She thought she could act as if nothing had happened, but it seemed that her good humor was ruined.<\/p>\n<p>Just out of the box, Peter chased out and stood in front of Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked at him warily.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to talk to you alone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the corridor, there were only Peter and Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>He took out a small box. At seeing this, Kathy stepped back subconsciously.<\/p>\n<p>She knew clearly what was inside. After breaking up with Peter, she returned the ring to him, who had settled in California.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I never thought of getting it back since I gave it to you.&#8221; Peter said.<\/p>\n<p>He handed it over, but Kathy didn&#8217;t take it.<\/p>\n<p>Coldness grew in her eyes, and at last she turned away determinedly, but her eyes turned red unhelpfully.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then throw it away.&#8221; she said without emotion.<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, Peter&#8217;s felt hurt of his heart.<\/p>\n<p>He looked down, grabbed Kathy&#8217;s hand, and stuffed the ring into her hand.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy didn&#8217;t catch, and the ring fell to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mrs. Joseph.&#8221; Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice behind her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stood stiffly and she fought back her tears.<\/p>\n<p>She must not let Joseph see her tears.<\/p>\n<p>But he had come over and held her affectionately. Then his eyes fell on the ring on the floor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are?&#8221; Joseph squinted at Peter.<\/p>\n<p>Peter was puzzled at what the man called her. Mrs. Joseph?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She&#8217;s married?&#8221; Peter wondered.<\/p>\n<p>The man in front of Peter looked like a member of the upper class, either a well-to-do or a well-connected one. He thought Kathy had been waiting for him all these years. But she wasn&#8217;t!<\/p>\n<p>At the thought of this, Peter turned out to be very angry.<\/p>\n<p>As for the ring, she had already returned it to Peter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;None of your business. It&#8217;s my private business.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Just then, Joseph&#8217;s handsome face came up to her with a strong attitude.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was in a bad mood, which gave her courage to look into his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, say it again!&#8221; Joseph turned on a grim-face.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy balled up her fists and growled, &#8220;This is my own&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before she had finished her words, Joseph pressed a kiss on her lips, and all her words were swallowed up.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy frowned.
