Chapter 365: Does It Look Strange To You?

The room was large, with a piano in the corner. Hazel presumed it was for her mother, Cate, and Aunt Sunny to practice the piano. Hazel looked around quickly and then went to the balcony.

The balcony of the piano room was not too far from Sunny's room. Hazel jumped across and landed on her feet. The balcony door to her room was not locked. Hazel opened the door slightly and quickly squeezed in.

On a table, there was a single photo of Cate, Hazel smiled. She opened a drawer and saw a notebook, she rushed to open it but then could not believe her eyes, the notebook was empty.

Hazel quickly flipped through the notebook again and again. Except for the name of the first page, proving that it belonged to her mother, there was nothing in it. She felt bewildered.

She knew she could not stay in the room for too long, so she went back to the balcony and exited through the piano room. When she returned to the living room, she saw that Susan was still contemplating her statement.

“What kept you so long?” Susan was obviously impatient. “Forget it, you said my mom really doesn’t want to see me achieve anything?”

Hazel’s lips were twitching, and Susan was still struggling with her thoughts when Hazel posed a question.

“What are the achievements you are speaking of, the entertainment circle? I don’t think we even need to say out loud what a mess the entertainment industry is. Ask yourself, do you really like being an actress, or do you like the feeling of being in the spotlight?”

Susan was angry and glared at Hazel. It was obvious that Hazel’s words were hurting her.

"My words are harsh," Hazel said. "That's because I don't need to try and please you, so I will tell the truth. It is your choice to accept it or not."

"Go away!" Susan was even more unhappy.

Hazel shrugged helplessly and realized she would not be able to get along with her. Although Hazel did not want to put more strain on their relationship Susan needed to hear what she had said. Hazel decided not to say anything else because she was afraid that Susan would have her more.

As Hazel walked out the door of Joseph’s house, she saw a car parked out front. The door opened, and Joshua got out of the car.

"Joshua?" Hazel asked strangely, "Why are you here?"

"I heard that you came to Joseph's house and came over to pick you up," Joshua helped her open the door. "Get in the car."

Hazel got in the car and stared at Joshua, “I assume you were worried that Susan would do something to me, so you came here?”

"Don't get too close to her in the future," Joshua' frowned. "The grudge between you and Susan will not be written off because of a common enemy."

"I know." Hazel smiled slightly, she knew what he said was true. If Susan had not thought that she might be useful, Susan would be happy to watch her and Mandy fight to the death.

"Right," Hazel took out a few blank sheets from her pocket. "Look at these blank sheets. Does it look strange to you?”

Joshua looked over and saw some blank sheets in her hand. He asked with a sound of doubt, “What?”

"Like on TV," Hazel’s eyes flashed in the light of anticipation. "Although it looks like blank paper, maybe what is on it can only be seen when it is exposed to water, high temperature, or a special solution.”

"...you think too much," Joshua said smiling. "If I guess correctly, these sheets have been pulled out of a diary. Who would do that when writing a diary? Besides, if someone did write something, the paper would have scratch marks.”

Hazel was a bit depressed. She had stolen a few pages from Cate’s diary. She did not want to give up but worried that it would be discovered if she took the whole book. She never thought that it was really blank paper.

Joshua put away the sheets of paper. "I will look for someone to test it and see if there is anything in it."

"Okay." Hazel nodded in the loss, but in fact, did not have any hope.

"This is from Mother's diary?" asked Joshua.

"Yes." Hazel did not want to hide anything from him, so she told him what happened in the house.

“Don’t do anything that dangerous ever again.” Joshua frowned.

"How was it dangerous?" Hazel is puzzled.

“Really?” He looked at her unpleasantly.

"Ha!" Hazel couldn't help but laugh out. It turned out that Joshua actually said that. She chuckled. "Okay, I will definitely be safer in the future and not do something so dangerous.”

"Okay." Joshua's facial expression became softer. He sighed, "Hazel, I will be going to Country F tomorrow. Will you go with me?"

"Ah? Why go to Country F?" Hazel asked curiously. "Although I have never been there, I really want to go explore."

"I have some business to take care of. I will be gone for a week." Joshua explained.

"You are worried about my safety, so you want to take me with you?" Hazel was stunned.

Joshua nodded. But he did not deny, "Hazel, if I am not here, a lot of things could happen in a week. I may not be able to handle it if I am away, so I hope you will go with me."

Hazel thought for a while. If she stayed here, she would face Mandy and Fred alone. Although she was not afraid of what they would do, she would choose it if she had the choice not to interact with them.

"But I didn’t have a visa yet..." Hazel said with concern.

"I have already prepared the documents for you." He whispered.

Since Joshua had taken the initiative, Hazel had no reason to refuse. She nodded. "Well, I will go with you."

When they arrived at Denmark Residence, their luggage was already packed. Hazel went to bed since they had to be at the airport early. The plane took off, and before she knew it, Hazel was asleep.

She woke up and was already in Country F, in what appeared to be the presidential suite. Hazel stretched and called out, “Joshua?”

Nobody replied. She panicked a little and turned her head, looking around

Joshua had left a note, "Hazel, I need to go deal with some things, but I will be back around 7 o'clock this evening. After you wake up, you can tell the bodyguards what you need, and they will help."

Hazel looked up at the clock, and now it was only 5:30 in the afternoon. She touched her stomach, realizing she was hungry, she decided to get something to eat. She opened the door to find two bodyguards in the living room.

"Miss Crowe, what would you like?" asked the bodyguard.
