Chapter 225
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 225<\/p>\n
With everything set, the cabin door was slowly closed.<\/p>\n
Hope retreating to the backdoor, Kathy had to face Peter, because her shoulders were gripped by him.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeter, it\u2019s not late for you to let me go,\u201d she persuaded him.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s not possible. Herbert has turned herself in, and she will definitely rat me out. I don\u2019t want to be behind bars!\u201d Peter\u2019s tone was hoarse and desperate.<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t work hard for so many years just to rot in prison.<\/p>\n
Now he only needed Kathy.<\/p>\n
His eyes grew passionate as he gazed at her delicate face.<\/p>\n
Kathy avoided his gaze and focused her attention on the view outside the window.<\/p>\n
The cabin door was closing, while she looked at the same direction. Then she noticed a familiar black car approaching the helicopter.<\/p>\n
Hope lit up her eyes. At a closer look, she was sure that it was Joseph.<\/p>\n
However, the helicopter was slowly ascending.<\/p>\n
The black car stopped. John quickly aimed at the helicopter and reported, \u201cMr. Joseph, Peter and your wife are both on the plane.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joseph squinted. \u201cAre the jets ready?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, standing by to attack.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joseph got out of the car. The helicopter just took off, but was surrounded by four fighter jets, unable to fly higher.<\/p>\n
Kathy had been looking down at Joseph, extremely nervous.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Champs, we are under attack.\u201d The pilot turned around with an ominous expression.<\/p>\n
Peter stuck his head out and realized that four fighter jets had cornered him. He gripped Kathy\u2019s wrist.<\/p>\n
\u201cI really underestimated Joseph.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy sneered, \u201cYou can\u2019t escape.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSays who?\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, the man wrapped his long arm around her neck. As the cabin door slowly opened, Kathy stared at Peter in panic.<\/p>\n
What did he want to do?<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t ascend. Should we land? When they start firing, we won\u2019t be able to hold long,\u201d the pilot reminded Peter.<\/p>\n
Peter squinted coldly and dragged Kathy to the door. They were only five meters above the ground, so Joseph could see them.<\/p>\n
Peter was holding Kathy as hostage!<\/p>\n
\u201cJoseph, your wife is in my hands. Tell your jets to fall back, or else I will push her down.\u201d Joseph heard every word Peter said.<\/p>\n
Joseph looked up and met Kathy\u2019s eyes which were filled with tension. His fists were tightening.<\/p>\n
Kathy was a little afraid of heights, and Peter\u2019s words made it worse. Her legs were so weak that she could hardly stand.<\/p>\n
Although the ground was not that far away, a fall to the hard surface like this would leave her in a perilous condition.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeter, you\u2019re so despicable,\u201d Kathy cursed angrily.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat would be your work. You never give me a second option!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have broken the law and deserve to be punished!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, you should blame Herbert. I\u2019m clean!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPeter, don\u2019t go down this dark path,\u201d Kathy whispered.<\/p>\n
She knew that Peter was a madman now, a completely different stranger.<\/p>\n
However, he had no way out.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, I\u2019m glad you are okay.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI got lucky.\u201d Kathy smiled. Just now, she had thought of a million possibilities of how this was going to end, with the worst being Peter escaping with her. However, she had decided to run away anyway.<\/p>\n
She never expected that Joseph would actually come.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy brother has risked his life to save you.\u201d Lincoln squinted, surprised to see that Joseph cared so much about Kathy.<\/p>\n
As far as he could remember, Joseph had only been crazy about Veronica.<\/p>\n
Joseph wasn\u2019t hurt badly. Kathy accompanied him to the hospital and he was bandaged. The doctor said that he would be fine after a few days\u2019 of rest.<\/p>\n
He checked in at the most luxurious ward. Kathy was still in shock from Peter\u2019s mad move.<\/p>\n
Kathy asked John who was standing guard outside the ward, \u201cHow is Peter?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Champs has been brought to the police station. Mr. Joseph has submitted the evidence. Herbert and Peter are both suspected of switching your paper.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy frowned. \u201cCan I see Herbert?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m on it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy came to the ward with some light food, surprised to find that Joseph was working again.<\/p>\n
Kathy\u2019s face darkened in displeasure and she turned off his computer.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou should be resting.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s just a minor injury. I don\u2019t even need to be hospitalized.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo way!\u201d Kathy insisted. She sat beside Joseph and looked at the gauze around his hand. Every time she thought of him protecting her with his own body, Kathy couldn\u2019t help but choke.<\/p>\n
Why would he do that?<\/p>\n
She turned around and asked in a low voice, \u201cJoseph, why did you come?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-891","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/891","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=891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
