Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Hazel Crowe frowned because of the deafening music in the surroundings.

She passed through the crowd under the dim light and glanced around at the faces of the men and women who were indulging themselves on the dance floor, and quickly looked away.

"Hi cutie, come to have a drink. It's on me." A drunken man said as he got in Hazel's way.

"Get away!" Hazel said coldly, her voice full of impatience.

The drunken man was very disgruntled. He reached out one of his arms to stop her.

Seeing his arm in front of her, Hazel suddenly grabbed his wrist and strongly twisted it.

"Ouch!" The man yelled, but his voice quickly disappeared in the loud music.

Hazel grunted and let go of his wrist. The man looked at her with fear in his eyes and dared not go toward her again.

After solving that situation, Hazel continued to squeeze into the crowd. She came here looking for someone.

Her dorm roommate was drunk and called Hazel to pick her up, but Hazel looked around in the bar and did not find her.

"Hazel!" A familiar voice called.

Hazel turned back and found Ariel Ross was calling to her.

"Have you found Summer?" Hazel asked.

Ariel said in a panic, "I heard that someone saw Summer being taken to the men's room by a few

guys..."

"Show me the way!" Hazel said in a hurry.

The two of them rushed towards the men's room. Ariel was still worried, "I heard that there are four or five guys. Should we call the police?"

"It will be too late by the time the police arrive!" Hazel thought for a while and said, "I'll go in first. You wait for my signal and then take Summer!"

"What about you? No, it's too dangerous!" Ariel quickly shook her head.

"Relax, I know I can't beat all of them, I should be fine escaping from them, though," Hazel said slowly.

The two arrived at the door of the men's room. Ariel had no choice but to agree with what Hazel proposed even though she had a bad feeling.

Hazel looked into the men's room and saw a man with his back to her, starting to take off his suit. In front of him was her drunk roommate, Summer Lynch!

Hazel's expression turned angry as she rushed in!

"Stop!" She yelled as she punched the man's back.

Joshua Denmark heard the movement behind him. He leaned sideways and dodged Hazel's fist, and then grabbed her wrist!

"What are you doing?!" Joshua said. There was a hint of anger in his calm eyes.

Hazel tried to pull her fist back, but it was being held tight by the man's hand. She could not move her hand, so Hazel violently pushed Joshua back against the wall and immediately shouted, "Ariel!"

Ariel rushed in, grabbed Summer, and dragged her towards the door of the men's room. "Go!" Seeing them leave, Hazel let out a deep breath. Hazel was still trying to pull her hand back, but Joshua still had a tight grip.

"Let go!" Hazel said with a little panic and anger in her voice.

Hazel knew some self-defense techniques, which were only useful on one or two normal guys, but the man standing in front of her this time was by no means normal.

She had to find a way to escape. She came here to rescue someone, not to sacrifice herself.

"Hey lady, don't you think you owe me an explanation?" Joshua questioned coldly.

A while ago, Joshua came to the men's room and saw a few guys getting ready to bully a drunk girl. He threatened them, and they left, but the girl had puked all over his suit.

Just as Joshua was taking off his coat, he was attacked by Hazel.

"Explanation?" Hazel shouted, "Explain to a scum who bullies women as you do? Guys like you only want to do dirty things when a girl gets drunk! Are you only thinking with your manhood?"

Joshua was a bit stunned, and then he knew she had misunderstood him.

Joshua tightened his fingers and said with mockery, "Do you really think I need to get a girl drunk to lay my hands on her?"

The pain in her wrist got worse. Hazel glared at Joshua but didn't understand what he meant.

"So, what?" Hazel said angrily, "Do you think that you have such a good-looking face and you can fool every woman in the world?"

Joshua was a little bit angry. Although this girl was not bad, her IQ was a problem.

He was about to explain to her, but now he suddenly wanted to tease her. Joshua used some strength, and Hazel spun around.

She put Joshua against the wall a moment ago, but now they switched positions.

At her back was the cold wall, and in front of her was Joshua, who was smiling with satisfaction.

He punched his hand on the wall and leaned his body against her.

"What...What the hell are you doing?" Hazel was annoyed. She was starting to get a bit scared.

In this case of Kabe-Don, Hazel was not appreciative.

"You abused me for some ridiculous reason. Now I want you to see, I can bully a girl who is not drunk." Joshua twitched his lips and smirked. "You are not drunk. And I can still bully you."

Hazel was beginning to panic, "You...hey!"

When he put his lips on her lips, the soft touch made him get a bit carried away. Joshua almost forgot he only wanted to tease her.

In the sudden attack, Hazel's eyes widened, a shocked expression came across her face.

The next moment, her fingers were on his belt.

Joshua froze when he felt her grasping at his waist. He looked at her in disbelief.

This girl...actually untied his belt?

While Joshua deep in thought about if she set him up. Hazel knew now was her chance! Hazel lifted her leg and kicked towards his groin!

Joshua had to dodge the attack, but Hazel used all her strength to pushed him aside and run quickly towards the door.

"Freeze!" Joshua's face turned red with rage.

This badass girl actually began running out the door with his belt.

Even though she had made it to the door of the men's room, Hazel actually stopped and turned to look at him.

"Give it back to me." Joshua looked less than pleased.

"You can just take off your pants to catch me for the belt!" Hazel swayed the belt in the air, looking entertained.

Joshua looked at her coldly, stepping toward her. But his expression changed suddenly, he had to use both of his hands to hold his pants up.

It turned out the cunning girl not only took his belt but also unzipped his pants. He had no way to chase her in this condition.

"Alright, I take back what I said. You are a badass bitch with some tricks."

Hazel was enjoying watching him squirm.

"This is a lesson for you!" Hazel said, "Be prepared to take your last breath the next time I see you!"

Hazel arrogantly walked out of the men's room, but when the door shut, Hazel felt beaten. Her beautiful face was full of anger and frustration.

Hazel clenched her fists as she had never come across such a big loss before!

She went there to rescue her roommate, but her first kiss had been stolen. She had to play a small trick to get out of the situation and use a few threats which could prove nothing.

Hazel really wanted to head back inside and beat Joshua, but...she was no match for him in terms of power!

Hazel was still very aware of the situation. She had to swallow the less-than-perfect victory. All in all, Summer was fine.

Hazel hurried out of the bar to see Ariel holding the drunken Summer on the nearby corner.

"Hazel! Here!" Ariel yelled.

Hazel walked over, and she let out a sigh of relief, "You guys are still here?"

"I was worried about you." Ariel added, "Are you ok?"

The overbearing and sudden kiss of the man instantly popped into her head. Hazel's fingers shook with fury.

"...I'm fine," Hazel said in an unhappy tone.

What had happened had already happened. Nothing would change even if Ariel knew about it, so she decided to keep it to herself.

"That's good." Ariel relaxed. Suddenly, her eyes fell on Hazel's hands. She asked with curiosity, "Hazel, why are you holding a belt? What happened? Whose belt is that?"

Hazel was embarrassed.

Her mind was in chaos, and she was still holding on to the belt!

"Nobody's." Hazel quickly placed the belt on the roof of a nearby Maybach. She quickly ran over to hold Summer in her arms and diverted the topic, "Go ahead, I will explain it to you later."

Ariel looked at her suspiciously, but she didn't push the topic.

Joshua was still in the men's room, hiding in a stall. His face was pale.

He was never treated like that before. That cunning girl took advantage of him.

"Mr. President," Jaxson Hunk knocked on the door of the stall and said, "I've procured a new suit for you." Joshua opened the door and took the pants from Jaxson.

Jaxson was waiting outside in a bit of surprise. Joshua actually sent him to buy pants for him, so what happened to his original pants?

Jaxson could not refrain from imagination. In a place like a bar, especially in the washroom...Was the President having an affair with a blonde and meet in this place?

Joshua had always been very self-disciplined, and there was no scandal around him. Jaxson had always been very curious about what kind of woman could catch Joshua' eye.

After changing clothes, Joshua came out with a gloomy face, "This is a top secret! You never saw me in this place!"

Joshua had never felt so ashamed.

"Aye, sir," Jaxson answered immediately.

Joshua was a little annoyed as he was walking to his car.

Just after Joshua opened the car door, Jaxson suddenly said, "Mr. President, there seems to be something on your roof."

Joshua frowned for a second.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank. He quickly took the thing off the car roof.

It was his belt...placed on the roof.

Joshua twitched his lips.

Today he lost a game to that sly girl. He didn't intend to pursue the situation. After all, it was a misunderstanding.

But that sneaky little thing put his belt on his car, was she deliberately provoking him?

"Jaxson, " Joshua said with a mild tone, "Go find out who put that thing on top of my car."

"Aye, sir." Jaxson was a little confused but agreed.

***

Back in the dormitory, Hazel didn't sleep well. She was awakened by the noise in the dormitory early in the morning that day.

"Ariel, help me sign up!"

"Why don't you do that yourself?"

"I have a headache. "

"Look at that! Who went out and got drunk! Now you know what a headache feels like? Remember that you are still a senior student with graduation ahead! Next time, don't expect Hazel and I to go pick you up..."

"What's going on?" Hazel grabbed her pillow and threw it, "Don't you guys know I'm still sleeping?"

Ariel was sitting at the table playing on her computer. She snorted and picked up the pillow from the floor, "Hazel, don't forget it was me who signed you up!"

"Signed me up for what?" Hazel got up from her bed and stumbled to go to the bathroom.

Ariel looked at her in an odd way and looked back at the computer screen, "You don't know? It's been very hot lately! We are signing up for my Prince Charming, who is now seeking a surrogate mother for his children. You don't thank me!"

Hazel was stunned first and snapped out of it instantly.

She hurriedly rushed to Ariel's side, grabbed the mouse, and said, "Oh my goodness, you signed me up for that? Count me out, please!"

"Just relax!" Ariel reached out her hand and patted Hazel's back, "You are just a follower in the background. I am the drama queen!"

"Let Summer go with you! I want no part of this!" Hazel said reluctantly.

"Summer is now officially my love rival!" Ariel said seriously, "I shall show no mercy upon my rival even when she is my roommate!"

"Since when have you two become rivals?" Hazel was confused.

"Summer also wants to sign up! Whoever wants to steal my Prince Charming from me is my rival!" Ariel grit her teeth.

Seeing Hazel's incomprehensible look, Ariel said, "Oh my Hazel, you have no idea what I'm talking about?" Hazel shook her head.

"It's this preliminary selection for the surrogate mother!" Ariel pointed at the computer screen with a horny look, "This time, it's Joshua, President and CEO of Denmark Family Group, who is sending the invite for the selection! He is rich, low-profiled, handsome, and no scandal around him,"

"You think he is handsome before you even met him?" Hazel said silently, "Maybe he is old and ugly!"

Hazel heard the name of Joshua Denmark before. The Denmark Family Group was not low-key, but Joshua rarely appeared in front of the media, so few people knew what he looked like.

However, almost everyone who had seen him praised everything about him, including his looks. So, in the eyes of his fans, such as Ariel, Joshua had gradually become a very beautiful legend.

But the fact that such a low-key person actually held such a high-profiled activity to choose a surrogate mother for his children surprised Hazel.

"My Prince Charming is by no means old and ugly!" Ariel argued.

"...I don't care. Just help me cancel the registration right away." Hazel was somewhat irritated.

"Hazel, let's forget about how Joshua looks like. He's really generous!" Ariel proudly praised him, "Whoever participates in the preliminary selection only has to get a few photographs taken. Whether she got selected or not, she could receive a grand from Denmark Family Group! Think twice before you cancel something like that!"

"Photographs?" Hazel frowned.

"Of course! Otherwise, how can my Prince Charming know what his candidates look like?"

"Can we just provide our photos?"

"Do you have any idea about technology these days? Photos provided by participants can be altered! Relax, my Prince Charming isn't going to do anything with photos shot by his staff."

Hazel still did not show any interest in it. She quickly shook her head and said, "I'd rather not. What if I got selected..."

"Hazel, you are such a bold girl. You are just one step away from my list of rivals!" Ariel stared at her with a stunned look, "Do you know how many people have signed up for this preliminary selection? It is said that there are nearly 100,000 people! One out of 100,000, do you think you got that luck?"

"100,000 people!" Hazel was a bit shocked. She said, "One grand each person, that makes...one hundred million? Holy, rich people really have a lot of nerve. This is not for choosing a surrogate mother. This is choosing an imperial concubine!"

"Better than choosing an Imperial Concubine, ok?" Ariel said with her worship, "You don't get paid winning a selection for Imperial Concubine! But my Prince Charming is really generous and considerate. He really wants to give his fans some pocket money! Do you see a guy that nice every day?"

"In the end, you're in for that thousand dollars..." Summer stated from her bed.

"Aren't you?" Hazel looked at her strangely.

"I'm in for that one in one hundred thousand." Summer rubbed her temples which were still pulsing with intoxication, and said, "Isn't the odds better than buying a lottery ticket?"

"You said that your boyfriend just dumped you." Ariel was alerted and said, "And you went drinking yesterday. How could you be over that so quickly?"

"It is because of losing a love that I need Prince Charming to help me out see the light," Summer said seriously.

Hazel admired her spirit and thought, "That explains why Ariel sees you as a rival."

"However, the eyes of the Prince are too picky," Summer said with her face down on her bed.

"Yeah. There are still re-selections after the preliminary selection. But so many participants, none of them has even passed the preliminary selection yet!" Ariel sighed.

"So, you just need to give up and make room for the eligible."

"Why don't you give up?"

Hazel had enough with the two of them. But since this thing had nothing to do with her, she frowned and said, "I don't want his thousand dollars. Now you just..."

Before she even finished, she heard a boy standing downstairs and shouting loudly, "Kyla! Kyla Lee! I love you! I can't sleep without you..."

The three girls in the dorm room were suddenly all back on the same team. Ariel was furious and said, "Shit, that scum Derek Sanchez is here again! Hazel, wait here. I will kick his ass!"

"Hey..." Hazel wanted to stop her, but Ariel had rushed into the bathroom and was carrying out a bucket of water, heading towards the balcony. Hazel sighed, "I have nothing to do with this..."

"This is no longer something between you and him." Summer crawled off the bed with a serious look on her face, "Derek has evolved from disgusting you to disgusting the entire dormitory. I'm with Ariel this time!"

Hazel put her hand up to her forehead.

"And, thank you for last night," Summer said as she was filling a cup of water.

"My pleasure. But please don't go to that kind of place in the future." Images from last night came to her mind. When she recalled Joshua's smirk, Hazel couldn't help but frown.

"I know." Summer turned her head back and asked, "Did anything happen to you?"

"...Nothing," Hazel said in depression.

"That's good," Summer breathed a sigh of relief, "Ariel said that you brushed your teeth for half an hour last night. I thought someone would hurt you."

Hazel was even more depressed, "I didn't brush for half an hour..."

There was a noise of water going over the balcony, followed by an angry scream from Derek downstairs, "Who is it? Who did that to me?"

"It's me!" Ariel shouted, "Derek, you are such a pervert! What are you doing here this early in the morning? You can save your energy and just get out of here!"

"I'm not looking for you..." Derek was really outraged, but his face went soft the moment he saw Hazel appear on the balcony.

"Get lost!" Ariel yelled at him, "Next time, you will get more water if you are still that thirsty!" Derek was downstairs feeling helpless. He grunted coldly and disappeared.

Suddenly, the entire dormitory building was full of applause and bravos.

Hazel was about to criticize Ariel, but she could not do that when the whole building was encouraging Ariel's action.

"That guy is still afraid of you." Ariel sighed, "He looked at you like a mouse looking at a cat."

"Do you want to be afraid of me too?" Hazel asked with a mild smile.

"Hell no." Ariel hurriedly shook her head.

"Then cancel my registration already!" Hazel gasped her teeth.

"You still remember that? How can I cancel the online registration?" Ariel said, smiling with tears. She thought for a while and said, "Didn't you say that your mother's birthday is coming soon? Just use this money to buy her a gift."

Ariel hit the jackpot. Hazel was thinking of that too.

"Just think about it, you will just be accompanying me in the preliminary selection like an overseer." Ariel said like a wounded mascot, "You don't want me to go there alone, right? It is said to be a selection for a surrogate mother, but who knows what kind of trap it could be! If you are not around, I won't have any help if it is dangerous! Come on, my dear Hazel..."

"It's OK!" Seeing that Ariel actually began to cajole her, Hazel had to say, "Just this once! Next time you will know what fear is!"

"Uh-huh!" Ariel rejoiced and promised.
