Chapter 481
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 481<\/p>\n
“Julian is kind of doomed now. Now HY Group is bankrupt and he’s in jail.” Kathy said lightly.<\/p>\n
She knew the resentment between Joseph and Julian. Given Joseph’s tactics, there was a good chance that he would not give Julian a chance to get out of prison either.<\/p>\n
“But with Joseph inheriting the Joseph’s Group, he won’t be able to be a doctor anymore. The Joseph’s Group has so many properties, he can’t keep up with them, I guess.”<\/p>\n
“He still has weekly sessions, but Mathew doesn’t approve of him doing that.” Thinking about what Mathew had told her, Kathy sighed in annoyance.<\/p>\n
And at this moment, Mathew and Veronica came together. They were both from the Joseph family. Many guests came up to talk to them.<\/p>\n
Suddenly Kathy was not in the mood for anything.<\/p>\n
It wasn’t long before a tall man came this way. Seeing Reece, there was a flash of displeasure in Kathy’s eyes.<\/p>\n
“Miss Kathy,” Reece’s low, attractive voice was impressive.<\/p>\n
Of course, Alexia remembered him. She glanced at Kathy and noticed her face was indifferent as hell.<\/p>\n
Kathy nodded faintly in response.<\/p>\n
“You didn’t go in the ballroom. You prefer the quiet, don’t you? It just so happens that I do too.” With that, Reece took a seat in the swivel chair opposite them.<\/p>\n
His every move was elegant and dignified, giving the impression of being a gentleman enough.<\/p>\n
With Reece next to them, both Kathy and Alexia were out of the mood for conversation.<\/p>\n
Alexia put her glass down, glared at Reece, and walked in with Kathy on her arm.<\/p>\n
Reece, who had been left behind, frowned. He tightened his fingertips as he held his glass.<\/p>\n
“Kathy, that Reece makes me feel weird.” Alexia looked at the man’s back. She couldn’t help but feel that he was very cunning.<\/p>\n
“You don’t want to have too much contact with him anyway,” Kathy warned.<\/p>\n
The star of the party was Joseph, but also Mathew.<\/p>\n
He was on crutches and old, but at the moment he was still sort of in good spirits.<\/p>\n
“Grandpa, I told you to stay home and rest. Why did you come over here?” Joseph was a little disgruntled.<\/p>\n
Grandpa had been taken to the hospital today and hadn’t rested long at home before coming over.<\/p>\n
“Today is your big day and I wanted to come over to congratulate you in person.”<\/p>\n
“Yes, brother, Grandpa has been talking about you since he got home. He had to come over.” Veronica also said in a displeased tone.<\/p>\n
She was afraid that something might happen to Grandpa again. Grandpa fainting during the day today had really scared her.<\/p>\n
“Grandpa, I’ll take you back.”<\/p>\n
It was enough for him to show up for this kind of occasion. Joseph had no desire to entertain either.<\/p>\n
“No, I’ll go back after I’ve given you a toast. The Joseph’s Group will be yours from now on.” Joseph and Veronica stopped Mathew as he was about to drink.<\/p>\n
“Grandpa, stop it!” Joseph snatched away the glass of wine.<\/p>\n
“I’ll take you back first.”<\/p>\n
“No, no, have yourself a good time. I’m getting old. I’ll go back on my own.” With that, Mathew waved his hand and left alone on his crutches.<\/p>\n
Joseph pursed his thin lips and his brows furrowed slightly.<\/p>\n
“Brother, Grandpa really worries too much about you.” Veronica shook her head helplessly.<\/p>\n
She didn’t know why Mathew preferred Joseph before, but today, knowing that Mathew was an illegitimate son, Veronica understood.<\/p>\n
In this family, only her brother was the only legitimate heir.<\/p>\n
“Grandfather is for the Joseph’s Group,” Joseph said indifferently.<\/p>\n
At that moment, a tall man approached them. Reece, dressed in a black suit, walked towards them step by step.<\/p>\n
His domineering aura could not help but draw the attention of those present.<\/p>\n
Only in front of Joseph could the two men be equal in their aura.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Joseph, congratulations.” Reece held his glass of wine.<\/p>\n
He had loved Kathy before, and of course, he was upset that Joseph was marrying Ella, and had never got to know the woman. But now, it seemed she was okay.<\/p>\n
“I’m going to take a shower first,” Ella said sweetly.<\/p>\n
Mathew nodded and ordered his bodyguard to go down.<\/p>\n
Joseph and Kathy were already planning to leave when a black-clad bodyguard approached and said in a low voice, “Mr. Joseph, Mr. Mathew is meeting guests in his room on the first floor. He doesn’t seem to be in good health and would like you to go up and have him checked out?”<\/p>\n
“Grandfather hasn’t left yet?” Joseph frowned.<\/p>\n
“He was dragged along by an old friend for another chat, which lasted until now.” The bodyguard said exactly as Mathew had told him to.<\/p>\n
“Go check on Grandpa and drop him off on the way home. I’ll go back to school myself.” Kathy said.<\/p>\n
“I’ll have the driver drop you off.”<\/p>\n
“Well, I’ll have Johnson take Kathy back later. Why don’t you go check on Mathew?” Alexia came over.<\/p>\n
Joseph then turned around and made his way to the first floor. He pushed open the door to his room, but found it empty, with only a little noise coming from the bathroom.<\/p>\n
“Grandpa.”<\/p>\n
The next second, the door behind him closed automatically and was locked.<\/p>\n
Joseph knew almost immediately what was happening. At that moment, the bathroom door was opened and Ella emerged wearing an almost sheer lace nightgown.<\/p>\n
Her hair was damp and still dripping. She looked up and met Joseph’s sulking gaze, but boldly approached him.<\/p>\n
“Joseph,” she called to him.<\/p>\n
Joseph frowned. The temperature of his body was edging up. The sight of Ella made it even more difficult for him to control.<\/p>\n
Narrowing his eyes coldly, he said in a deep voice, “Get out.”<\/p>\n
Ella ignored his words and instead moved closer again and again. Finally, she wrapped her arms around Joseph.<\/p>\n
“You’re so hot. Joseph, let me help you, okay?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1147","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1147","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=1147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
