Neither Joshua nor Simon would listen to him, and now Ted knew how conceited he had been.

"Well, you two have your own ideas, and I can\'t help control you." Ted sighed. "But you..."

Ted hesitated. Even though Joshua moved out, Ted asked his subordinates to keep an eye on them, or he wouldn\'t have known so quickly about their falling out.

But in addition to that news, he had heard in recent days that Joshua had already been packing up and that he and Hazel seem to be ready to leave this country.

The news really freaked him out. Simon wanted to leave, and so did Joshua. For some reason, Ted felt that he would lose both of them forever.

"What?" Joshua frowned.

"... Nothing." In the end, Ted didn\'t ask. Even if he asked Joshua if he was ready to leave, Joshua would not tell him. Besides... he could not believe that Joshua would leave like this. But, on the other hand, he felt that Joshua would definitely do something before he left.

After a moment\'s silence, Ted said, "I was just wondering if you and Hazel could join your mother for her birthday in two days."

"Mr. King, you\'ve already used this excuse once," Joshua said with indifference.

Ted was embarrassed. He used Stacy as an excuse to trick Hazel into walking out of the house, so it was inevitable that Joshua didn\'t trust him and simply refused this time.

"I know you don\'t trust me..." Ted explained with resignation, "I just want your mother to have fun this time. I hope someone she likes can spend some time staying with her. So I won\'t throw a big party for her birthday. Well, I\'ve decided to book a room at Denmark Group\'s holiday village in Country M, which is not far from here. That\'s your place, isn\'t it?"

Charle narrowed his eyes.

If Ted did bring Stacy to the holiday village, it would be easier for him and Simon to protect Stacy. But he didn\'t think Ted\'s purpose would be so simple. He had no idea what Ted was up to.

"Conditions," Joshua said in an indifferent manner.

"No conditions," Ted spoke slowly. "Nothing I do for your mother requires any conditions."

Joshua was silent. He couldn\'t tell whether Ted\'s words were true or not, but he couldn\'t miss such a good opportunity.

"Good," he agreed calmly.

Hanging up the phone, Joshua set about arranging the holiday village. Ted\'s purpose would never be that simple, and that person wouldn\'t want to miss this opportunity to do something.

Seeing how busy he was, Hazel ordered the people in the kitchen to make him a glass of nourishing juice.

He was busy with his study. Then, hearing the knock at the door, he looked up to see Hazel walk in. A servant followed her, put the glass down, and then walked away.

"I asked the kitchen to make the nourishing juice for you," Hazel said. "Taste it."

"Good." He stopped working, stood up, helped Hazel sit down on a chair, and picked up the glass.

"By the way, Simon left today," she said.

"Mmm, I know. Because he was gone, that man would be bolder. I just found out he was in league with Daniel." He gave a sneer, with a touch of sarcasm in his smile.

He didn\'t care much about Daniel and didn\'t want to do anything to him, but he wouldn\'t go easy on Daniel this time.

Hazel couldn\'t help but furrow. So Daniel was actually the accomplice?

"Hazel, it isn\'t because I want you to worry that I told you this," he said, smoothing her brow. "Rest assured, the Bryant family will handle him."

Hearing that he had a plan, she said no more. "What about your father?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in his smile. "Of course, Ted lost his temper."

"Maybe he thought Simon would stay for Stacy\'s birthday," she sighed. "By the way, did Ted call you again?"

"No," he said lightly. "He must have known it would be useless to call me again. So now he\'s afraid I\'m going to cut ties with him like Simon."

"Have you not cut ties with each other?" she couldn\'t help asking.

"He hasn\'t realized his mistake yet," he said, putting down the glass as his eyes brightened. "So how could he possibly face up to this reality? I appease him by agreeing to his terms. I hope he won\'t make any trouble."

Hazel gently grabbed his hand. There was nothing she could do to help, but maybe all she could do was stay with him.

"Things will work out," she whispered.

"Mm," he said, smiling slightly and holding her finger in his palm, "In a few days, we can go home."

There was a flash of joy in her eyes.

She wanted to go home. She wanted to go back to Country Z, where there was her and Joshua\'s home, their family, their business, and their love, while there were all kinds of intrigues and plots in Country M where they couldn\'t feel comfortable at all…

"Mmm," she nodded and said, "After we go home, we won\'t come here. Joshua, I\'ve learned that we can\'t forcibly get some things. When I get home, I\'ll agree with you on everything."

His eyes flickered, and he held Hazel\'s hand tightly. "Hazel, don\'t blame yourself. If I really don\'t want to come, even if you insist, I will only try to persuade you to change your mind rather than choose to come with you. In the final analysis... the two of us shouldn\'t have unrealistic expectations. But it is not too late for us to see it through. Hazel, thank you for being with me..."

"I will always be with you!" she said firmly.

Soon, it was Stacy\'s birthday. Joshua and Hazel checked into the holiday village first. Security at the holiday village had also been fully upgraded by Joshua so that nothing could go wrong today.
