Chapter 132: Take Me Home
“It saved me.” Hazel pulled a necklace with a charm out of her dress.
She was still a little scared. But when she saw it, she was a little dispirited. Joshua gave it to her, and she wore it all the time, except when she was in the shower.
She didn’t expect that the charm would really save her life.
But where was Joshua, who gave it to her? He was with another woman.
“Get in.” Isaac took her to another car. “I’ll take you to Joshua!”
“Oh?” There was a fluster in Hazel’s eyes.
Then she lowered her head, dispirited. “Forget it, Isaac, I’m exhausted after this incident. Take me home.”
“It’s because you almost had an accident that you should go to him!” Isaac said in a deep voice. “You were on the verge of death just now. How can you not let him know how dangerous it was?”
Hazel was tongue-tied.
She didn’t want to go because she was afraid of seeing something that would make her more miserable, but at the same time, it was a dangerous encounter, and it was only Joshua who flashed through her mind.
She always felt very free and easy, but she found out that she was scared when it came to life and death. When she was scared, she hoped Joshua would be with her.
She lowered her eyes and did not refuse again.
Looking out of the window, there was still a touch of shock and horror in her heart. “Who in the world would hold such a grudge against me? wanting me to die...”
“Hazel, they may not have come for you.” Isaac frowned. “Joshua asked me to get you home. If anything happened to you, he would turn against me. Most likely, those people were coming for me. Besides, it happened that my car broke down, it was possible my car had been tampered with.”
“In other words, is the other party actually trying to kill two birds with one stone?” Hazel held her arms tightly and suddenly felt cold.
In her twenty years on Earth, Hazel had a few rocky times, but it was usually smooth, at least to this point, nobody wanted her to die.
The only person who held a grudge against her… was Vanessa Young. If Joshua had known that she suspected Vanessa, he would have been even more irritated.
“Stop thinking about it,” Isaac said. “Leave it to Joshua and me. We’ll find out the truth!”
She said nothing more but let out a loud sigh.
Isaac called Jaxson to confirm the address of the hospital where Joshua was and headed in that direction.

At the hospital, Vanessa was frantically struggling on the bed. “Let me go! Let me go! I want to transfer to another hospital! I don’t want to stay here!”
But a group of nurses and doctors held her limbs down, and she could do nothing but shout.
How did this happen?
Vanessa was terrified. Joshua had hugged her and took her to the hospital, making her dizzy with happiness for a moment.
But when she got into Joshua’s car, she realized something was strange.
The baby in her womb was not Joshua’s at all. She and Joshua both clearly knew it wasn’t, so why did Joshua care about it?
Was Joshua trying to save the baby to get another DNA test?
Vanessa felt cold all over.
In her plan, Joshua should try to deny it when he heard she was pregnant with his baby, and then she would go to the hospital because of her miscarriage. In this case, dead Men Tell No Tales.
She thought as long as she provoked the media, Joshua’s image as a womanizer would be built, and there would be no opportunity for him to turn it around.
But the plan, which had not been implemented in time, was disrupted by Joshua. Was he... so distrustful?
Vanessa was trembling all over. No, the fetus must be removed. If the fetus were saved, she would be the one to fail.
Vanessa struggled even harder at the thought of this. “Let me go!”
Joshua opened the door of the ward and walked in with a cold face.
She looked at him incredulously, with anger and fear in her eyes.
“Mr. Denmark, the patient’s mood is very unstable, refusing to cooperate at all,” the doctor said, sweating.
“Oh?” Joshua’s brow clouded with coldness. “If she won’t cooperate, why don’t you sedate her?”
The doctor was in a daze and then said intuitively, “But with a sedative, the fetus is likely to be deformed.”
Vanessa cried out with delight as if she had clutched at straws, “I don’t want to be sedated! Joshua, didn’t you hear him? Sedatives can deform my baby!”
Joshua’s eyes narrowed as he walked closer to Vanessa.
In an instant, Vanessa felt the invisible tremendous pressure descending upon her, and her voice trailed off fainter with a shiver.
“Do you think I would care?” he looked at her coldly. “All I want is for the fetus to live. What does the freak you will give birth to have to do with me? Give her the medicine!”
The doctor agreed at once, and Vanessa shivered, even more, she had never known that Joshua would be so ruthless.
In the past, he had been so tolerant of her nonsense, she had believed that he was good-tempered and that he didn’t seem to care what she did.
However, it turned out to be all a delusion?
“Joshua, I beg you, have them let me go! They’re bad, trying to take the baby out of my belly! Please, let me transfer to another hospital!” Vanessa cried desperately.
“Isn’t it you who wants your baby to go away?” Joshua looked a little colder. “Relax, Vanessa, your child will be powerful, and these doctors will protect you.”
‘I won’t!” Her heart was filled with fear as Vanessa cried out in a fluster, “Joshua, why did you change? You used to be very good and gentle! Why are you doing this to me?!”
“I used to be nice to you because you were my friend.” Joshua looked at her sarcastically. “Why do you think I can still put up with you after you’ve tried to hurt Hazel repeatedly and even kill us?! I will show you, Vanessa, how cruel I am to my enemies!”
Vanessa’s face was terribly pale, and her heart was filled with despair. When the doctor sedated her, she didn’t have even the courage to resist.
There was a knock on the door.
“Mr. President,” Jaxson whispered at the door. He stuck his head inside and said, “Garry Young and his wife have come to the hospital with plenty of reporters, and they are now downstairs.”
“They came quite quickly!” Joshua sneered. “Looks like Vanessa has found a good partner this time!”
“And Mr. Anderson asked you where you were, and I told him,” Jaxson continued.
“Well, I’m afraid it has something to do with the Anderson family, so it’s ok to tell him,” Joshua said quietly. “I’ll have something to discuss with him when he comes.”
