She didn\u2019t want to agree.<\/p>\n<p>But Reece&#8217;s case will come to trial, and she was going to appear in court as a witness.<\/p>\n<p>So three days later, even if Kathy was unwilling to leave, she only followed Joseph back to City N.<\/p>\n<p>Before leaving, Jennifer came to see her off.<\/p>\n<p>When she saw Joseph, her face was not good, but Joseph greeted her politely.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mom, I will keep investigating Marlon&#8217;s whereabouts, don&#8217;t worry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer sighed and kept holding her daughter&#8217;s hand.<\/p>\n<p>It was time to board the plane. Joseph walked over and hugged Kathy, &#8220;Mrs Booth, I will take care of Kathy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, if you dare to hurt Kathy again, I won&#8217;t let you go!&#8221; Jennifer&#8217;s tone was cold.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph&#8217;s face was still gentle, and he smiled faintly, &#8220;I will only spoil her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hearing that, Kathy frowned, and for a while, she gave a mocking smile.<\/p>\n<p>In the evening, they just returned to the old house of Joseph&#8217;s family, and the servant had already prepared dinner.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy kept her head down during the meal, even though the dishes on this table were delicious and all she loved.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph sat beside her with one arm around her thin waist. Seeing that she had no appetite, he put down his chopsticks and served her with a bowl of soup.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t you like it?&#8221; He frowned and asked in a low voice.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy paused while holding the chopsticks, and looked up at this handsome face in front of her, &#8220;It&#8217;s okay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, you don&#8217;t need to be so good to me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They can\u2019t go back to the past anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Didn&#8217;t he always think that Veronica died because of her?<\/p>\n<p>Didn\u2019t he take revenge on her?<\/p>\n<p>Of course, she didn&#8217;t ask him. She was not silly to remind him to toss herself.<\/p>\n<p>He asked her hoarsely, &#8220;Don&#8217;t you like me being so good to you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy seemed to stop breathing for a moment, and she pressed her lips without answering.<\/p>\n<p>Now, she didn\u2019t like it.<\/p>\n<p>She would rather Joseph be indifferent to her as before. At least it will keep her awake and stop indulging in the gentleness of this man.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph looked at her face. She still had the same pure features, but the eyes she looked at him were no longer tender and meek.<\/p>\n<p>His heart flustered and became more gloomy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, I&#8217;m sorry.&#8221; His fingers gently pinched her chin, his gaze was do sharp as if to look into her soul, &#8220;Can you forgive me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He knew it was hard to make up for the harm he caused to her.<\/p>\n<p>But once, he really couldn&#8217;t let go of those things.<\/p>\n<p>Mathew was already quite old, with gray hair and not particularly good spirits, but his face was very majestic.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was stunned, and soon said politely, &#8220;Master Mathew.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She knew that Mathew didn&#8217;t want to see her. It seemed that Joseph had never let her see Mathew, but if Mathew comes back City N, and she is by Joseph&#8217;s side again, they will inevitably meet.<\/p>\n<p>Mathew just stared at her face for a long time. He knew the things about her and Joseph recently, so he was even more angry.<\/p>\n<p>He grimned coldly, &#8220;Your ability is much greater than I thought.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He thought that Veronica&#8217;s death would make Joseph completely give up this woman, but he didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You have made me lose a granddaughter, and now you have made me lose a grandson!&#8221; Mathew&#8217;s hand slowly rubbed the armrest of the wheelchair, &#8220;Should I compromise?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked down. &#8220;Joseph promised to help me find my brother&#8217;s whereabouts, so I stayed. Don&#8217;t worry. I will leave the day, and you will not see me forever. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mathew still smiled coldly, &#8220;Oh? So you are with my grandson now, not because you love him, but you just want to use him. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just want to tell you that you will not lose your grandson.&#8221; Kathy&#8217;s face was calm. The servant went out to buy groceries.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Joseph&#8217;s bodyguards were all guarding outside, but they dare not stop Mathew.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Or, do you still want me to leave? The premise is that as long as you help me.&#8221; Kathy said faintly.<\/p>\n<p>Mathew&#8217;s eyebrows twitched slightly, and then he said, &#8220;I remember you just said that Joseph promised to help you find your brother. Are you willing to leave?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy\u2019s pink lips curled up. \u201cHe always thought his sister die because of me. So in order to pay compensation to you, I can leave, and I will find my brother myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Half an hour later, Joseph received a call from the butler.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Master&#8230; You said that Ms Kathy cannot go out during this time, but I just came back and found that Ms Kathy was not there. Is she with you&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1343","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1343","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=1343"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
