When she saw the news that Joseph was be teaching one of her classes, she patted Kathy on the head.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFelling love struck?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStop speaking nonsense\u2026 I am not love struck!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAren\u2019t you looking at a photo of Joseph? If he wears a suit to class, he will look very handsome\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was speechless.<\/p>\n<p>Another image of him appeared in her mind. Joseph wearing a smart suit, with his rimless glasses, and then his sharp and charming eyes that fall onto Kathy\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Kathy\u2019s face was turning even redder\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Gosh, what was she thinking about?<\/p>\n<p>Joseph teaching one of her classes had nothing to do with her!<\/p>\n<p>She needed to look at something else to distract her attention away from him.<\/p>\n<p>She picked up her phone next to her and without thinking opened the internet browser.<\/p>\n<p>What caught her eye was the news of the bankruptcy of the Herbert\u2019s Group.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy paused on this and read the content of the news. Recently both the production of the Herbert\u2019s Group main pharmaceutical drug and the market share of this drug had been declining. However at the same time the Joseph\u2019s Group products almost monopolize the whole of the pharmaceutical market. This was definitely a fatal blow for the Herbert\u2019s Group.<\/p>\n<p>At present the Herbert\u2019s Group don\u2019t have enough capital, and the Hilton Group is just standing by and not doing anything, therefore it seems that the Herbert\u2019s Group will really be unable to survive this crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Bankrupt\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Kathy\u2019s face sunk for she did not expect that the consequences would be so serious.<\/p>\n<p>Was Joseph targeting the Herbert\u2019s Group?<\/p>\n<p>Although no journalist dared to write this directly, it was clear that the report wanted to express this meaning.<\/p>\n<p>Her phone then suddenly started ringing, it was an unknown number.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy frowned and then answered the phone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, you bitch!\u201d As soon as Herbert started speaking he was cursing her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy moved the phone away from her took a deep breath and then said, \u201cMiss Herbert, when will you be able to learn to control your emotions?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Herbert\u2019s Group is bankrupt; do you really think that I can just sit still calmly?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat does the bankruptcy of the Herbert\u2019s Group have to do with me?\u201d Kathy said flatly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph is clearly targeting the Herbert\u2019s Group or you are stirring up trouble and causing some of this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Herbert\u2019s Group has always relied on its own well known established pharmaceuticals, or new drugs that we purchased from somewhere else. Your company has no innovative ability, your market share is shrinking and therefore the capital turnover is having difficulties. This is your company\u2019s internal problem.\u201d Kathy said rather sharply and frankly.<\/p>\n<p>One reason for the Herbert\u2019s Group bankruptcy was because of the Joseph Group; however the main reasons were due to the Herbert Group\u2019s own inner problems.<\/p>\n<p>Even after they were purchased by the Hilton Group, they still cannot change or improve this problem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t speak such nonsense; the Herbert\u2019s Group has always been fine!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Herbert\u2019s Group has always had problems, otherwise before you wouldn\u2019t have needed to rely on the Hilton Group to alleviate the difficulties you were facing. Herbert, this is something that even normal people would understand, so why are you so unable to understand.\u201d Kathy said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, what are you saying? Are you calling me an idiot?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy sneered, she didn\u2019t want to continue speaking with Herbert anymore so she said, \u201cIf there is nothing left then I\u2019m hanging up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy directly hung up the phone.<\/p>\n<p>The time between Friday and now was getting closer, and Kathy\u2019s class amount was very much. Therefore on Thursday when she returned back from the hospital she wrote her report late into the night, until Zofia called her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen are you leaving tomorrow?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe same time as usual?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t be silly, for Joseph\u2019s class you need to get there an hour in advance order to secure a seating place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She looked at the time and saw it was almost two in the morning. If she got to class an hour in advance, then she would need to leave at seven thirty to get to the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that is a little too extreme\u2026\u201d  Kathy tugged at her hair in annoyance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnderstood Professor!\u201d The students all answered together.<\/p>\n<p>Even Kathy couldn\u2019t help but raise her head. Right now Joseph as a professor seemed to have a halo over his head, his gentle and refined manner really was mesmerizing.<\/p>\n<p>In an instant she seemed to be unable to help being distracted.<\/p>\n<p>Only when Joseph called her name did she realize that just now she had been staring at Joseph like a fool\u2026<\/p>\n<p>She was so embarrassed\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, how would you analyze this?\u201d Kathy didn\u2019t know when he started to be standing beside her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stood up a little awkwardly, raised her eyes and met Joseph\u2019s stern gaze.<\/p>\n<p>Being faced with him she was struggling to think of the answer\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Kathy bit her lip for her mind was blank since she hadn\u2019t been listening to what Joseph was saying just now.<\/p>\n<p>Instead she unconsciously picked up her pen and started to write on her notebook.<\/p>\n<p>It then turned out that Joseph\u2019s name was written all over the paper.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph raised his brows as he saw this, and the coldness softened in his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGo and sit at the back, and then after class come with me to the office.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOk.\u201d Kathy said rather obediently.<\/p>\n<p>After she sat down at the back, she took out her notebook and paid close attention to the class. Joseph\u2019s speech was not so fast and as he taught he was extremely patient so that even the hardest points could be easily understood by the students.<\/p>\n<p>The class passed quickly, however many students felt that they still wanted to continue on.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy tidied up her notes since for this whole class she had a lot to learn and write down. If what they were learning wasn\u2019t so logical then it would have been very difficult to absorb all this information.<\/p>\n<p>However she still had some things that she wasn\u2019t clear on yet.<\/p>\n<p>But, she didn\u2019t really want to have to ask Joseph.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1007","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
