Chapter 19: I Have A Gift For You
Dressed in a burgundy suit, Isaac leaned on the sports car, enjoying listening to the girls’ cheers.
All of a sudden, he raised his head and smiled slightly in Hazel’s direction.
Summer and Ariel immediately started making hearts with their hands, acting like boy crazed teenagers.
“This man is really bizarre…” Hazel said despite herself.
“What do you mean bizarre?!” Ariel said, instantly furious.
Over the next few moments, she became starry-eyed. “He’s sexy! He’s too handsome, isn’t he? Someone who can manage a burgundy suit perfectly is even sexier than the outfit itself!”
“Hazel, is this Joshua?” Summer asked, sounding boy crazy.
“No.” Hazel shook his head.
“Hazel, are you still trying to trick us?” Ariel said angrily. “Didn’t you see him laughing at you? And the prince said he would come to pick us up. Who else would he be if he weren’t him?”
“Why would I lie to you about this? Didn’t you see he is driving a sports car?” Hazel was speechless. “If it’s Joshua, where will you sit? On the roof or in the trunk?”
Ariel and Summer were speechless in an instant.
Isaac suddenly raised his index finger and made a whispering gesture.
The noisy girl dormitory building became quite instantaneously.
“Hazel Crowe,” Isaac shouted in Hazel’s direction.
Hazel was dumbstruck. Was Isaac actually here for her?
Ariel and Summer looked at her in astonishment. “Hazel Crowe, when on earth did you hook up with such a sexy, rich, handsome man?”
Before Hazel could answer, she heard Isaac continue, “I have a gift for you.”
He opened the front of the sports car, and a string of balloons flew out, floating in Hazel’s direction.
“Wow!” The girls let out a burst of envious exclamations, but their exclamations quickly changed. “Huh?”
There was a bouquet of white chrysanthemums attached under the bunch of balloons, and under the flowers, there was a white banner, written on it like a love poem, was four big black words, “Going Down in History!”
Ariel and Summer were completely dumbstruck. After a long time, they burst out laughing.
Hazel clenched her teeth as she looked at the laughing girls!
“Ha, ha, ha, I thought, thought he was going to profess his love…”
“Who would use white chrysanthemums for a confession? Hahaha, Hazel, how did you offend him?”
“How should I know!” Hazel clenched her fists in anger and stormed out the door. “If I don’t teach him a lesson today, it will be the last thing I ever do.”
Hearing the sound of laughter from the girls’ dormitory building, Isaac was confused and couldn’t come to his senses.
It was clear in his mind that he had prepared red roses, the banner had also been red and had a written confession of love. How could it have changed so suddenly?
Suddenly, Joshua’s face flashed through his mind, and he immediately knew this was his doing.
“That bastard!” He cursed in a low, angry voice.
“Isaac Anderson!” Hazel rushed down, her face full of anger. “What have I done to you? Why are you so mean to me?!”
Isaac reached out awkwardly, trying to explain, “Hazel, listen to my explanation…”
Hazel became cold and grabbed Isaac’s arm and gave it a hard twist.
Isaac was careless, and by the time he could react, he had been pressed against the sports car by Hazel. She twisted his arm behind his back to prevent him from struggling.
Isaac didn’t know whether to laugh or cry now. He originally came to express his love, but he had made such a big joke, and the person he was expressing his love had an angry hold on.
It turned out that Hazel was really good at hitting people and that she was so good at apprehending people. She must have been taught that when she was a child.
“Hazel, this is a misunderstanding…” Isaac was defenseless.
But before he could explain it, he heard a stern voice saying, “Whose car is this? There’s no parking here, don’t you know?”
The one scolding him was Rose, the chaperone in the girl’s dorm.
Isaac answered helplessly, “Mine.”
“Does this look like a place for you to park your car? You are an adult. Why are you so ignorant…”? She began to lecture him incessantly.
Hazel let go of Isaac with a sigh of relief when she heard Rose starting to give her parking spot lecture.
“I will leave right now.” Isaac awkwardly opened the car door.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Rose grabbed him by the shoulders and said, “Do you think this is where you can come whenever you feel like it? You have to pay for a ticket…”
Hazel felt very relieved to see Isaac in such a mess. She grunted coldly and went back to the dormitory.
In the dorm, Ariel and Summer had laughed so hard that they couldn’t even speak coherently.
“… Haz… Hazel,” Ariel rubbed her cheeks which were stiff from laughing. “That whole situation has just been posted on Facebook. Hahaha, a handsome, rich man who used white chrysanthemums and poems to express his love. The rumors will circulate fast about this!”
“Hahaha, so many interesting emojis! I want to save them!” Summer moved the mouse quickly.
“What?” Hazel could not help but say mournfully. “I don’t want to be famous at all. Besides, it’s such a weird incident…”
“Rest assured,” Summer said. “There’s no mention of you. But this is probably going to be a funny story in our school for at least a year.”
Hazel was heartbroken and felt very depressed.
“But Hazel, who on Earth was he?” Summer asked curiously.
“He seems to be a friend of Joshua’s. His name is Isaac Anderson,” Hazel replied.
“Isaac Anderson?!” Summer and Ariel’s eyes lit up.
“Is he famous?” Hazel asked in surprise.
“Of course!” Summer said.
“He is the second-generation of a rich family. He has a low profile and is said to be the most handsome of any eligible bachelor of the second-generation. I didn’t expect him to be even more handsome than his picture! It turns out he is rather sexy! How charming!”
Hazel’s face turned dark instantly. She did not have a good impression of him.

“Forget it.” Ariel warned, “Summer, we need to get Hazel dressed quickly. It’s almost noon!”
Hazel howled helplessly. “Hey! How can you even think about that and still remember it!?”
Rose finally finished lecturing Isaac and then made him pay the ticket before she allowed him to drive away.
Isaac was so depressed that he took out his phone fretfully and dialed Joshua’s number.
“Mr. Anderson, did you enjoy yourself?” Joshua asked coolly.
Isaac was wild with rage when he yelled, “Joshua, you are so cruel!”
“Oh, I’m flattered.” Joshua’s voice was still calm, his eyes twinkling. “Isaac, don’t provoke her.”
Anyone could but not Isaac.
If it were someone else, he wouldn’t take them seriously or treat them like a rival. But there was that little detail of Isaac being engaged.
