening ceremony?" he asked.
"I have looked at the calendar. Next Monday looks good. I plan to hold the opening ceremony that day as well as a simple ribbon-cutting ceremony."
Hazel's eyes were full of expectations. "Can you send a representative of Denmark Group that day? Send her to be a guest or something?"
"Okay, let me arrange it," Joshua said.
"Thank you." Hazel nodded, and with Joshua campaigning for her, at least no one would dare to bully her newly established small company.
"Right, tomorrow night Denmark Group will host a commercial reception. Would you like to come?" Joshua asked.
"Of course!" Hazel quickly nodded. "At the c.o.c.ktail party, there will definitely be a lot of company CEOs rushing to participate. Those people are now resources in my eyes. Right, can you give me some invitations? It's not convenient for me to go now, so I want Mathew Carter to represent the company."
"Okay." Joshua smiled.
After dinner, Hazel hurried back to her room and started to read the book. She had been so busy that she just wanted to relax, but it was hard to avoid yawning.
There was a sound of knocking on the door, Hazel opened the door and looked unexpectedly at Joshua in the doorway. "Do you need me to do anything?"
"It's time to put on the medicine," he said calmly.
The splint on Hazel's hand had long been removed, but now it was necessary to apply ointment.
"Oh." She let Joshua in.
Joshua put the medicine box on the table and gently caught Hazel's hand.
"Itchy..." Hazel couldn't help but giggle.
"...bear with it," Joshua whispered, and his movement became gentler.
Hazel was comfortable with Joshua massaging her wrist, she couldn't help but lean on Joshua's shoulder and yawned.
"Hazel?" After applying for the medicine, he couldn't help but a whisper, "are you tired?"
"Yeah..." Hazel responded tiredly.
Joshua opened his mouth and said, "Then you lay in bed and rest..."
"What do you want?" Hazel whispered, and she couldn't help but yawn again.
"To give you a massage." Joshua said softly, "I have been studying it."
"Really?" Hazel got up and looked at him unexpectedly.
"Try it?"
"Okay."
She promised quickly and then crawled onto the bed.
Joshua put his hand on her shoulder and pressed on it gently.
"Yeah..." Hazel whispered comfortably.
"Hazel!" Joshua's facial expression changed.
"What's wrong?" She turned back and was full of guilt.
"Don't groan like that…" Joshua was weak, and Hazel didn't even know how seductively she g.r.o.a.n.e.d. He didn't think about anything at all, he just wanted to give her a simple massage, but he was excited by her groan.
But Hazel's eyes were so innocent, and she didn't know what she did.
"What happened?" Hazel looked at him wrongly.
"Nothing..." Joshua sighed and gently massaged her.
Hazel turned her head, and she closed her eyes comfortably. Soon, the sound of even breathing came, Joshua smiled. She had fallen asleep, it seemed that she was tired.
He got up, cleaned up the books on the table, and turned off the lights in the room. He came to the bed and gently covered her quilt, and kissed her forehead.
When he went to stand up, he felt a gentle tug at his shirt, he looked down and saw Hazel's fingers holding on to it. Hazel didn't use much strength, but she obviously didn't want him to leave. Joshua smiled, pulled back the quilt, and crawled into bed with her.
He looked at her gently, "I said that you are pulling me and not letting me go, you still don't believe."
Although Hazel had been asleep, it wasn't a deep sleep, and she heard him talking. She opened her eyes confused, the lights in the room had been turned off, and Joshua was in bed with her.
Joshua's body was stiff. He was actually caught by Hazel? He dared not move, but she looked at him in the dark.
Hazel suddenly smiled. She asked with a bit of tiredness and laziness. "Joshua, am I dreaming?"
