MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 1309 - 597: Are You The Butler?



There was sharpness and scrutiny in Simon's eyes.

"Yes," Joshua replied as he nodded. "No matter what Hazel wants to do, I'll be there for her."

"Don't you know how dangerous it will be to go to Country M?" Simon was a little helpless, "I think you really spoiled her!"

"I know," Joshua said, looking at Simon with deep eyes. "Hence, we have to be well prepared so he can't do anything to Hazel."

"How could the old man..." Simon suddenly understood and said in surprise, "Wait, do you mean we prevent him from…."

Simon mused. With Ted's egotism, Ted never changed his mind if he had decided to do something. But Joshua's meaning was that they could make Ted completely unable to hurt Hazel.

Sure enough, Simon was right about Joshua.

On the surface, Joshua agreed to take Hazel to Country M to get Ted's acceptance, but what Joshua really wanted was to force Ted to accept Hazel.

If so, Simon didn't want to miss this wonderful drama.

"Yes." Joshua's eyes were deep.

"I'm somewhat interested in the suggestion." Simon had a wicked glint in his eye. "I'm willing to work with you on anything that makes the old man feel bad. However, we haven't found out exactly how capable he is. Time is too tight for us to prepare much, I'm afraid…"

"One month is enough," Joshua said in a deep tone.

"So, in fact, it isn't because of my wounds that you want to ask him for an extra month?" Simon pretended he was angry.

"Do you think you can't recover in Country M?" A sarcastic smile played on his lips. "I'm sure the old man you hate would love to be a good father for you at a time like this."

Imagining the scene, Simon couldn't resist shuddering.

"A month is a bit tight." Simon thought hard before he said. Their opponent was Ted King. After fighting him once, Simon dared not to be overweening.

"It's enough." There was more sarcasm on Joshua's face. "With one month's preparation time and two months' buffer period, if we can't get rid of a tiger without teeth in three months, how can you be qualified for taking over the organization? How can I be qualified to take charge of Denmark Group? We might as well surround him obediently and behave like a good baby!"

Irritated by these words, Simon gritted his teeth. "You're right. If we can't even defeat the old man this time, we might as well go back to being a baby needing breast milk!"

"So we're on the same page?" asked Joshua lightly.

"... Nonsense!" Simon was helpless. Didn't he want to refuse? How was he convinced by a few words of Joshua, who was crafty? It looked as if Joshua had lost his memory, but he was as cunning as ever!

"By the way…." Joshua hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "You shouldn't have let Ian Flores go."

"I know," Simon said with a bitter smile, "but I don't want to owe him."

He knew that even if he let Flores go this time, Ian Flores wouldn't feel grateful and would retaliate whenever Ian got the chance. It was just that Ian really treated Simon wholeheartedly, so Simon let him go as a way of paying him back.

"In the future..." Joshua's eyes went deep.

"If he comes to me again, I won't go easy on him," Simon said, his eyes cooling. "I don't owe him anything now."

Joshua's eyes became deeper. "I'll catch him."

Joshua was well aware that Simon might still relent if he faced Ian Flores again despite Simon's words. If it were Joshua who caught Ian Flores, Simon wouldn't have to be torn.

Simon looked at Simon with a complicated expression. He was really not quite used to Joshua's kindness to him...

"Have a good rest, I'm leaving," Joshua spoke quietly.

"Wait!" Watching him leave, Simon seemed to want to say something, but he paused. After quite a while, Simon finally said in a deep tone, "We must win this time!"

"Of course," Joshua replied calmly.

Hearing Simon wanted to rest for a month in Country Z, Ted disagreed.

But it was the cunning Joshua who Ted faced. Obeying Joshua, Simon repeatedly complained over the phone about how badly he was hurt and how heartbroken he was because he had been kept in the dark, which made Ted feel somewhat guilty and finally agree that they could come back to Country M in a month.

During this month, Simon recovered from his injury very quickly, but unfortunately, he still failed to catch Ian Flores. Ian must have been waiting quietly for the best opportunity.

Hazel was busy handing over the work in the Denmark Group to Jaxson. Both she and Joshua were reassured to ask Jaxson to take charge of Denmark Group. In addition, because Joshua emerged after several months' disappearance, the directors would not dare to do anything bad even if Hazel and Joshua left for two months at present.

Hazel also tried to help Joshua get his memory back, but it didn't go well. Joshua tried harder than she did to remember the past, but the doctors told them bluntly that getting memory back could only depend on chance.

Maybe Joshua could remember everything tomorrow, maybe he would never remember anything, or maybe he would remember something because of stimulation.

Since even the doctors said that, of course, Hazel didn't want to push Joshua too hard.

A month later, Joshua took Hazel and Simon to a plane to Country M.

It was morning in Country M when the plane arrived at the manor.

When Hazel got off the plane, she felt dizzy. However, she did not expect that the plane would land directly on the manor.

"Master Joshua, Master Simon," the butler came up to Joshua and Simon before greeting them politely, but his eyes appeared a little contemptuous as they fell on Hazel.

After pausing for a while, he said, "Miss Crowe. This way, please."

He pointed sideways at the car ahead.

"Are you the butler? Come here." Simon smiled wickedly.

The butler was slightly shocked. Though he was puzzled, he still walked to Simon.

Simon suddenly lifted his leg and kicked him, forcing him to take a few steps backward.

"My elder brother and my sister-in-law are good-natured, but do you want to bully them because of that?" Simon opened his mouth with a sneer. "They are generous, but I've always been petty! Miss Crowe? Didn't your master tell you that you should call her Mrs. King?"
