“The coffin incident” became big news. The news of Leonel being forced by a man was less talked about.
As soon as the program group for “The First Challenge” returned to City J, they were surrounded by reporters and fans. Elva’s fans were ready to smash Hazel to vent their anger toward their idol.
“Hazel, the situation is not good!”
Hazel had almost no fans. Lucy rubbed her forehead. This was the first time they had encountered such a situation. They didn’t know what to do.
“It doesn’t matter, it’s all for me.”
Hazel didn’t mind at all. The more miserable she was now, the more glorious she would be in the future. She was waiting for the day when the video of Elva and Nevil was exposed. It would make a shocking reversal.
Nevil and the staff deliberately isolated Hazel, pushing her to the forefront.
Lucy turned around. This time, no one could save them. Leonel had already been surrounded by crying fans asking about his well-being.
Elva wiped her tears weakly. Aliyah pretended to comfort her. Bob was blocked at the back and was desperately pushing forward. He wanted to help but was powerless.
“Lucy, step back.”
Hazel was very calm. She was ready to welcome the sudden storm. She had been smashed in plays. She only hoped that these brainless fans could be rational and wouldn’t act too far.
Hazel adjusted her facial expression and smiled slightly like a person who was ready to sacrifice.
“Hazel, slut!”
“Yes, get out of the showbiz!”
“Vicious woman, ancient slut!”
The fans cursed. Hazel pretended not to hear them and complained in her heart. ‘Ancient slut? Then who is Mr. Andrew?’
With one person taking the lead, angry fans smashed eggs and rotten vegetables at Hazel. People in the front row even began to throw mineral water.
For a moment, Hazel couldn’t help but let out a scream no matter how calm she was when she saw all the debris.
Just then, a tall figure pushed through the crowd and rushed forward, protecting Hazel with his body. The rotten vegetables and eggs were all thrown onto his broad back.
Hazel closed her eyes. The expected pain and embarrassment did not come. She was embraced. She smelt a familiar mint fragrance.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
Baron rubbed Hazel’s hair and smiled lovingly. His low voice was pleasant to the ear. But when he faced Elva’s fans, his face was cold.
Perhaps Baron’s aura was too strong. The fans were stunned and stopped moving. The reporters immediately started taking photos. Everyone was guessing who the man next to Hazel was. He was even more handsome than Leonel.
“Baron, it’s great to have you.”
Baron’s suit jacket was covered in stains. He, who was obsessed with cleanliness, frowned slightly. He helped Hazel up and led her to the VIP passage of the airport.
Bob stood in place with a lonely face. He knew where he lost because he was always one step too late when she needed protection the most.
“Wow, Elva, who was that man just now? He was so handsome!”
Aliyah looked in the direction where the two had left enviously. She didn’t like Hazel, but just now, when Baron showed up, she was moved. Every woman wanted to be protected that way. He appeared like a Prince and saved the Princess. She suddenly felt that the two were perfect for each other.
Baron brought Hazel to the underground garage, where Dave had been waiting in. Seeing their sorry state, he was stunned.
“Don’t say anything. Let’s go back to the manor first.”
Baron took off his coat, carefully examined Hazel’s body, and said softly, “How are you? Are you hurt?”
“No, are you all right?”
He would block all the attacks, she only needed to snuggle in his arms and enjoy the peace. At this moment, Hazel felt that the little grievance she suffered was nothing. Her heart was filled with sweetness.
“Were you afraid in Gikalle Village?”
After not seeing each other for more than ten days, Hazel felt like a lifetime had passed. Perhaps this was what it meant to feel like a day passing by like a year. She held onto Baron’s hand, afraid that he would disappear again.
“When I was afraid, I looked at your photo.”
This was not a joke. This was what Hazel did. By doing so, she became at ease and more courageous.
“I didn’t leave on purpose that day.”
Baron lowered his eyes and gently planted a kiss on her cheek, which hurt a single person like Dave deeply. He suddenly felt that he was too miserable. No one cared about him and no one cared about him. It was time to find a girlfriend.
“I know. I called you and Dave, but you guys are always busy. I was worried that…”
In Hazel’s heart, the Plum Blossom Organization was the most terrifying existence. It was everywhere, and she was afraid that something would happen to Baron.
“My father died in a car accident and the news hasn’t spread. I’m afraid it will affect the stock price of the Floyd Group.”
Baron felt that he should give the little woman in front of him an explanation. When they met again this time, he suddenly found that she was more important than he had imagined.
He didn’t say how he had spent the past few days, nor did he say that he had put his mother under house arrest to hide the news…
Hazel nodded and held Baron’s hand tightly. No comfort was needed. They all knew.
An hour and a half later, they arrived at the Floyd Manor. Edie and Roger had been waiting there.
“Hazel, the news went viral on Weibo. What is going on? Leonel was raped by a man? What the hell?”
Hazel blinked and glanced at Baron. Seeing that he had no intention of explaining, she recounted what happened in Gikalle Village from beginning to end.
“How does it feel to sleep in a coffin?”
Edie laughed, asking about Elva’s reaction.
“Why don’t you go try it?”
Roger made a disdainful gesture to Edie. Edie rolled her eyes at him. The two started arguing again.
“Edie, I really can’t see any fetish of Leonel.”
Hazel thought of Edie’s next task and felt a headache. Union Club sounded dangerous. It was better for her to go instead of Edie.
“It’s dangerous for me. Isn’t it dangerous for you too?”
Edie pinched Hazel’s face. It was so smooth. She almost got addicted to it. When she sensed a cold gaze in front of her, she put down her hand in embarrassment.
It was only a matter of time before the Plum Blossom Organization got the news. Baron temporarily used his father’s substitute, but he would be exposed sooner or later.
“It’s most suitable for me to go. I met Leonel once in Hawaii. He would not suspect me.”
Edie was ready, and she was a fan of Leonel. She also expressed that she liked exciting games. Now that she thought about it, Leonel was very surprised at that time.
