The Herbert’s Group had been in turmoil. The shareholders meeting had been trying to depose Peter
from his current position but he ended up staying.
The news of Herbert compromising for their child’s sake was released.
Peter also finally held a press conference. He clarified that his mistake was due to effect of alcohol and
he purposely mentioned about Kathy.
“As for the woman you all have seen was someone who had a crush on me for many years.”
Kathy’s face sank, looking at Peter’s face, she was frightened as if he was a stranger at that moment.
“Crush on him?”
Back then everyone in the school knew that Peter had a crush on her and kept chasing after her.
“Do you still have contact with her?” A reporter asked.
“I won’t allow her to pester me anymore.” Peter said it loud and clear.
Kathy was so angry until she couldn’t bear to watch it anymore, she then switched off the TV.
After looking at the time, it was time to go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients.
She didn’t have to work for these few days, she was in charge of the dinner preparation so that she
won’t be that bored.
In the afternoon, no much people at the supermarket, she didn’t expect that the Peter’s press
conference was repeatedly played on the large screen of the TV. Kathy didn’t make up, but the screen
had magnified her photos, she was surrounded by people’s gaze and gossips when she stepped inside
the supermarket.
She quickly bought her stuff and paid the bill. A bunch of reporters rushed over before she left the
supermarket.
Kathy was forced to stop as she was blocked by them.
“Ms Kathy, Mr Peter mentioned that you had a crush on him for many years, are you getting in way of
the marriage between him and Ms Herbert?”
“Have you been thinking of interfering their marriage?”
“We found out that you and Mr Peter were both each other’s first love, will you guys rekindle your
relationship?”
Looking at the flashing cameras, Kathy frowned and felt disgusted.
The bodyguards who were under Joseph’s command came over soon to block the reporters.
Just that today she couldn’t avoid from showing in front of the cameras.
Kathy took a deep breath and stopped the bodyguards. She then faced the reporters naturally.
“I’m already married and now I’m living a happy life with my husband. I hope you can help to tell Mr
Peter to stop interfering my marriage and don’t pester me anymore.”
The reporters were shocked by her words as Peter said that Kathy was the one who was pestering him
an hour ago, but now it was a completely different story.
Some observant reporters noticed the wedding ring on Kathy’s finger, it was snapped and zoomed on
the cameras. Kathy again appeared on the headlines of news.
Herbert watched the news, indignantly sinking her face.
Kathy’s speech clearly gave a slap in Peter’s face. She was already married and the reporters found
out that her wedding ring worth three hundred million.
The photos Kathy was snapped showed that it was nearby the Golden Bay. Even some rich one
couldn’t stay at Golden bay’s villa, it must be someone of great influence.
She had already married into a top-tier luxury family and lived a happy life, how could she be a
mistress?
Almost all the statements implied that Peter was lying, it was obvious that Peter still had feelings for
Kathy.
“Peter, why are you so ridiculous!” Herbert shouted in rage, she was about to forgive this man, but she
couldn’t let this get through easily for now.
She thought that she had been happier than Kathy for so many years, but how could this happen…
She thought Joseph was just a doctor but how could he live in the Golden Bay which was a place
gathered with top luxury family.
“I’m sorry, Herbert, don’t trust those nonsense on the internet, I’ll take care of it.” Peter hugged her,
assuring her in low voice.
“It better be!” Herbert growled.
She would never let Kathy to win over her!
…
Kathy was led all the way to the car by the bodyguards when she left the supermarket.
It was a limited edition Maybach that Kathy had never seen before.
It was only a distant snapshot. The reporters couldn’t find out who was inside the car as they couldn’t
get near.
The reporters were stunned and again took a few shots of the luxurious car.
“How did you get here?” Kathy looked at Joseph surprisingly.
He probably didn’t go to the hospital today as he was wearing white shirt and trousers.
Peter looked good in everything he wore as he had nice body figure.
Kathy quickly averted her eyes.
“Should I go out?” Instead of answering, Joseph asked her.
Kathy immediately shook her head, “No, don’t you also dislike being snapped by the reporters?”
“But it sounds not bad if we get into the headlines together.” Joseph smirked.
“Joseph, don’t mess around!” Kathy made a sour face. She had no other way but to clarify in front of
the reporters today.
She couldn’t stand to let Peter to ruin her reputation any longer.
“Did I mess up? Mrs Joseph?” He leaned on her, picking up her chin with her slender fingertips, gazing
at her with his scorching eyes.
Kathy’s heart raced and lowered down her head.
“Stay away from me!” She moved her body and noticed that the reporters had rushed over.
Even though she knew that the reporters couldn’t see the people inside the car, Kathy was inexplicably
scared.
Fortunately, the driver drove away quickly and Kathy was relieved to see that the reporters couldn’t
catch up.
But as soon as she turned around, Joseph leaned towards her again, pushing her to the corner, and
she had nowhere to escape.
“Mrs Joseph, are you afraid of me?” Joseph suddenly asked.
He didn’t like it when Kathy kept avoiding his approach.
“No.” Kathy replied stubbornly.
“Then come over.” Joseph’s smile was arousing.
“I don’t want.” Kathy turned away her head.
Looking at her stubborn face, Joseph then cupped her chin. Kathy’s lips was blocked by him before she
was able to react, familiar breath flowed in, and she was stunned.
“Still didn’t know how to take a breath?” Joseph’s voice was hoarse.
Kathy was pissed off. She bit Joseph when he was about to kiss her again.
Joseph narrowed his eyes, exerting a dangerous aura, “Mrs Joseph, are you going to oppose me?”
“I was forced to!” Kathy turned away her head arrogantly.
Who let him kiss her as he like!
“When did I force you? I’m just teaching.”
“I don’t need it! Joseph, we made an agreement, you can’t just kiss me casually.” Kathy looked at him
alertly.
Joseph kissed her no matter what the occasion was, but the two of them were just contracted couple,
there was no need to act when no one was around.
Joseph’s face straightened, a contracted couple?
So what if I made a promise, there’s plenty of ways I could ruin it.
“I seriously meant it when I kissed you.” Joseph said in a serious manner.
“…” Kathy was speechless.
How could this man always take advantage on her.
“Unless it was necessary, it’s better for us to keep appropriate distance when there’s no someone else!”
Kathy said it loud and clear.
They were overly intimate during this time, if this continued…She’s afraid that she would fall for him.
“Well, an appropriate negative distance sounds good though.” Joseph narrowed his eyes.
Kathy was muddled, and it took a long while for her to realize what Joseph meant.
Seriously, what was in this man’s mind!
Back to the old mansion, Mathew was at home, watching Kathy giving her speech in front of the
reporters on the TV.
“My great granddaughter-in-law, that’s impressing, this should be the way to rebuke the scum!” Mathew
said it open-heartedly.
