MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 1112 - 400: Chase The Kidnappers



"Wait! Joshua, you can't leave me here alone!" Mandy looked very frightened. She didn't know who would show up at the abandoned warehouse and wondered if the masked men would return.

Mandy knew if Joshua left her alone, she would be in danger. She could see that Joshua was ignoring her, and when his men started to leave, she was panic-stricken.

She cried hastily. "Please, arrange for two people to take me home, I really can't do it alone."

Joshua waved a little impatiently, and two bodyguards put Mandy directly into one of the cars. Before leaving, she looked in Joshua's direction with some reluctance, but Joshua didn't look at her at all. The next moment, the car sped away.

Outside the warehouse, Joshua had a scowl on his face. He didn't understand how his intelligence advisors could be wrong. It was clear that Simon had been there with Hazel, but he couldn't understand why they found Mandy.

Was it possible that Simon wasn't there at all? No, absolutely not!

"Mr. President," Jaxson whispered as he came to him. "We found Simon's car, and he escaped in one of the kidnappers' cars that were on the road behind the warehouse. The problem is that they are fleeing in two different directions."

After Joshua saw that Mandy and not Hazel had been kidnapped, she didn't bother to chase them when they ran away.

"Go after them!" Joshua's face darkened, and he quickly opened his car door. He paused before getting in, he was pondering Simon's motives.

With Simon's IQ, he wouldn't be stupid enough to expose himself for them to pursue. There was a great possibility he would use the car as a decoy and take Hazel away in another car.

However, Joshua knew that it was also possible that Simon had thought that Joshua would clue into his plan, so he actually left in the opposite direction.

In a flash, after running through everything in his head, Joshua came up with an idea.

"Jaxson, what are the kidnappers' cars like? Are they particularly clean and comfortable?" he asked in a deep tone.

Jaxson paused, and he said after a while of thinking. "There seems to be one, which doesn't fit in with the other cars."

"Chase the kidnappers," Joshua said in a deep voice.

Jaxson's face was full of surprise, but he did not ask much and drove in the direction that the kidnappers were escaping.

Simon and Hazel were in the kidnappers' car, which was the cleanest and most comfortable. Simon's phone rang, and when he answered it, his expression became serious.

"Joshua is coming after us." Hanging up, he didn't hide it from Hazel.

Hazel was relieved because she thought she was going to be taken away by Simon.

"Why are you so happy? It's not my car he's after, it's the kidnappers' car." He sneered. "It's apparent that because Joshua Denmark felt it was not enough to save Mandy that he wanted to pursue the kidnappers and avenge her."

"... That's not true," she said, looking pale.

"Not true?" He sneered. "Pumpkin, you really won't cry until you see the truth. Is Joshua that good?"

"Of course, he is!" she said, unconvinced. "At least if he sees me get hurt, he'll get me to the hospital first, he won't point a gun at me or hold me as a prisoner. He'll keep me from seeing the darkness and won't force me to face it!"

"Why do you speak so loud? Are you trying to convince yourself or me?" His smile looked more casual, but the cold light in his eyes betrayed his true heart.

She snorted angrily and looked out the window.

Simon's heart feels a little impatient. He played with the gun in his hand but didn't point it at Hazel again.

"I can do those things, too," he spoke.

"He has already done those things." She sneered without hesitation.

"Is that the reason why you want to be the daughter of the Denmark family?" He said, his eyes flashing with a cold gleam, "Even if you're bullied, abused, or trapped."

She nibbled her lip, refusing to answer his questions.

He wanted to continue, but he saw Joshua's car coming from a distance.

Joshua stared at the car Simon was sitting in. He remembered that Hazel had said that Simon was quite a neat freak and needed nice expensive cars. That information helped him assume that Simon would only choose to be in a clean and comfortable car, even if he was running. 

Simon's car suddenly went a different direction than the kidnappers' cars.

"Speed up," Joshua said in a low voice. "And, tell the three teams to start blocking the car."

"Aye." Jaxson hurried to agree.

Simon's car was going very fast, but several cars managed to overtake it and sandwiched it in.

Simon was not in a good mood. Although he knew that imperial capital was Joshua's land, he did not expect that Joshua could be so mighty. It seemed that he was caught off guard everywhere.

There were some things he needed to figure out before he got into a fight with Joshua. The cars had them surrounded, so he told the driver to pull over.

When Hazel got out of the car, Joshua looked pleased. "Hazel, come here…"

But Simon followed right behind her as she got out, Joshua could clearly see that he was holding a pistol against Hazel's back.

"How dare you hurt her, Simon King!" Looking at Hazel's scar on her forehead, Joshua's eyes are full of killing intent!

"I didn't hurt her, Joshua. Pumpkin's wound was because of you." Simon laughed arrogantly. "Well, let's let Pumpkin choose to go with you or with me, okay?"

"Do you think Hazel can choose like that?" Joshua's eyes were full of coldness. He glared at Simon's gun.

"All right," Simon said with a faint smile as he put away his gun. "I'm just afraid that my pumpkin will make a wrong choice on the spur of the moment."

Hazel turned her head around, shot him a furious look, and ran in Joshua's direction without hesitation.

"Pumpkin," Simon grabbed her wrist quickly, his face a little awkward. "If you go so fast, I'll lose everyone's respect. Have you forgotten that he is not here to save you?"

Joshua's face changed slightly. "Don't listen to him, Hazel…"

"Simon, do you think your plot will work?" She angrily threw his hand away.

"Huh?" Simon looked at her with a surprised expression.
