“Yes.” Joseph answered.
“You're so annoying.” Kathy muttered, trying to be angry, but she couldn't.
Looking at Joseph seriously, she said clearly and slowly,” Don't do this for me again in the future.”
She could find another job.
But Joseph was different.
“I will still do this for you.” Joseph said solemnly.
He was only willing to do anything for Kathy.
“Joseph!” Kathy scowled.
With a fond smile upon his face, he raised Kathy's chin, “Hey, have some food, stop thinking about it
anymore.”
“So, you had some feelings for me at that time?” Kathy asked.
She had many questions now.
Since Joseph did so many things for her from the beginning, was it just because she was Mrs. Joseph?
Even if the other person was Mrs. Joseph, would he still do it?
“Yes.”
Yes?
Kathy's eyes widened suddenly. Did Joseph admit it?
“You say it again, when did you like me.” Kathy looked at the man in front of her without blinking, not
letting go of the slightest emotional change on his face.
But Joseph really...hid it well.
His face didn't change a bit, and he was still warm and gentle when facing her.
“Kathy, it doesn't matter, you just need to know that I like you now.”
Kathy was speechless.
She felt that he was deliberately sidestepping the question.
But what Joseph said really made her very happy.
They went to the hospital after the dinner. Quinn had been staying with Veronica all the time as Zofia
had to go back to the hospital today and left in the morning.
“Hi, Joseph, Kathy.” Veronica greeted.
“Did you finish your physical exam in the morning?” Joseph came in and picked up Veronica's medical
record to look through it.
“Yes, Veronica still can’t feel her legs.” Quinn came over and said, with a gloomy face.
Joseph frowned,” Continue to do the rehabilitation as before when the wound has healed.”
“Joseph, can I still stand up?” Veronica said, not disappointed.
She knew her own condition. In fact, she just wanted to try if she could stand up again.
“You can, trust me.” Joseph walked over and assured her word by word seriously.
Quinn stayed with Veronica, and Joseph brought Kathy to the office. The orthopedist had been waiting
for Joseph in the office to discuss Veronica's condition with him.
Kathy was going to go out, but Joseph clasped his wrists and pulled her to sit next to him.
“You don’t need to leave.”
Kathy was surprised, but the two had already started talking, so Kathy had to sit down.
One of Veronica's leg was a prosthesis, so now it was the other leg that needed treatment. But
because the nerves and bones of the leg were injured, it was very difficult to recover.
However, her leg had recovered somewhat after the previous operation.
But this time Veronica fell and caused the fragile leg tissue to split again, making it very tricky.
But both of them were the most authoritative doctors in orthopedics and neurology, and they discussed
all night and finally thrashed out a feasible plan.
Although Kathy wanted to continue listening and learn from their discussion, Kathy was really so sleepy
and her eyelids kept drooping.
It was not until the next morning that Joseph and the orthopedic doctor ended the discussion. When the
office was quiet, Joseph looked at the woman in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her on the
brow.
“Thanks, Kathy.”
Without rest, Joseph went to Veronica's room.
When Kathy woke up, there was no one in the office.
It was almost noon.
She lowered her face in annoyance, immediately put on her shoes and went out, when Joseph was
walking head-on towards her.
“I will take you to lunch, and then bring you back to school.”
Joseph got Kathy's class schedule long ago and knew that she was going to class in the afternoon.
“How is Veronica?” Kathy asked with concern.
“She is undergoing rehabilitation and will be discharged tomorrow. She will take the adult college
entrance examination next month which cannot be delayed.”
Veronica had been delayed for three years. Joseph could support her and didn't want her to go to work.
But Veronica had always had her own ideals and pursuits, so what he could do as a brother was to
respect and support her.
After passing the ward, Kathy came in and had a conversation with Veronica. The relationship between
them had gotten closer recently. Veronica had a straight temper, but she was easy-going and kind-
hearted.
She had a clear-cut stand on what to love and what to hate, so when she knew that Kathy and Billy had
a sibling relationship, and she couldn't get close to her.
But now, they knew a lot about each other, and the knot in her heart was untied.
After sending Kathy back to school, Joseph went to the Joseph’s Group.
It was late at night when he finished his official business. Lincoln knocked on the door and came in.
“I knew you were still working overtime.” Lincoln sat down on the sofa.
“Yeah.” Putting down the pen, Joseph walked to the bar and opened a bottle of wine first.
Lincoln reported, “Julian hasn’t calmed down recently. Several of his private hospitals are now being
investigated and are temporarily closed. It is estimated that they will lose a lot of money. Tomorrow I will
arrange some reporters to control the public opinion. As long as the patient’s emotions are aroused, HY
Group will definitely be destroyed.”
Joseph listened to him indifferently, and came over with two glasses of wine, sitting gracefully on the
sofa with his long legs folded.
“Julian has already begun to be vigilant, and it will not go well tomorrow.” Joseph frowned.
And about this matter, Reece, the investor behind it, couldn’t be completely indifferent.
“Anyway, the reporters will definitely expose the HY Group's affairs tomorrow, which can deflate the HY
Group first.” Lincoln said with a extremely cold voice.
“Fine.” Joseph responded in a mild mood.
“Are you worried about Veronica?” Lincoln asked.
The relationship between Joseph and Kathy was going well recently, so Veronica was the only one that
Joseph worried about.
“Yes, I want to send her abroad.”
“That's fine, and Quinn is with her, no one can hurt her.”
“What if.” Joseph clenched his fist.
Many things in this world were unpredictable.
…
Kathy didn’t have class on Saturday and came to the Booth family early. Recently, Jennifer had been
asking her to help with the affairs of the Booth Group.
Kathy hadn't been too busy recently and had not participated in the research and development of the
Joseph’s Group anymore, so she helped her mother with the Booth Group's official duties whenever
she had time.
Just early in the morning, the news of the HY Group deceiving patients spread all over the city.
It was reported that the equipments of the HY Group’s private hospitals didn’t meet the requirements,
and the medical practitioners were irregular, defrauding many consumers. At present, the government
had received tens of thousands of tip-offs, and the HY Group had been investigated.
Private hospitals were one of the most important industries of the HY Group, as well as an important
source of profit. But now this industry was almost out of business, and HY Group's operations had also
stalled.
Julian was very annoyed and kept contacting Reece, but it was only his assistant who answered the
phone and said that Reece was not in City N.
Julian sent someone to investigate Reece’s whereabouts and found that Reece’s flight would arrive in
City N at 8 o'clock tonight. He immediately went to the airport and waited for him.
He could only ask Reece for help about this matter of the HY Group.
