Kathy was in a state of astonishment as if she was trapped in a nightmare, she could barely walk.
There was a strong scent of blood that triggered her smell. It was Julian's blood, it was terrifying.
The sniper aimed to the slight right of Julian's heart. Even though it was not fatal, but Julian still fainted.
All of a sudden, Kathy's wrist was being held by a big warm hand. When she looked up, she stood
excitedly then rushed into Joseph's arms.
At this moment, she finally let go of all the emotions that she was holding. She was trembling in fear but
when she hugged Joseph, she calmed down.
Her eyes were already red. She was too frightened to look at Julian. Joseph then left with Kathy while
his arm was around her, “Kathy, I’m always here.”
She absent-mindedly nodded her head. She already knew that.
She trusted Joseph.
When they left the apartment, Lincoln Fletcher and Johnson came to check on them. They were
relieved when they saw Joseph accompanying Kathy out of the apartment.
There was blood on Kathy’s arms. Lincoln volunteered to send her to the hospital because he thought
she was hurt, but Joseph stopped him.
“That is Julian’s blood. Please send him to the hospital and clean this place.”
They carried Kathy to the car.
When they arrived at Joseph Bay, Kathy instantly went to take a shower. Joseph wanted to come in,
but Kathy stopped him.
The blood on her arm was there for quite a long time, even the shower water was dyed blood red. She
could not help but recalled the time when Julian fainted next to her. Although she knew that he would
be fine, she was still traumatized.
Joseph already had a thorough plan.
But she was afraid.
After showering for an hour, she finally came out. Joseph kept standing in front of the door. There was
tiredness that could not be concealed on his handsome face.
Within a second, Joseph dragged her into his arms while breathing heavily onto her scalp. He said with
a hoarse voice, “Kathy, are you afraid?”
Kathy forced out a smile and said, “I am fine. Everything is settled, right...”
”I am worried.” Joseph expressed his emotions in front of Kathy.
He was very calm when he was confronting Julian. But when he was with Kathy, his self-control
vanished.
“Joseph, I know that you will save me, so I am not afraid,” Kathy said aloud and solemnly.
It was already in the early morning, but Kathy was not sleepy. She had a bad day.
Joseph, who was next to her was encountering the same matter.
Both of them looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter.
“Kathy, let's have a vacation tomorrow.”
"Of course, why don't we go now?” Kathy naughtily winked.
Joseph instantly made a call. After half an hour, the private plane had already landed on the roof of
Joseph Bay.
“Wait! I heard my coworkers in the hospital said that the hotel in City W has been fully booked recently
because of the National Day holidays...” Kathy realized they did not make any reservation.
“Don’t worry. I will not let my girlfriend not have a place to stay.”
He then held Kathy's hand and boarded the plane.
The sun slowly brightened the sky, Kathy did not blink while looking through the window. She finally felt
a lot relieved.
She thought she was still not sleepy yet. But the aircraft was too comfortable, she fell asleep while
leaning in Joseph's arms.
By the time she woke up, she was already in the hotel.
The moment she opened her eyes, she was lying in Joseph's arms. Her eyesight matched with Joseph,
it was pampering.
Kathy greeted with a sweet smile, "Good morning, Mr. Joseph."
She turned around and realized her cheek was very close to Joseph's crotch.
Kathy froze for a minute facing this sudden situation.
Her face reddened immediately and she sat up straight. She angrily looked at Joseph, "You...you did it
on purpose?"
"I did not do anything at all." Joseph seemed innocent.
"Besides, I am the victim."
He implied that Kathy was the one who rubbed him first.
Kathy was embarrassed, she punched him with her little fist.
Joseph held her little fist, he smirked, "So how do we deal with this?"
"Deal? Do you still want me to help you with that?" Kathy humped her cheek up.
Joseph loved the way she looked when she was mad.
"I do think so."
Kathy ignored him.
She turned her head away and was astounded by the breathtaking scenery.
Outside of the crystal clear French window, the sea melted into the sky and created a magnificent view.
Kathy could not move her sight away from the splendid scenery.
The room that they were living in was on the sea. The blue sea water was just right in front of Kathy.
She walked towards the window and everything was just spectacular.
Suddenly there was an arm around Kathy's waist. Joseph's voice flowed into her ears, "This is an
island in City W. It is still not completely open to the public yet. Do you know what is the name of this
island?"
"What is it?"
"Kathy Island."
"I have not heard of it before." Kathy frowned.
City W was a city for tourists, there were a lot of islands. But this was the first time she had ever heard
of it.
"This island was named after you," said Joseph with a gentle voice.
At this moment, Kathy flinched.
Her name?
Kathy Island?
But...
But why was it named after her?
"Joseph, is this island yours?" Kathy looked at him with a shocked look.
Joseph smiled deeper, "Now this island is all yours."
"W-what?"
Kathy immediately pushed Joseph away. She earnestly looked at Joseph, "What kind of joke is this?"
Joseph hugged Kathy again, "When have I ever lied to you?"
Kathy went silent for a while.
Only Joseph who was as rich as Croesus can afford presents like this.
"When did you buy this?" Kathy calmed down and asked.
"Half a month ago."
"Why would you buy me an island..."
"I just simply bought it," Joseph said with a calm tone.
Kathy was speechless.
"Do not waste your money anymore. So, this place is still far from developed yet?" Kathy was curious.
"Yes, there is only one hotel here. It is not open for the public even during weekdays."
"I planned to hold our betrothal ceremony here. That is why I bought this island," Joseph said earnestly.
Kathy had already accepted the fact that she had an island. Kathy island... what a great name!
"Please don't do this kind of silly thing anymore. If you have money, just give it to me. Don't just simply
buy unnecessary things!" Kathy said with a straight face and a slightly angry tone.
"Yes, I will listen to everything you say, future Mrs. Joseph."
Joseph pressed her against the French window and kissed her gently on her lips. With her back facing
the blue sky and sea, the temperature in the room was slowly rising...
...
The next day, Kathy planned to watch the sunrise. But even though she had set the alarm the night
before, she still woke up late.
When she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
There was an azure sky above the cerulean sea outside the window with the sunlight shining brightly.
Kathy and Joseph held hands and were having a casual walk on the beach. Joseph was wearing his
swimsuit that exposed his abs and muscular chest, Kathy was a bit shy to look at him. She peeked a
few times and moved her sight away to her snow-white feet on the beach.
