Soon she drew a big heart with her feet on the sand beach.
With a happy smile, she cautiously came to him, "This heart is for you, do you like it?"
He held out his hand in amus.e.m.e.nt and gently touched her head. "I like it very much."
"Joshua," she said, throwing her arms around his neck and tilting her head in curiosity, "Do you want a baby?"
"Why do you ask?" He opened his mouth in surprise.
"Actually," she hesitated and gave a wry smile, "my parents warned me a few days ago that I was too young to get pregnant until a few years later. But we're married now, and I'd like to know your thoughts."
She didn't want to get pregnant until after some time, but she wasn't sure what Joshua thought. She knew that, given Joshua's personality, he would indulge and give in to her.
But this matter was about both of them this time, and she wanted to know what he really thought. If he really wanted to have a child, they could hold a consultation about it.
She didn't want him to give in to her all the time. Now that they were married, she would understand him as well.
Joshua's eyes flashed.
How could he not want to have a baby with Hazel? It was just that it wasn't the right time.
Ted had been preying on them in private. If Hazel did get pregnant with his baby, maybe Ted would directly take their baby away, as he had done that year.
He couldn't and wouldn't get Hazel to go through this kind of suffering, so even if he did want a baby, it wouldn't happen until he solved Ted, who was potential trouble.
"Hazel," Joshua said softly, "Mom and dad are right. You're too young to have a baby in two years."
Hazel was a little disappointed. Joshua said that for her sake. But she still could not resist asking, "When do you want a baby?"
"That's a very tricky question," he chuckled. "How could I not want our child? It's just that it isn't a good time now."
Hazel's eyes flashed. Was it really because Joshua was afraid that she was too young for that?
"Now I..." His voice became hoarse as he looked into her burning eyes. "Want more of the process of having a baby."
Process? Hazel was in a daze for a moment before understanding what Joshua meant. Her cheeks were slightly flushed.
The next moment, Joshua's warm lips kissed hers.
"No more..." At the end of the kiss, she leaned shyly on Joshua's shoulder. She came to the beach at the spur of the moment, so there were still a lot of people on the beach.
Knowing she was shy, he chuckled and whispered in her ear, "Come on, I'll carry you back to the hotel."
Her cheeks were redder. She was hugely shy at the thought that Joshua was taking her back to have s.e.x with her.
"No..." She said coyly.
"Don't want me to carry you?" His mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners. "So, Honey, you prefer me to hug you? Or do… you want to have s.e.x with me here?"
"What? Here?!" She blushed with anxiety. When did she mean that?!
"Use the sky as the quilt and the earth as a bed. So my wife is so interesting." The mischievous light in his eyes increased. "Honey, if you want, I can clear the bench now..."
"Why do you want to clear the bench!" She gnashed her teeth. Did he really want to have s.e.x with her in a place like this... She came up behind him and jumped straight on his back. "Go, go, let's go!"
He carried her on his back with a sigh of regret. The girl was too bashful.
After that, Hazel, who had been dead tired after a day of playing, slept until noon the next day.
When she got up, she complained that Joshua didn't wake her up. Joshua coaxed her for a while before she cooled off.
"Where shall we play in the afternoon?" she asked curiously.
"We'll sail out in the afternoon," he said softly. But there was a flash of mysterious gleam in his eyes.
"Sail the sea?" She rested her cheeks on her hands.
"Yes." He nodded. "Then we can catch some seafood for a barbecue. Also, there are several nearby islands with good scenery, so we can also visit them."
"Okay, fine." She nodded happily in agreement.
After having a light meal, Hazel couldn't wait to go to the sea. When she was abducted by Simon before, she was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery of the sea. Now she certainly didn't want to miss the current opportunity.
Joshua took Hazel to the harbor. There was a luxury cruise ship waiting there.
After boarding the multi-story ship, she was extremely shocked. "You've booked the whole ship?"
"No," he said, his mouth tilting upwards slightly at the corners. "To be exact, this cruise ship belongs to Denmark Group."
The little girl had no idea how rich she was. Very likely, she didn't have the concept and awareness of Denmark Group's owner yet.
Hazel was dumbstruck. Alright, it turned out she owned this cruise ship?
By the time she finally accepted the fact, the ship had left the harbor and was on the sea.
Hazel stood on the deck with the sea breeze blowing. Joshua had already told the waiters to prepare the oven, fishing tackle, and so on.
Suddenly, Hazel saw a familiar figure coming out of the cabin.
"You, you, you... Why are you here?" She gritted her teeth. "Simon, you are too haunted, aren't you?"
Simon's face turned dark. Did Hazel dislike him so much? She looked as if she had seen a ghost, which really hurt his heart.
"I like to watch you being lovey-dovey. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Simon said crossly.
It wasn't he who wanted to come here. If it wasn't for his cooperation with Joshua this time, and he had something to discuss with Joshua, how could he, who wasn't a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t, afford to watch their public display of affection all the time?
"I invited him," Joshua spoke quietly.
"Why?!" Hazel frowned at her beautiful brows.
"If he weren't here, he would definitely make trouble for us," said Joshua with a serious face. "We must take preemptive measures, keeping him near us, rather than wait for him to make trouble so that he can do nothing."
Simon admired him very much. How could Joshua make up such a bad reason? Although it sounded… a little reasonable?
