Kathy came out in a short while, but she still had to wait for the report.
Bertie was still there, and Kathy raised her eyes to look at him.
But after a long while, she still did not know what to say.
If she asked him to leave, he would not have listened.
Yet his presence disturbed her.
“What time would the report be available?” Zofia could only try to dissolve the awkwardness forcefully.
“After an hour.’
Kathy went down to pay the fees and then waited at the corridor.
Bertie was opposite her, leaning against the wall.
His handsome face often attracted attention, and soon quite a lot of female nurses began to hurdle
over, some who were braver even asked for his WeChat contact.
Bertie was already used to situations like this, just that Kathy was sitting opposite him.
“Sorry, but I didn’t want the person I like to misunderstand,” Bertie’s voice was laced with coldness.
It disappointed the female nurses surrounding him a lot.
Kathy lowered her head looking at her phone, ignoring all of this the entire time.
It was about time, and she should go to get her report. Zofia waited for her in the examination room,
while Kathy went alone.
But she saw someone that she did not want to see.
Herbert was here for her body check-up. When she saw Kathy, her intricate brow raised up.
“Such a coincidence?”
Kathy frowned and ignored Herbert.
Yet Herbert did not care, “Let me guess why you’re in the hospital, are you hurt?”
“Herbert, my affairs are none of your business.”
“Pfft, we were once classmates after all, is there a need to be so cold?”
Kathy smiled coldly, “There is.”
“Say, where have you got such courage to treat me like this. Was it the bankruptcy of the Herbert group
that made you so arrogant?”
Kathy glared at the woman before her in displease, should she not get treated for her delusions?
“Since the Herbert group is now bankrupt, shouldn’t you be fixing the situation instead of being here
taunting me?”
“The Herbert group was already beyond repair, what else can I do? Billy was deeply in love with you
and stood aside in my times of need. Why hadn’t I realised back then that you were a whore that loved
to seduce others everywhere you go?”
“Herbert, all of this were brought upon you by yourself. You’re the whore,” Kathy rebutted coldly.
When she got her report, she no longer stayed for another moment.
Talking with Herbert was a waste of her precious time.
Herbert was furious, looking at Kathy’s silhouette, she gritted her teeth and began to chase after.
She was unwilling, she wanted Kathy to fall just like she did!
But just when she took a step, a bed from the side was pushed over. Herbert had not noticed it and
was hit by it, her entire person fell awkwardly.
When she raised her head, Kathy had completely disappeared!
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Herbert stood up and kicked angrily.
“Haven’t you had eyes?”
As she spoke, she ran out a little awkwardly.
The report showed that everything was fine with Kathy’s body, after the doctor finished writing her
records, she no longer needed to visit the doctor again.
However, Kathy’s body was still a little weak and she should be more cautious of taking care of her
body.
As she left the hospital, Bertie’s car was parked right at the entrance. When Kathy came out, he had
already opened the car door.
This time Zofia pulled Kathy into the car quickly, “Don’t let my brother leave emptyhanded…”
“I’m doing this for you,” Kathy smiled.
The way back was smooth, but as they were above to reach campus, Bertie suddenly took a sharp turn
and the car sped in the opposite direction.
The car drove at a fast speed. Kathy and Zofia immediately clutched onto the handles but they were
still uncomfortable from all the tumbling.
“What’s going on, brother?”
“Someone is chasing us from behind,” Bertie’s expression darkened.
Kathy looked backwards, it was a white car. The car’s speed was fast, looking as if it wanted to collide
forcefully.
If Bertie had decelerated, it would have caused an accident.
Kathy was a little nervous, her face turned pale.
“What’s going on?”
Why would someone follow them out of the blue?
Zofia was so scared that her entire face perspired, as she clutched onto Kathy’s arm tightly.
“Brother, I’m scared…” Zofia could not help but tremble entirely.
Bertie could not lose focus, he held the steering wheel as his eyes darkened.
He could only accelerate further as the car went towards a strange place, the car behind still chased
after them.
Finally, at a junction, Bertie sped up and a large truck drove out from the junction, and blocked the car’s
way.
Bertie’s car drove into a parking lot. Zofia was already so scared that she was trembling, as she
clutched onto Kathy tightly.
“Zofia!”
Kathy watched as Zofia fainted, and held onto her anxiously.
Bertie got down from the car and opened the door of the back seat.
His aura seeped coldness. Looking at Zofia’s bloodless complexion, he carried her up horizontally.
“You should leave first, I’ll get her to a hospital.”
There was a hospital nearby.
Kathy could not bring herself to relax, she had knew how afraid Zofia was just now. She seemed to
have some kind of mental trauma, as she kept on mumbling.
“I want to come along.”
Bertie’s eyes darkened as he looked at Kathy, his tone sounding like a command, “Go back.”
“I’m worried!” Kathy still followed.
On their way to the hospital, Kathy looked around, afraid that the car was still nearby.
She did not know whether it was directed towards Bertie or her, yet… she sensed a murderous feeling.
It was about to collide no matter what.
Thinking about it now still made her afraid.
Zofia was sent into the emergency room quickly, while Kathy stood outside anxiously.
Looking at Bertie’s dark expression, she wanted to speak up but stopped herself.
After a while, only Bertie’s expression softened slightly.
Not long after his assistant came, and he walked to the end of the corridor. Kathy did not hear what he
was saying.
Only when the assistant left that he came to Kathy.
“Were you scared just now?” His expression has softened a lot.
The Bertie just now was radiating with a terrifying aura, and was unapproachable.
“It was alright, I’m fine.”
“Zofia had met with a car accident when she was young. That’s why she was horrified just now,” Bertie
explained, while frustration came upon him.
“No wonder, she was clutching onto me just now and she was on the verge on breaking down.”
“It was my fault.”
“Who’s the driver following us just now working for?” Kathy asked uneasily.
“It was a rival of the Marshall family. All these years, there were always people who wanted to kidnap
Zofia or even kill her.”
“Why… must it be Zofia?” Kathy asked worriedly.
“She’s the beloved granddaughter of my grandfather. No one could get to me, but Zofia s just a girl.”
Kathy pursed her lips, and asked quietly after a while, “Has something like this… happened to Zofia
before?”
“Yes, actually she gets terrified every time she’s in a car. So she rarely leaves the school, unless it was
to go hang out with her friends. But she has covered her feelings up very well.”
No wonder Kathy never realised.
“I shouldn’t have asked her to come along with me.”
“She had been the one who wanted to accompany you, you couldn’t have talked her out of it. She also
doesn’t like to be protected by the bodyguards. This sister of mine really makes me worried
sometimes.”
“She would have been very safe being on campus.”
“But she loves freedom, just that it was hard for her to do so.”
At this moment, Kathy’s heart ached for Zofia.
She loved to laugh and her personality was normally straightforward. Who knew that she had always
lived in danger.
