Looking at herself on the TV’s screen, Kathy laughed out as she was pleased that she looked good on
the TV even without the make-up.
But her joyful moment was spoiled by Joseph right after. “Didn’t you wash your hair before you went out
today?”
Kathy’s face wrinkled. How did she suppose to know that she would be ambushed by a bunch of
reporters when she went out to buy ingredients.
“Mind your own business.” Kathy was irritated.
“You are my wife. Of course you are my business.” Joseph hugged her thin waist.
Kathy didn’t push him away as Mathew was there.
Looking at these two lovey-dovey couples, Mathew smiled.
Due to Kathy’s clarification, the Herbert group suffered a great impact, the recovering stock priced once
again fell to the bottom.
This time, it was up to Peter to see if he had the ability to alter the situation.
Kathy didn’t pay attention to these things. She lived peacefully during the days of her suspension.
Joseph was usually busy but he would come home at night. Kathy visited Angela occasionally but
Joseph wasn’t with her, hence Angela was quite dissatisfied.
“Kathy, you are now a celebrity in our neighbourhood.” Angela patted her thigh excitedly.
Kathy grew up in Anlene District since she was young, everyone in the neighbourhood knew her well
and knew that she was married to an amazing man through the news.
“Mum, Joseph and I want to keep a low profile.”
“It’s good to keep a low profile. I’m quite happy for both of you now. I don’t ask for any grand wedding.
Seeing you guys living peacefully and happily is more than enough. After all, companion is the most
beautiful love.”
Angela’s words made Kathy laugh, “Thanks, mum.”
After leaving, Kathy walked to the nearby mall. She had a date with Alexia tonight. They hadn’t seen
each other for a week. Kathy wanted to ask her about the investigation progress also.
Kathy went there by walking it was nearby. She stopped by at a corner as she felt like she was tailed by
someone.
She blocked the woman when she came over.
Wasn’t she Sammy?
“Auntie Champs, what do you want to do again?” Kathy said it in an unpleasant tone.
She still not yet got over the trauma from the kidnapping incidents last time.
The bodyguards who were protecting Kathy under the shadow showed up soon.
Sammy couldn’tapproach her.
“Kathy, I have no other choice, please don’t frame Peter anymore.” Sammy said with tears rolling on
her cheek.
She used to dress elegantly with delicate make-up but she looked aging when she cried.
Kathy’s eyebrows slightly twitched. Although Sammy treated her well back then, people changed as
time flowed.
“I didn’t frame him, auntie, please don’t stalk me anymore.” Kathy said in a deep voice.
“How could it be? I know that you were so in love with Peter back then but he’s going to be a father.
Kathy, just give it up.”
Kathy’s patience was draining, she respected Sammy as an elder, but this respect should be based on
mutual trust.
Kathy took a deep breath, she said with a cold tone, “Tell those words to Peter.”
Kathy ignored her as soon as she finished her words.
Sammy looked up, her malicious intent emerged from the bottom of her eyes. She suddenly took out a
knife and grabbed Kathy’s wrist, the tip of knife was pointing at Kathy’s neck.
Two bodyguards nearby immediately rushed over, but Kathy was hijacked by Sammy, they didn’t dare
to make a move.
“Auntie Champs, you’re crazy!” Kathy’s eyes widened, trying to push Sammy away.
“Yes, I’m crazy! You didn’t know how much Peter had suffered all these years. The Herbert’s family
looks down on him no matter how much effort he puts in…”
Kathy frowned, “We broke up long time ago. His affairs have nothing to do with me…”
“How can it be nothing to do with you? He hardly took over the Herbert’s Group, but he was seduced
by you again. Kathy, Peter never do anything that hurt you…Why did you frame him like this…”
Sammy was agitated, her hand was trembling, the tip of knife had cut Kathy slightly.
Kathy was in so much pain that she could barely stand, but Sammy was clutching her deadly.
The bodyguards had informed Joseph, but it would took him at least half an hour to rush from the
hospital.
“Auntie Champs, calm down.”
“Kathy, go and make it clear with the reporters, tell them that you are the one who interfere Peter’s
marriage and pester him…” Sammy instructed.
Kathy bit her lips, “Okay, I promise.”
“Really?” Sammy’s face showed joy.
“Yes, I promise. Auntie Champs, please let go of me, I’ll go to tell the reporter right now.” Kathy looked
at her with a frank look.
“Are you bluffing? Kathy, you must promise to clarify this matter…” Sammy doubted.
“I promise.” Kathy quietly passed a signal to the bodyguard through a gaze.
Sammy had let her guard down and prepared to call the reporters.
When she loosened up one of her arm, the bodyguards moved immediately and subdued Sammy
swiftly. Kathy buckled her wrist and pushed her against the wall.
Sammy’s expression changed dramatically, “Kathy, how dare you cheat me!”
“Auntie Champs, I’m always telling the truth, the one who has been lying was Peter.” Kathy looked at
her indifferently.
“No, you’re lying!”
Kathy didn’t think that she could convince Sammy, she let go of her hand as Sammy was already under
bodyguard’s control.
But in the blink of eyes, Sammy went wild and stabbed towards Kathy.
Kathy couldn’t dodge it, and when she was about to hurt her arm, an arm reached over and blocked
away the knife from Kathy, the knife was thrust into Joseph’s palm!
She looked up and stunned, Joseph’s hand was bleeding.
The scarlet liquid was reflected in Kathy’s eyes. Her eyes were red, her heart ached suddenly, her body
stiffened when her gaze met Joseph’s face.
“What now…”
Joseph’s face were deep and fearful, staring at Sammy with his dark eyes, quite intimidating.
Sammy was terrified by Joseph’s glance, her whole body couldn’t stop trembling, she couldn’t move a
bit as her hands were fastened by Joseph.
The bodyguards quickly kicked down Sammy and took control of her.
Kathy was with Joseph in the ambulance, looking at Joseph’s bleeding hand, she couldn’t hold back
and cried out in a low voice.
“Why did you block that for me?”
It was so dangerous back then.
“Otherwise, Mrs Joseph will get hurt.” Joseph said it with a doting tone.
Kathy leaned on her shoulder, her eyes bleed in pain, her heart was deadly hurt.
She’d rather be the one who got hurt.
“You can’t injured you hand. You’re a doctor, you hand is important. How could you hurt yourself…”
Kathy murmured.
“Don’t cry, Baby.” Joseph gazed at her gently and hugged her tightly with his uninjured left hand.
Kathy raised her eyes, her body got tingly all over when Joseph called her “Baby”.
It sounded so intimate.
Joseph landed his kiss on her lips, overbearingly grasped her breath.
Kathy didn’t resist, but actually wanted the kiss to last forever.
