Kathy looked down at the ring on her hand while Joseph’s large palm was wrapping around her small
hand, and on his middle finger, he was wearing a ring as well.
“Joseph! I don’t even agree to marry you!” Recovering from her surprise, Kathy glared at him angrily.
For Joseph, she was completely charming and attractive.
Pulling her into his arm, Joseph then gave her a kiss on her ear while murmuring, “Kathy, if you don’t
want to get married, I can wait, but you can only be mine.”
Joseph’s words which were domineering made Kathy couldn’t hold herself back to smile at him.
Unknowingly, she was again pressed onto the sofa by Joseph. Her bright eyes looked at Joseph and
she was counting inside her heart that two months had passed since she and Joseph had fallen in love.
Although the engagement was fast, it seemed like there was no way to refuse, then accepted it!
She then wrapped her arms around Joseph’s neck, “Oops, you cheat me and own me again!”
“Cheat? When do I cheat you?” Joseph discontentedly pinched her chin.
“Isn’t? I don’t even say a yes and you have put the ring on me!”
“Well, it is also a skill to cheat, isn’t?” The smile on Joseph’s face grew bigger and bigger.
Hammering his chest, Kathy said, “Yes, yes, yes, Professor Joseph is the most capable!”
As the night gradually fall, Joseph kissed on Kathy and both of them were touching and playing with
each other for a while, it was getting dark outside.
By the time the two left the room and had a light snack at the Chinese restaurant, it was just about time
for dinner.
Just after ordering, Veronica’s phone call came through.
“Brother, when are you coming back?” Veronica asked apprehensively.
She didn’t know what had happened yesterday as she didn’t attend the dinner.
However, grandpa had been in a bad mood since he came back and brother hadn’t come back yet, so
she felt that there should be something wrong.
And just a moment ago, grandpa had dropped the word to inform Joseph to come back for dinner
together, so she could only call her brother.
“Tonight.”
“Can it be now?”
“Two hours later. What does grandpa make fuss about?” Joseph frowned.
“Nothing, he means to wait for you coming back for dinner together.”
“Then let him wait, you eat first.”
Veronica went speechless.
After hanging up the phone embarrassingly, Veronica became more nervous when she looked at her
grandpa who sat at the main seat.
Although grandpa usually doted on her, Joseph was the most beloved grandson and yet, she was
unable to coax him as her brother.
“Grandpa, brother will be back later, why don’t we eat first?”
“Wait for him coming back first!” Mathew showed a cold face.
Two hours later, Joseph was back to the old house on time.
The housekeeper was greatly relieved when he saw Joseph coming back and said, “Young master, you
are back!”
Joseph was expressionless and he directly walked towards the dining room.
Veronica was very hungry, when she heard the footsteps, she thought it was the maids so she ordered
them, “Reheat the food.”
Only when she looked up and it was her brother…
She immediately pushed her wheelchair over joyfully, “Brother, you are back!”
Still, Mathew showed his cold face and never looked at his grandson when he heard the words.
Joseph then responded, he was already full and did not intend to eat.
“Hurry up and eat, didn’t I instruct you?” Joseph said with a deep voice.
Veronica pouted aggrievedly, grandpa was the elder, and the elder hadn’t eaten yet, how could she as
the junior dare to eat…
Upon seeing Joseph was going back to his room, Veronica then pulled him back and said, “Brother, sit
down and accompany grandpa.”
Joseph looked at Mathew, he had not eaten yet.
Joseph stepped away and walking towards the dining table.
Instead, he just sat down next to Veronica’s seat and reached over with his chopstick to refill her bowl.
Veronica was really hungry but grandpa hadn’t eaten, so she was a little embarrassed.
The next second, Mathew stood up with his crutches and went back to his room without eating
anything.
Joseph then ordered with a deep voice, “Veronica, hurry up and eat.”
Lowering down her head, she didn’t care about it and started to eat.
She then asked with concern, “What’s the fuss with you and grandpa again?”
“He locked me up with Ella.”
“Puff---” Veronica couldn’t hold herself back and spurted all the food out.
She looked at her brother in amazement, he would never joke around.
So this…matter was true?
“Ella? How could grandpa do that? Doesn’t he like Ella?”
When brother was getting to marry Ella before, grandpa was so angry that he didn’t even attend the
wedding and only stayed in country C.
Joseph didn’t say anything but his face was cold.
“Brother, did you do anything then?” Veronica asked nervously.
“Of course not! I’m not interested in Ella.”
Finishing his words, he then went up to the second floor, walking towards the study room where
Mathew was and he pushed the door in.
No one spoke but sitting face to face.
“Grandpa, for your information, I will engage with Kathy next week.”
“I don’t allow it.” Mathew rejected it directly.
Joseph had expected this and said with a cold voice, “I don’t need your approval.”
Finishing his words, he then turned around and left the room.
Mathew called out to him, “Stop there!”
He walked towards Joseph with his crutches, “You are already the chairman of the Joseph’s Group but
you are holding a hospital position because of a woman and going there weekly to treat patients, is that
like a joke?”
“I don’t think there is a problem.” Joseph’s face was cold and indifferent.
“I think there is a problem! As Kathy have such a big influence on you, then I will arrange other woman
for you! The Joseph’s family needs a thoughtful granddaughter-in-law!” Mathew shouted loudly.
Upon hearing those words, Joseph then sneered with his face showing a cold smile, “Grandpa, that is
the woman the Joseph’s family needs, not me, my marriage is not up to others to decide for me!”
Leaving those words, Joseph then angrily slammed the door and left.
Mathew was furious, holding on his crutches for a long time before he could stand firmly against the
wall.
Anyway, he had to get Joseph out of the hospital!
Veronica was outside when Joseph came out.
She had heard a little of the argument between the two.
She would definitely stand by her brother’s side, as for her opinion, she also didn’t want her marriage to
be controlled.
“Come with me.” Upon seeing Veronica, Joseph then brought her to his room.
Joseph handed over a piece of information, “These are few famous universities overseas, see which
one you would like to go to.”
“Brother, what do you mean? You want me to go overseas?” Veronica asked surprisingly.
Joseph nodded, “Well, I want you to study abroad.”
“But I don’t have that intention…I am going to apply for the Ocean University.”
Zofia Marshall was at the Ocean University, and if she got into the university, the two of them would be
able to see each other more often.
“Veronica, listen to brother.”
Veronica was silent while somewhat, she hesitated a while.
Thinking that if she went abroad, wouldn’t she and Quinn Davis… be in long distance relationship?
No, it was a transnational love!
Thinking of this, Veronica resisted, “Brother, I am not going abroad, I want to stay in City N.”
“Do you really think so?”
“Yes!” Veronica nodded solemnly.
Joseph didn’t say anymore, he just suggested it.
If Veronica wanted to stay in City N, Quinn and Joseph would do their best to protect her.
