Benedict explained the patient’s situation to Kathy. But Kathy made mistakes frequently, making him a
little angry as well.
“Kathy, what’s wrong with you today?”
Kathy bit her lips and said with chagrin, “Sorry professor, I’m fine.”
Walking out of the ward, Joseph stood at the door, Kathy didn’t even glance at him.
Benedict did understand and looked at Kathy, “Take care of your own business first, then come back to
me.”
Kathy looked at the handsome man in front of her and didn’t make a sound for a long time.
“Do you have another thing?” Only after a while did she murmur.
Joseph clasped her wrist and took her directly to his office.
“Don’t take Grandpa’s words to heart.” Joseph frowned.
Listening to Mathew’s tone just now, he knew that Mathew did not like Kathy now. So, he could imagine
how unpleasant the words he had said to Kathy on Monday to make her refuse to answer his call.
“I didn’t take it to heart.” Kathy was duplicitous.
Holding her head, Joseph frowned. He had never had any experience in coaxing women, and at this
moment, Kathy was angry, so he was a bit annoyed.
“Joseph, it is reasonable for grandfather to suspect me, after all, Julian is his grandson.” Kathy calmly
said.
She really… could understand.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t handle this issue properly.”
“Joseph, it has nothing to do with you. If this matter can be investigated clearly, then that’s the best. If it
cannot be investigated, then there is nothing that can be done.”
Mathew was already prejudiced against her, and at present, whatever she did would only make him
annoyed.
She had…took it easy.
Mathew could not be irritated now, so she would not argue with him to affect his mood.
“I will take care of Julian.”
“What time do you get off work tonight?” His voice was a little milder.
“It’s going to be about nine o’clock at night.”
“Come over to Joseph Bay tonight? Hmm?”
“I promised mother to go back to the Booth family.” Kathy was intentionally avoiding Joseph.
Joseph frowned and showed the dissatisfaction under his eyes.
“Kat, don’t avoid me, we are together. We can communicate about anything, and I want to know what
you think.”
Kathy raised her eyes, and her eyes were inexplicably wet.
“I am indeed not in a good mood, and I want to be alone.” Kathy was said frankly.
Being slandered, whoever else would have a temper. She could not be indifferent.
“I’ll pick you up from work at night.” Joseph bent down and kissed her lips gently.
Back at the Joseph’s Group, Joseph instructed John to come in.
“Can the hospital’s surveillance be restored?”
John shook his head, “It’s not just that the external network blocked the surveillance cameras, the
cardiology department’s surveillance cameras have all been destroyed, there was no record of last
night at all.”
Joseph’s face was sullen, and his face gradually turned gloomy.
John did not dare to speak again.
“Check all the cameras outside the hospital, Julian came into the hospital last night with a woman
dressed as a nurse, check the identity of that woman.”
“Understood.”
Nine o’clock, Kathy left the hospital and saw the familiar car at a glance.
She got into the car but saw that the car was not driving towards the road to the Booth family.
“Where to?”
“To eat first.”
The next second, Kathy’s stomach growled…
Joseph consistently understood her tastes and brought her over to a hot pot restaurant near AN Road.
Due to the previous surgery, she was hospitalized for a long time. Kathy had not eaten hot pot for a
long time!
Once she entered the door, her mood instantly improved.
Joseph had booked in advance. The two of them entered a private room that could accommodate ten
people.
She knew that Joseph did not eat spicy food, so she ordered a double flavour hot pot.
When Kathy finished ordering and handed the menu to Joseph, he said in a pampering manner, “You
help me to decide what to order for me.”
“Oh, alright.” She knew what Joseph liked to eat anyway.
The two of them had formed a tacit understanding with each other long ago during these two years.
At this moment, the sound of a vibrating phone came, and it was Joseph who had an incoming call.
“Brother, grandpa insists on being discharged from the hospital and won’t take his medication after he
comes home, and no one can persuade him. Can you come back and persuade him…”
Hearing this, Joseph put down his phone, the coldness under his eyes spread.
Kathy did not know what was said on the phone, but Joseph’s face was gloomy, and she asked with
concern, “What’s the matter?”
“Grandpa has been privately discharged from the hospital.”
“Then you should go back and take a look.” Kathy was still worried.
Even though grandpa’s attitude towards her was not good.
Joseph nodded his head but still sent Kathy back to the Booth family first, before back to the Joseph’s
residence.
When Kathy came back, she was inevitably a bit down.
“Kathy, who bullied you?” Jennifer Booth put down her teacup and looked at her daughter with concern.
“Who dares to bully me?” Kathy forced a smile.
“Don’t force a smile, come over to mother. Tell mother, what happened?”
Kathy looked at Jennifer, and she had felt the care Jennifer had given her over the past half-year.
Although she was separated from Jennifer for the past twenty-five years of her life, now, Kathy knew
that she had been trying to make up for her motherly love.
“Did Joseph bully you?”
“No, it’s just some academic stuff.”
“Did Mr Watson give you a hard time?”
“Neither.”
“Then it has to do with Joseph.”
“Mr Mathew is not well lately.” Kathy slowly said.
“Mr Mathew is old, and people inevitably have some physical problems when they are old.” Jennifer
lamented.
Kathy did not say anything, but Jennifer looked at her daughter’s worried look, she could not feel
relieved.
She dialed her assistant’s phone, “Check the recent situation of Mathew.”
The Joseph’s family.
When Joseph came back, Veronica and Quinn were in the living room with an annoyed face.
“Brother, you finally came back.” Veronica pouted.
“Grandpa can’t be discharged from the hospital yet.” Joseph said in a deep voice, “Who approved it?”
“It was grandpa who discharged himself without permission, and he informed the dean.” Quinn walked
over.
“Grandpa is angry with me, and he shouldn’t want to see me.”
“Brother, what did you and grandpa argue about again?”
“Julian wanted to take action on grandpa, but grandpa suspected Kathy.” Joseph said in a deep voice.
“Kathy was there last night?” Quinn asked.
“Well, she stopped Julian.”
“Grandpa and Kathy have always had a good relationship. How could he suspect Kathy?”
“It’s because of me.”
Veronica and Quinn looked at each other as if something had happened that they didn’t know about.
“Grandpa refused to take his medicine and refused to open the door for the maid to bring him food. He
locked himself up.” Veronica said.
That’s why she had to call her brother back.
“He’ll open the door when he’s hungry.” Joseph said faintly.
Veronica and Quinn were speechless.
“I’m afraid that grandpa’s body can’t hold up anymore.”
“Just give me the key.” After a while, Joseph instructed the butler.
Mathew was sitting on the balcony with a large bottle of white wine and a box of cigarettes next to him.
When Joseph came in, the strong smell of alcohol came to his nose.
“You don’t want to live anymore, do you?” Joseph was so furious that he went over and took away the
glass of wine from Mathew’s hand.
