I will give you the answer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Kathy said, \u201c\u2026 I have something to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSee you.\u201d Joseph hung off the call soon.<\/p>\n<p>Just the moment, Kathy realized Joseph always waited for her to hang off first when they had a call before.<\/p>\n<p>She started to be disappointed with him.<\/p>\n<p>But Kathy got to think about Joseph\u2019s saying on the phone. To change the team?<\/p>\n<p>It was like that there would be all new colleagues here when she came here next week.<\/p>\n<p>Although it was the first stage of the research, the whole process would be postponed by his decision.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy left the lab with worry and told it to Zofia.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you in your lab? I think Joseph did it with purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy answered, \u201cThe colleagues there don\u2019t like me.\u201d In fact, she did not care about their attitude.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia said, \u201cThat\u2019s why he would like to do. Joseph loves you too much to see you unhappy there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy frowned, \u201cHe does not\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, he doesn\u2019t do it for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy kept silent; actually, she was eager to know why he made the decision.<\/p>\n<p>She hated to make the process slow for her personal problem.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy started to say, \u201cI am going to the hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHey, will you come back later? Anyway, I will lock our room door.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, I will go back soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t fool me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t lock the door.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Half an hour later, Kathy got to the hospital and walked directly to Joseph\u2019s premier room.<\/p>\n<p>It was almost mid-night when nobody was on the corridor. There was so quiet that she even could hear the noise of her own steps.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stopped at the door outside his room.<\/p>\n<p>After a while, Joseph said, \u201cCome in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy bit her lips and opened the door.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was sitting on the sofa instead of lying on bed; he watched his laptop to work at the time.<\/p>\n<p>He did not shift his eyes from the laptop, only saying, \u201cYou told me you have something to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy asked, \u201cWhy would you like to change the team?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph got customed to using a couple of words to explain, \u201cThey are incapable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you sure?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are not sure about my decision?\u201d Joseph looked at Kathy with his sharp eyes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes. I am afraid the costs of our first-stage research will be increased.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Joseph\u2019s Group is able to take it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the way to the hospital, Kathy had prepared a lot of questions to ask Joseph; finally, she did not ask even one of them.<\/p>\n<p>When Kathy turned around to leave, Joseph said, \u201cSo, you come here only for the question?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are not happy with my decision?\u201d Joseph narrowed his eyes to ask.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy always failed to hide her emotion before him. Joseph could see through her easily.<\/p>\n<p>She just answered, \u201cDon\u2019t talk this.\u201d and was leaving now.<\/p>\n<p>Just the moment, she heard some noise in her back and turned back to see what happened.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph tried to stand up but fell down.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing it, Kathy was going to hold him. But he turned to carry her well in his arms.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, by force of inertia, Joseph was falling down on his back on the sofa, with Kathy in his arms falling down on him.<\/p>\n<p>They were too close with each other.<\/p>\n<p>They had been too familiar with each other. Kathy looked up at Joseph and tried to push him with her fingers.<\/p>\n<p>To her surprise, Joseph held her hands so sooner.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was nervous about seeing Joseph\u2019s good-looking face down to her; he intended to kiss her now.<\/p>\n<p>She did not know what to do and had to keep still.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, someone walked to his room and opened the door.<\/p>\n<p>There was a rumor about Kathy spreading in the group for some time. Some solution had to be made to the gossiping staff.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not the one for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel annoyed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy said, \u201c\u2026I can leave the team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before she said more, Joseph interrupted her to say, \u201cKathy, I don\u2019t allow you to be disturbed by them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>As Joseph requested, John dropped off Kathy to school after mid-night.<\/p>\n<p>Before getting off the car, Kathy had a look at John to ask, \u201cJoseph has asked the old team to do the other researches?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMiss Kathy, all of LD Project\u2019s team members resigned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Resigned\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zofia was having a call when Kathy came back.<\/p>\n<p>She turned on the light with hearing some noise. She watched Kathy to say, \u201cWow, Joseph let you go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m tired.\u201d Kathy would not like to talk more.<\/p>\n<p>She was messy in her mind. She expected herself not to love Joseph anymore.<\/p>\n<p>But It was easier thought than done.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph called the team back for her. How could he do it!<\/p>\n<p>Zofia called, \u201cKathy!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She found Kathy had a lot of doubts in her mind and came to ask, \u201cWhat did he do?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy closed her eyes, \u201cNothing. I\u2019m really tired.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Everything would be over tomorrow. She tried to stop thinking more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell. Good night.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, Kathy usually woke up as weekday. But she had been sleeping until the lunch time today.<\/p>\n<p>When she was awake to get up, Zofia was not in the room.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy felt her mobile phone vibrating and got it to read messages. All of them were repeatedly sent by Joseph, \u201cCome to see me this afternoon.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1020","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1020","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=1020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
