Although he did not drink too much wine today, there was still a faint smell of wine mixing with his icy breath.<\/p>\n<p>All of a sudden, Kathy felt very much depressed.<\/p>\n<p>If she had to travel overseas to continue her studies, a long-distance relationship with Joseph would be inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy held Joseph\u2019s big palm tightly with her two hands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, what if I said, I wanted to go overseas,\u201d Kathy murmured.<\/p>\n<p>As expected, the aura surrounding Joseph dropped quickly in temperature.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy did not speak anything for a moment.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph frowned and lost in his thought. He then turned to Kathy after a while, hiding the chills in his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>He gently said, \u201cKathy, what if I disagree.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There was a hint of dominance in his tone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI need some time to think,\u201d said Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>For now, nothing was planned.<\/p>\n<p>After arriving at Ocean University, the familiar buildings triggered her sense of nostalgia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou should head back. I will be fine on my own,\u201d Kathy said while releasing her seatbelt.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was staring right into Kathy\u2019s soul, it made her panic.<\/p>\n<p>Within a second, Joseph pulled Kathy\u2019s wrist and she fell into his arms.<\/p>\n<p>She was trapped like prey.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are hiding from me,\u201d Joseph said earnestly.<\/p>\n<p>She was biting her lip with mixed emotions because she had no idea why this was happening.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps it was because of Mathew who interfered with their relationship. She did not want to destroy the relationship between Mathew and Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>All she wanted all along was a stable relationship.<\/p>\n<p>If anything ever tried to stop her, she would get cold feet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, Joseph, you are just overthinking,\u201d Kathy pushed him away.<\/p>\n<p>After Joseph released her hand, she got off the car and fled.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph did not leave. Instead, he waited until the vibration of his phone disrupted the silence.<\/p>\n<p>There was an incoming message from Maria King.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, let us make a deal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The principal\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, you are here.\u201d The principal looked tired.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stood a few feet in front of the principal\u2019s desk. She stared at the principal with an indifferent look.<\/p>\n<p>She had studied in this school for a long time. She knew all along that the principal did not like her that much.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven though I am the principal, there is still a school board that is more superior than me. I can\u2019t decide everything on my own.\u201d said the principal with a meaningful tone.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy understood it crystal clear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrincipal, I did not agree with the transfer at all. But I have already enrolled as a student in other universities. Isn\u2019t this the school\u2019s fault?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe school is only considering the best for you, the reputation of University of Country B is not bad at all. In fact, it allows you to have a test-free admission. Isn\u2019t that great?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From her perception, Kathy\u2019s level and capability were always at the top tier, and she deserved better.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy smiled, then she simply packed her things from her room and farewell Zofia before leaving the school.<\/p>\n<p>It was impossible to pack all of her stuff from her dorm at once. She might still need to come back anytime soon to collect everything.<\/p>\n<p>The moment she stepped out of her dorm, Joseph was already waiting.<\/p>\n<p>He was not surprised to see Kathy with her luggage.<\/p>\n<p>He took the luggage from Kathy and handed it over to his driver. He then held her tiny hands and got into the car.<\/p>\n<p>It was the weekend, there were not many people in the school. But there were still a lot of students who saw that scene.<\/p>\n<p>A tall handsome man with a white shirt and long pants was holding a petite pretty woman. There was obvious love affection in Joseph&#8217;s eyes but Kathy&#8217;s eyes looked lost.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, why don&#8217;t you ask me anything?&#8221; Kathy kept staring at Joseph after entering the car.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have already known all of your thoughts after you told me just now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Although he had just become the CEO of Joseph&#8217;s group, the ability to read other&#8217;s minds is always necessary.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh.&#8221; Kathy humped her cheeks. Well, it was not a surprise that it was impossible to hide any thoughts from Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So you still decided to leave Ocean University, you still do not want my help,&#8221; Joseph said with a deep voice.<\/p>\n<p>She wanted to face everything on her own, that is Kathy&#8217;s personality. Even when the outcome was not the best, she would accept it as well.<\/p>\n<p>But when someone helped her, she would feel that she might owe others something.<\/p>\n<p>Even when the person was her intimate lover.<\/p>\n<p>Developing independence since young and now it was her motto.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I really do not want you to interfere anymore,&#8221; Kathy hugged Joseph and mumbled.<\/p>\n<p>Since she knew Joseph only took over Joseph&#8217;s group because of her, she thought she was imperceptibly affecting Joseph&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph should have his own dream and should not miss any more opportunities because of her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, everything that I have done for you is of my own free will,&#8221; Joseph said with a chilly tone, and he was strong enough to protect her now.<\/p>\n<p>It was always worth it for giving up certain things for her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1168","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1168","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=1168"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
