Chapter 110: I Will Miss You
Joshua nodded, confirming that he did travel with the bodyguards, he did not like lying to Hazel, but he did not want to make her suspicious.
After dinner, Joshua took Hazel back to her parents’ home. They stopped the car near Crowe's neighborhood so Hazel could walk the rest of the way, but as she was about to get out of the car, she saw Matt and his family leaving her house.
"Why are they here again?" Hazel could not help but frown.
"Maybe they came back to return the money," Joshua said lightly.
"If only that were true," Hazel said.
"Hazel, what are your plans for tomorrow?" asked Joshua eagerly, with some anticipation in his eyes.
"I have an appointment with my former classmate tomorrow, so I won’t be able to stay with you," Hazel said regretfully, knowing what he was looking forward to.
"Is it a boy you once had a crush on?" Joshua said sourly.
"It's a girl!" Hazel smiled, "Mr. President, are you satisfied now?"
Joshua was somewhat embarrassed.
"Joshua." Hazel suddenly opened her mouth.
"Huh?" He looked at her in surprise.
"Give me two days," Hazel said firmly. "In two days, I'll be looking for you."
"That is to say, I can't see you for two days?"
"That's right." Hazel smiled and nodded. She reached out to open the car door. "See you for now."
Joshua suddenly caught her waist and kissed her lips.
"I will miss you." He said quietly.
"It's just two days..." Hazel was moved and amused. "Rest assured, I will give you a pleasant surprise at that time."
"What kind of surprise?" Joshua asked in surprise.
"I can't tell you now. Otherwise, It's not a surprise."
"Very well." Though reluctant, he still answered yes.
When Hazel got home, she found her uncle's family did come and pay back the money. And they didn't complain about it, which surprised Harry and Rachel.
However, the family had framed Hazel today. Even if they returned the money, Harry and Rachel did not plan to have any more contact with them.

Two days later, in the early morning, Joshua stood by the window of the presidential suite, looking down at the sights of City S with some hesitation.
If he called Hazel now, would she think he was pushing her?
Suddenly, his cell phone rang, and he was surprised that it was Hazel.
He did not want to seem eager, so he waited a moment and then answered with a casual tone.
"Good morning!" Hazel's crisp voice came from the phone receiver with a touch of overwhelming joy.
Joshua felt warm all over, and he suddenly had a strange feeling. He turned and walked towards the door. "Do you remember what you promised me?" he asked.
"Of course, I said I wanted to surprise you." Hazel said happily, "Do you want to know what surprise it is?"
"Let me guess." Joshua said with his hands resting on the doorknob, "Are you outside the door now?"
When the door opened, Hazel stood in the doorway with a surprised look. She was smiling and asked, "You, you... How did you know I was here? "
Joshua smiled lightly, "Great minds think alike."
He just had a hunch that Hazel was outside the door. And he was right.
"I wanted to surprise you." sighed Hazel.
"I'm really surprised." Joshua smiled a little. Suddenly, he asked, "Why are you carrying your suitcase?"
"I told my parents I had something to do and need to go back to school earlier." Hazel smiled. "So, now I can go back to Imperial Capital with you. That should be a surprise, right?"
Joshua smiled happily.
"Hazel, I'm happy." Joshua took her suitcase and looked at her with dark eyes, "You really are determined?"
While Joshua was hiding in her bedroom, he felt the deep connection between Hazel and her parents, but now she lied to her parents for him again.
"Well, it's decided." Hazel nodded. "But this is the last time!"
"Okay." Joshua smiled, "Next year, I'll go back to your house, honestly."
Hazel's cheeks turned red.
The two returned to Imperial Capital on Joshua's private jet. After getting off the plane, Hazel was somewhat dizzy.
"Why so listless?" Joshua touched her forehead, "Are you tired?"
"No." Hazel shook her head. She looked at him in amazement. "I was just surprised. You're usually so low-key, but you attach importance to the quality of life. Your private jet is so luxurious, and I'm still a little shocked."
Joshua became deeper.
Suddenly he said, "My parents said they wanted to give their daughter the best things in the world. I'm glad you like it."
Unfortunately, his parents died, filled with guilt before they found Hazel. He had personally prepared this private jet just for her; it all belonged to her, and she deserved to have the best. That's what he did for his parents.
Hazel was shocked. Joshua sometimes liked to say things that she didn't quite understand.
"Did you mean that your parents actually prepared the plane for you? But they preferred a daughter, and they didn't expect you to be a son?" She guessed.
Joshua smiled, "I was just joking. Don't think about it. Come on, Isaac asked us to get together."
Hazel didn't bother stressing over what Joshua had said.
Joshua took her to a private club in the capital, where his friends were waiting in the luxury box of the club.
As the two of them pushed the door open and walked in, Isaac Anderson winked as he approached Hazel affectionately. "Hazel, you are here too?"
"Well." Hazel nodded. Isaac's enthusiasm was always too much for her.
"Joshua, you're really sneaky." Isaac said bitterly, "No wonder you weren't there yesterday. It turned out you went to pick up Hazel."
"I didn't pick her up," Joshua said lightly.
"Where have you been?" Isaac asked curiously.
"I'm just coming back with Hazel." Joshua flicked his lips and smiled triumphantly.
"Holy! You've advanced to the stage of meeting the parents?" Isaac said, stunned. He said gloomily, "I knew I shouldn't have called you. You are here to give us a public display of affection on Christmas vacation!"
