Standing in front of them, Rachel saw that Joshua was just given Hazel a massage, and she was stunned.
"Mom, what are you thinking about?" Hazel said quietly. She probably guessed what Rachel had misunderstood.
"The way you groan is really s.l.u.tty. Do you know that?" Rachel said with a poker face.
Hazel snorted. Her mom was right.
"We set the Three Rules, remember? Why don't you trust the two of us?" Hazel was somewhat helpless. "Even if you don't trust us, you watch us all day, we really have no chance to do anything!"
"...You made your point!" Rachel turned and left.
Joshua whispered, "You aren't chasing her to explain?"
"No." Hazel waved her hand, "That's typical of my mom. She knew that she misunderstood, but she could not admit it. If I really chase her, things could get really ugly. You can just keep going."
Joshua laughed and continued to massage her. "How was the coffee party?"
"Not very good." Hazel sighed heavily, "The only thing I have gained is a lot of love rivals? That's really convenient."
He chuckled, "So, are you going to throw another party?"
"No way." Hazel said, "With such big bait like you, even if I don't look for them, they will take the initiative to find me."
"You are using me as bait? Are you not afraid that I would be seduced and leave?" Joshua was helpless.
"You still want to run?" Hazel turned and used a finger to lift Joshua's chin, "No way. You are stuck with me!"
Joshua chuckled and didn't think much. But Hazel really began to worry about those ladies. In fact, during the coffee party, she was also secretly observing the ladies. Some were average, but some were really outstanding.
As for those who were really outstanding, Hazel felt inferior to them. If they really launched an attack on Joshua, Hazel didn't think she could hold them back for long. However, as long as Joshua was on her side, she really couldn't believe what those women would pull off.

When Joshua began to take Hazel to Denmark Group, the directors had all heard the news. They did not want to give Hazel the opportunity to harm them, so wherever Hazel appeared, they would leave. They avoided her at all costs so that they did not have to admit her identity personally.
Previously, Hazel was only Joshua's secretary. She would sit in and just listen to a meeting, but with her identity being public, Joshua would ask her advice at any time. It was as if she was a real decision-maker.
The directors were becoming more and more anxious. If they continued to hide, Hazel would only gain more power, and it would be difficult for them to shake her position later. No more hiding! They must do something.
At the end of another day, Hazel returned to the president's office and couldn't help but let out a huge yawn.
"Hazel, take this." Joshua poured a cup of coffee for her. He knew that Hazel didn't like the boring meeting at all, but in order to match him, she still stayed in the conference room.
Just as Hazel took the cup of coffee, the phone on the desk rang. Hazel always answered the phone in the president's office. She made no exceptions, she reached out and picked up the phone, "What is the matter?"
"Miss Crowe, a lady wants to see you. She says she is your friend, and she is waiting in the reception room." The secretary said.
"Who?" Hazel frowned.
"She said her name is Sophia Carter." The secretary said.
"Sophia Carter? I don't know... wait!" Hazel raised her eyebrows and was thinking when she heard the name.
"The daughter of Director Carter." Joshua reminded her.
Hazel was speechless. She remembered that she had met Sophia at the coffee party a few days before. She just met her once, for only a moment, and they didn't even really talk. How did they become friends?
"I know her," Hazel said faintly. "I will see her later."
Joshua looked at her with amazement. "Are you acquainted with her?"
"Unacquainted." Hazel shook her head, "I can face such a potential rival. Of course, I will go to meet her! I said I would not give you a chance to run!"
"I was joking..." Joshua was a little bit dumbfounded.
"You know whose daughter she is. Presumably, she has some weight in your heart, right?" Hazel looked at him with a smile.
Joshua was somewhat helpless. He wanted to explain, but Hazel waved her hand and said, "Okay, I will go to play the game. You wait for my good news!"
"...This is for you." Joshua knew that no matter how he put it, Hazel wouldn't believe him, but he still gave her a copy of the information.
Hazel glanced at him with amazement and smiled lightly. She simply flipped the data over and returned it to Joshua, "I understand now."
Soon, Hazel walked into the door of the reception room and quietly opened it. Sophia was sitting on the sofa waiting for her.
Hazel was stunned. Sophia was very beautiful and gentle. She looked like
she would make a good wife. In fact, Hazel was impressed by her the day of the coffee party. She had a double doctor's degree from a famous university, and she was the best among those women. Her family had been cultivating her completely according to the high requirements that Joshua Denmark's wife would require.
Hazel sighed. The women were terrible, and they made a trump card directly. In the face of such an opponent, she was really stressed.
"Hi, Miss Crowe." Sophia politely stood up from the sofa and reached out to her.
Impeccable. Hazel could only think of this word in her heart. She couldn't find any mistake in Sophia. Hazel even thought that if she were a man, she would definitely be attracted to her. However, fortunately, she was a woman who was intuitive and keen to face the enemy.
Hazel somehow felt that under Sophia's almost perfect performance, she was like a rag doll at the mercy of others.
"Miss Carter," Hazel smiled and reached out and shook her hands, "Can I talk to you?"
"...Sure." Hazel's initiative made Sophia somewhat surprised.
"What do you like?" Hazel asked.
Sophia was caught off guard, Hazel's question left her completely puzzled.
