Chasing The Fierce Heiress

He chuckled. “I’m really fine. It’s water.” She froze and looked quickly at his back. Sure enough, it was intact, and his suit was wet. She was relieved, but soon she was filled with rage!

She passed Alexander.

Glaring at Allen, who had been overpowered lying limp on the ground, she walked over and kicked him several times. “Bastard!”

Alexander stopped her, his eyes a little deep. “Enough, Heather. Let’s ask the bodyguards to take him to the police station. This time, he won’t get out of it anymore!”

He had splashed water this time, but there was no guarantee what he would splash next time. Alexander wouldn’t be lenient to Allen anymore.

Heather nodded. After venting her anger, she suddenly felt it was strange. Neither she nor Alexander had overpowered Allen just now. Who had done that for them?

She looked up, and her eyes instantly widened in surprise. “Dad, mom? Are you back?”

It was Joshua who had just overpowered Allen.

“You’ve finally seen us,” Hazel said with a sad face. “You really forgot about your parents when you had a fiancé.”

Heather’s face was full of shame. “No, no, I didn’t….”

However, she knew Hazel loved to tease her, so she directly pulled Alexander over to them. “Mom, Dad, let me introduce…”

The shock she had gotten had been tempered by the delight of her sudden encounter with them. She introduced them to each other with a happy face.

Alexander called Joshua and Hazel in a very natural way, “Dad, mom.”

Joshua looked Alexander up and down. Although Allen had thrown water, he was satisfied that Alexander had risked his life to stand in front of Heather in such an emergency without knowing what Allen had thrown.

“You’re great,” Joshua said peacefully. This was kind of his acceptance of Alexander.

Alexander understood what he was talking about. “This is what I should do.”

Then he promised, “I chose Heather, and I will protect her with my life.”

“Oh, that’s great,” Hazel said with a smile. “You made Heather forget about her parents. You’re fine.”

“Mom, I didn’t forget you,” Heather said as she came to her.

Then she spoke softly like a spoiled girl, “I came out today to get a gift for you. I wanted to surprise you on your wedding anniversary!”

“A gift? Surprise?” Hazel looked vaguely at her stomach. “You got pregnant?”

Heather’s face darkened. “No, we have been well-behaved!”

What the hell was her mother thinking?

Hazel sighed regretfully. “What’s a pleasant surprise? Haven’t you just let me down? I thought I was going to have grandchildren.”

Heather covered her face with her hands. Well, she couldn’t handle her increasingly mischievous mother.

“When are you going to give me a baby grandchild so that I can play?” Hazel asked with anticipation.

Heather was angry. She looked at Joshua for help. “Dad…”

Joshua put his arm around Hazel’s waist and whispered in her ear, “We won’t have time for the next two years.”

“How come we don’t have the time?” Hazel asked in puzzlement.

“You forgot? Our schedule is full,” he explained peacefully. “We’re going to the Grand Canyon in Country M, Great Barrier Reef in Country A, South Island in Country X… If you want grandchildren, we can’t go to any of these places.”

She looked annoyed. “You’re right!”

“We don’t have to push them. If they want to have a baby, let them have it and keep it by themselves. We’ll just come home and visit them some time so that we won’t have to mess up our schedule,” he whispered.

She was completely convinced. “Yeah, you’re right.”

Heather gave Joshua a sly thumbs-up. Sure enough, the only person who could control her was her dad.

“Let’s go,” Joshua gently put his arm around Hazel. “Alex has just proposed, so I’m sure they’ll have a lot to tell each other.” “Mmm!” Hazel blinked and agreed. “Heather, we’re leaving. You go on!” As they hurried away, Heather’s cheeks turned a little red. The proposal had been over, what else could they go on doing…

Alexander took her hand softly, his eyes looking apologetic. “Heather, I’m sorry, I didn’t expect this to happen today.”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

She lightly shook her head. “It’s okay. Alex, as long as we’re okay, it’s fine. And I think it will be our most memorable proposal.”

It was a scary proposal, but it was also very exciting.

Alexander looked at her quietly. “Are you sure you don’t mind?”

“You bet!” she said, standing on her toes and kissing his lips.

***

Soon, it was Hazel and Joshua’ wedding anniversary. Accompanied by Alexander, Heather went straight home immediately after getting her diploma.

Randy threw Hazel and Joshua a party. When Heather arrived, she saw many people she knew.

They were her grandparents, uncles, and so on. Seeing them, Heather was very happy in her heart.

Heather took Alexander with her and introduced him to her relatives and friends. They had all heard what had happened when he proposed and were very pleased with him.

However, Heather was somewhat surprised when she saw Simon.

A delicate, tender girl was following Simon shyly, but her eyes looked at Sebastian with an adoring expression.

That look… showed there was a story between them! Heather was instantly gossipy.

“Uncle Simon!” Heather came to Simon and called. Her eyes fell curiously on the girl beside him. “Who is she?”

Simon introduced but looked somewhat embarrassed. “This is your cousin, Elizabeth King. Liz, this is your cousin, Heather Denmark.”

“Uncle, you do have an illegitimate daughter,” Heather was surprised and whispered.

“Ahem,” said he with a more embarrassed expression, “What’s wrong with an illegitimate daughter? She’s my daughter too. You must take care of her later.”

“Of course!” she agreed with a smile.

He frowned. “By the way, where are your parents?”

She looked out the gate. “They should be here in a minute. My mom took my dad to try a kind of snack in the morning. It won’t take long.”

He said with a wicked smile, “I don’t think so! I guess both of them will definitely…”

Before he could finish the sentence, they heard a commotion outside.

“Damn it! Hazel and Joshua are gone again!” someone shouted.

Helplessly, Heather and Simon put their hands on their foreheads.

Alexander was surprised. “Again?”

“Yeah,” Heather said with a wry smile. “My parents have done a lot of things like that.. Hence, when I was a kid, I really wanted to find someone to elope with me.”

A smile curved Alexander’s lip. Maybe he could learn from them?

Everyone took out their phones. Sure enough, there were broadcast messages.

“We’re going to Country R for sashimi! It is said that this is the best season to taste it. You don’t have to wait for us! We love you!”

On the plane, Hazel was a little embarrassed. “Honey, we’re gone again, so the party is going to be a mess, isn’t it?”

Joshua chuckled. “How is that possible? They should have been used to it, shouldn’t they?”

“Yes,” she said with a smile.

He gently took her hand and whispered, his eyes soft and affectionate, “Honey, I love you forever.”
