When is the engagement?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe make it next week tentatively,\u201d Kathy smiled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy don\u2019t you remarry?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stunned for a while, \u201cHmmm, I told Joseph that I want to prepare for marriage only after I graduate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, she wanted to focus on her study.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is two years from now, can Joseph wait for you? There are a lot of women coveting him, queuing from the north to the south of the city.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI trust him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright, I believe that both of you love each other very much, I will look forward to your engagement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Two days later, Joseph sent the proposal of their engagement to Kathy. It came from the creative idea of the PR department of the company.<\/p>\n<p>The engagement location was located at the coastal city near City N. They would hold their engagement on the beach.<\/p>\n<p>But Kathy thought that it was\u2026too extravagant.<\/p>\n<p>She just wanted the engagement to be simple.<\/p>\n<p>She told Joseph her idea, \u201cI think it is better if we just have a meal with our friends and announce our engagement. No need to make it so grand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After hearing that, Joseph frowned, they skipped this step before. So, he wanted to hold a grand engagement for her to fulfil the missed step.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn my opinion, this engagement is similar to the formal wedding,\u201d Joseph looked at her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stunned, if it was a wedding, she also wanted it to be\u2026simple.<\/p>\n<p>Her grandfather was alive on her first wedding, they had to hold a grand wedding to serve the guests in order to maintain the two families\u2019 reputation. In fact, she would like to have her wedding to be attended by her best friends and family members only. Then, she wanted to make a promise with Joseph under their witness.<\/p>\n<p>That was enough.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, do you know?\u201d Kathy looked at him expectantly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, if you don\u2019t want it to be so troublesome, we make it simple. After the engagement, we go for a holiday?\u201d Joseph understood her thought.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright, exactly after next week is the National Day holiday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph asked the employees in the PR Department to come in and canceled all the plans of the engagement. They only arranged for dinner to serve their friends. For the guest list, Joseph let Kathy decide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t have many friends, just the few that you know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOk, it\u2019s settled then.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There were five days left to reach their engagement, the venue did not need much decoration. As for Kathy, she only needed to pick a suit of dress.<\/p>\n<p>Although it was an engagement, Kathy was looking forward to it.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy informed Jennifer about the engagement when she went back home on weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am not around next week, maybe I have to miss your engagement,\u201d Jennifer said disappointedly.<\/p>\n<p>Next week was the Booth Group\u2019s annual general meeting, she had to go to Country C.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom, I will broadcast live for you,\u201d Kathy smiled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish you all can enjoy your day, I don\u2019t want to disturb,\u201d after that, Jennifer took out a necklace with emerald.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis necklace is given by your grandmother to me when I engage with your father, now, I pass it to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked at the emerald, the colour was clear and attractive, it must be expensive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you, mom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will give you more gifts when you reach your formal wedding. It is good that you engage first and get married after you graduate. Joseph is a good man,\u201d Jennifer had a good impression on Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy paled, why Julian was here?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJulian, stop!\u201d Kathy shouted angrily.<\/p>\n<p>He accelerated suddenly and drove the car towards a remote area.<\/p>\n<p>She held her handphone and intended to send message to Joseph. But Julian braked instantly, Kathy\u2019s hand shook and the phone fell onto the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Julian got down from the car and opened the door, he picked up Kathy\u2019s phone and threw it into the rubbish bin outside coolly.<\/p>\n<p>Just then, another driver sat on the driver seat while Julian sat beside Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you surprised to see me?\u201d Julian sneered, \u201cI am bailed temporarily.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat do you want to do?\u201d Kathy was afraid and kept moving backwards.<\/p>\n<p>But the taxi was so narrow, she could not move anywhere else.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat do I want to do? Of course kidnap you and threaten Joseph, or else I have to be put in jail,\u201d Julian held her neck tight, his strength was big, Kathy gasped and her face paled\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJulian, Joseph will not forgive you if you do anything on me,\u201d Kathy muttered.<\/p>\n<p>Julian let go his hand when he saw Kathy was nearly breathless.<\/p>\n<p>Just then, at the Joseph\u2019s Group.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph went to the office, his phone showed a few miss calls from Kathy. He called back but no one picked up his call.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy had left the hospital at this time.<\/p>\n<p>Just then, John informed him, \u201cMr Joseph, Julian is bailed temporarily this afternoon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After that, Joseph darkened his face.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCheck Kathy\u2019s phone location now!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>John nodded, he was shocked by the boss\u2019s sudden changed expression.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1151","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1151","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=1151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
