Chapter 379
\nWolf President Hooks Up novel Chapter 379<\/p>\n
Bradley went to fix her more dishes with his apron still on. What a good househusband!<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Hazel walked idly to the dining table. Having just washed her face, her skin looked like a peeled white egg, fair and tender.<\/p>\n
Looking over at her, Bradley was taken by surprise. The spoon was held stiffly in his hand, and some soup spilled out.<\/p>\n
“Hey! Don’t make such a mess even if this isn’t your house! Look at what you spilled, idiot.”<\/p>\n
Hazel frowned and shouted, stomping her feet.<\/p>\n
Bradley had a sudden urge to smooth her eyebrows with his hand.<\/p>\n
Why was a pretty girl always frowning and roaring like that?<\/p>\n
“What? Oh! I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. I wasn’t looking.”<\/p>\n
Bradley looked down at the soup and apologized, picking up a wiper to clean it up.<\/p>\n
Hazel sat there carelessly, crossing her legs and pouting,<\/p>\n
“Where has your eyes been? What were you looking at if you were not looking at the soup then?”<\/p>\n
Looking at you of course! These words almost slipped out of Bradley’s mouth.<\/p>\n
“Well, I … I was distracted….”<\/p>\n
“Hurry up and bring me the meal. Stop babbling.”<\/p>\n
Hazel tapped on her chopsticks like a lord.<\/p>\n
Bradley flinched and sighed.<\/p>\n
Oh, crap.<\/p>\n
As an outstanding student from the police academy, he was ordered around by a little girl.<\/p>\n
It sucked.<\/p>\n
Bradley served all the dishes and washed his hands before sitting down.<\/p>\n
Hazel dug in ravenously and asked<\/p>\n
“Wow! You cooked all these?”<\/p>\n
Bradley rolled his eyes and said, “Of course! Is there a third person in this house? Who else could it be?”<\/p>\n
“Not bad, Bradley, not bad at all. It’s really delicious! As a good cat you can catch the rat, and as a good househusband you can also cook! Remarkable!”<\/p>\n
Hazel had all her attention on the dishes so that she barely looked at Bradley.<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Bradley was fluttered. He beamed with great delight, fixed his collar and said proudly.<\/p>\n
“It takes you long enough to find out! I have always been a good man, ok? Wait, what did you just say? A cat? You called me a cat?!”<\/p>\n
Hazel was chewing the pork with her mouth tilted and some juice on her chin.<\/p>\n
“Aren’t you? You’re a cop. Isn’t it all about catching bad guys? Don’t you know it’s a metaphor? In some cartoons, aren’t the cops featured as cats and the bad guys as rats? This is a fair metaphor!”<\/p>\n
Bradley was brought up short. He could only say to himself.<\/p>\n
That was rubbish.<\/p>\n
But he was not going to bicker with her.<\/p>\n
“Well? With such good dishes, shouldn’t we have some wine?”<\/p>\n
Hazel beamed at Bradley.<\/p>\n
Her twinkling eyes looked as if they could talk, taking Bradley’s breath away.<\/p>\n
His heart was beating faster.<\/p>\n
It was as if someone was hitting his heart like a ping-pong ball.<\/p>\n
Bradley and Hazel looked at each other for a little longer.<\/p>\n
Bradley’s eyes glazed as he looked at her, his mouth slightly opened.<\/p>\n
Hazel raised her eyebrows and waved her hand in front of Bradley’s eyes, shouting.<\/p>\n
“Hey, are you dumb? I was just talking to you! Did you get your brain squeezed today?”<\/p>\n
Only then did Bradley come to himself, his cheeks slightly flushed.<\/p>\n
“Wine? No, you’re not going to be an alcoholic. A woman shouldn’t be drinking at all.”<\/p>\n
Hazel’s request gave him a headache.<\/p>\n
The other day, he was taken to Y Nightclub by Haze, but they came across her ex-boyfriend called Lee or something. Since then, something was wrong about her.<\/p>\n
She insisted that he take her to the seaside in the middle of the night, where they were almost frozen to death.<\/p>\n
And she insisted that they sit on the beach, hold each other, and watch the freaking stars.<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Come on, it was a bit cloudy that night. There weren’t any stars, not even a single one in the sky.<\/p>\n
And the next day he caught a cold and sneezed all day.<\/p>\n
A drunken woman was ridiculous.<\/p>\n
He absolutely couldn’t let her drink again!<\/p>\n
He didn’t reckon himself capable of handling the drunken Hazel.<\/p>\n
But after a few rounds of “negotiations”, Hazel opened a few bottles of beer after all.<\/p>\n
“Here’s to our youth! What are you waiting for? Cheers!”<\/p>\n
Hazel’s eyes widened as she roared at Bradley, who was still not sure about this. But in the end, he had to compromise.<\/p>\n
She wasn’t drinking from a glass but a bottle instead. Good for her.<\/p>\n
He was so curious about her past.<\/p>\n
“Oh, my phone. I have to take it.”<\/p>\n
With the beer bottle still in her hand, she ran to the coffee table, picked up her phone from under some magazines. But she frowned before answering it.<\/p>\n
It was Lucas. That bastard….<\/p>\n
Why was he calling?<\/p>\n
Hazel didn’t want to talk to him. Even his name disgusted her. That bastard cheated on her for two women, two at a time! Damn it!<\/p>\n
“Pick it up! What are you waiting for? The dishes are turning cold!”<\/p>\n
Bradley took a few dishes to the kitchen and heated them up with the microwave oven.<\/p>\n
Hazel hesitated for a little longer and finally picked it up.<\/p>\n
“Hello?”<\/p>\n
When hearing Hazel’s voice, Lucas was so excited that he almost bit his lips.<\/p>\n
He got a bit carried away.<\/p>\n
“It’s me!”<\/p>\n
“Yes, I know. Go ahead.”<\/p>\n
“Are you going to Iceland?”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
“What?” Hazel frowned and became impatient, “Are you kidding me? Go find another woman! I’m not interested!”<\/p>\n
Hazel was about to hang up the phone when she heard Lucas shouting desperately,<\/p>\n
“Elaine is missing! Aren’t you going to Iceland and looking for your best friend?”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Hazel froze. She placed her phone back to her ear and screamed.<\/p>\n
“What did you just say, Lucas? What happened to Elaine? If you dare to lie to me, I swear that you’ll be sorry! How dare you curse my friend?”<\/p>\n
Lucas heaved a sigh of relief. Thank god she didn’t hang up the phone.<\/p>\n
“How can I lie to you? Elaine is indeed missing in Iceland! Emmett has already gone there. Oliver is also anxious. He has arranged a plane leaving for Iceland immediately to look for her. Are you going?”<\/p>\n
Lucas finished his sentences in one breath, waiting for Hazel’s reply.<\/p>\n
But there was a long silence.<\/p>\n
“Hello? Are you still there? Are you going or not? Hello?”<\/p>\n
Hazel suddenly burst out crying<\/p>\n
“Elaine! My Elaine! Elaine….”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1779","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
