Chapter 219
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 219<\/p>\n
Kathy\u2019s eyes widened. She stepped forward but was stopped by Joseph, unable to move.<\/p>\n
Stimulated by the hormone, Joseph kissed Kathy. She slowly closed her eyes.<\/p>\n
She was pushed against the wall by Joseph. And he started to touch her.<\/p>\n
Kathy immediately stopped him.<\/p>\n
His eyes darkened.<\/p>\n
And he smiled. They were very close to each other. Kathy looked straight into his eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cJoseph \u2026 you\u2019re going to work,\u201d She said.<\/p>\n
\u201cUh huh.\u201d Joseph narrowed his eyes and lowered his head to kiss Kathy again.<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t stop until she was almost out of breath \u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
Kathy also went back to the company to work. It had been a week since Lincoln took office. Although everyone was gossiping about Johnson, no one knew where he had gone.<\/p>\n
He seemed to have disappeared from City N overnight.<\/p>\n
Kathy worked as usual. She and Sue got more acquainted than before. They often had lunch together, so it was normal for her to meet Lincoln.<\/p>\n
In the staff dining room, Kathy and Sue had just sat down when Lincoln came up to them.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy didn\u2019t you invite me to join you?\u201d asked Lincoln directly.<\/p>\n
Sue frowned and said, \u201cWhy are you always haunting me? It\u2019s not working time now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s why I didn\u2019t ask you to work for me.\u201d Lincoln narrowed his eyes.<\/p>\n
Kathy was not surprised at their conversation. That was how they talked to each other. She just lowered her head and quietly looked at the menu.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou shall invite me to lunch,\u201d Lincoln said peremptorily.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have a lot fun together. Don\u2019t disturb us.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDisturb?\u201d Lincoln said sullenly.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes! Mr. Lincoln, you\u2019re the CEO. You should have lunch in the fancy restaurant across the street.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo way!\u201d Lincoln took the menu from Kathy.<\/p>\n
Sue ignored him and continued to talk to Kathy.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, I need to talk to Secretary Sue privately.\u201d Lincoln looked at Kathy and showed her a sign.<\/p>\n
Kathy smiled, \u201cSue promised to have lunch with me first.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right. We are not going to talk about anything.\u201d Sue was very displeased.<\/p>\n
At that time, Lincoln received a call. He had to deal with the business immediately.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll be back soon.\u201d He left.<\/p>\n
Sue still ignored him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou will attend the thesis defense tomorrow. Are you ready?\u201d Sue asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes. I did everything I could do. I hope everything goes smoothly.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSure. After the defense, are you going to resign to prepare for the postgraduate examination?\u201d Sue was somewhat upset.<\/p>\n
She had few friends in the company. Luckily, she got along with Kathy.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy was also sad. She had worked in NCHV Medical Company for five years. She thought she had got used to a peaceful life. But when she met those who knew before, she realized that she wanted more.<\/p>\n
If it weren\u2019t for the slander she had suffered back then, she wouldn\u2019t have decided to study for a master\u2019s degree.<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
Kathy lowered her eyes and clenched her fist.<\/p>\n
After a while, she raised her head and nodded with a smile.<\/p>\n
Kathy had her thesis defense after that of some graduates. There were some teachers she didn\u2019t know at all. But she remembered the dean of students clearly.<\/p>\n
It was she who kept questioning her years ago. She even didn\u2019t listen to her explanation and failed her directly. There was no further investigation. And her diploma was suspended.<\/p>\n
Kathy withdrew her gaze and looked at the teachers in the front row.<\/p>\n
Ten minutes later, Kathy finished representing her thesis. Then the teachers started to pose questions.<\/p>\n
The dean of students was not in charge of the assessment. But she sat here, looking at Kathy\u2019s thesis with a sneer.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, the new drug anesthesia case in your paper was already demonstrated in Ding Yan\u2019s \u2018Neurology\u2019. You\u2019re still good at plagiarism.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy frowned. She had indeed read that book, but the case in the book was completely different from hers.<\/p>\n
She explained again, but the teachers weren\u2019t convinced.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour experiments failed to clarify your argument. Medical studies develop all the time. The experiments you made five years ago are out of date.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, I know how you feel. But your thesis is terrible even according to the standards five years ago. You were so careless that you made a lot of mistakes. I can tell that you did not take your thesis seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n
The dean of students criticized her as strictly as she did five years ago. She stared at Kathy with sharp eyes.<\/p>\n
Other teachers also agreed to fail her again.<\/p>\n
Kathy\u2019s face turned pale. She was sure that those teachers had got the true thesis. She checked it over and over. It was impossible that she had made so many mistakes.<\/p>\n
Joseph sat in the last row in the classroom. It was crowded. Kathy focused on the defense, so she didn\u2019t notice him at all.<\/p>\n
The moment he spoke, he attracted the attention of almost everyone present.<\/p>\n
Next to him was the principal.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlthough there are similar points about the new narcotic drug in the book, Kathy\u2019s thesis is not focused on the effects of ketamine but on its effects on human nerves. This is completely different from what is demonstrated in \u2018Neurology\u2019. As for the details of the thesis, I, as a neurologist, found nothing wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-885","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/885","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=885"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
