My Sweetheart -
Chapter 278 Don’t Let Me Down
The next day, Kathy woke up at noon, and her ankles were cold. Joseph had just put on medicine for her. She rolled over and opened her eyes, and the spot next to her was empty.
But the memories from last night echoed clearly in her mind.
The corners of her mouth drifted upward, the soreness from her body reminded her of last night's madness.
At that moment, a footstep came from outside the door, and Kathy subconsciously hid under the blanket.
She was blushing red like a tomato.
Joseph had already sensed that she was awake, and his gentle voice sounded above her head, "It's time for lunch."
The blanket was taken down, and Kathy looked at him with an innocent expression.
Kathy's expression was so innocent that it was hard to resist.
He lowered his head and kissed the ardent red little person that he loved.
Kathy stared at him for a long while before she got used to it.
Joseph had already backed away before she was satisfied with it.
"Want me to carry you down?" He raised an eyebrow.
Kathy was embarrassed and immediately got out of bed to put on her shoes.
But she didn't notice the injury on her foot, and when she stepped on the floor, it hurt like hell!
"It seems that I still have to carry you." After that, Joseph picked her up across the room.
Kathy looked downwards at her injured ankle. Her small face buried in Joseph's arms.
"When did you put the medicine on for me?"
"Morning."
"I can walk on my own."
There were at the Booth family mansion, it was not like they were at the Joseph Bay where there was only the two of them.
"I'm worried," Joseph said coldly.
"Nothing to be worried, I'll walk slowly." Kathy looked at Joseph expectantly.
But he was unmoved.
When he came to the living room, Zack Booth had also just come from the secondary Building
The Booth Family Mansion had two buildings, the main building was mainly for entertaining guests, and the second building was where Zack lived.
Kathy was temporarily living in the main building.
"What's going on here?" Zack looked at his granddaughter being held and frowned.
"Mrs Joseph sprained her foot last night and has trouble walking," Joseph replied.
"I'll have the doctor come over and take a look." With that, Zack had ordered the butler.
"Grandpa, no, no, I'm fine."
Kathy sat down. It was just a small injury.
Zack was so nervous, "We need to have the doctor look at it, so don't go back today until your foot is better."
Kathy looked at Joseph, but he didn't object.
After lunch, Zack made the unprecedented move of asking Joseph to accompany him for a walk in the garden, while Kathy had to rest in her room because of her foot injury. "Grandpa." Joseph was holding Zack while walking.
The golf course on the back hill had just been cleaned. Zack sat down.
"How's the investigation into yesterday's incident going?"
"Grandfather, the police investigated the theft of the sapphire. The culprits did come in the castle and tried to pin the blame on the Booth family."
But so far, there were no more clues.
"Bastards! Our Booth family has not been in City N all these years, let alone made any enemies, so how could there be such a ridiculous thing!" "Those people, are they targeting you?" Zack looked at Joseph with a sharp gaze.
"Grandfather, I will uncover the person behind the scheme." Joseph frowned. "In three days, I want results. It was my granddaughter's wedding yesterday, and look what all the fuss have done!" Zack didn't lose his temper in front of Kathy because he didn't want her to be sad.
But in the face of the others, he couldn't hide his anger!
'I will do it.'
"Since my granddaughter has chosen you, I'll trust you, Joseph, don't let me down," Zack said in a deep voice.
He was acquiescing to the marriage because of Kathy.
But if Joseph dared to do anything to harm Kathy, he wouldn't stand idly by.
Joseph nodded, "Grandfather, I will take good care of Kathy."
"Have a gold game with me."
...
Until late in the evening, Joseph and grandfather had not returned. Kathy went to the golf course.
Zack's favourite sport was golf, and when the castle was renovated, the backside was specifically built for the course.
Seeing hole-in-one from Joseph time to time, Zack's was overflowed with praise, "You're not bad kid, pretty professional."
"I used to play a lot a few years ago, just as an amateur, so naturally I can't be compared to Grandpa."
Zack laughed, "I'm old, and now it's all about you, young people."
Joseph helped Zack to sit down, and Kathy was coming from not far away.
It was a relief to see the two getting along well.
Zack saw right through Kathy's emotion, "What, you got worried?"
Kathy smiled, "Grandpa, I didn't."
"Don't run around if your feet are uncomfortable." Joseph saw Kathy walked in a struggling manner and frowned.
"It's okay, it's just a little sore."
It wasn't so severe that I couldn't even walk.
Joseph held her wrist, "Grandfather, you should be tired today, let's rest."
"Well, you guys go home too."
In the evening, Alexia sent a message that she would return to Country A, so they agreed to have dinner tonight.
The restaurant was at the hotel where Alexia was staying. Kathy recalled that she didn't seem to have seen Alexia since yesterday afternoon.
"Kathy, did Joseph replace out what happened yesterday?" Alexia asked with concern. She had witnessed the accident yesterday.
Kathy shook her head, "No clues yet."
"I'm concerned that it's about you, you're now the granddaughter of the Booth family, a status that everyone covets." Alexia reminded.
Kathy didn't think too much about it, she also understood the power of the Booth family. After all, the Booth family was not originally developed in City N, if it was against her... The only person she could think of was Herbert.
However, there was almost no news about her lately, and even Billy Hilton was much more low-key.
"By the way, why didn't I see you last night," Kathy asked.
Alexia paused when she heard the question, her face expression was a bit unnatural.
"Johnson took me away." She whispered.
"Then what? What happened?" Kathy had a bad feeling about this.
"Nothing happened, just catching up on old times."
"You still can't put him down," Kathy said with certainty.
She hadn't heard her cheerful laughter for a long time after her marriage.
She became increasingly depressed.
Alexia pursed her lips as a sort of a yes.
"But we'll never be together."
It was close to midnight when they arrived back at Joseph Bay. Kathy was sleepy, she closed her eyes in the car and fell asleep.
When Kathy woke up, she was already being carried back to the bedroom by Joseph.
She opened her eyes, "Why didn't you wake me up."
"Even if I wake you up, I'm still carrying you up, so it's better that you continue to sleep and be quiet." Joseph bit his lips and said.
"You mean that I'm usually very long-winded?" Kathy deliberately asked.
"Mrs Joseph, don't misinterpret me." Joseph laughed.
Kathy hugged Joseph and asked him, "How is Johnson doing lately?"
Joseph frowned, "Why are you talking about him."
"Well, I'm just asking. He still seems to be having feelings for Alexia."
"Well, he's been travelling to and from Country A a lot lately." Joseph didn't deny it.
"Doesn't he have a fiancée!" Kathy was angry.
"He doesn't like his fiancée."
"So if he doesn't like it, can't he just break off the engagement?"
Kathy was really worried about Alexia. Something terrible would happen if he and Alexia continue to dally.
