My Sweetheart
Chapter 311 Unwilling To See Me

Joseph turned on the light and supported Kathy to sit up. "I'll buy something for you to eat."

Kathy knew that he will still go and buy even if she rejected so she kept quiet.

Bertie came in soon after Joseph left. Kathy was irritated and didn't want to deal with Joseph, much less with Bertie.

"I'm sorry." Bertie apologized sincerely as soon as he spoke.

He was outside the patient's room and didn't dare to enter. He was partially responsible for Kathy's brush with danger. He compelled her to go to TC Mountain with the intention of helping her relax and improve her mood but little did he expect that she would meet with such an accident.

"If you really feel sorry, then get out of my sight," Kathy said calmly. She didn't want to see him.

"Okay, Kathy, remember what I said. Don't get too close to Joseph." Bertie reminded her. He left without waiting for Kathy's reply. He didn't want to hear Kathy's refusal. To think that he had to resort to escaping reality, feeling remorse, and guilt.

Kathy didn't take his words seriously. She also did not want to be close to Joseph but he kept appearing beside her though they had already divorced.

Alexia came soon after and cried bitterly when she saw the bandages on Kathy's hand and legs.

Kathy smiled, "I'm not dead yet, it's just a slight injury."

"It's a serious injury! How could you hurt yourself to such an extent by climbing this mountain? Is this your jinxed period?" Alexia sat down beside her.

She looked at Kathy's medical record and was relieved only when she confirmed that Kathy's condition was not serious.

"My luck had been down every time Bertie is with me." Kathy frowned and became irritated and angry when she thought about how Bertie held her against her will at the Marshall family. "Bertie? Why are you with him?" Alexia was puzzled.

"He... forget it, I don't want to talk about him." Kathy shook her head and didn't want to mention it. She just wanted to go back to N City and didn't want to see him anymore.

At this moment, footsteps could be heard outside. Joseph had returned from buying some porridge. Alexia was stunned for a while when she saw him. Weren't these two divorced...

Furthermore, this was B country and not N City. She looked at Joseph and then at Kathy and Alexia exclaimed, "Did you two remarry?"

Kathy paused when she heard and wanted to shut Alexia's mouth!

"Of course not. He was in the area." Kathy quickly said.

Joseph grinned but was not angry. "If I wasn't passing through TC Mountain that day, you might have been dead in the wilderness now."

Kathy, "..." Of course, she won't be! But Kathy conceded when she heard the storm raging outside.

Alexia looked at the two of them and her smile deepened, "So it's Doctor Joseph who saved my Kathy."

"No wonder you insisted that I come tomorrow and not today. So, you didn't want me to become a third wheel?" Alexia raised an eyebrow mischievously at her.

Kathy glared at her in return. Now she would rather Alexia stayed and for Joseph to quickly leave. Joseph positioned the table and tray next to her before he opened the container with the porridge. "Let it cool down before you eat it." He said tenderly.

"Ok, Mr. Joseph. Can you leave now?" Kathy looked at him.

"Ms. Alexia, there is no need to trouble you tonight. I'll send Kathy back tomorrow." Joseph said to Alexia.

Alexia looked at Kathy and then at Joseph. She chose to listen to Joseph! After all, it was for the sake of Kathy's happiness! Kathy frowned when she saw Alexia stand up and her expression clearly said, "Don't leave." But Alexia teased her, "Okay, I'm tired. Don't make me stay. Since Dr. Joseph is here, I will leave you in his hands."

"Alexia, what are you saying..."

"Okay, bye bye, honey... I'll come to see you tomorrow."

Kathy drooped her head in resignation as she saw Alexia leave. So now... she was alone with Joseph again. Joseph became unsettled when he saw her expression.

"Are you so unwilling to see me?" He asked coldly.

Kathy was shocked and looked up and his eyes were frightening. She swallowed her saliva and kept quiet for a while. She didn't know how to interact with Joseph, now that they had already divorced.

Kathy lowered her head and ate the porridge quietly. But the awkward atmosphere made her feel very uncomfortable. Especially Joseph's glare which looked like a predator staring at a prey...

"Ah!" Suddenly Kathy was distracted and bit her tongue.

Joseph sprung to his feet out of concern and looked at her petite face and asked, "What happened?"

Kathy moved her mouth and composed herself after a while.

"I bit my tongue."

"Clumsy." Joseph relaxed since she was fine.

Kathy pursed her lips. It was all because of your presence, otherwise, why would I be so nervous...

The next day, the day brightened up slowly and the sun lit up the entire room. It was already rather late when Kathy woke up. As she opened her eyes, she was the only one in the room. What time did she sleep last night? She clearly remembered that she was trying not to fall asleep after finishing the porridge because Joseph was there. But later, he seemed to have sat beside her and embraced her. She couldn't struggle free, and then...

She knocked herself on her head in frustration, how could she fall asleep...

At this moment, footsteps can be heard from outside and Joseph walked in. He handed a cell phone to Kathy, "I'd already replaced your SIM card."

"Thanks." Kathy took it over with surprise. She thought that she would not be able to replace her cell phone but Joseph was able to replace it within one night. Did this mean that she was indebted to him again? But they could never settle the accounts clearly between them. "When will we return to N city?" Kathy asked.

"An hour later. I had settled your hospital discharge."

Kathy didn't expect Joseph to bring her back in a private jet.

"Joseph, I'll take my own flight back." Kathy backed off.

Joseph didn't give her a chance to refuse. He grabbed her wrist and brought her into the airplane cabin.

"Joseph!" Kathy glared at him angrily.

"Are you so reluctant to fly in my airplane?" The man's expression darkened.

Kathy pursed her lips. It was not that she was reluctant. It was inappropriate now that they had divorced.

"Yes, I don't want to." Kathy strongly objected.

But the cabin door had closed and locked and Joseph forcibly placed her onto her seat and buckled her seat belt.

"Mrs. Joseph, don't say one thing while you mean another."

"Mr. Joseph, I'm no longer Mrs. Joseph," Kathy said angrily.

This title will always remind her of their time together and how intimate they were. Although initially, it was a marriage of convenience, later her feelings for him became unbridled. Since they had divorced, she wanted to make things clear with regards to their relationship and not see each other again.

"Then, ex-wife?" Joseph grinned.

"Joseph, we are no longer involved in any way," Kathy emphasized once again.

At that time, he was the first to agree to the divorce. She didn't even have the right to refuse.0000
