Chapter 246
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 246<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, even I couldn\u2019t do anything about Joseph. The Joseph family is a family of mystery.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCan you tell me what you know about the Joseph family?\u201d asked Kathy.<\/p>\n
She wanted to know more about the man she married.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know much, I got all my information from Lincoln. They started out in country C and practically monopolized the resources of that country. But they were very quiet about it and nobody knew about it. Lincoln told me that Joseph was fighting someone when he first saw Joseph.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was in a fight?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy was taken aback, she couldn\u2019t imagine the gentle and elegant Joseph would\u2019ve experienced something like that.<\/p>\n
Sue nodded, \u201cJoseph was only 12 back then, the person he was fighting in the hotel was his biological father. Lincoln was in the hotel at that time and that was how they got to know each other. In our impression, Joseph was always cold and merciless. I only realized how much he had changed when I came back here and saw him again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy grimaced, she didn\u2019t dare to imagine the scene that Sue had just described to her. Why did Joseph do that?<\/p>\n
Maybe because he was disappointed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know much, maybe I\u2019ll go talk gossip with Lincoln again when I\u2019m free. But maybe I don\u2019t have the chance anymore.\u201d Sue let out a long sigh.<\/p>\n
She had a very charming expression on her face whenever she mentioned Lincoln.<\/p>\n
But at the same time, she looked very dejected.<\/p>\n
\u201cSue, I will accept everything if he tells me the truth. Only if he is willing to tell me the truth,\u201d said Kathy in a soft voice.<\/p>\n
Just when would he finally open up to her?<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a group of more than ten men rushed into the shopping centre from outside, they looked like bodyguards. Sue looked down from the top floor, she was obviously flustered.<\/p>\n
Those men were people working under her grandfather, what business would they possibly have here?<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, let\u2019s go that way.\u201d Sue pulled Kathy and started running away.<\/p>\n
Kathy looked behind and the men were chasing after them, she was shocked.<\/p>\n
She followed Sue and ran through the top floor, there was another shopping centre on the opposite of the building.<\/p>\n
But they couldn\u2019t make it in time.<\/p>\n
The bodyguards were swift, Sue and Kathy were surrounded on the attic in no time.<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss, the master orders you to return immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sue bit down hard on her lips, she was still looking for a way to escape.<\/p>\n
But the only thing she could do right now was to jump off the building.<\/p>\n
And she didn\u2019t have the guts.<\/p>\n
\u201cSue, who are these people?\u201d asked Kathy worriedly.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are my grandfather\u2019s men, the person who holds the power in the Fletcher family. Quick, contact Lincoln for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
She knew that there was no way that she could escape.<\/p>\n
Kathy quickly pulled out her phone seeing Sue being taken away, but she then realized that she didn\u2019t have Lincoln\u2019s number.<\/p>\n
She needed to contact Joseph first.<\/p>\n
Kathy\u2019s hand trembled, they had not talked for a week.<\/p>\n
But Sue\u2019s safety was in question, she shouldn\u2019t hesitate.<\/p>\n
The call went through, and Kathy could hear Joseph\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Joseph.\u201d He sounded extremely tired.<\/p>\n
Kathy felt her heart throbbed.<\/p>\n
She knew that Joseph was a hard worker and he probably worked himself to death.<\/p>\n
She wondered if he rested properly without her being by his side.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2026I need to ask you something.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSay it.\u201d He had expected this, Kathy wouldn\u2019t take the initiative to call him without a reason.<\/p>\n
\u201cI need Mr. Fletcher\u2019s contact, Sue is taken away.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joseph frowned, \u201cI\u2019ll let him know about this.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnything else?\u201d asked Joseph.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you outside?\u201d asked Joseph as he heard loud noises.<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll be back next week.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joseph frowned again, did Kathy really have nothing to say to him?<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m going to hang up.\u201d It was getting really awkward and Kathy quickly hung up the call.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou think I\u2019ll listen to you?\u201d said Lincoln coldly as he squinted his eyes.<\/p>\n
He held her hand and walked into the plane with her.<\/p>\n
The bodyguards reported to the Fletcher\u2019s and the plane took off.<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
At night, Kathy was still worried about Sue. She decided to call Sue.<\/p>\n
Nobody answered the phone. Sue only managed to call her back at midnight.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, don\u2019t worry. I\u2019m fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere are you?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m currently at BV City.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s most important that you are fine now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLincoln accompanied me home, but we couldn\u2019t see each other. It\u2019s not that fine really.\u201d Sue walked out to the balcony, she understood very well what her grandfather was planning to do.<\/p>\n
She couldn\u2019t go anywhere, her movement was restricted.<\/p>\n
Lincoln was treated the same way.<\/p>\n
\u201cIs there anything that I can help with?\u201d asked Kathy sincerely.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you, Kathy. I should\u2019ve come home earlier, I was having wild hopes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her life belonged to the Fletcher family and that was why she never disobeyed their orders.<\/p>\n
But now, she wanted to rebel.<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t easy to fall in love with someone, she was like a moth to a flame.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really jealous of you and Joseph. Kathy, being together with someone I love, was something that never ever crossed my mind.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy grasped on to her phone, she could clearly feel how disheartened Sue was.<\/p>\n
Kathy walked out to the balcony after hanging up the call. Their apartment that Joseph bought was on the top floor, the view was stunning and she could see the whole city.<\/p>\n
But she was alone. She didn\u2019t feel anything even when looking at the beautiful view in front of her.<\/p>\n
What Sue just said kept repeating in her head, someone you loved\u2026<\/p>\n
Her peculiar relationship with Joseph was never like that, but everyone thought of them as the loving and harmonious couple.<\/p>\n
Even she sometimes felt that way, but it was just an illusion\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-912","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/912","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=912"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
