It felt so out of place yet she was looking forward to it.<\/p>\n<p>The view from the restaurant was terrific, the French windows made it possible to see the river that was flowing through City N, the scenery was stunning.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy felt a bit unnatural. There was candlelight on the dining table and it made it feel even more like a date because of the candlelight dinner.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, Joseph was calm and quiet, he ordered some dishes and proceeded to pour Kathy some wine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thank you,&#8221; she pursed her lips. In the flicker of the candlelight, the man looked handsome and mysterious.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you like it here?&#8221; asked the man.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy nodded, her eyes filled with joy, &#8220;Of course I do, it feels so romantic here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When the steak was served, Joseph cut them into smaller pieces for Kathy. She was really enjoying herself and felt very pampered.<\/p>\n<p>She stared at Joseph, he appeared elegant and refined as he dined, it was clear that he had a good upbringing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dr. Joseph, did you grow up overseas?&#8221; Kathy couldn&#8217;t help but ask.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was keen on English cuisine, the food he ordered just now was mainly British flavoured as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, I was 7 to 8 years old when I first moved to Country C. I just returned to City N last year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Was it to become a doctor?&#8221; Kathy said abruptly.<\/p>\n<p>She knew that Joseph&#8217;s family was pretty influential, though after Joseph became a doctor, it seemed like he cut ties with his family and had nothing to do with the family business anymore.<\/p>\n<p>But she wasn&#8217;t completely sure about it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was studying medicine in Country C. My ambition had never changed ever since I was a kid.&#8221; Joseph grimaced.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy bit her lips, she suddenly pulled her hand back.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And your parents?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They have their own business in Country C, I haven&#8217;t seen them in years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But they are your parents. Why would you not meet them?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She quickly realized that Joseph&#8217;s facial expression turned solemn, it even felt like there was a hint of hatred.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy&#8217;s heart hurt, she stopped asking about it.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe, this was Joseph&#8217;s scar.<\/p>\n<p>Though, he answered her question, &#8220;I&#8217;m not important to them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They left the restaurant after finishing their meals, Joseph walked in front. Kathy pondered for a brief moment and walked up to hold his arm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you want to go shopping? You are too nice, I wish you would indulge yourself and let me spoil you a bit more.&#8221; Joseph stared at Kathy affectionately.<\/p>\n<p>He gave Kathy a black card, but she only used it once and she bought him clothes instead of buying herself something.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-777","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/777","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=777"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
