Chapter 29: Follow Me

“Do you still feel cold?” Joshua asked, turning down the temperature inside the room.

Hazel was startled when she heard his voice, she jumped like she had been struck by lightning.

She quickly turned her head around and saw Joshua, who was sitting behind her, drying her hair. He only wore a bathrobe, and it appeared that he wore nothing underneath it.

Hazel was shocked. She looked down at herself and noticed she was only wearing a bathrobe as well.

"You… you…" she moved over hastily, looking at him with horror. "What have you done to me? Why am I here?"

"You don't remember anything?" Joshua was slightly surprised.

"Remember what?" Hazel cautiously picked up the pillow by her hand and hit him angrily. "You are a beast! Bastard! Scum!"

She was weak and had very little strength, so Joshua barely fit it when she hit him.

He smiled and took the pillow from her, but when he saw Hazel’s victimized eyes and the tears that fell, his heart immediately sank.

"Even if you don't remember, I can assure you that I have done nothing wrong. Does it feel like there is something wrong physically?” Joshua whispered.

Hazel was dumbstruck.

In addition to feeling cold, she was a little bit sore but not because something had happened. It felt more so like she had a bubble bath or long shower, and there was no extraordinary sensation in her secretive area…

Hazel put down her legs on the floor and tried to stand up, but she almost fell over.

Joshua quickly reached out and grabbed her, "Slow down!"

Hazel realized that Joshua did not do anything to her. Her weakness was because of something else and her being too tired.

Will he just let her go?

Hazel looked at Joshua with disbelief.

Through the bathrobe, Hazel's eyes swept over his strong chest. She felt a little shy and looked away. "Why are you not wearing clothes?"

"You were the only one that forced me to take them off," Joshua said innocently.

After he took her to the bathroom, Hazel did not let go of him no matter what he said. Not only did she take off his clothes, but she kept kissing him. Her enthusiasm almost made him unable to control himself.

Hazel was completely flabbergasted. Her eyes widened as she tried to argue, but suddenly a few fragments of memories flashed through her mind.

Did it really happen?

Hazel was a little confused, how could she do those things?

She remembered that she was strongly hanging on to Joshua's body and took off his clothes. Although it was only a few fragments, it was enough to make her look up in embarrassment.

What's more, the little red spots on Joshua's body were clearly the "marks" she left behind.

Watching her cheeks get red, Joshua guessed at what she was thinking.

"Drink some ginger tea first," Joshua whispered and handed her a teacup. "You took a cold shower for so long. Be careful, and it will be easy to catch a cold."

Hazel took the tea and drank it, but she had doubts rising in her. She remembered that she was eating with Ariel and then planned to go to the bathroom. But then what happened?

“Was I drugged?” Hazel looked at Joshua with surprise.

"..." Looking at her skeptical eyes, Joshua was somewhat speechless. "Do you suspect me?"

Hazel lowered her head. When she had met Joshua, the effectiveness of the drug had already begun to attack her. It wasn’t possible that Joshua did this.

"Who did it?" Hazel whispered and then frowned, "Kyla? How did she do it?"

"I asked Jaxson to check. He said that the drug was not in the wine but on the inside of the glass." Joshua explained, "But it is coincidental, Kyla also drank from your glass of wine.”

"She also drank it?" Hazel couldn’t help but say, " Evil is rewarded with evil. Where is my cell phone?"

Joshua handed the phone to her. "Your battery drained, I charged it for you…” Hazel didn’t wait for him to finish his sentence and anxiously grabbed the phone, pressed the power button.

She had just disappeared; Ariel and Summer will be worried.

She should at least tell them that she is safe.

***

Ariel and Summer searched the entire bathroom and didn’t find Hazel. They could not find her through the phone either.

"Derek! Where are you hiding, Hazel?" Ariel said angrily. "I should have known that you are unkind bitches. What about the apology? Clearly, you just wanted this opportunity to take revenge on Hazel, didn’t you?"

"I really don't know..." Derek had an innocent, anxious look. "How could I harm Hazel? We came here to apologize!"

"You won’t do it, but Kyla?" Summer asked angrily.

"Don't fight," Ivan frowned. "Let's go back and ask Kyla, maybe there will be a clue."

They returned to the room, but there was no one inside. They all looked at each other and realized there was more to the story.

"Derek, what else do you have to say?" Summer questioned angrily.

"Derek, call her and find out where she is!" Ivan said, distressed.

Derek rushed to take out his phone and dialed Kyla's number. But his call was sent directly to voicemail.

He quickly dialed her number several more times, but each time it was sent to voicemail.

"Forget about it, let's call the police," Ariel said with concern.

"I will try one more time!" Derek said in a panic. He dialed the number again. This time someone answered the phone.

"Kyla, where are you?" he asked.

He heard a man and woman groaning, the sound of a physical collision.

“Your boyfriend doesn’t give up easily. He won’t stop calling,” a man on the phone said.

"So, then we will let him listen. How are we going to serve his girlfriend? Brother, take out your dick and let her boyfriend listen to how this bitch groans..."

Derek’s face went red and angry. He took his mobile phone and smashed it at the wall as hard as he could!
