Chapter 436
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 436<\/p>\n
Julian\u2019s face turned dark. He didn\u2019t think that Kathy would talk back to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cJulian, I\u2019m not here today for you to talk bad about my beloved,\u201d said Joseph cold and sternly.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wouldn\u2019t dare. I\u2019m just joking, don\u2019t take it so seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n
Julian didn\u2019t press the matter since everyone around them knew them rather well.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy company is new, I\u2019ll be in your care in the future,\u201d said Julian as he raised his glass.<\/p>\n
Joseph looked indifferent. He raised his glass as well, he finished his drink alone without clinking glasses with Julian.<\/p>\n
Julian hand was left awkwardly raised in the air.<\/p>\n
He threw the glass on his hand angrily on the ground after Joseph walked away.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Julian, don\u2019t mind him. It\u2019s a prosperous day today.\u201d The other executives standing next to him tried to comfort him.<\/p>\n
The rumour about these siblings was true after all, that they didn\u2019t get along with each other.<\/p>\n
Julian\u2019s face was dark until he saw a figure in black shirt and pants by the entrance. The expression on his face turned brighter as he went up to this person.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr Bridges.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
Kathy didn\u2019t eat much before they came here. She got hungry and Joseph brought her a piece of cake.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like I\u2019m just here to eat,\u201d said Kathy a bit frustratedly.<\/p>\n
She should\u2019ve eaten before they got here. Joseph and Kathy were the only by the food table.<\/p>\n
The other guests were busy fawning and congratulating Julian.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re such a little glutton, let\u2019s go have hot pot later,\u201d said Joseph as he pinched her nose softly.<\/p>\n
Even her eyes were smiling, \u201cCan we really?\u201d<\/p>\n
She kept a bland diet the whole time she was in the hospital, so bland that it ruined her appetite.<\/p>\n
The desserts displayed in front of her right now were basically seducing her taste buds.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, we can,\u201d Joseph nodded.<\/p>\n
Kathy took a bite of the cake and when she looked up, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her.<\/p>\n
Ella?<\/p>\n
The expression on Kathy\u2019s face immediately turned bleak.<\/p>\n
Kathy pushed Joseph\u2019s hand away which was on her waist,<\/p>\n
\u201cJoseph.\u201d Ella was all dressed-up tonight, the makeup on her face was flawless. The light blue dress she had on showed off her figure finely and the strapless tube design flaunted her perfect body even more. Many guests couldn\u2019t help but stare at her.<\/p>\n
But she only had Joseph in her eyes.<\/p>\n
Joseph frowned and hugged Kathy by her waist again. He put more force into it this time and Kathy couldn\u2019t budge him.<\/p>\n
Kathy glared at him angrily.<\/p>\n
Ella saw everything and to her, it looked like they were flirting openly in front of her.<\/p>\n
The smile on her face froze.<\/p>\n
But she still walked over, nevertheless.<\/p>\n
Though Joseph never looked her way even once.<\/p>\n
Kathy said bitterly, \u201cYour fianc\u00e9 is here.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are not engaged anymore,\u201d Joseph looked Kathy in the eyes and said seriously.<\/p>\n
\u201cSure,\u201d answered Kathy unhappily.<\/p>\n
She was in a good mood, but it was now all ruined.<\/p>\n
\u201cJoseph, can I talk to you for a bit?\u201d said Ella in a gentle and soft voice as she stood in front of Joseph.<\/p>\n
He grimaced and said indifferently, \u201cSure, just say it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ella glanced at Kathy after that.<\/p>\n
Kathy immediately understood what Ella meant. Ella wanted to talk to Joseph alone.<\/p>\n
But Kathy didn\u2019t want to give her the chance to do so, she held onto Joseph\u2019s arm and wasn\u2019t going to walk away.<\/p>\n
Ella had a not very nice look on her face. She tried to strike up another conversation with Joseph and said, \u201cJoseph, I\u2019m sorry about the wedding.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss Bridges, there\u2019s nothing between us anymore, hence there\u2019s no need to apologize,\u201d said Joseph with a nonchalant expression.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know that my mother was the one who called off the engagement, but the marriage was still a promise between the two of us, I\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Ella\u2019s eyes were turning red, she was so nervous that she clenched her dress tightly.<\/p>\n
She was here with her brother and her mother didn\u2019t know about this.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry\u2026I\u2026it was an accident.\u201d The woman immediately apologized.<\/p>\n
She quickly sobered up and rubbed her temple. She looked embarrassed.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s okay, I\u2019ll change out of this dress.\u201d Kathy frowned as she looked at her dress, a big part of the dress was stained with red wine.<\/p>\n
Joseph took off his suit and put in on Kathy, but the dress was dripping wet.<\/p>\n
\u201cI brought an extra dress, please change into mine,\u201d said the woman.<\/p>\n
Kathy glanced at Joseph, walking out right now like this\u2026 would be pretty embarrassing.<\/p>\n
\u201cGo ahead, I\u2019ll be waiting here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy followed the woman. They walked along the corridor outside as there weren\u2019t too many guests there.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m Keira Watson, what\u2019s your name?\u201d The woman had a gentle voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m Kathy.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s a familiar name,\u201d said Keira, she sounded surprised.<\/p>\n
Kathy paused briefly, she was sure that she didn\u2019t know the person before her.<\/p>\n
They got to the dressing room and Keira found her bag. She took out a black dress.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt should fit you well. Please change into it, I\u2019ll wait outside.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy quickly changed into the dress, but Keira was nowhere to be found when Kathy walked outside.<\/p>\n
Kathy followed Keira here and she didn\u2019t remember which way to go. There was a three-way fork at the corridor.<\/p>\n
She decided on one of the paths simply.<\/p>\n
She walked to the end of the path and thought that there would be a turn, but she stumbled upon a balcony instead.<\/p>\n
There was a person with a slender figure smoking on the balcony.<\/p>\n
The man was in black shirt and pants, he was emitting a terrifying air. Kathy subconsciously halted herself in her tracks.<\/p>\n
She stopped briefly and decided to go back the way she came from.<\/p>\n
The man turned around and a deep voice could be heard.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you remember me?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy frowned. When she looked up, the man was already standing right in front of her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1102","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1102","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=1102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
