She kept thinking of the scene of Zofia lying on the road in blood.<\/p>\n<p>She closed her eyes and shook her head.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Zofia, be reasonable. I&#8217;m sorry that something like this has happened, but it you who came between us knowing exactly that we had been together.&#8221; Kathy calmed down and said word by word.<\/p>\n<p>She admitted that she might have upset Zofia that night.<\/p>\n<p>However, the prerequisite for this was that Zofia deliberately created a scene to mislead her.<\/p>\n<p>She came out of Joseph&#8217;s room with hickeys, but &#8230; Joseph was her boyfriend!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So what? I am like this now. Joseph won&#8217;t ignore me, or he will be a beast!&#8221; Zofia&#8217;s tone was gloomy.<\/p>\n<p>She was betting that Joseph would compromise.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then let&#8217;s see what he will do!&#8221; Kathy took a deep breath and turned around to leave.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, Joseph and I have already done it all. Are you really okay with it? Do you believe in Joseph that much?&#8221; Zofia&#8217;s cold voice sounded behind her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy did not stop. She &#8230; believed in Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, she knew clearly who Zofia was and wouldn&#8217;t believe her anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Walking out of the ward, Bertie extinguished the cigarette and looked at her with a heavy expression.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re going back to City N?&#8221; He asked.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy nodded.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know how Zofia is doing. She is my sister and I will pursue this matter.&#8221; Bertie&#8217;s eyes were filled with ruthlessness.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy&#8217;s expression remained indifferent as usual as she twitched her lip corners, &#8220;How?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph failed Zofia. I won&#8217;t let him live in peace.&#8221; Bertie always paid attention to Kathy&#8217;s emotions.<\/p>\n<p>But now, her emotions were well hidden.<\/p>\n<p>He couldn&#8217;t read her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bertie, Zofia caused this. Do you think what she did is right?&#8221; Kathy said and left without stopping.<\/p>\n<p>She was irritated. She turned on her phone and booked another flight ticket.<\/p>\n<p>However, she did not see any missed calls from Joseph. She was disappointed.<\/p>\n<p>Exactly what made him so anxious to return even without her&#8230;?<\/p>\n<p>At hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Bertie walked into the ward.<\/p>\n<p>Zofia looked at her legs in a daze, and tears gradually welled in her eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Zofia.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bertie, was I wrong?&#8221; Zofia muttered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No.&#8221; Bertie said resolutely.<\/p>\n<p>He always protected her. His sister was his most beloved person since childhood. He would never let her suffer any grievances, not even the slightest bit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just want Joseph to be with me, I just want that&#8230;&#8221; Zofia looked at her brother expectantly while holding his arm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know. Zofia, I will help you.&#8221; Bertie said in a low voice.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Really? Didn&#8217;t you like Kathy? Will you have the heart to hurt her?&#8221; Zofia whispered.<\/p>\n<p>Bertie pursed his lips and fell silent for a while.<\/p>\n<p>He really, really liked her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In my heart, you are the most important one.&#8221; Bertie held his sister&#8217;s hand.<\/p>\n<p>His mother was gone, and Zofia was his only relative.<\/p>\n<p>He would get her whatever she wanted no matter what.<\/p>\n<p>Early in the morning, Kathy returned to City N.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph Bay was quiet. Apparently, Joseph did not come back. She lay quietly on the cold bed. She fell asleep very soon because of exhaustion.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, at the Joseph Group.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph just finished a meeting and John was waiting outside.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr Joseph, Ms Kathy has returned to the Joseph Bay.&#8221; John reported.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph nodded. Then, Quinn came out and said, &#8220;I told you two to come back as soon as possible. Kathy is still in City D?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, she just returned.&#8221; Joseph said indifferently.<\/p>\n<p>She immediately dialed Joseph&#8217;s number. This time, it was finally connected.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, where are you?&#8221; Kathy asked anxiously.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Joseph Group.&#8221; Joseph&#8217;s tone was cold.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Are you busy?&#8221; Her tone carried a hint of caution.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kind of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m back at campus. Can we meet tonight?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have to be at the Joseph Group tonight. Stay there. I&#8217;ll meet you later.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright.&#8221; Kathy replied.<\/p>\n<p>The call was quickly hung up, and Kathy frowned. She could clearly feel that Joseph&#8217;s attitude was different.<\/p>\n<p>Did she say anything that upset him?<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t think so&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>He was the one who left her in City D.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking of this, Kathy angrily threw away her phone and felt puzzled.<\/p>\n<p>She arrived at Dona&#8217;s office. Because Joseph was suspended, her internship was taken over by Professor Zane.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Professor, do you know why Joseph was suspended?&#8221; Kathy couldn&#8217;t help but ask.<\/p>\n<p>Dona frowned and looked at Kathy with a complicated expression. &#8220;I&#8217;m not sure about the higher-ups&#8217; decisions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But recently, the shareholders of the hospital have undergone a major change. I think it should be the answer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shareholders?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Didn&#8217;t you have a good relationship with Reece? Ask him about it and he might know. Oh, my poor memory, why don&#8217;t you just ask Joseph? You two haven&#8217;t broken up, have you?&#8221; Dona suddenly understood.<\/p>\n<p>She always forgot that Kathy and Joseph were a couple.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was astounded. Recalling Joseph&#8217;s cold attitude towards her just now, she felt even more depressed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No.&#8221; She whispered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1227","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1227","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=1227"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
