You can&#8217;t drink now!&#8221; Kathy pushed all the wine away.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia, however, insisted on going against Kathy. She rushed over to push Kathy away.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Joseph supported Kathy from behind. His face sank as he instructed John. &#8220;Take Miss Marshall away.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, I&#8217;m not leaving &#8230; I want to drink. I broke up with Sonny! Kathy, drink with me!&#8221; Zofia looked at Kathy pitifully.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy&#8217;s heart ached even more.<\/p>\n<p>She wanted to walk over, but Joseph grabbed her waist tightly. She turned to look at Joseph and found that he had got angry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s go home.&#8221; Joseph wanted to take Kathy away from here.<\/p>\n<p>But she did not move. &#8220;I can&#8217;t leave Zofia here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Zofia was slumping over the counter. She felt so sad and upset that her eyes went red.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph pursed his lips and looked at Kathy. He just couldn&#8217;t resist her puppy dog eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What do you want to do?&#8221; Joseph tried to subdue his anger.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy said nervously, &#8220;I want to bring her back to the Joseph Bay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Zofia couldn&#8217;t stay at school now.<\/p>\n<p>But Joseph called Bertie immediately.<\/p>\n<p>However, Bertie had returned to Country C this afternoon because of his work.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, Zofia is my friend. I can&#8217;t leave her alone.&#8221; Kathy broke away from Joseph&#8217;s arms.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia leaned against Kathy&#8217;s embrace, all wrecked. She was looking at somewhere blankly, and tears ran down her cheeks.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy hugged her and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her. &#8220;Zofia, I&#8217;ll take you home. Don&#8217;t cry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In the car, Joseph sat in the passenger seat, while Kathy and Zofia sat in the back.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph remained silent on the way back to Joseph Bay.<\/p>\n<p>The bodyguard and Kathy helped Zofia get into the room. Joseph went to work in the study.<\/p>\n<p>After feeding some tea to Zofia, Kathy made her change into comfortable pajamas and left the room.<\/p>\n<p>The light in the study room was still on. Kathy knocked on the door and walked in.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph sat behind the desk and looked cold.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Zofia will stay with us for a while. Is that okay for you?&#8221; Kathy looked at Joseph. She knew that he was angry.<\/p>\n<p>However, Zofia just had an abortion. Kathy was really worried about her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are the mistress of this house. It&#8217;s up to you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not,&#8221; Kathy whispered.<\/p>\n<p>She had divorced Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>And this was Joseph&#8217;s house.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph Bay is your property,&#8221; Joseph suddenly said.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was surprised. It took a while for her to understand his words.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joseph took out the deed from the drawer and handed it to Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>When did she become the owner of the house?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, this is your house,&#8221; Kathy said in a trembling voice.<\/p>\n<p>Although Joseph said that he prepared it as their house after getting married, she always thought that Joseph was the owner because she didn&#8217;t pay a penny for it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, this is your house. If you could marry me, it will be our home.&#8221; Joseph walked over and hugged her tightly.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy&#8217;s eyes were filled with tears, and she choked up a little.<\/p>\n<p>She looked at her name on the deed. This house was at the best location in downtown. It was on the upper floors and enjoyed a good view. Although the decoration was simple, it was designed by a famous designer. And he used the best materials.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy checked the price and found that she probably couldn&#8217;t pay Joseph back.<\/p>\n<p>But now she became a Booth and held the shares left by her grandfather. If she sold some, she might be able to pay Joseph back.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, you don&#8217;t owe me anything. We will get married. We are partners.&#8221; Joseph knew well about Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright, I&#8217;ll take care of you this week. You just had an abortion and you&#8217;re still fragile. You must never drink again.&#8221; Kathy tried to remind Zofia again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know. I&#8217;m a doctor too.&#8221; Zofia smiled.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph happened to come out of the room. He remained that indifferent look when he saw Zofia.<\/p>\n<p>But he became much gentler as he looked at Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>He walked over and hugged Kathy, as if he didn&#8217;t care that there was someone else at home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Zofia will stay with us for a week. I want the servants to come over every day.&#8221; Kathy looked at him.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy wouldn&#8217;t live on campus this week, either. She would return to the dormitory after Zofia got better and moved out.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph frowned and glanced at Zofia. Then his face darkened slightly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s up to you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, Kathy, I&#8217;m sorry to disturb you.&#8221; Zofia looked very guilty.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Come on. We are friends.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After breakfast, Joseph went to the Joseph Group and Kathy was about to go to school.<\/p>\n<p>And Kathy only went out after telling Zofia not to run around and rest well.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph did not say anything in the car, and the atmosphere was somewhat frosty.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy thought about Zofia and felt a little depressed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When will Zofia leave?&#8221; Joseph suddenly asked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will get an apartment for her,&#8221; Joseph said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But she needs someone to take care of her. I&#8217;m worried about her living alone. You see, something bad almost happened to her last night&#8230;.&#8221; Kathy said nervously.<\/p>\n<p>Her voice had sunk even lower as Joseph gave her a cold gaze.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was really angry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1191","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1191","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=1191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
