When Kathy returned to the ward, she finally remembered that it was a long while since she had seen Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>She missed him.<\/p>\n<p>But he must have been busy with a lot of work affairs. At this thought, Kathy rested in her ward after she had her dinner.<\/p>\n<p>Time passed in minutes and seconds. The nurse came in for a few times, yet she still did not see Joseph\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n<p>On instinct, she called to the nurse on her way out, \u201cIs Dr Joseph in the hospital?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe is, are you looking for him?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, I\u2019m just asking,\u201d Kathy lowered her head.<\/p>\n<p>The nurse returned to the office. Joseph was handling the Joseph Group\u2019s affairs, but actually he was not really that busy.<\/p>\n<p>After a pause, she spoke, \u201cDr Joseph, Miss Kathy seems to be looking for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hearing this, Joseph lifted his gaze but his expression was still dark.<\/p>\n<p>His mood have not been lifted for the entire afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>John who was by the side saw it clearly.<\/p>\n<p>It must have been because of Kathy again.<\/p>\n<p>Further, his boss had not been in the office these few days and was in Kathy\u2019s ward. Today was indeed strange, as he was actually handling affairs in the office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow\u2019s her condition?\u201d asked Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s fine, everything\u2019s normal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then Joseph continued working.<\/p>\n<p>The nurse and John were surprised\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Until midnight, Kathy had waited for Joseph but he did not come. Perhaps tonight he was not coming over\u2026<\/p>\n<p>At this thought, overwhelming disappointment overtook her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy sat on the bed feeling frustrated. After a while she sat up, took out her phone and called Joseph!<\/p>\n<p>In the silent office, Joseph looked at the vibrating phone and did not take heed of it.<\/p>\n<p>Just that his phone kept ringing, Kathy did not give up at all.<\/p>\n<p>After a while, only that Joseph picked up the phone and stepped out of the office.<\/p>\n<p>When she saw Joseph coming, only that Kathy finally put her phone down.<\/p>\n<p>She was very sure now, that Joseph had missed her call on purpose!<\/p>\n<p>She was a little angry, but when she saw him, her anger subsided a lot immediately.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you very busy?\u201d Kathy looked at him unsurely.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph\u2019s expression was a little dark.<\/p>\n<p>But now it looked a lot softer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, I was busy,\u201d he walked over.<\/p>\n<p>As he saw the dinner beside Kathy was barely eaten, his brows furrowed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo appetite?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy pursed her lips, \u201cIt\u2019s fine, I\u2019m full.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright, then rest early.\u201d As he said so, he tidied up the cutlery for her and wanted to leave.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked at Joseph\u2019s cold silhouette, she pouted but said nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Was he angry?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph,\u201d she was a little annoyed.<\/p>\n<p>What was this!<\/p>\n<p>The man at the door stopped in his steps and took a deep breath. He threw the rubbish and turned back.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy did not expect as she watched Joseph walk towards her, he actually pulled her into his embrace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was jealous,\u201d he said deeply.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was stunned. jealous?<\/p>\n<p>She did not do anything\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNothing,\u201d Joseph did not continue.<\/p>\n<p>But Kathy pulled on his collar, \u201cWho are you jealous of?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph\u2019s handsome face had a rare blush on it.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy found out about it and she could not help but chuckled silently.<\/p>\n<p>She recalled the events today, was it Bertie?<\/p>\n<p>But she and Bertie had only normal contact.<\/p>\n<p>She looked at Joseph in confusion, while he turned his head in awkwardness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not jealous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ve undressed me, what do you say we should do?\u201d Joseph squinted, as if there was a dangerous beast contained in his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stunned, she was too familiar with a Joseph like this.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing his thoughts, she struggled to escape from him immediately.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t mess around\u2026 I\u2019m still a patient!\u201d Kathy glared at him.<\/p>\n<p>But Joseph pulled her into his arms once again, bending down, his lips was on her ear, \u201cAlright, I\u2019ll wait for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was actually a very normal thing to say, but coming out from Joseph\u2019s lips it was tainted with something else.<\/p>\n<p>Umm\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Kathy only felt that her entire body was going soft.<\/p>\n<p>Even her ears were red.<\/p>\n<p>She could only sit up straight holding onto Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStop saying nonsense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph rubbed her head affectionately, he had stopped teasing her. He ordered John to buy a shirt, and it was sent over in less than half an hour.<\/p>\n<p>He changed into his new shirt in front of Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>Although her back was facing Joseph, she could not help but turn around, and stared at him unblinkingly\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The more she looked, the more she found this man to be too charming.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was her man.<\/p>\n<p>At this thought, Kathy face could not help it but curled into a smile.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the surgery is done, I\u2019ll be yours.\u201d Seeing through Kathy\u2019s thoughts, Joseph came over, lifted her face and landed a deep kiss.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy sunk into his softness.<\/p>\n<p>The day before the surgery, Kathy who had been relaxed all this while began to be nervous finally.<\/p>\n<p>Although Joseph assured that the surgery would succeed, but she knew that the success rate of this surgery was very low.<\/p>\n<p>If anything had happened, she would not even be able to wake up.<\/p>\n<p>She was afraid.<\/p>\n<p>At this thought, Kathy walked to the balcony. The sunlight spilled in, but her vision was all dark.<\/p>\n<p>She wanted to survive, this was the strongest thought at this moment.<\/p>\n<p>She wanted to be with Joseph, she did not want\u2026 to leave him.<\/p>\n<p>She did not want to lose him again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1091","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1091","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=1091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
