Chapter 422
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 422<\/p>\n
Kathy eventually agreed to undergo the surgery.<\/p>\n
For Joseph, she had always believed in him from the bottom of her heart.<\/p>\n
Jennifer soon found out about it, but Joseph didn’t block her out of the hospital this time.<\/p>\n
However, the hospital was still heavily guarded.<\/p>\n
Plus, with the recent incident at the Hilton Group, he had to watch out for Billy.<\/p>\n
“Kathy, how come I’m the only one who’s kept in the dark about such a big deal!” Jennifer was in a fit of anger.<\/p>\n
Kathy forced a smile on her pale face, “Mom, I\u2026 I just don’t want to worry you.”<\/p>\n
After all, it was something that even she couldn’t accept.<\/p>\n
She was only twenty-six years old, but her days were numbered…<\/p>\n
“How can I not worry about you?! Even if I would be worried, I’ve the right to know! You’re my daughter!” Jennifer said helplessly.<\/p>\n
By now, she had no intention of blaming Kathy.<\/p>\n
It was just that her heart went out to her daughter.<\/p>\n
Jennifer and Kathy embraced each other, and Kathy could clearly feel Jennifer’s worry and fear.<\/p>\n
She appeased Jennifer, although she didn’t accept this matter either.<\/p>\n
“Mrs. Booth, this is all my fault. I was the one who hid it from Kathy first.” Bertie took the initiative to admit his mistake.<\/p>\n
Jennifer looked at the two of them, and although she was very angry a moment ago, her anger had now subsided.<\/p>\n
“Where’s the doctor? I have to go to him to make sure about the surgery.”<\/p>\n
“Mrs. Booth, the surgeon is Joseph,” Bertie answered.<\/p>\n
As soon as this name came to her ears, Jennifer froze.<\/p>\n
A hint of displeasure flashed across her eyes.<\/p>\n
However, she knew that Joseph was a much honored statesman in the medical profession and no one dared to question the surgery he performed.<\/p>\n
It was just that\u2026<\/p>\n
“Joseph\u2026”<\/p>\n
“Bertie, please take mom back, it’s late,” Kathy said as she checked the time.<\/p>\n
She was also tired as she had been doing medical tests and injections since she woke up, she was very sleepy now.<\/p>\n
Jennifer saw Kathy’s tired look, and she didn’t bother her anymore.<\/p>\n
Leaving the ward, she instructed Bertie to stay here and keep an eye on Kathy.<\/p>\n
“I’m really worried about her,” Jennifer said worriedly.<\/p>\n
“Right now, we’ve no other choice as Joseph is undoubtedly the best doctor for Kathy.” Bertie was also very worried.<\/p>\n
“I’m afraid they will really remarry in the future.”<\/p>\n
“Mrs. Booth, if that’s Kathy’s choice, let’s try to accept it.” Bertie had compromised.<\/p>\n
Jennifer nodded, her eyes gradually turning red with tears.<\/p>\n
Since something like this happened to Kathy, she only hoped that Kathy could get through this and get on with her life.<\/p>\n
The ward had returned to be quiet, but Kathy couldn’t fall asleep anyway.<\/p>\n
She picked up her phone and replied to the message, telling a few good friends about her current situation. After that, she tried to watch some study videos, but couldn’t concentrate anyway.<\/p>\n
Joseph’s appearance gradually came to her mind, and subsequently it completely took over her mind as if by magic.<\/p>\n
Kathy had mixed feelings thinking about the fact that he was now her attending physician.<\/p>\n
Time and again, she tried to disassociate herself from him, but fate had tied him and her together like a rope.<\/p>\n
She couldn’t break free.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps at the door. Looking up, the comer was none other than the man she had been missing.<\/p>\n
At this moment, she didn’t want to hide anything and simply reveal all her emotions.<\/p>\n
“Feeling better?” Joseph approached her and asked in a deep, husky voice.<\/p>\n
“Yes, I’m not uncomfortable for now.”<\/p>\n
“We’ll have the surgery next Monday. You stay here in the meantime, and I’ll be available whenever you need me.”<\/p>\n
“Okay,” Kathy replied softly.<\/p>\n
It was only when she thought about her job that she slowly raised her head. “For the LD project\u2026I’ve to wait until I’m discharged from the hospital before I can continue to participate.”<\/p>\n
“It’s okay. There’s no rush,” Joseph frowned.<\/p>\n
“I’m sorry that I may have slowed down the progress,” Kathy felt guilty.<\/p>\n
Joseph had just asked the development team to speed up the progress during the meeting, and also gave her an order.<\/p>\n
But now she was admitted to the hospital.<\/p>\n
Joseph leaned closer to her, his dark eyes locked on her. “Your health is the most important thing, and I don’t necessarily want you to continue working on the development project immediately after you’re discharged from the hospital.”<\/p>\n
Joseph’s actual feelings for her remained elusive to her.<\/p>\n
“Kathy, I’ll always stay with you and I won’t let anything happen to you,” he said in a deep voice, word by word.<\/p>\n
He made her a promise.<\/p>\n
Kathy looked down. “Is that so? Even if you don’t love me, do you still want to marry me?”<\/p>\n
“I’ve fallen in love with you.” Joseph said slowly, while his eyes became scorching.<\/p>\n
His voice was mellifluous and intoxicating like a brewed wine.<\/p>\n
Kathy was flabbergasted, was Joseph\u2026telling the truth?<\/p>\n
Her eyes sparkled and eventually shone like fireworks, lighting up Joseph’s handsome face and dazzling him.<\/p>\n
Her eyes reflected his handsome face, and a smile gradually blossomed on her face.<\/p>\n
“Joseph, you didn’t lie to me, did you? You said\u2026”<\/p>\n
The next words were once again blocked on the tip of her tongue by him. His kisses fell on her like a storm, leaving her drowning in them, unable to extricate herself.<\/p>\n
The hospital bed was spacious, Joseph held Kathy in his embrace while she stayed quietly in his embrace.<\/p>\n
Joseph’s words that had shocked her still lingered in her mind.<\/p>\n
Fall in love with you.<\/p>\n
“When did this happen?” She asked, stroking his chin with her fingertips.<\/p>\n
“Pardon?” Joseph furrowed his eyebrows.<\/p>\n
“When did you fall in love with me?” Kathy looked at him with a starry gleam in her eyes.<\/p>\n
Joseph’s eyes were full of affection for Kathy as he rubbed her long hair that had reached her back and said in his usual husky voice, “I forgot.”<\/p>\n
“You’re lying!” Kathy was displeased.<\/p>\n
After a moment, Kathy saw that Joseph still hadn’t given her an answer and asked again, “You didn’t just fall in love with me, did you?”<\/p>\n
Joseph pursed his lips, but his eyes were flooded with intense love.<\/p>\n
Holding the back of her head, he dipped a light kiss on her again.<\/p>\n
“It’s a secret.”<\/p>\n
Kathy was rendered speechless.<\/p>\n
Then she couldn’t help slamming her fist lightly on Joseph’s chest, “How can you be like that?”\u3000<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1088","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1088","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=1088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
