“Mr. Bertie, what do you mean?” Kathy asked.
Bertie sat on the sofa causally and said with tone of joking, “I met too many boring women before, now
I prefer some different one.”
He supposed Kathy just pretended to reject him, but still got fond of her.
To his surprised, she was already married.
Bertie kept Kathy in his mind these days…
Kathy avoided his eyes and said, “Even Sue herself will not accept you.”
He smiled, “I will possess anything I like in the world.”
Kathy said coldly, “Mr. Bertie, you are so confident.”
“Why not? I’ve never lost.”
He believed it for sure because he grew up just like the son of God who was granted anything in the
world.
However, Bertie should meet some problem this time.
He watched Kathy, which bothered Kathy a lot. It was already ten minutes since Billy left the room.
Bertie also realized it and walked to the door that he found locked.
There was a balcony without being covered by the curtain.
He narrowed his eyes grimly and walked to look at the terrace on his opposite for a while. Then he said
with a laugh, “We should have a trouble.”
Kathy did not understand what Bertie was talking about, also looking at somewhere he watched. Now
there was a flash from which she knew they were sneaked photos.
Billy should leave both of them on purpose. Why did he intend to do it?
Since he hoped Kathy could divorce with Joseph, today he might try to create a publicity stunt of
Bertieand Kathy to make Joseph and her break up.
Kathy would like to call Joseph, but failed for the poor coverage.
Bertie stood with his hands in the pockets of trousers and looked too calm.
“Take it easy.”
Kathy did not say anything, only badly worried. Joseph would be too anxious about her if he could not
get any call from her for one night.
She asked Bertie, “Why did Billy do that?”
By instinct, she thought he should know the reason.
But Bertie answered, “You should know it better as his elder sister.”
Kathy denied it, “No, I don’t care about his life.”
Although it was true that Billy was her sibling, she was unwilling to be involved in anything about him.
Bertie was doubted to ask, “You are not willing to be here?”
Kathy kept silent to stop giving him more information.
Bertie continued to say, “Some reporters are waiting outside; we should be trending on the internet
soon. Do you think whether they will give your name to the public?”
Kathy mumbled, “I always get bad luck with you.”
She should be in great trouble if reporters told her name later!
“Are you kidding me? Kathy, I am helping you become well-known to all.”
“I am married; I don’t ask for it.”
“Actually, nobody knows you married Joseph. His family is greatly prestigious, but you two married so
quietly. Joseph is not important to his family? Or the family has never recognized you as his wife.”
Bertie tried to talk more.
Kathy looked down; she understood how mysterious and powerful the Joseph’s family was. Until this
moment, she had not met anyone of the family except Joseph’s grandfather.
She was sure that Joseph played such a critical role in his family that he took over all the business of
the Joseph’s Group.
So, it was because his family would not like to admit she was his wife?
Was it the true reason?
Anyway, she would not believe anything Bertie said.
Now Bertie’s eyes turned bright and he went closer to say, “If I married you, we would have an amazing
wedding ceremony to let everyone in the world know you are my wife and, I love you so much.”
Kathy had to be alert to any word he talked about and pushed him away, “Mr. Bertie, stop please!”
In fact, she had never expected everyone in the world to know about her love and her life.
Bertie asked, “All women like being treated in the way. Right?” He touched his chin to show his great
knowledge of women.
Kathy answered in a lower voice, “I prefer a simple life.”
She always hoped to marry a common man to live as the most people in the world.
She intended to live simply as the daughter of Angela instead of the grandfather in the Booth’s family.
Now, she had been going too far from her intention.
Bertie did not believe her, “Tut, don’t tell a lie.”
Kathy did not talk further to get a walkie talkie, but found its lines cut down; she could not call the maids
outside.
As to knocking at the door, she did not anticipate it would work. They were in a room at the end of a
corridor without any maids passing by; To call them to the room, they had to open the door first.
Kathy felt frustrated to sit down.
She got annoyed with seeing Bertie still distracted by some other things. “Could you please give a
solution?”
Bertie said, “Not rush. I enjoy the moment being with you, no other interruption.”
Kathy was some of helpless.
At the gate of the club, the black car of Maybach stopped.
Joseph could not get touch in Kathy, so, he chased her last location in the system to be here.
When he was getting off his car, Billy walked out of the club to meet him by accident.
Billy smiled slightly to hide his secret, “Hey Joseph, you are here.”
It was known that XS Club was one of the properties from the Hilton’s family.
Joseph sneered, “Yes. I’ m here.”
Billy said, “May I offer you some drink?”
“No, thank you.” Soon Joseph went to inside of the house.
John got to the club earlier and checked all the CCTV. He found Billy and Kathy went to a room one
hour ago; later, Billy came out of the room alone; from then on, Kathy had not been found anywhere in
the video.
Joseph checked back the video to see Bertie.
He was annoyed and turned around to go.
But he did not forget to tell John, “Terminate the club now!”
John copied that; he was afraid Joseph was getting too mad to control himself.
Now in the room, Bertie opened a bottle of wine and then passed one glass of wine to Kathy.
Kathy was more and more worried; she became irritated to say, “Bertie, we have to go out!”
“Why? We have many things in the room. Let’s enjoy tonight!”
Just now, Kathy heard someone walking on the corridor to the room. She was too happy about it.
Then the door was opened by someone she knew so well.
She rushed to run to Joseph but hided her face in his arms due to her feeling of shame at cheating him
before.
Joseph raised her face to check everything was well for her and said with relief, “Kathy, you make
trouble again!”
His words blamed Kathy, but more sounded loving her.
Bertie put down the glass on the table and stepped to them slowly, “You two really love each other.”
“Sure. Bertie, don’t try to be the other man.” Joseph cuddled Kathy to leave the room.
The situation caused Bertie so fury to kick down the glasses.
Billy walked into the room to see the mess and laughed at Bertie, “Finally, you failed?”
Bertie asked, “Billy, what are you doing?”
He had never been deceived by others in the way!
Billy said, “Now all your family mistakes Kathy as Sue. If some good news about Kathy and you come
to the public, your family should be very glad. Should you appreciate me for it?”
Obviously, Bertie did not think so. He said, “Kathy is Joseph’s wife. I have to keep away from her!”
Billy tried to persuade him, “Kathy is my sister; she will always support us. Mr. Bertie, you will get her
as long as you win over Joseph.”
Bertie looked unhappy with his words..
He said, “I won’t offend Joseph’s family just for a woman.”
“So, we cannot agree.”
