Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Madeline’s face was livid about his words. She used to be engaged to Simon, but he didn’t like her at all and forced her family to back out. Later her father asked her to marry Master Billy.

Of course, she didn’t want to, so she fought against her father, and it took a long time before her parents changed their minds. However, she never thought that this was directly used by Simon to attack her. She could not refute it at all!

“Does Miss Carter mean… we should not stop Mr. King when he is about to jump off a cliff, but applaud him and watch him jump?” Joshua said lightly. “Mr. King, you really should take a good look at the people who are following you. Some people who try to make you happy may not really be kind to you.”

Madeline’s face became panic-stricken instantly. Simon had just left her speechless, but Joshua’s words were more powerful and made Ted question her real intentions.

“I, I don’t mean that…” Madeline spoke with a wounded expression.

“Enough.” Ted waved his hand impatiently. There was no longer any need for the conversation to proceed.

Joshua and Simon won the second round. The most annoying thing to Ted was that he was actually lectured by Hazel, and he couldn’t retort.

“Mr. King, Hazel, and I are very tired as we have jet lag. We need a rest,” Joshua spoke quietly.

“I’ll go to my mother first.” There was a flash of sadness in Simon’s eyes. His heart was filled with bitterness at the thought of the woman who had suffered so much.

Ted was more or less reluctant to let them go.

“Dinner’s almost ready. Let’s have dinner together first,” Ted said in a deep tone. He looked deeply at Simon. “I sent for my mother. She’ll be here soon.”

Since Ted said that, the three of them had to agree.

Ted gave Madeline a cold look. He would give Madeline the last chance. If this woman would still lose to Hazel, he would have to abandon the pawn.

“Mrs. Denmark, you and Joshua really have a wonderful relationship.” Madeline naturally felt the threat in Ted’s eyes. She hurried to speak with a smile. “I think Mrs. Denmark must be good at housekeeping and cooking and have served Joshua well. That’s why you have such a good relationship, isn’t it?”

Hazel’s eyes narrowed. Naturally, she could hear the hidden meaning in Madeline’s words. The next moment, Hazel smiled. “Good at housekeeping and cooking. Joshua, I think that’s a pretty good way to compliment you.”

A gentle smile played on Joshua’s lips. “Thank you for your compliment, madam.”

He was so protective of Hazel, which made Madeline extremely jealous! However, she was also secretly happy. Was Hazel ready to behave more badly? What kind of parent would like his son to wait on his daughter-in-law? Ted’s impression of Hazel couldn’t be worse now!

But Madeline was wrong. Hazel wasn’t ready to behave more badly. It was just that they knew that in Ted’s heart of hearts, he had already had an extremely bad impression of Hazel, so whatever Hazel did, her behavior was all wrong in his eyes.

Even if Hazel tried to play up to Ted, it was likely that Ted would accuse Hazel of being hypocritical. So, Hazel and Joshua thought Hazel might as well show her the most direct side instead of trying to play up to Ted.

But their words did make Ted’s face turn cold.

“What are you good at, Miss Crowe?” Ted asked in a deep tone.

“Beauty?” Hazel opened her mouth frankly.

She was good at many things, but even if she told Ted, Ted wouldn’t think highly of her.

In an instant, Ted’s face darkened, and he said coolly, “If you want to be an eligible daughter-in-law of the King family, you must learn the skills of cooking, massage, financial management, and so on so that you can take good care of your husband! Miss Crowe, do you understand?”

“Yes.” Hazel nodded, looking calm.

“So, do you think you are capable of them yourself now, Miss Crowe?” Madeline asked hastily. In order to attract Simon, she learned all these skills related to serving people in order to make him couldn’t live without her. But god knew Simon didn’t even give her a chance to get close to him. Now she had a second choice, and of course, she wouldn’t give up easily!

“Why should I be capable of these?” Hazel looked blank.

“Joshua is the son of Uncle King!” Madeline looked anxious, but she was triumphant in her heart.

“Miss Carter, my last name is Denmark,” Joshua said indifferently. “The rules of the King family do not apply to my wife.”

His words let the air in the whole sitting room become cold immediately.

Ted glared at him. “Joshua!”

“Mr. King,” Joshua said lightly, “I’m still saying the same thing. When you do accept Hazel, we’ll talk about what my wife should be capable of.”

“Joshua, don’t be angry,” Madeline said, pretending to be sensible. “Uncle King hopes there’s someone who can take good care of you…”

Ted gave a cold snort. Apparently, he agreed.

“Mr. King, please look at my hands and my feet. Is there anything special about them?” Joshua spoke quietly.

When Ted heard this, he thought Joshua was suffering from some certain sickness. He looked at him anxiously, but he could not find anything wrong.

“Nothing special, it seems…” Ted opened his mouth in a puzzle.

“Yes, since I have hands and feet, and I am not a disabled person, why do I need someone to take care of me?” Joshua spoke sarcastically.

Ted’s face went cold instantly. Joshua actually played a trick on him! Neither of his two sons was a relief to him!

“Whether you need someone to take care of you or not and whether she is good at housekeeping are completely irrelevant!” Ted was pissed off. He opened his mouth unhappily, “Since she’s married to you, even if she is capable of nothing, she must learn! Now, Hazel Crowe, you go to the kitchen and cook something!”

“You ask me to cook?” Hazel looked at Ted in shock.

Joshua was somewhat surprised, but the next moment he wore a sympathetic face.

Simon was enjoying watching the drama while drinking coffee. Hearing the request, he couldn’t help spitting out the coffee.

He remembered his previous tragic memories somehow.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

He overheard Joshua mention that Hazel was a disaster for kitchens, but Simon didn’t believe it at first and insisted Hazel cook him a patient meal.

He thought Joshua would refuse, but they both agreed, with the only condition that he must finish the food.

Then Simon ate the worst black cuisine in his life.
