"After hearing this, I\'m afraid the early death of the two daughters in their house may not have been that simple," Rachel said as she looked pale. "I\'m afraid this family may have abused them and caused their death or abandoned them because of their dislike of daughters."

Hazel sighed because Rachel was right. She had heard from Theresa that her two dead sisters had been abused by her parents when they were babies.

What makes the entire situation more despicable is that they not only had no guilt over it, but they often used the incidents to intimidate Theresa, as if sparing her life was a great act of kindness.

"How can these people even have children?" Rachel was furious. "I don\'t think they\'ll end up with a son around them even if they have a lot!"

"Mom, don\'t be angry," Hazel said hurriedly. "Didn\'t Theresa break ties with her family? That\'s a good thing."

Then Rachel\'s expression softened a little.

"Shall we go and see the child for a minute?" Harry suggested.

"I\'m afraid not." Rachel disagreed. "I\'ve seen cases where this kind of child is terribly traumatized, and it is counterproductive for strangers to comfort them. Leave it to the psychiatrist."

"That\'s right." Harry nodded, agreeing. Then he looked at Hazel. "Since this child depends on you, Hazel, you should take more care of her."

"Mmm." Hazel nodded hurriedly.

She suddenly felt very happy. Her adoptive parents were also very kind. They rescued her and raised her as their own daughter, but they did not expect anything in return for their upbringing. Even when it came to Theresa, whose family they hated, they were not judging or disgusted by her, they showed nothing but kindness. But… how could such kind parents become the unreasonable Capulet couple in the face of the relationship between her and Joshua?

They stayed at Denmark Residence, but her parents would suddenly appear like ghosts, staring at them whenever she was near Joshua. Hazel was so scared several times, and she had walked away before she even had time to say a few words to Joshua.

It had been going on like this for days, which was making her crazy, and she was close to breaking down. Worse still, Joshua was worried about her safety, so he asked her to stay in the Denmark Residence for a few days instead of going out. Even though she could be here with her parents and deal with some work, she felt very anxious.

When she finally couldn\'t bear it anymore, she found a chance to escape her parents\' surveillance and snuck to see Joshua.

Joshua was in the study, his fingers tapping on the desk, quietly listening to Jaxson\'s report.

"... The forces of those directors have been eradicated, and now it is much safer for Miss Crowe to go out," Jaxson said. "But they didn\'t seem to have any contact with Director Cohen, and it didn\'t affect him this time."

"He didn\'t have to make a move on this kind of thing. As long as he released Hazel\'s identity, naturally, some people would be uneasy," Joshua said simply. "Keep searching. By the way, how is the Flores couple?"

"I\'ve already taken them home," He replied. "They\'ll live a miserable life."

The Flores couple\'s home was in a small remote place. When they had money, they moved to the county town. But now Joshua had taken back everything he had given them, so they had to return to their ruined homeland.

Before they left, they had knocked down their house and now had no place to live, so they had to live in a poor house nearby. The two had gone to look for their own sons, but when their sons saw that they were so down and out, they refused to admit they were their parents, unwilling to support them.

They had become so accustomed to a good life that they refused to live a poor life as they had before. They became lazy and spent each day recalling their previous life and begging.

The two were now regretting that they had so many sons, but none of them were reliable. They hoped they would have kept a daughter to support them or have not fallen out with Theresa, who would soften easily and would not leave them alone. But it was too late, and that would be poor for the rest of their lives.

The thought of this gave Jaxson a bit of pleasure somehow.

The family was blinded by their own greed. Joshua helped them, but they were trying to conspire against the Denmark family for the property. Hazel was kind to them, but the Flores couple were bad to her and even wanted their son to sleep with her. What\'s worse, they even tried to sell their own daughter.

Jaxson wanted to say they deserved it even if they were living a miserable life.

"What about Henry Flores?" Joshua\'s eyes were deep. He could let Lanny and Caroline go, except Henry, who tried to seduce Hazel. Joshua had already heard Hazel\'s recording. Though she had made use of their trick to defeat them and didn\'t suffer, he could not forgive him for what he had done to her.

When the Flores family left, Henry didn\'t want to go, so he escaped, he had no idea that Joshua deliberately let him escape.

"He\'s been hiding, he has racked up a lot of gambling debt, and he is in the hands of a small underground gang, being tormented very miserably," Jaxson said.

"Mm," Joshua said quietly. "Don\'t let Hazel know that."

Jaxson hastened to agree.

Hazel slyly walked to the entrance to the study and saw Jaxson coming out.

"Is Joshua here?" she asked in a low voice.

"Yes." Puzzled, Jaxson asked, "Miss Crowe, why are you so sneaky?"

She made a booing gesture and whispered, "Don\'t tell my parents where I am if you bump into them."

As she spoke, she hurriedly went into the study.

"Joshua…" She came to him a little anxiously, but before she could say anything, Rachel\'s voice sounded at the door. "Jaxson, have you seen Hazel?"

Jaxson spent a lot of time at Denmark Residence, so Rachel had started to get to know him.

Hazel\'s face changed instantly. She looked around, then grabbed Joshua\'s arm and took him to the hidden bookcase in the study.
