Kathy bit her lip. She was about to lose consciousness, and only Joseph remained in her sight.
She was right in front of Joseph.
When she lowered her head, she kissed Joseph again and tried to pull off his shirt.
John turned around, understandingly.
Joseph didn't give her the chance to do that, he picked her up and ran to the car.
"Tell Stanley to come over."
In the apartment.
Joseph put Kathy on the bed, and she kept tugging at him and craned her legs while her eyes
wandered as she bit her lip.
For Joseph, it was a deadly invitation.
Stanley Barker had already come over and saw Kathy. He immediately went over to diagnose her
pulse.
"A mixture of enigma and stimulant, but there should be other ingredients. I'll try one kind of medicine
first." Stanley said.
"Well, I can't identify this drug, it's not listed in the market," Joseph said in a deep voice.
Stanley was a member of the Pharmaceutical Testing Section and also a member of the Institute of
Medical Research, and has an excellent relationship with Joseph.
After withdrawing Kathy's blood for testing, he immediately went back to the hospital to get medicine.
Joseph frowned at the sight of Kathy's distress.
He took out his medical kit and injected Kathy with hypnotic, and soon after, she gradually closed her
eyes.
However, her body was still very sensitive, and Joseph held her in his arms and pressed her against
him.
"Mrs Joseph, you'll be fine."
Until dawn, Joseph didn't close his eye for a bit, and Kathy had left tons of mark on his chest. All this
was just to let Kathy feel slightly better.
Stanley quickly came over because the lab results were out.
In addition to the previously diagnosed enigmatic and hypnotic drugs, there was also a new type of
alcohol that had extremely strong side effects. The alcohol would remain in the patient's system for a
long time if there were no drug dilution, which was a huge concern.
Joseph coldly squinted, and his hand was shaking slightly.
Zack Booth was truly ruthless.
"Dr Joseph, the antidote must be found immediately, or else Miss Kathy's body may not be able to
withstand the alcohol, which is extremely toxic."
"Is there no other way?" Joseph closed his eyes.
He shouldn't have let her know all this.
He shouldn't have let her go back to the Booth family.
For the first time in many years, he felt such regret.
It would be dangerous just to let her go.
Then, just keep her close by.
The coldness in his eyes spread, and he held Kathy cold body in his arms. In an hour, she would wake
up.
The drug was still in her system, and she would feel even worse than before.
Stanley shook his head, "Is it the Booth Group's drug? I remember the Booth Group developed an
alcohol five years ago, but it wasn't released and I'm afraid it was in private circulation."
"Yes, it's the Booth Group's drug," Joseph said in a deep voice.
Looking at Kathy, Joseph got more and more emotional. He gripped and unclenched his palm and held
her tightly.
Mrs Kathy...
…
At the Booth Family's place, Zack was furious when he heard Joseph took Kathy away.
"Why didn't you stop them!" Zack looked at Bertie Marshall and was enraged at the sight of him.
"Grandpa, I couldn't stop her. Kathy was so dependent on Joseph that she wouldn't let me get close to
her."
"Have you gone soft?" Zack squinted.
"Yes." Bertie did not deny.
"Dad, you shouldn't force Bertie further, we all know Kathy really loves Joseph." Jennifer Booth
persuaded.
"If you hadn't done something wrong back then, would I be doing this now?" When Zack looked at
Jennifer, he became even angrier.
How could they let their Booth family bloodline go missing for so many years!
Jennifer was not daring to speak for a moment.
It wasn't that she hadn't thought about taking Kathy back over the years, but her life had been simple
and peaceful, and she didn't want to disturb her.
It wasn't until she married Joseph that she became nervous.
It was all too late now...
The butler hurriedly came in from outside.
"Master, Mr Joseph is here with Miss Kathy."
On hearing this, Zack's tense look relaxed a little.
"Let them in."
Kathy had just woken up, her body was so hot, and she was sweating all the time. She clearly felt the
pain was tougher than last night.
Every second was torture.
She looked at Joseph, bit her lip, and pushed him away.
Joseph frowned, took her hand, and helped her through the door.
The Booth family was all there. Obviously, they were waiting for them.
"Kathy." Jennifer looked at Kathy's pained look and was heartbroken.
Kathy didn't look at her, she was disappointed with everyone in the Booth family.
Feeling Kathy's coldness, the pain under Jennifer's eyes flickered away.
"Mr Zack, is it true that as long as I divorce Kathy, you will hand over the antidote?" Joseph asked
straightforwardly.
Zack stroked his chin, looked at his granddaughter's red face, and frowned.
"Of course."
"Grandpa, why are you doing this?" Kathy took a deep breath and asked in a cold voice.
She had no idea that the person who hurt her the most would be the one she was closest to.
Her grandfather disapproved of her and Joseph being together and even used such a tactic to force her
to divorce him.
What did the Booth family take her for?
"Kathy, you have to know that I'm doing this for your own good. I have searched you for a very long
time now, Bertie is who I chose that is most suitable for you. As for you and Joseph, he knew your
identity long ago and used you." Zack said loudly.
"So tell me, Grandpa, why is Joseph trying to use me?" Kathy asked in a calm voice.
Joseph's face remained unchanged. He could clearly feel Kathy's panic and fear.
Joseph's arm around her waist gradually tightened.
Kathy's face was pale, she didn't know much about matters related to business, but she knew the huge
profits hidden there.
Subconsciously, Kathy looked at Joseph.
"Mr Zack, Kathy's body cannot withstand the drug anymore, so bring out the divorce documents.
Please give the antidote immediately when we finish signing them."
Joseph did not respond to Zack's statement, his attention was focused on Kathy.
Kathy was really upset.
"Joseph, I don't agree to the divorce." Kathy was against him.
She didn't want to be threatened in this way. She didn't believe that the Booth family could really be so
indifferent to her.
"I want to divorce you, Miss Kathy." Joseph's tone was indifferent.
Miss Kathy...what an alienating address...
Kathy smiled bitterly. She knew Joseph was doing it to save her.
However, she didn't want to...
She didn't want a divorce at all, and didn't want to go along with the Booth family's wishes!
"Grandpa, I will not divorce."
"Kathy, sign the agreement, come back to the Booth family, break off your relationship with Joseph.
Listen to my words."
"No, I was never related to the Booth family in the first place, not before, and even less now!" Kathy
coldly said.
Everyone here made her feel absolute despair.
