Chapter 530: I’m Not Considerate

It was indeed Joshua’s plan that Simon came to save Hazel.

But if Simon told Hazel about it, she would perhaps guess something and might affect their plan. It was not that he thought Hazel was going to slow him down. Like Joshua, he was afraid that Hazel would be in danger.

“Pumpkin, you think too much, don’t you?” Simon spoke smilingly, “You should know about my relationship with that guy. How could I obey him?”

“Oh?” Hazel looked at him with a half-smile. “Master King, tell me then why did you come to save me so coincidentally today?”

“I followed that woman. I guessed she was after you, so I came to protect you,” said Simon, without changing his expression.

“Oh?” she continued asking, “Then why didn’t you show up when she asked the men to catch me?”

“I was just worried that she might have a last resort,” Simon said, without any hint of guilt. He pointed to the men who came afterward and said with a very serious face, “Look, they are her reinforcements, aren’t they?”

Madeline shook her head desperately. She was so anxious that her tears fell down. Those people Simon was talking about weren’t hers at all!

Hazel, of course, didn’t believe Simon’s nonsense. She stood in front of Madeline and said, “In that case, give her to me, and I’ll ask her.”

“Is that good, Pumpkin?” Simon stopped smiling. “Such evil things should be done by evil people like me. She’s not worth you to get your hands dirty. Now, take the men out here!”

As soon as he spoke, his men took those people away quickly, and Hazel could not stop them at all.

“Simon,” Hazel snapped, taking his hand, “Don’t you think that’s a false excuse?”

Simon stopped walking and looked down at Hazel’s hand holding his sleeve, his mouth tilting upwards slightly at the corners. “Pumpkin, this is the first time you have been so enthusiastic toward me. Your behavior will be misunderstood. Why don’t you come home with me so that we can develop our relationship together?”

Hazel threw off his hands in anger. She never let down her guard against him. Although she didn’t know why Joshua joined hands with him, if she really left with Simon, she would be a sheep entering a tiger’s mouth! Moreover, even if she left with him, Simon would not tell her any useful information.

Looking at Hazel’s pale face, Simon seemed a little disappointed. “Pumpkin, are you really not going with me?”

Hazel looked even paler. The more he acted like that, the more alert she became.

Simon’s eyes flashed with sadness. Sure enough, Hazel was as wary of him as ever. He didn’t say anymore and walked away quickly with his men. Now that Hazel was safe, he didn’t need to worry any longer.

Sitting in the car, Simon took out his phone and prepared to call Joshua. He didn’t know if Madeline’s words would make Hazel suspicious.

Suddenly, he cursed in frustration and put the phone down immediately.

Was he nuts? He actually tried to call Joshua? Even if Hazel guessed something and questioned Joshua, it would only be a headache for Joshua. Why did he rush to help them solve problems?

Simon was really angry at the thought of this!

Simon’s phone rang suddenly. It was the person he had left behind to protect Hazel. After he left, Hazel also left soon. Simon ordered his men to escort Hazel home before hanging up.

With the phone in his hand, his face became extremely gloomy.

He had lied to Hazel. In fact, he knew the men who had come to attack her and try to take her away. Not only did he know them, but he knew them well.

Otherwise, he would not have been so shocked and in such a hurry to leave when their masks were taken off.

Simon felt more upset. Then he dialed a number.

When the other party answered the phone, Simon said impatiently, “Uncle, it’s me.”

“Si, Simon, it’s so late. What’s up?” on the other end of the phone, a middle-aged man’s vigorous voice sounded. His voice seemed a little strained.

“Uncle,” Simon frowned unhappily, “I remember I told you not to do anything bad to Hazel!”

“I didn’t do anything to her….”

“Uncle!” Simon’s voice was full of anger. “Your people are in my hands now. Do you want them to confront you face to face?!”

Hearing the anger in Simon’s words, the man on the other end sighed helplessly, “Simon, how can I not obey what you have told me? I can probably understand what’s going on. Some time ago, when your father left the organization, he took away some of my best people. It should be those people that you have met.”

“Do you mean,” Simon’s fingers tightened, “the old man did that?”

“I don’t know,” the middle-aged man said in a deep voice, “but you know your father’s temper. He has always been domineering. How could he do nothing to a woman who could affect his two sons?”

Simon fell silent. The middle-aged man who did not get his response asked as a feeler despite himself, “Simon, after all, they have been following me for many years. Can you send them back…”

“No.” Simon refused without hesitation and reminded him, frowning, “Uncle, they belong to the old man now!”

Simon knew the organization better than anyone. As long as Ted directly led the people, they would definitely be after Hazel again if Simon let them go.

The man said disappointedly, “I’m not considerate….”

“I’ll send them to you after a period of time, don’t worry.” With that, Simon hung up. The news made him feel heavier. With Ted’s temper, even if Simon saved Hazel the first time, Ted would still harm her again.

But at least not now. Ted had other things to do now. It seemed that what he and Joshua were plotting in secret should be accelerated.

***

Hazel sat in the car heading for Denmark Residence as her mouth tightened into a thin line.

She was really upset when she thought of what had happened today.

Madeline showed up strangely and somehow said Joshua didn’t go abroad. Besides, the goal of the people who were really good at fighting was to catch her, but Hazel sensed that if she made any resistance, they would directly kill her. What they wanted was exactly her life.

Taking a deep breath, Hazel suppressed her confused thoughts.

Suddenly, a familiar phone ringtone sounded.
