My Sweetheart -
Chapter355 Do You Really Like Her?
Kathy burst out laughing, some sweet sensations spreading through her heart.
"I've nothing to do over there, so I won't bother you. Take a good rest."
After replying to the message, Kathy started today's study plan.
But soon after, Joseph called her directly.
"I had a bad fall yesterday. Now I've difficulty moving, but no one is taking care of me." His tone of voice was less serious than usual, and sounded like a spoiled child instead. "Why did you fall?"
"You flung yourself upon me yesterday, didn't you? My wound split open because of you."
Kathy was rendered speechless.
The truth was that Joseph deliberately held her in his arms.
"Then go to the doctor."
"I did it. The doctor said I need someone to be with me."
"I'm not available."
"John's already waiting for you downstairs."
Kathy was again rendered speechless.
She stepped onto the balcony and sure enough, there was a high-profile car parked in front of her dorm.
It was true...
She also wanted to see him...
"Wait a moment. Have you eaten yet?" Kathy asked.
"Not yet."
"Then I'll buy you food."
After hanging up the phone, Kathy went to the cafeteria to buy lunch before getting into the car.
At the hospital.
Veronica came to visit Joseph in the morning. When she heard his conversation with Kathy on the phone, she got goosebumps. "Joseph, you're so annoying." Veronica put on a disgruntled look on her face.
She never had a good attitude towards Kathy.
Even though she had now changed her impression of Kathy, it was because she was forced to do so by her brother.
"If you replace me annoying, then don't come here," Joseph said in an indifferent voice.
"You don't even think of me as your sister now," Veronica was jealous.
"If I don't think you're my sister, you'll be with Julian right now."
Veronica remained silent, unable to refute his remarks.
Julian had been trying to control her all these years, and it was Joseph who always protected her.
"You and Kathy have divorced." Veronica reminded him of this fact again.
""So what?"
"You two shouldn't keep in touch anymore."
"I can't help it." A frown marred Joseph's forehead, and a deep emotion appeared in his eyes.
Veronica actually felt that Joseph's emotion was vulnerable at the moment.
She understood his feelings, so she didn't want him to go on like this.
"Joseph, do you really like her?" Veronica asked.
At exactly that moment, Kathy was standing outside the door. She furrowed her forehead slightly as she heard Veronica's words. Was this "she"... referring to her?
Her grip on the door handle tightened gradually.
Unexpectedly, she was looking forward to Joseph's answer.
However, Joseph didn't give an answer until the end.
Gradually, the eager anticipation in Kathy's heart dissipated and eventually, she recovered her peace of mind.
She pushed the door open.
Veronica glanced at Kathy and said flatly, "I've to go home to study, please take care of my brother."
Kathy frowned. After Veronica left, only she and Joseph were left in the ward.
"Here's your dinner." Kathy's face remained devoid of any emotion.
Joseph frowned and responded to her with an hmm, but didn't move.
Kathy turned a blind eye to him and sat down on the couch regardless of his response.
"Come here," Joseph said.
Kathy frowned, still looking down at the book.
However, a loud bang was heard all of a sudden. Joseph got out of the bed, his leg hit the small table and the lunch box fell to the floor. Kathy was speechless.
She immediately walked over, knitting her eyebrows.
"Can't you behave yourself?!" Kathy flew into a rage, crouching down to clean up the mess.
But a hand clasped her wrist domineeringly. Joseph sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes deep and filled with intense emotions she couldn't see through.
She was pulled into his bosom.
"What makes you feel bad?" he asked.
When Kathy came in just now, her face was sullen.
"I'm not in a bad mood." Kathy didn't look at him.
She didn't want to change her mood because of Joseph, but in fact, she couldn't.
"I'll buy you another lunch." Kathy disentangled herself from his grip.
But Joseph didn't let go of her.
She looked up and made eye contact with him.
"Joseph."
"I'm not hungry," he said.
"I'm going back then."
"Sit right here." Joseph sat on the bed, while Kathy was forced to take the seat next to him.
It was really... awkward.
They were in the hospital and the nurses would come in anytime...
"I don't want to disturb your rest."
Upon hearing her words, Joseph's handsome face clouded over, "Are you so reluctant to stay?"
His tone was deep and cold.
The rhythm of Kathy's heartbeat was disrupted, of course she wanted to stay.
She wanted to see him; wanted to stay by his side.
"If you want to stay, then be a good girl and stay by my side." Joseph saw through her mind.
Kathy didn't move any more, reading a book quietly. The facilities equipped in the ward were exactly like a star hotel, which was so comfortable that it made her drowsy. Soon after, Kathy's eyelids closed...
Joseph turned his attention to Kathy, who was resting her head in his arms. Her profile was exquisite and her long eyelashes were perfectly curled, which made her look charming. His fingertips caressed her face and lingered on it for a long time.
The intense sexual desire in his eyes for her was all out.
His handsome face came cross to hers, then he seized her cherry-red lips.
His tongue went deeper and deeper without scruples.
Kathy seemed to be tasting her favorite candy, chewing and opening her mouth...
She was completely taken advantage of by someone...
It wasn't until the evening that Kathy woke up. She rubbed her eyes and immediately sat up ruefully.
"Shit!" How did she fall asleep!
And she even fell asleep next to Joseph!
It was embarrassed!
Joseph looked at her leisurely, smiling with the eyes.
""You're awake?"
"Yes..."
"Let's eat together."
Just now, he had asked John to buy Kathy's favorite food.
"I'm going back to school." Kathy picked up her handbag.
"Finish your food first." Joseph's tone was domineering.
"I'm hungry too," Joseph said.
Kathy looked at him and the moment she faced Joseph, her heart couldn't help but always melt...
She helped Joseph sit down on the couch while John came in to set dinner on the table. When he saw Joseph, he was about to speak, but hesitated.
"Go ahead," Joseph frowned and said coldly.
John gave Kathy a glance.
She immediately got the message, "You guys continue. I'll get going."
With these words, she was about to stand up, but Joseph clasped her wrist, "Sit down."
John forced himself to report, "Boss, we have received many complaints recently about our new product, BL Drug. Many patients have experienced allergic reactions, and their conditions even worsened after taking it. Now, the FDA has got involved in the investigation." Joseph's face fell when he heard John's report.
"Actively cooperate with the FDA's investigation and immediately retrieve the patients' database to replace out if there are any discrepancies."
"Got it. This news has gotten out to a lot of media outlets and the PR department is already working on it urgently."
"Alright, we can't let this news get about."
The conversation between Joseph and John made Kathy's blood creep. This new drug had just been launched on the market and got a good response initially, but if anything went wrong with it, it would completely ruin the reputation.
Although Joseph's Group was a big corporation, since they had resold a lot of best-selling medicine previously, so they now had only a few drugs that could be launched on the market, and BL Drug was one of their most best-selling drugs. If something went wrong, it would be a blow to Joseph's group.
But she had participated in the drug development project carried out by Joseph's group, and every procedure was very rigorous. They had developed so many drugs over the years, and the accident rate was very low. Unless Joseph's group was framed maliciously.
And it was not impossible, after all, Joseph's group had been very influential and high profile recently.000000000000000
