Only then did Kathy push Joseph away, her cheeks slightly pink.<\/p>\n<p>Bertie was no longer in the ward.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Did you bring me here?&#8221; Kathy looked at Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah,&#8221; Joseph responded, opening the takeaway box.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy watched his moves, feeling extremely comforting.<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t dare to think about the consequences if Joseph hadn&#8217;t found her&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>But how did he know?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why did you come to the laboratory at that time?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have to come over since there is an accident in the laboratory.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What about the other colleagues?&#8221; Kathy asked with concern.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They are all off work long ago.&#8221; Joseph frowned.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy fell silent. So someone should have kept her in the laboratory on purpose.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Leave it to me. Eat something first.&#8221; Joseph said warmly.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy knitted her brows, gazed at Joseph, and tried to say something.<\/p>\n<p>She thought that she could get rid of him, but there always seemed to be some accidents.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sorry, I caused you trouble,&#8221; Kathy said in a low voice.<\/p>\n<p>If this incident really happened because of her, it would probably cause trouble to the Joseph&#8217;s Group and even Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph frowned and held Kathy&#8217;s face, his face serious, &#8220;I&#8217;d rather you trouble me, but only if you are safe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She clearly saw the concern in Joseph&#8217;s eyes.<\/p>\n<p>She pursed her lips and did not make a sound for a long while.<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t quite understand what he meant.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m all right now,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t bear it if anything should happen to you.&#8221; Joseph let go of her.<\/p>\n<p>He barely revealed his true emotions, except when he couldn&#8217;t stand it anymore.<\/p>\n<p>This time, they had already crossed the line.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was moved and asked in a quiet voice, &#8220;Do you still care about me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joseph didn&#8217;t answer. He just sat beside her, feeding her porridge bit by bit.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy lowered her head and convinced herself that Joseph cared about her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You should go back. I can leave the hospital tomorrow.&#8221; Seeing Joseph had not left after putting away the things, Kathy looked at him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay.&#8221; After he said that, he quickly left the ward.<\/p>\n<p>Only one light was on in the ward, which was a little dark.<\/p>\n<p>It was so quiet around that Kathy even heard her heartbeat clearly.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, she didn&#8217;t want to let him go.<\/p>\n<p>But no one was clearer about their relationship than she was.<\/p>\n<p>Tossing around, Kathy hadn&#8217;t fallen asleep.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph didn&#8217;t leave, standing in the corridor outside.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>As Julian listened to the report from his subordinates, his face became gloomy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Useless!&#8221; He angrily kicked the kneeling man away.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know how Joseph found out&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Julian squinted. &#8220;As expected, he still cares about his ex-wife.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She is in the hospital now. Maybe we can do it in the hospital?&#8221; The subordinate suggested.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, now Joseph must be more vigilant. We will be exposed when we go to the hospital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Emm&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Get out.&#8221; Julian&#8217;s face turned gloomy.<\/p>\n<p>Behind him, Herbert walked to him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now you should believe me, right? Joseph still love Kathy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unexpectedly, my brother is so infatuated with her. It will be easier since I know his weakness,&#8221; Julian sneered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What are you going to do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have bought a lot of odd-lot now, and the stocks in my grandfather&#8217;s hands have been transferred to my younger brother long ago. But the shares in my hand have surpassed Joseph. As long as we stop grandpa, I am sure I can throw him out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This was the breakfast Joseph bought for Kathy after waiting in the queue for half an hour just now&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Go back to the Joseph&#8217;s Group,&#8221; he ordered.<\/p>\n<p>John nodded immediately and started the engine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In the Joseph&#8217;s Group, Amy, the head of the drug development department, came to the president&#8217;s office early. Joseph had thoroughly investigated what happened yesterday. And she would be the first one to blame.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Joseph come into the office, she became even more nervous.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Joseph.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joseph&#8217;s face was always cold. He was sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed, which made people feel intimidated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Explain.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Amy said with a pale face and bit the bullet, &#8220;What happened yesterday was after work. I didn&#8217;t expect that Kathy hadn&#8217;t left yet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Who let her go to Lab 3?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Me&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We needed a reagent at that time. Kathy was helping me, so I let her go there. But I didn&#8217;t expect that she hadn&#8217;t come out after a long time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, you can start the resignation procedures now,&#8221; Joseph said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>Hearing this, Amy&#8217;s eyes suddenly turned red. &#8220;Mr. Joseph, I really didn&#8217;t know about this. The power outage in the laboratory was an accident. No one knew that Kathy was inside&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since you are the person in charge, shouldn&#8217;t you be responsible for the accident in the laboratory?&#8221; Joseph said solemnly.<\/p>\n<p>Amy felt so wronged, but she certainly couldn&#8217;t refute what Joseph said.<\/p>\n<p>As Amy left the president&#8217;s office, Julian was coming out of the elevator and stopped when he saw her looking like she was about to cry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What happened?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Joseph fired me, but I really don&#8217;t know anything about yesterday&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since it was Joseph&#8217;s order, we can only blame it for bad luck. As for what happened yesterday, why do I feel that Kathy did it on purpose?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What? You said it was Kathy&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just made a wild guess.&#8221; Julian curled his lips. &#8220;Don&#8217;t you know that the relationship between Kathy and Joseph is not simple?&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1011","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1011","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=1011"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
