“Can we go out now?” Kathy changed the subject.
After putting on her shoes neatly, she walked over to the door and twisted the handle, but it still would
not open.
“Not yet,” replied Joseph who was behind her.
Kathy quirked her eyebrows, “How much longer?”
“You really don't want to be around me? Hmm?” Joseph’s voice became deeper and sounded cold.
Kathy looked at him and said, “Yes,”
On hearing this, the man’s expression became even more terrible.
Kathy sat on the sofa, several meters away from Joseph.
However, she could still clearly feel his anger.
What was he angry about?
Did he really care about her?
...
Half an hour later, a knock on the door could be heard, and Kathy turned around to see John enter.
Noticing that he had the keys in his hand, it was obvious he already knew about this matter.
“Mr. Joseph, Miss Kathy.” John greeted politely.
“Speak now.”
“Mr. Joseph, the shareholders' meeting has started, and Mr Mathew is hosting it.”
After explaining, he quickly handed over the tablet, which was broadcasting the shareholders' meeting
live.
Kathy was packing her bag and planning to leave, but she caught a glimpse of Joseph… actually
standing up!
He actually was able to stand up!
Although his leg that got injured was still wrapped in two casts, he didn't look like a wounded man at all.
Remembering when she hammered him yesterday, he did not have a big reaction.
Did Joseph fake his injury?
Kathy had a feeling of being deceived, her face sank, and she walked over to Joseph.
Then, she picked up the medical case next to him, but there was nothing written on it…
“Joseph, is your leg okay?”
After being asked, the man looked up with a smile in his eyes, “It had already been healed”
“Then why is it still wrapped in a plaster cast?” Kathy was clearly not believing him.
“The cast is just not taken down yet,”
"I don't believe you!" After saying that, Kathy immediately kicked Joseph.
He wailed, then he really fell on the bed.
John stood beside him, not knowing whether to give him a hand…
He did not know if the boss was faking his injury…
“Joseph, don't pretend anymore, you fooled me since the beginning.” Kathy turned her head and left.
But as soon as she turned around, seeing red blood coming out made her stop in her tracks.
Wide-eyed, Kathy immediately squatted down.
Joseph’s leg was really bleeding…
Guilt could be seen in her eyes, “I'm sorry, I'm… going to find a doctor right away.”
Kathy was anxious, she thought that Joseph was really fine.
However…
As her eyes slowly becoming red, Kathy was suddenly at a loss.
John, who was standing at the side, calmly said, “I'll go get the doctor to come over.”
In the hospital room, Kathy looked at Joseph and bit her lip tightly.
“I'm sorry…” she apologized.
“Kathy, I'm fine.” Joseph said in a deep voice.
But just now, Kathy coincidently kicked at his only wound in his body.
“Really?”
Kathy helped him up to the bed, and it was shocking to see that blood had been oozing out.
“Yeah.” Joseph responded, but Kathy was still worried and wanted to remove the plaster cast. At the
same time, the doctor quickly came in.
After seeing the doctor giving medicine to Joseph and helping him redo the cast, Kathy was finally
relieved.
“Please rest more and don't move too much.”
The doctor did not give too many instructions, but Kathy found it hard to calm down every time she
thought about the shock she got when she saw the blood oozing out.
“John, please send Miss Kathy back,” Joseph ordered.
His face was tense and his attention was on the meeting.
Kathy knew she should not have interrupted, but she thought that Joseph had not had breakfast yet
and thought she had better buy him breakfast first.
After Kathy left, the doctor came back.
“Mr. Joseph, I think it's better to remove the cast from this leg, otherwise it's not good for the skin.”
He could not understand why the leg was still wrapped in such a thick plaster cast even though it was
not injured.
“Ok, the cast on the other leg can also be removed, just bandaging it will be fine."
“It’s best that you finally know what’s good for you.” The doctor was relieved.
If he, the attending doctor, had not known that Joseph was only slightly injured, others would have
thought he was seriously injured when they saw him like this…
The Joseph’s Group.
Julian was obviously very surprised to see his grandfather coming over.
Diego, who was standing next to Julian, looked even more gloomy.
Just a moment ago, Julian used Joseph’s serious illness as an excuse to reveal the shares in his hand
again, wanting to take the position of president.
“Julian, an old man like me still have not died, yet you already do not take me seriously!” Matthew said
in an angry voice.
“Grandpa, my brother hasn't come to work for more than half a month, someone has to take over the
Joseph’s Group’s affairs, and I don't think his health condition is suitable for him to continue as
president!” Julian retorted.
“I'm the chairman of the board and I don't agree with this matter.”
“Grandpa, I'm also your grandson, you can't be so biased, and the shares in my hands are not less
than Joseph.”
Matthew looked at his grandson in front of him and was furious, “Fifteen percent of the shares in my
hands are under Joseph’s name, plus the twenty percent of the shares he originally had, what else do
you have to say!”
After hearing about that, Julian’s face turned pale white, how can grandpa still have shares in his
hands…
Wasn't it already transferred to Joseph years ago?
“Julian, the new medicine produced by the Joseph’s Group recently is selling very well, this is all
because of your brother's ability, did you really think you can top that? I didn't let you to come back to
make trouble!” Matthew leaned heavily on his crutches.
Although he was already quite old, he still emits a strong aura.
“Dad, isn't his brother sick...”
“You bastard, he's fine!”
After saying that, he instructed his assistant to video call Joseph.
It showed Joseph at the hospital, but he was in great spirits.
“Joseph, how is your illness?” The moment when he saw Joseph, Matthew's expression became
gentler.
“Grandpa, I am now getting ready to leave the hospital.”
“Well, what do you have in mind for the Joseph’s Group in the second half of the year.”
“I'll have my secretary come over later, everything has been planned during the time I was in the
hospital.”
“Joseph, don't push yourself too much, are you really able to get out from the hospital?” Diego, who
had been quiet, asked in a deep voice.
But Joseph had already stood up, and his expression looked much better. Then, he smiled saying,
“Does Mr. Diego thought that I have some serious illness? It’s just some external wounds, I'm still
completed my work during the time I was hospitalized, and I'll report to you all after I come back to the
Joseph’s Group."
“Great, I'm going to dismiss Julian as vice president now, Joseph, you may cast your vote."
“Grandpa, what are you talking about!” Julian stood up anxiously.
He had trapped Joseph in the hospital room, so how did he get in touch with Matthew.
And… how come grandpa suddenly came back too!
This all took him by surprise!
“I agree.”
“Joseph, what are you talking about!" Julian looked at him angrily.
“I agree with grandpa's decision to remove you from your position.”
With that, Joseph immediately turned off the screen, and he instructed John, “Keep an eye on Julian.”
When Kathy returned, Joseph was already ready to leave the hospital.
Seeing his legs covered in his pants, Kathy was stunned.
“You…”
