At the Joseph Group, Herbert was waiting outside when Julian was leaving.
She didn't have much time left.
"Isn't this, Miss Herbert?" Julian's tone was cold.
"Julian, I won't let you go." Herbert looked at him resentfully.
Julian was so calm that he put his hands in his pockets and looked at her condescendingly, "I'd like to
know what you can do to not let me go."
"If I go to jail, you will too."
Julian laughed out loud when he heard it, "Herbert, do you have the ability to do that?"
"I don't, but someone else can."
The coldness in Julian's eyes surfaced, and suddenly he grabbed Herbert's neck hard, "Do you dare?"
"What would I not dare to do!"
"Your father is still in the hospital," Julian reminded her.
Herbert widened her eyes. Since the Herbert Group got into a critical situation, Kingston had been
hospitalized in bed.
What did Julian want to do...
"Herbert, before you do anything, think of your loved ones."
Julian loosened his hand, turned around and got into the car. His tone was cold to the extreme, he
knew Herbert's weakness.
It was already winter, and the coldness was pervasive. Herbert slowly squatted down in front of the
Joseph Group's entrance.
After a while, she calmed down and sent an email on her cell phone.
The next day at the hospital, John came over early in the morning, and his face was very anxious.
"Mr Joseph, Herbert is missing. Kingston passed away this morning."
Upon hearing this, Joseph's face got serious.
"What was the cause of death?"
"The report from the hospital is myocardial infarction."
"Check all the surveillance cameras from last night and track down Herbert," Joseph instructed.
"I got it."
Soon after, grandpa's video call came in, and Joseph answered.
"Grandpa."
"How's it going with Kathy? Have you remarried yet?"
Compared to the Joseph Group's matter, Mathew was more concerned about his grandson's marriage.
Upon hearing this, Joseph frowned.
"There is no remarriage."
"Aren't y... you guys quite close lately!" Mathew asked.
After all, Kathy was always around when he called Joseph recently.
"It was just an illusion." Joseph's tone was indifferent.
It made Mathew extremely angry.
After hanging up the phone, Mathew couldn't sit still and called Kathy.
"Kathy, I'm Joseph's grandpa."
"Hello, grandpa." Kathy had just finished class and unexpectedly received a call from Mathew.
"Have you finished class?" Mathew asked with concern.
"Ya, just finished it."
"I was talking on the phone with Joseph just now, it seems like he's going to have an operation, and
grandpa isn't around, I was wondering if you could help me go see him?"
"Surgery, what happened to him?" Kathy said worriedly and rushed out of the classroom.
"I don't know either. I guess it's his leg again. Grandpa is really worried, but I can't go over there right
away." Mathew's voice was filled with helplessness.
Kathy frowned and said in a warm voice, "Grandpa, don't worry, I'll go over to see him right away."
"Really? Will it interrupt your time? it's all because of that kid, always so careless..." Mathew said.
"There's no problem at all. It's pretty close to the hospital from here. I'll go check on Joseph's condition
and then talk to Grandpa later."
"That's great. Sorry for troubling you, Kathy."
"No problem, no problem..."
After hanging up the phone, Kathy immediately rushed over.
Her hands couldn't help but kept trembling, how could Joseph suddenly have to undergo surgery?
Both of his legs were injured, did he fall down again?
Why couldn't he take care of himself!
Thinking of this, Kathy became even more worried.
"Mr driver, please drive a little faster." Kathy's face was pale.
"It's always jam here, I'd like to drive faster, but I can't." The driver's patience was running out.
The road ahead seemed to have had an accident, and it had been jammed for almost an hour.
Kathy checked on the navigation app, looked at the distance, and there were still two kilometres to go.
She paid the money and immediately got off the taxi. She was running over there, but the weather was
so sunny that by the time she reached the hospital, she was too dizzy to stand still.
She went to the operating room without stopping but she did not see Joseph.
When she arrived at Joseph's room, his bodyguard immediately opened the door for her.
Kathy walked in and nervously said, "Joseph, what's wrong with you?".
Her face was completely covered in sweat, and she was so hot that her face was red.
At the same time, Joseph was lying on the hospital bed and was concentrating on his business.
Kathy looked at him steadily for a long time and was stunned that she could not find where he had
been injured so severely that he needed surgery...
Joseph looked at her with a puzzled face, he could not get out of bed and asked Kathy to come over.
Kathy stood in the doorway, not moving at all.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"I have a problem." Joseph frowned.
"Did you undergo surgery?"
Joseph pursed his lips because he didn't understand what Kathy meant at the moment.
"Grandpa said you're in the middle of an operation, so he asked me to come over and help him check
on you..." Kathy said in a low voice.
"Well, come over to my side."
At this moment, Joseph had understood completely.
Joseph guessed that Mathew was anxious and lied to foster his relationship with Kathy.
"If you're okay, I'll leave." Kathy seemed to understand the situation.
Could it be that grandpa had lied to her?
Although she had already divorced Joseph, her relationship with his grandfather had always been
good.
But if grandpa was trying to trick her into coming over, it would be a bit too much.
"I can't even move my two legs." Joseph's tone was somewhat aggrieved.
Kathy looked at him, suspiciously.
"Grandpa wants you to take care of me, so don't blame him." He was able to see that Kathy was angry.
Kathy pursed her lips, still didn't say anything.
"I should go back to school." Kathy turned around.
She couldn't be softhearted...
But in the next second, a bang sounded behind her. Kathy turned around and saw Joseph fell on his
back...
His pose caused Kathy to burst into laughter.
It was hilarious!
Dr Joseph, who was always gentle and polite, was now sitting on the floor in a mess with two large
plaster casts.
She turned around to help him up.
But as soon as her hand touched Joseph's arm, he pulled her down, and she had to fall into his arms.
She could only squat cautiously because she was afraid of bumping into his wounds.
"You have to get up." Kathy restrained her laugh and looked at him worriedly.
But Joseph just held her in his arms, sniffing her body's sense and didn't let go for a long time.
Kathy was held tightly by him, and the strength of his embrace was going to crush her.
She froze, wishing that this moment could stay for a long time.
The feeling of being in Joseph's arms was always relieving.
But the silence didn't last too long, perhaps she heard something in the room, and soon a doctor came
in.
"Mr Joseph..."
