Looking at the woman in his arms with a complicated expression, Joseph hugged her tightly
unconsciously and his eyes darkened, "Have dinner with me first."
Kathy pursed her lips and didn’t want to talk to him, but he had agreed to help her find her brother, so
she wouldn’t pull a long face again.
She just left his arms lazily and bent over to put on her shoes, "Okay."
After a while, she heard Joseph's voice falling in her ears, "We will go back to City N tomorrow, eh?"
Kathy looked down. She didn’t want to agree.
But Reece's case will come to trial, and she was going to appear in court as a witness.
So three days later, even if Kathy was unwilling to leave, she only followed Joseph back to City N.
Before leaving, Jennifer came to see her off.
When she saw Joseph, her face was not good, but Joseph greeted her politely.
"Mom, I will keep investigating Marlon's whereabouts, don't worry."
Jennifer sighed and kept holding her daughter's hand.
It was time to board the plane. Joseph walked over and hugged Kathy, "Mrs Booth, I will take care of
Kathy.”
"Joseph, if you dare to hurt Kathy again, I won't let you go!" Jennifer's tone was cold.
Joseph's face was still gentle, and he smiled faintly, "I will only spoil her."
Hearing that, Kathy frowned, and for a while, she gave a mocking smile.
In the evening, they just returned to the old house of Joseph's family, and the servant had already
prepared dinner.
Kathy kept her head down during the meal, even though the dishes on this table were delicious and all
she loved.
Joseph sat beside her with one arm around her thin waist. Seeing that she had no appetite, he put
down his chopsticks and served her with a bowl of soup.
"Don't you like it?" He frowned and asked in a low voice.
Kathy paused while holding the chopsticks, and looked up at this handsome face in front of her, "It's
okay."
"Joseph, you don't need to be so good to me."
They can’t go back to the past anyway.
Didn't he always think that Veronica died because of her?
Didn’t he take revenge on her?
Of course, she didn't ask him. She was not silly to remind him to toss herself.
He asked her hoarsely, "Don't you like me being so good to you?"
Kathy seemed to stop breathing for a moment, and she pressed her lips without answering.
Now, she didn’t like it.
She would rather Joseph be indifferent to her as before. At least it will keep her awake and stop
indulging in the gentleness of this man.
Joseph looked at her face. She still had the same pure features, but the eyes she looked at him were
no longer tender and meek.
His heart flustered and became more gloomy.
"Kathy, I'm sorry." His fingers gently pinched her chin, his gaze was do sharp as if to look into her soul,
"Can you forgive me?"
He knew it was hard to make up for the harm he caused to her.
But once, he really couldn't let go of those things.
"If I say no, will you stop finding Marlon for me?" Kathy blinked, her eyes flickering.
She was now relying on him, and she naturally understood the times.
Joseph quickly retracted his gaze, "Why don't you eat fish?"
Kathy pursed her lips and said casually, "Too many thorns."
So Joseph moved the plate, held the chopsticks with his slender fingers, and began to help her remove
the fishbone.
Kathy bit her chopsticks and watched his movements. His soft and handsome profile made her heart
hurt suddenly.
...
Reece's case was quickly had judgment. Kathy saw him in court. He seemed to be decadent and thin.
He used to be spirited, but now he was full of stubbles and his face was sallow. He seemed to have a
hard time during this period of time.
After Reece was imprisoned, Bridges Group naturally went through a big change again. Karl took over
the group again and it will take him a long time to stabilize the situation.
After Kathy finished the phone call with her mother, she left the court.
Karl was disappointed enough with Reece. He did not appear in court, but he added the evidence so
that Reece was almost imprisoned for life.
Kathy's mood was very calm. Although she had been with Reece day and night for three years, she
knew him well. He was a person with wild ambition. At this moment, he was completely far away from
her world, but Kathy did not feel relaxed.
One day, she will leave City N completely.
...
The sun was shining outside the villa, and Kathy was bored and reading on the sofa.
There was the sound of a wheelchair moving. Kathy frowned subconsciously, and when she looked up,
she saw Mathew approaching in a wheelchair.
He just stopped one meter away from her.
Mathew was already quite old, with gray hair and not particularly good spirits, but his face was very
majestic.
Kathy was stunned, and soon said politely, "Master Mathew."
She knew that Mathew didn't want to see her. It seemed that Joseph had never let her see Mathew, but
if Mathew comes back City N, and she is by Joseph's side again, they will inevitably meet.
Mathew just stared at her face for a long time. He knew the things about her and Joseph recently, so
he was even more angry.
He grimned coldly, "Your ability is much greater than I thought."
He thought that Veronica's death would make Joseph completely give up this woman, but he didn't.
"You have made me lose a granddaughter, and now you have made me lose a grandson!" Mathew's
hand slowly rubbed the armrest of the wheelchair, "Should I compromise?"
Kathy looked down. "Joseph promised to help me find my brother's whereabouts, so I stayed. Don't
worry. I will leave the day, and you will not see me forever. "
Mathew still smiled coldly, "Oh? So you are with my grandson now, not because you love him, but you
just want to use him. "
"I just want to tell you that you will not lose your grandson." Kathy's face was calm. The servant went
out to buy groceries.
Now, Joseph's bodyguards were all guarding outside, but they dare not stop Mathew.
"Or, do you still want me to leave? The premise is that as long as you help me." Kathy said faintly.
Mathew's eyebrows twitched slightly, and then he said, "I remember you just said that Joseph promised
to help you find your brother. Are you willing to leave?"
Kathy’s pink lips curled up. “He always thought his sister die because of me. So in order to pay
compensation to you, I can leave, and I will find my brother myself."
Half an hour later, Joseph received a call from the butler.
"Master... You said that Ms Kathy cannot go out during this time, but I just came back and found that
Ms Kathy was not there. Is she with you..."
