Chapter 120: Teasing Him

Putting down the phone, Joshua ran after Hazel. She realized he would try to get her back, so she struggled to get to the shore as quickly as she could.

But before she could climb up, Joshua reached her, she screamed as he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her back into the hot spring again.

She couldn’t escape, so she turned around quickly and looked into his deep eyes. They were full of flaming desire. Her heart was pounding. It was too late for her to apologize now.

“Girl, how dare you play with fire, eh?” he asked in a deep voice.

“I dare not...” The atmosphere was way too intense, she became a wuss.

Then she said timidly, “Joshua, is it too late for me to admit my mistake?”

“Yes!” He held her in his arms.

“No!” Her cheeks were already glowing as she screamed. “Joshua, I… I am a little dizzy. Don’t do that…”

“Dizzy? Just right, let’s do some exercise together,” he said in a deep voice.

“I mean it! I’m really dizzy,” she said, blushing.

“Hazel!” He gritted his teeth. “Don’t think I don’t know that you are faking it!”

This time, she led him on, but if she didn’t figure out a way, Joshua would definitely have sex with her. She could only pretend to be ill now.

Hazel’s cheeks got a little redder as she insisted, “I am not pretending, I’m really sick. Maybe I’ve been in the hot spring for too long…”

“Hazel Crowe!” Joshua’s face became unsightly. This girl! She had tried to provoke him, but she stopped herself?! He really wanted to have sex with her.

Suddenly he leaned over and kissed her on her lips. The feeling of it implied punishment.

Hazel’s eyes grew wide as she stiffened at the kiss. Though her heart was filled with a strange desire, she dared not to do anything to provoke Joshua anymore.

After the kiss, Joshua let her go and went ashore with an angry expression.

“Where are you going?” she asked quickly.

“To take a shower,” he said in a deep voice. “Or, do you want us to continue?”

“No, go ahead.” She shook her head quickly.

The heartless little girl! Joshua’s face became gloomier, and he left.

She touched her hot cheeks and couldn’t help but laugh shyly.

She was not used to teasing Joshua like that, just thinking about it, she patted her face shyly a few times.

She was ashamed. She had never thought she would do something like that to Joshua. Even so, Joshua didn’t force her, which made her heart warm somehow.

Hazel went to have a quick shower, when she came out with her bathrobe, she saw Joshua waiting for her.

“Don’t you want to continue bathing in the hot spring?” he asked.

“No, I’m very comfortable.” Hazel nodded.

“Let’s go to do something that can make you more comfortable.” A smile curved his lips.

“What, what?” she asked in a fluster.

Joshua took her by the hand and mysteriously said nothing on purpose.

Hazel followed him in fear until Joshua took her to a room with two tables for a massage and two massage therapists waiting.

It turned out that he just took her for a massage, but why did he say to do something that could make her more comfortable...

She looked at Joshua, speechless. “Are you just so fond of teasing me?”

“Isn’t a massage more comfortable?” He chuckled. “Or did you think of something else? Besides, you’re better than me in teasing.”

Listening to Joshua’s unhappy words, Hazel understood what he was mentioning, which embarrassed her.

She didn’t mean it, and she just did it for fun…alright, it was her fault.

They positioned themselves on the massage tables, and the massage therapists began the treatment. The pressure on Hazel’s back was perfect, and she let out a moan.

Joshua’s face changed slightly.

“What’s the matter?” Hazel happened to spot it and asked him.

“Well, I should learn how to massage,” he said seriously.

“Why?” she asked curiously.

“I don’t want anyone else to hear you.” His eyes flickered, and he smiled playfully. “After I learn to do it, you can let me massage you.”

She felt very embarrassed. Even though the two massage therapists kept their professional attitude and pretended they did not hear what Joshua said, she flushed with embarrassment.

She started to cough and quickly changed the subject. “That…why did Vanessa call?”

“I don’t know,” he said.

“Didn’t you answer the phone? Why don’t you know?” She looked at him in disbelief.

“Hazel Crowe,” Joshua looked at her with hidden bitterness, “I was unable to hear her clearly, unlike you in the same situation.”

She flushed with embarrassment again. Why did Joshua always like to make fun of her?

She was, however, somewhat surprised. Compared with what Joshua had done to her, her behavior was, at best, a prank. How could it make him miss what Vanessa said?

She suddenly realized what Joshua had done. She looked at him in astonishment and said, “Did you deliberately let her hear what was happening?”

Joshua raised his brows slightly. Hazel was a little dazed sometimes, but it was always easy for her to figure out the truth if she thought about it.

He did want Vanessa to hear it, hoping that it would stop her from pestering him.

“Hazel, it was clear you were trying to tease me.” He chuckled.

She was tongue-tied. It was true that Joshua didn’t make her do it, but he clearly let Vanessa hear it on purpose. Hazel became angry, grunted, and looked away.

“Hazel,” He said her name lightly.

She didn’t move, pretending that she didn’t hear him.

“You can rest assured that I will not let her bother you again,” he whispered.

There was a warmth in Hazel’s heart, knowing that Joshua had done it mostly for her. Once she realized why he had done it, she calmed down.

“Mm, I believe you,” she whispered, turning to him.

The massage made her very comfortable, and she fell asleep quickly.

When she woke up, she felt refreshed and truly enjoyed her day with Joshua.

When they arrived at Denmark Residence, a servant came to them. “Mr. Denmark, Miss Young came to see you today. We told her you weren’t at home, but she didn’t believe it and made a scene.”

Joshua’s eyes became a little aggravated. “I see. If she comes back later, you just need to ask her to get out.”

The servant agreed quickly.

Hazel’s heart sank slightly. Vanessa’s entanglement with Joshua had become extremely dreadful.

Even though she believed Joshua could handle it, she had a feeling that Vanessa would not give up easily and she would definitely find a way to destroy them.
