Chapter 504: We Come At A Bad Time
“We all know that you want to hurt me,” she spoke coldly. “I call you uncle for my dad’s sake. If you disturb my mother again, every time I meet Scott, I’ll beat him up!”
She had no patience to deal with them anymore. She knew what Matt and Emma cared about most, so she didn’t hesitate to cut them to the quick.
Sure enough, Matt and Emma went extremely pale, but even then, instead of getting mad at Hazel and giving up, they turned to Rachel for help. “Rachel, look, she….”
“I saw that. My Hazel looks great.” Rachel started playing dumb. If it weren’t for the fact that she had difficulty in moving, she’d have beaten them up.
“You’re not going yet?” Hazel took a step toward Matt and Emma.
The powerful momentum suddenly appeared on her, made their hearts cold somehow, and at the same time, they couldn’t help taking a step backward. Emma got furious and wanted to make a scene the next moment, but Matt held out his hands to pull her.
Matt still didn’t give up. He looked at Rachel on the sickbed and said, “Hazel, don’t you consider your parents? They worked hard to bring you up. If you marry and live in another city, how can you come back in time if something happens to your parents?”
Hazel’s eyes went dark slightly. The fact that Rachel and Harry weren’t with her and thus she couldn’t take care of them was a thorn in her heart indeed.
Although she was adopted, she treated them as her biological parents.
“Yeah. If it weren’t for your parents, would we be worried and act as matchmakers for you? Countless women are fighting to marry that rich, handsome boss!” Emma chimed in. “You must think it over. A woman can marry any man, but she can have only one dad and one mom.”
“You’re right,” Hazel said in a deep tone.
Matt and Emma felt delighted in the heart. Did it look like their persuasion worked? If the thing could really happen, they would be able to get rid of big trouble!
Matt said quickly, “We’ll arrange a meeting for you.”
“No, it’s not necessary.” Hazel directly interrupted.
Matt was confused. “Hazel, you think we’re right, aren’t we?"
“You’re right. If my parents aren’t around, I can’t take care of them, so,” Hazel said seriously, “I decided to take my parents to the imperial capital!”
Matt and Emma froze instantly. That was not what they wanted!
“You’re such a braggart,” Emma came to her senses and couldn’t help snapping. “What do you think imperial capital is? Can you all live there as long as you want...”
Matt yanked her before she could finish the sentence.
“We come at a bad time,” Matt smiled apologetically and said. “Hazel, take good care of your mom. We’ll come another day.”
After that, Matt directly dragged Emma away.
Walking along the hospital hallway, Emma tried to get rid of Matt’s hand. “Why did you drag me to leave? The little girl was obviously bragging. Move to the imperial capital... She has recently graduated, and she may not be able to support herself. How can she support her parents in the imperial capital?”
“Shut up!” Matt yelled at her angrily. “We’re in the hospital now. Aren’t you afraid of being overheard?”
In an instant, Emma shivered with fear, but her face was full of defiance.
“You’re still unconvinced?” Matt directly slapped her in the face. “Why have I married you who’s such a bitch?! What would happen even if we know Hazel is bragging? If you expose her on the spot, what advantages can we get except we would cause them to fall out with us? If they really fall out with us, how can we take Hazel to...”
Speaking of this, Matt suddenly looked around warily. When he found no one noticed him, he said in a low voice, “Do you still want that to succeed?”
Emma understood instantly, but she was unwilling to admit defeat. “I was just mad at that wench! She is just an adopted girl, but Harry and Rachel are actually so kind to her! They don’t mean to raise her as a child bride, do they?”
“If she were a child bride, she would have married Ronald now,” Matt said, unconcerned. “Enough! Let’s go home. As long as we don’t fall out with them, we’ll get them to agree on that sooner or later….”
They walked away, but they did not notice that a sharp glance fell on them like lightning.
Joshua’s face was very dark as he glared at Matt and his wife’s back. Hardly had he come out of the doctor’s office when he heard the noise of the two of them.
He met Matt’s family during the Christmas season, so he recognized them easily.
These two guys were actually plotting against Hazel?
The next moment, he took out his phone and made a call.
***
Hazel couldn’t help frowning after closing the door.
She sat down at the bedside, pouting. “Mom, why didn’t you tell me you were hurt?”
“I was afraid that you would be worried about me. Besides, it isn’t a serious injury.” Rachel’s voice softened as she looked at Hazel, full of love.
“Where are my dad and my brother?” Hazel said, with an unhappy face, “You’re in the hospital. Why aren’t they with you?”
“Your brother returns home to cook for me, and your dad is out on his rounds,” Rachel explained with a smile. “Don’t blame them. We all didn’t expect your uncle’s family would come when they weren’t here. It was an accident.”
Harry worked in this hospital. He had intended to keep Rachel’s company, but she didn’t agree.
Initially, the rounds didn’t last long, so they didn’t think much and didn’t make other arrangements, but god knew Matt and Emma would take advantage of it to come.
“I should have come back earlier to be with you,” Hazel said guiltily.
Rachel’s heart suddenly softened. As expected, this girl was her daughter, who she had raised. Even if Matt and Matt plotted against Hazel, Hazel’s first concern was still her health.
“Don’t worry, the doctor said it wasn’t serious, and I’ll be able to leave the hospital in a few days, by the way,” she said, frowning, “Hazel, there’s something wrong with your uncle’s family. I don’t think they really want to be matchmakers for you.”
“I know that.” Hazel nodded. Naturally, she felt something was wrong from the start.
Given the nature of Matt and Emma, as long as they were slightly bullied, they would definitely make a scene. Hazel didn’t give them any face this time and was very cold toward them, but the two of them could actually calm themselves, except that Emma occasionally couldn’t control her anger.
Even when Matt and Matt left, their faces paled terribly, but they still didn’t lose their temper and said they would come back later. It would be too weird if they weren’t up to something.
