But in an instant, the corners of her mouth gradually curled up.<\/p>\n<p>Getting into his car, he went to the hospital instead of going back to Joseph Bay.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at all of Kathy&#8217;s reports and X-rays, he spent almost every night thinking about surgical options.<\/p>\n<p>But each of these options was highly dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>In the latter part of the night, only nicotine could make him feel less afraid.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The next morning, Kathy was about to go to the Joseph&#8217;s Group when she was informed. As the end of the semester approached, all Ocean University students were suspended from drug development.<\/p>\n<p>The disappointment on Kathy&#8217;s face was obvious.<\/p>\n<p>She wouldn\u2019t see Joseph again.<\/p>\n<p>Tapping on her phone, she saw his message: Remember to eat breakfast.<\/p>\n<p>Five simple words, but it was heartwarming, and a smile spread across her face.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia looked at her in confusion.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, you&#8217;re creeping me out with that smile.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The truth was that she hadn&#8217;t seen Kathy smile in all the time she had known her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, well, I&#8217;m not smiling.&#8221; Kathy grimaced deliberately.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia came over to her bed. Naturally, she saw Kathy&#8217;s phone screen right away.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What man sent this to you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s going on with you two? I remember that last night he gave you a tutorial. Did something happen between you?&#8221; Zofia said deliberately and ambiguously.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was embarrassed. The image of her kissing Joseph involuntarily came to her mind. Her cheeks were getting redder and redder &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How there is any things&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That must something happen!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Are you guys together?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Maybe\u2026&#8221; Kathy frowned.<\/p>\n<p>She couldn&#8217;t really guess at Joseph&#8217;s attitude last night.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What do you mean? Isn&#8217;t that kind of thing clear?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t promise to remarry him. But we held hands last night.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The feeling was unfamiliar, yet it touched her heart.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You guys are so innocent!&#8221; Zofia exclaimed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Or what?&#8221; Kathy asked innocently.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, she liked it better this way, to begin with.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t because of a marriage that they had to get close.<\/p>\n<p>Rather, it was just because she wanted to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, Kathy came to the hospital. Recently, Benedict had been in the hospital, and Kathy was interning with him.<\/p>\n<p>By the time she finished documenting the surgical progress of the patients, it was almost evening.<\/p>\n<p>During this time, Joseph tutored her every day.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy, however, rushed to another hospital first.<\/p>\n<p>She made an appointment with a brain surgeon for a thorough examination before returning to Ocean University Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Not far away, Joseph&#8217;s car was parked outside.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy frowned at the man getting out of the car. How did he get here?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Back to Joseph Bay tonight, huh?&#8221; He took her hand in his and warmed it up.<\/p>\n<p>Before Kathy could regain consciousness, Joseph had already brought her to the car.<\/p>\n<p>It was already winter, and it was cold outside, but the temperature inside the car was just right.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Aren&#8217;t you at school?&#8221; Kathy asked in a daze.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You don&#8217;t have class tomorrow, so you&#8217;ll rest there tonight. I can give you a tutorial tomorrow, too,&#8221; Joseph said softly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whatever you say,&#8221; Kathy smiled.<\/p>\n<p>Her bright smile fell into his eyes. Joseph narrowed his eyes and lifted her chin to kiss her passionately.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy took him in her arms and raised her neck.<\/p>\n<p>Everything about her made him swoon.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph had just driven back to Joseph Bay but received a call from Veronica. Mathew fainted at home.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy watched in confusion as Joseph turned the car around.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s wrong?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grandpa is usually very good to me. I don&#8217;t want anything to happen to him either.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll take him in for a checkup tomorrow. Can you arrange that for me?&#8221; Joseph asked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, I&#8217;ll contact the hospital. I&#8217;ll be going home then.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll drive you back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy didn&#8217;t refuse. After all, even if she had refused, Joseph&#8217;s attitude was just as strong.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the next two days, you may have to suspend your tuition.&#8221; Joseph frowned.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s okay. It&#8217;s still a while before the exams.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, thank you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This was the first time Kathy had heard this from Joseph&#8217;s mouth.<\/p>\n<p>She looked at him unexpectedly, &#8220;You thanked me for what.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For being willing to come back to me.&#8221; Joseph&#8217;s voice was low.<\/p>\n<p>But Kathy heard it.<\/p>\n<p>Her heart shuddered. Right now, she wanted to cry.<\/p>\n<p>She was the one who should thank him for being there for her in her last days.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy held Joseph&#8217;s hand tightly in hers.<\/p>\n<p>The limousine stopped at the bottom of the dormitory building. They were both very sad.<\/p>\n<p>However, the thought of seeing Joseph tomorrow made Kathy feel less lost.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph did not get into the car until Kathy&#8217;s back was out of his sight.<\/p>\n<p>He was still back at the hospital, going over the cases, and thinking about the surgical options.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy came over to the hospital early the next day. Now that she was interning here, it was easy for her to schedule a physical exam for Mathew.<\/p>\n<p>It didn&#8217;t take long for Joseph to bring Mathew over. The two of them waited in the hallway.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why don&#8217;t you take Grandpa to Boston Hospital? It&#8217;s a lot less crowded there,&#8221; Kathy asked him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to see you.&#8221; Joseph looked at her intently.<\/p>\n<p>His words caused Kathy to smile.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We see each other all the time.&#8221; She muttered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not often enough.&#8221; He hugged Kathy&#8217;s tiny waist. Every second of every day, he just wanted to rub her into his body.<\/p>\n<p>She belonged only to him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1055","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1055","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=1055"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
