Chapter 1317 - 605: Rejecting Them



She had prepared not to visit Stacy for a while. She was dying to see Stacy and know about Stacy\'s current situation, but she had to hold back the urge, trying not to anger Ted.

But now Ted actually wanted her to approach Stacy of his own accord?

"Okay, I\'ll go later," Hazel said.

No matter what Ted was up to since he sent someone for her, she would go.

When the servant left, Hazel looked at Joshua with a puzzle. "Well... What does he want?"

"I don\'t know." Joshua shook his head. "I\'ll go with you. We\'ll play it by ear."

Hazel nodded.

Joshua hadn\'t seen Stacy since his return. It wasn\'t because he didn\'t want to, but because there was something urgent that he needed to do, so he was busy till late yesterday.

Together, Hazel and Joshua arrived at South House, where Stacy lived. Then Hazel realized she had thought too much.

Even if Ted asked her to come to visit Stacy, that didn\'t mean he began to trust her.

In the South House, there were servants and bodyguards almost every two meters. Hazel was pretty sure they were watching out for her, afraid she would do something to Stacy.

Hazel really didn\'t get it. If Ted didn\'t believe her, why did he ask her to come here? What the heck was Ted trying to do?

Stacy sat in the living room with glassy eyes while Ted sat by her side.

"You\'re here?" Ted said indifferently. There was no hint of dislike in his expression, but likewise, he didn\'t mean to be close to them.

"Mm," Joshua replied lightly.

"I\'ve thought about it," Ted said quietly. "It would not be good for us to continue the standoff, so I\'m ready to show you some sincerity."

Joshua and Hazel looked indifferent even if Ted said that they still didn\'t believe him.

"As long as Hazel gets Stacy\'s approval, I won\'t object to you being together," Ted said in a deep voice.

Joshua\'s eyes were slightly cold. He was certainly aware of Stacy\'s situation. It was almost impossible for Hazel to get Stacy\'s approval. By doing so, Ted was, in fact, rejecting them!

This so-called sincerity was just a joke!

"Hazel, you go in there with Stacy," Ted said in a deep tone. "Joshua, come here. I have something for you to do."

"Wait!" Hazel looked at Stacy, frowning slightly despite herself. "Mr. King, I just want to ask, when I walk Aunt Stacy into the bedroom later, there won\'t be as many people in there, will there?"

In order not to anger Ted, she called him by a distant address, "Mr. King."

"Hazel Crowe," said Ted as his eyes flashed with a touch of sarcasm, "I haven\'t trusted you yet. What\'s wrong with me being defensive about you? Didn\'t Joshua also replace all the servants in West House and even buy groceries without applying the special channel of groceries for the manor?"

Joshua did all this yesterday. At the thought of Joshua guarding him like this, Ted seethed with rage.

"If you don\'t trust me," Hazel said in a deep voice, "I can leave. But if you want me to stay, you must withdraw these people around..."

"Hazel, don\'t be insatiable!" The anger in his eyes grew stronger and stronger. "If you don\'t want to cherish this opportunity, then you break up with Joshua now, and I\'ll send you back to Country Z immediately."

"Mr. King, you really are such an arrogant idiot!" Hazel also got angry and couldn\'t resist interrogating. "Aunt Stacy is feeling very uncomfortable and nervous. Can\'t you really see that?\'

"What do you mean?" Ted\'s face changed. When it came to Stacy, he didn\'t even mind Hazel scolding him. When did Stacy show signs of being uncomfortable or nervous?

"Aunt Stacy doesn\'t like crowds," Hazel explained in a deep voice. "When she was recovering in a nursing home, she was alone. She is used to silence. The doctor has said that when there are too many people, it would make her scared and want to hide herself... Wait a minute!"

Hazel thought of something and looked at Ted in shock. "I thought you were guarding me, so you asked so many people to guard here. But in fact… you used to get so many people to guard Aunt Stacy?"

Ted\'s face was even sourer. He suddenly remembered some bad memories. When he took Stacy back to the manor, Stacy was hugely emotional and nearly hurt herself a few times after seeing him.

He was worried that something would really happen to Stacy, so when he wasn\'t around, he would arrange for a lot of people to guard her, but God knew Stacy got sicker and sicker. It was as if she had lost her soul. He was very worried, but there was nothing he could do!

"Judging by his reaction now, you know he likely did it a lot." Joshua looked at Ted coldly and tried hard to suppress his anger. "I once asked the doctor about my mother\'s sickness. The doctor told me it was better to give her a quiet and comfortable environment. You can\'t even follow these basic instructions. Now I doubt that you don\'t really care about my mother."

"Of course, I do!" Ted was a little angry. "Even if there are some people around her, I order them not to make a sound. Isn\'t it quite enough?"

Hazel was really furious.

Even if Ted didn\'t like her, tried to separate her from Joshua, and even if he was partial to Madeline, Hazel wasn\'t angry. Because she thought it was just because Ted was biased against her. After all, he was trying to be a good father. It was just that his approach wasn\'t right.

But after seeing his attitude toward Stacy\'s sickness today, she really couldn\'t hold back her anger.

Ted\'s autocratic personality made him believe everything that he did was right! That was why he wouldn\'t listen to anyone else and only took care of Stacy in a way that he thought was the best! But he had no idea that he was to blame for the aggravation of her illness!

"Mr. King, I\'m going to take my mother to West House," said Joshua flatly.

"What do you mean?" Ted\'s face paled.

"Nothing special," said Joshua as his whole body appeared cold. "After you\'ve ruined Simon and me, I just don\'t want you to get my mother killed."

"Joshua, don\'t go too far!" Ted\'s face was filled with shame and anger, and his heart was a little miserable.

Hazel, who was all for Joshua, opened her mouth with a grim face, "Mr. King, if you can\'t follow the doctor\'s instructions, leave Aunt Stacy to us, please. Don\'t wait to regret it until things are irreversible. Of course, if you just want Aunt Stacy, who is like an inflatable doll, forget what I say. She is too unfortunate as she\'s suffered so much over these years..."
