Has Joshua cheated on me?
Hazel felt the thought was ridiculous. She believed Joshua, but his behavior had been too furtive recently, so maybe she should quietly investigate.
"Oh..." She turned and lay down, somewhat disappointed.
He slightly froze, keenly aware of the change in her mood.
"Are you angry?" He hugged her gently from behind.
"... No." She hesitated and whispered, "I'm going to class tomorrow, so I want to go to bed early."
"Okay," he said."I'll drive you there tomorrow."
She was in a much better mood. At least Joshua hadn't forgotten that he had promised to drive her to the tutorial school.
The next day, Hazel woke up early because she remembered the tutorial.
However, they hardly got into the car when Joshua's phone rang.
He answered the phone. Soon, he frowned.
"... Mm, I see..." Joshua whispered. "You handle it first... I'll be there later."
Hazel felt a little disappointed in the heart. Is he so busy right now?
When he hung up, she forced a smile. "If you're busy, go ahead. Driving me is unimportant. I'll just ask the driver to take me."
He paused, and then he pinched her nose, amused. "Hazel, nothing about you is unimportant."
Her heart pounded. Joshua's words reassured her. He regarded everything about her as important as ever. How could he possibly cheat on her?
The doubts in her heart vanished in an instant.
Joshua drove the car very fast.
"You don't want me to walk you in?" he asked in a low voice.
"No, there should be something urgent about the company," she chuckled. "You go to work. I'll just go there myself. Besides, no female students would ask their husbands to accompany them in the school?"
"So I embarrassed my wife?" he said sourly.
"How can you say that?" She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Fine, I won't kid anymore," he whispered."By the way, when will your class be over this afternoon? I'll come to drive you home."
"No need," she said with a smile. "You've been so busy lately. I'll just ask the driver to pick me up."
"Hazel," he said, "do you need me to ask the teacher what time the class will be over?"
She was a little angry and amused. Joshua was really stubborn.
"Five," she replied.
"Good girl," he said, smiled softly, and kissed her on the lips.
She got off and looked back. Joshua's car was still parked as if he were going to watch her enter the school.
Her heart softened. She should have thought too much.
Soon, Hazel found the classroom. She was a student in a small elite class. There were fifteen students in the class. When she got to the classroom, she found a corner, sat down, and took out her book.
"Excuse me, is this seat taken?" Suddenly, Hazel heard an upset voice.
She looked up and then saw a handsome boy stare at her with a shy face.
"No," she answered calmly and then continued reading her book.
"That... My name is Paul Lopez. We're classmates now," he whispered, sitting next to Hazel. "Can I have your name?"
She frowned slightly because she didn't like people who acted as if they were friends when they first met.
Before Hazel could open her mouth, a teacher walked into the classroom, so Hazel took the opportunity to refuse to answer his question and carefully listened to the teacher.
She had started reading the books a few days ago, but after all, she had been away from the campus for more than a year, so she felt a little unfamiliar with the knowledge.
"Hazel, I know a restaurant nearby that sells delicious sushi. Let's try it together." Sitting next to her, Paul began to invite her.
She turned her head around and gave him a surprised look.
This morning, Paul had been trying to talk to her, but she just occasionally answered him. So now he actually invited her to lunch?
He wasn't chasing her, was he? She soon denied this thought. The students that came here were all ready to take part in the postgraduate entrance exams. How could he possibly be in the mood to pick up a girl?
"Sorry, I don't like sushi," Hazel calmly refused.
"Oh," said Paul, somewhat disappointed."Then let's..."
Before he could finish the sentence, a girl with wavy hair rushed into the classroom and shouted, "Paul, let's go eat!"
With that, she directly took him by the hand and walked away, ignoring his unhappy face.
She simply packed her things. The driver had waited outside; she needed to return to the Denmark Residence at noon.
Randy was still very young, so she chose a tutorial class close to the Denmark Residence in order to go back home earlier every day.
But as she reached the school gate, she heard someone behind her calling her name, "Hazel?"
Hazel frowned slightly and stopped. She turned around and saw Paula run after her, breathing heavily.
"That... I want to explain something to you," he said quickly. "That girl is just a friend of mine. Don't misunderstand..."
She was speechless. What did it matter to her whether they were just friends or not?
"You don't like sushi, then we can go eat something else. There are a lot of restaurants around here. Shall we go and see?" he said, blushing.
"I'm sorry," she began coldly. "If you want to chase me, I can tell you the answer right now. I'm married, and I've got a baby. So you don't have to waste your time on me."
"I, I just wanted to invite you to dinner." His cheeks were very flushed as he said, "I didn't mean to do anything else. Don't get me wrong... We can split the bill..."
"No need," she refused peacefully. "My family has come to pick me up."
Suddenly, her pupil shrank as she looked around!
Was it her illusion? Why did she see someone who looked like Ted King just now?!
