In the following days, Joseph was busy doing his job everyday and occasionally went out for a meal
with Kathy. With this, a week’s time passed.
This time, the holiday in Ocean University had finished and Kathy contacted Professor Watson.
Benedict Watson had already received her notice of withdrawal. He was also helping her to resume her
school status, but it took time.
Kathy could only wait.
City B’s winter came earlier and Kathy stood in front of the window. She looked at the snowy city view,
she really wanted to play with snow.
City N’s climate was comparatively warmer so it is hard to experience such snowy days.
Joseph knew what was Kathy thinking and he walked towards her then hugged her from behind. His
big hands covered her cold small hands. He said, “If you want, we can go to snow hill for a few days.”
“Can we?” Kathy looked at Joseph surprisingly.
He had a lot of work to do now and normally till one or two o’ clock. Could he allocate some time to
spend with her...
But Joseph said firmly, “I will arrange.”
That night, Joseph made a plan immediately and it was located at XL Snow Hill in Country B. The
itinerary was quite relaxing but Kathy looked at the guide and added the journey to see the sunset as
well as sea of clouds.
Joseph’s plan was going skiing and visiting the hot spring. Kathy had a look and said worryingly, “We
do not have any equipment.”
Furthermore, she did not know how to ski...
“John will send those equipment here later.” Joseph ordered earlier.
Kathy smiled as it was assured. It seemed like she would never have to worry as long as Joseph was
there.
The departing time was the next day and Kathy was looking forward to it. She had a good sleep that
night.
At this time, Joseph received a call from Veronica.
“Brother, Ella is in the hospital.”
“It is not my business.” Joseph said indifferently.
“I just want to inform you that her situation is not good. The neurologist said that she needs a professor
in neurosurgery and you are her attending physician before this...” Veronica’s voice became softer
because she could clearly feel Joseph’s anger.
“I will not take over her.”
“I know.”
The next day, Kathy woke up early and wore a thick coat for the outing.
Joseph took off his suit and wore a casual trench coat. He was displaying the temperament of a mature
man and also a handsome guy.
It was already night when they were halfway up the snow hill. The entire journey was bumping but for
Kathy, her curiosity on vacation is stronger than the discomfort. She was very happy all the time.
Joseph also had a lovely smile on his handsome face from the beginning to the end.
After checking in the hotel, they held their hands and walked around there.
At night, the garden behind the hotel was very lively. There was a bonfire set by someone and
everyone there was sitting besides it, eating barbeque, drinking wine and chatting with each other. The
hill in the night was quiet but it was bustling at the camping site. This site was very bright in the dark
surroundings.
Because of the night breeze, the fire was burning strongly. The light from the moon reflected by the
snowy ground gave a clearer look on the hills far away.
When the tourists realized that there were two people passing by, some enthusiastic ones waved at
them.
“We get to know each other because everyone comes here for a vacation. Do you want to chat with
each other?”
Originally, Kathy’s personality was slightly introverted but it would be more comfortable to open the
heart during an outing.
She looked at Joseph. He usually listened to her.
The crowd gave two seats to them. When Kathy and Joseph sat down, the light from the fire gave a
clear look on their handsome appearance. Suddenly, there were lots of exclamations from the crowd.
“You guys are too perfectly matched. Are you a celebrity?” Joseph’s handsome appearance would be
the focus at anywhere and anytime.
Joseph looked at Kathy and hugged her waist, asking her to sit closer to him.
It really envied others!
“He... can be counted as half a celebrity.” Kathy helped Joseph to answer.
“Could you be a model?” Someone guessed.
Kathy shook her head because Joseph’s was a chairman now... Kathy did not want to expose him
subconsciously.
It was because she watched lots of news regarding the kidnapping of the rich.
It should be kept at a low profile.
Eventually, everyone guessed and someone shouted, “I remember! He is Joseph, the famous chief
doctor in neurology!”
“Finally today can have a look at the real person... My family member falls into sick and wants to queue
for him but in vain.”
Suddenly, everyone surrounded Joseph and kept asking for medical knowledge. Joseph behaved
politely as usual but Kathy was already sleepy. Joseph held her hand and stood up.
“My wife and I are going back to rest. Everyone have fun tonight.”
The crowd looked at Joseph and Kathy reluctantly, but after all, they were here to travel and should not
be interrupted.
Kathy yawned for a few times and she felt uncomfortable without knowing why.
When returned to the hotel, she slept and Joseph smiled helplessly. After replying to emails, he hugged
Kathy. He was shocked by the high temperature of her body.
She was like feeling cold and going straight into his arms, “Oh, don’t feel well...”
When he realized, he panicked and quickly asked her, “Kathy, where do you feel uncomfortable?”
She just wanted to speak but her throat was tight and her red lips were extremely dry.
The next time that Kathy woke up was the next day’s afternoon and she felt lacking energy. It seemed
like she just experienced a long-lasting illness.
In her dream, she suffered from cancer and could not resist from undergoing chemotherapy. The hair
dropped and she was ugly...
Then, she could not remember anymore.
Kathy knocked at his dizzy head and Joseph came in. He swept away the snow flakes on his body and
came towards her to test the temperature at her forehead, “The fever is gone, do you feel better? Do
you want me to bring you to eat something?”
Kathy was really hungry and all the food was her favourite. Throughout the meal time, she kept eating
and did not speak anything.
Until someone snatched the bowl of crab dumplings that she finished half way.
Kathy knocked the table angrily, showing her dissatisfactory. Joseph took the bowl and remained silent.
He just looked at her like that.
Kathy compromised eventually and wiped the oil stains at the corner of her lips, the last step of the
dining session.
The car was stopped outside the restaurant. When Kathy rode on the car, she felt powerless and laid
on Joseph’s arms.
“Are you tired?”
“Not bad.” Kathy replied with as least words as possible then turned her head. After a while, she said, “I
want to go back.”
Joseph raised his eyebrows and looked at her gloomy look. It was a far cry from her look at the
beginning of vacation.
“It’s rare to come to the snow hill. If you go back without playing, you may not have a chance next
time.”
Kathy thought seriously and said arrogantly, “Then you go to play, I go back.”
Joseph frowned and only smiled after a while, “I know a good place that you definitely love. We go
back tomorrow morning, can we?”
