She tossed and turned. She couldn\u2019t fall asleep.<\/p>\n<p>She heard the thunder and opened her eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Unexpectedly, Joseph was beside her.<\/p>\n<p>He held her slender waist. They were intimate.<\/p>\n<p>Wasn\u2019t he in the living room?<\/p>\n<p>Kathy tried to push him away, but she failed.<\/p>\n<p>He said in a hoarse voice, \u201cLet me accompany you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy bit her lips and wanted to refuse, but she nodded honestly.<\/p>\n<p>She was scared. She wanted to stay by his side.<\/p>\n<p>However, she didn\u2019t want to continue like this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI won\u2019t lie on the bed. I\u2019ll hug you like this.\u201d Knowing that Kathy resisted, Joseph sat beside the bed.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy turned her back to him, but she was sober.<\/p>\n<p>The rain stopped. It was quiet in the room. The sound of breathing could be heard.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy turned around and noticed that Joseph was looking at her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m going to sleep. Have a good night.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood night, Mrs. Joseph.\u201d He closed the door when he went out.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy stopped him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeave the door open.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph nodded and lay on the sofa. He didn\u2019t tuck himself in and closed his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>She could see his back vaguely through the corridor.<\/p>\n<p>The next day, it was sunny. The bedroom was bright.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy had her schedule. She got up at eight o\u2019clock on time.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph had left.<\/p>\n<p>He made the sweet pumpkin porridge. Kathy liked it.<\/p>\n<p>There was a note next to it, \u201cMrs. Joseph, have breakfast and study hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph encouraged her.<\/p>\n<p>She took a deep breath, threw the note away and left.<\/p>\n<p>In the following days, Kathy almost didn\u2019t go out. Every day, Joseph knocked on the door to call her to eat breakfast and dinner, but Kathy didn\u2019t go to his home.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The night before the exam, Kathy went out to relax.<\/p>\n<p>Although these days were painful, she felt fulfilled and forget some troubles temporarily.<\/p>\n<p>In the evening, Kathy went to a hotpot restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>Soon, a person sat down on the opposite side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, you followed me,\u201d Kathy said angrily.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI come here every day. I think that I might see you one day,\u201d Joseph smiled.<\/p>\n<p>This hotpot restaurant was in AN Road Community. She and Alexia always came here in the past. Even the owner was familiar with her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy didn\u2019t believe Joseph. He was so busy. He didn\u2019t like a noisy place like the hotpot restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to eat alone,\u201d Kathy said unhappily.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI won\u2019t disturb you. We will eat separately.\u201d Joseph raised an eyebrow.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was speechless. He was right.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph sat opposite her, so she couldn\u2019t ignore him.<\/p>\n<p>After ordering the dishes, Joseph ordered the same hotpot condiments as her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy wore her headphones to avoid being attracted by Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>However, it was difficult.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was handsome. Even in the hotpot restaurant, he attracted many girls. They looked at him.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy ate quietly, but she was disturbed.<\/p>\n<p>Some fans recognized Joseph and asked for his autographs.<\/p>\n<p>It had been several months since Joseph departed his job, but he was more famous. As the president of the Joseph\u2019s Group, he was more eye-catching.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy pretended to be indifferent, but she didn\u2019t notice that the hotpot soup splashed.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph reached out and blocked her hand.<\/p>\n<p>His hand was burned.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy put down her chopsticks nervously and held his hand. \u201cAre you alright?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then she realized what she was doing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you take the subway, I\u2019ll take the subway with you.\u201d Joseph was opinionated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t care.\u201d She couldn\u2019t change his mind.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMrs. Joseph, no matter what, I will be by your side.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before she walked into her home, Joseph hugged her slender waist and kissed her forehead.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked up at him. He was so handsome that she was fascinated by him.<\/p>\n<p>She held her breath and enjoyed the moment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have to go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She pushed him away.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph stared at her until she closed the door.<\/p>\n<p>She leaned against the door and smelled Joseph\u2019s aura.<\/p>\n<p>She missed him.<\/p>\n<p>When she saw him, she wanted to stay far away from him.<\/p>\n<p>The next day, Kathy woke up early, recited for a while and set off.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph stood outside the door. He was waiting for her.<\/p>\n<p>He wore a casual white shirt and black trousers. He was handsome.<\/p>\n<p>He stretched out his hand. She looked down and ignored him.<\/p>\n<p>She bypassed him.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph followed her and took her bag.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was shorter than him. Even if she stood on tiptoe, she couldn\u2019t get her bag back.<\/p>\n<p>She glared at him angrily.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet in the car. I\u2019ll return the bag to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was angry. He threatened her.<\/p>\n<p>However, she didn\u2019t have time to hesitate. She must take the examination. She got on the car.<\/p>\n<p>The breakfast was placed on the passenger seat. She picked it up.<\/p>\n<p>It was an egg burger. She often went to this breakfast shop.<\/p>\n<p>When did Joseph know her taste so well?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-908","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/908","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=908"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
