A lot of students had gathered around, and it wouldn't do anyone any good if this matter got out of
hand.
"Joseph, don't let me see you again. I told you, I'll beat you up whenever I see you!" Aaron said
ruthlessly.
Joseph's expression remained unchanged, and he remained his usual gentle self when facing Kathy.
But in his eyes, there was a coldness that extended on and on.
Their sedan started to drive off slowly. Kathy was still shocked by Aaron's actions just now.
Glancing at the back of Joseph's bleeding hand, she grabbed his hand worriedly.
"Joseph, don't drive anymore."
"It's not in the way." Joseph's face softened a bit.
"I'll give you a quick bandage and let me drive," Kathy said.
Moreover, she clearly noticed that Joseph's mood was not good either.
Back at Joseph Bay, Kathy asked Joseph to rest nicely while she cooked dinner tonight.
The maid had already bought all the ingredients, and Kathy made a soup. Seeing that Joseph didn't
stay in the living room, he must have been working in the home office again.
Soon John came over and reported to Joseph about the company's affairs.
Kathy served him a bowl of soup.
John was busy waving his hand, he wouldn't dare...
Kathy saw his rejection and smiled, "Joseph and I can't finish it, so help us out."
Even with that, John was still not dared to accept her offer.
Kathy frowned, thinking he should be fear of Joseph's might.
"If you don't drink it, you're disrespecting me as Mrs Joseph?" Kathy deliberately pretended to be
angry.
John was terrified. The boss was in the home office, and he couldn't go in if he didn't drink the soup.
Seeing that John finally gave in, Kathy smiled in satisfaction and continued to pound away in the
kitchen.
After they talked about business, John left shortly afterwards.
When Joseph came out, he saw the empty soup bowl on the dining table.
"Mrs Joseph is nice to her subordinates, eh?" Joseph smiled with his thin lips.
Kathy was cutting vegetables and looked up when he heard what Joseph said, "Well, people are
working for you after all and you always have a straight face, how distant."
Kathy turned her head and raised her hand to pinch Joseph's handsome face.
In the past, when Joseph was still a doctor, he didn't like to smile. But now that he's a boss, he's even
less likely to smile.
The next second, Kathy's hand was held by Joseph, he bit his thin lips, "I don't like people approaching
me."
"What about me?" Kathy said.
"Except for Mrs Joseph." He closed his eyes and pushed Kathy towards and against the wall, followed
by a searing kiss.
…
With a month to go before the wedding, Kathy was free to go over to stay with her grandfather.
He was her family, after all. Although she hadn't had the chance to spend time together in the past, at
this time she wanted to spend these last six months with her grandfather.
Jennifer Booth often came over as well, but she didn't have a good relationship with Zack Booth, the
only reason she came was to discuss the wedding with Kathy.
The Booth family's roots were initially from abroad. Over the years as Jennifer took charge of the
Booth's Group, the business gradually moved back to City N.
However, their focus remained overseas.
Kathy wasn't interested in the Booth family's assets, but Jennifer would always hint her at it.
"Kathy, your grandfather's property will all be yours in the future, including the Booth's Group. I know
you're preparing to continue your studies as a postgraduate, but in the next few years, I want you to
learn how to take over the Booth's Group as well," Jennifer spoke with deep concern.
Kathy was stunned, the Booth's Group...
She knew who she was and what was her situation. Some things were inevitable.
She wasn't the only granddaughter of the Booth family. Jennifer had Billy Hilton as her child also, but
why were all assets only distributed to her?
Kathy was curious, so she asked the question.
Jennifer's face turned pale and said in a deep voice, "That child, Billy, is not my biological child."
"In the beginning, in order for me to be able to hold possession of the Booth Group, the Hilton family
kept my husband and his ex-wife's child by my side."
"Mom, does Billy know?" Kathy frowned.
Remembering that usually Billy always called her "sister" and they had a closed relationship, he
probably didn't know this fact.
Jennifer shook her head, "I'm sure he'll find out about this himself soon. I promised the Hilton family I
wouldn't go back on my word, he'll always be my son."
Kathy was silent, she didn't know much about the Booth Group, but her future career plans wouldn't
have anything to do with the business world if she chose to pursue graduate studies in medicine.
Naturally, Jennifer knew that.
“you haven't enrolled in school yet, Kathy, I want you to think about it. You're the only granddaughter of
the Booth family, I don't want to put pressure on you, but this is the path the Booth family has paved for
you."
Jennifer left after lunch. While Grandpa was having a body checkup, Kathy sat alone in the living room.
On Kathy's hand was all the information on the Booth Group. The Booth Group was engaged in high-
end medical services, with businesses all over the world, especially in overseas locations.
Now all the businesses in N City were being handled by Jennifer, while the overseas industry chain
was under Billy's control.
But in the future, it was all meant to be taken over by Kathy.
The pressure on her was suddenly a lot heavier.
Kathy's brain was in confusion until the afternoon. She looked at the time, Joseph was still not done
with work, and she missed him.
Thus she went straight over to the Joseph Group.
The staff at the front desk recognized her, and Kathy had an unobstructed journey to the top floor.
The elevator stopped midway on the 23rd floor, and Edith Wesley went into the elevator.
"Miss Kathy." Edith greeted politely.
Kathy's face was gentle, a little dissatisfied with what she was called.
"Came to visit President Joseph?" She asked.
"Yes." Kathy said with a smile.
"It just so happens that I am, too."
Edith was looking for Joseph on a business matter and had already made an appointment, so she
entered the office first.
John was outside of the office, and when he saw Kathy, he came forward with some trepidation,
"Madam, it will only take a moment."
"Okay." Kathy sat down at her original workplace, not wanting to disturb Joseph.
Jennifer had basically prepared the whole wedding. Joseph chose the wedding dress, and there was
nothing for her to worry about as a bride.
After a phone conversation with Alexia to inform her about the wedding, Alexia was thrilled.
"Dr Joseph finally enlightened? Too bad I'm married and can't be a bridesmaid for you."
"It's grandfather's request, he doesn't have much time left, I'm sort of fulfilling his wish. As for Joseph,
I'm surprised that he's willing to cooperate."
"Dr Joseph likes you. Of course, he would like to."
"He... "Kathy frowned, "It is just that I'm Mrs Joseph."
"Stop thinking about nonsense and get ready for the wedding. By the way, how's the postgraduate
entrance exam going?" Alexia asked with concern.
"I should be fine when the results come out tomorrow. I think I did pretty well." Kathy confidently said.
"I believe you can do it too. I'll come over, and we'll celebrate then!"
After hanging up the phone, Edith also came out of the office.
John immediately went in, "President Joseph, your wife came over."
On the itinerary, Joseph would be doing research with Edith later, but now Kathy had come over.
"What?" Joseph unexpectedly raised his eyebrows.
