I told you, I&#8217;ll beat you up whenever I see you!&#8221; Aaron said ruthlessly.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph&#8217;s expression remained unchanged, and he remained his usual gentle self when facing Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>But in his eyes, there was a coldness that extended on and on.<\/p>\n<p>Their sedan started to drive off slowly. Kathy was still shocked by Aaron&#8217;s actions just now.<\/p>\n<p>Glancing at the back of Joseph&#8217;s bleeding hand, she grabbed his hand worriedly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, don&#8217;t drive anymore.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not in the way.&#8221; Joseph&#8217;s face softened a bit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll give you a quick bandage and let me drive,&#8221; Kathy said.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, she clearly noticed that Joseph&#8217;s mood was not good either.<\/p>\n<p>Back at Joseph Bay, Kathy asked Joseph to rest nicely while she cooked dinner tonight.<\/p>\n<p>The maid had already bought all the ingredients, and Kathy made a soup. Seeing that Joseph didn&#8217;t stay in the living room, he must have been working in the home office again.<\/p>\n<p>Soon John came over and reported to Joseph about the company&#8217;s affairs.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy served him a bowl of soup.<\/p>\n<p>John was busy waving his hand, he wouldn&#8217;t dare&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy saw his rejection and smiled, &#8220;Joseph and I can&#8217;t finish it, so help us out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Even with that, John was still not dared to accept her offer.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy frowned, thinking he should be fear of Joseph&#8217;s might.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you don&#8217;t drink it, you&#8217;re disrespecting me as Mrs Joseph?&#8221; Kathy deliberately pretended to be angry.<\/p>\n<p>John was terrified. The boss was in the home office, and he couldn&#8217;t go in if he didn&#8217;t drink the soup.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing that John finally gave in, Kathy smiled in satisfaction and continued to pound away in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>After they talked about business, John left shortly afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>When Joseph came out, he saw the empty soup bowl on the dining table.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mrs Joseph is nice to her subordinates, eh?&#8221; Joseph smiled with his thin lips.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was cutting vegetables and looked up when he heard what Joseph said, &#8220;Well, people are working for you after all and you always have a straight face, how distant.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy turned her head and raised her hand to pinch Joseph&#8217;s handsome face.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, when Joseph was still a doctor, he didn&#8217;t like to smile. But now that he&#8217;s a boss, he&#8217;s even less likely to smile.<\/p>\n<p>The next second, Kathy&#8217;s hand was held by Joseph, he bit his thin lips, &#8220;I don&#8217;t like people approaching me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What about me?&#8221; Kathy said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Except for Mrs Joseph.&#8221; He closed his eyes and pushed Kathy towards and against the wall, followed by a searing kiss.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>With a month to go before the wedding, Kathy was free to go over to stay with her grandfather.<\/p>\n<p>He was her family, after all. Although she hadn&#8217;t had the chance to spend time together in the past, at this time she wanted to spend these last six months with her grandfather.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Booth often came over as well, but she didn&#8217;t have a good relationship with Zack Booth, the only reason she came was to discuss the wedding with Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>The Booth family&#8217;s roots were initially from abroad. Over the years as Jennifer took charge of the Booth&#8217;s Group, the business gradually moved back to City N.<\/p>\n<p>However, their focus remained overseas.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy wasn&#8217;t interested in the Booth family&#8217;s assets, but Jennifer would always hint her at it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, your grandfather&#8217;s property will all be yours in the future, including the Booth&#8217;s Group. I know you&#8217;re preparing to continue your studies as a postgraduate, but in the next few years, I want you to learn how to take over the Booth&#8217;s Group as well,&#8221; Jennifer spoke with deep concern.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was stunned, the Booth&#8217;s Group&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>She knew who she was and what was her situation. Some things were inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Came to visit President Joseph?&#8221; She asked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes.&#8221; Kathy said with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It just so happens that I am, too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Edith was looking for Joseph on a business matter and had already made an appointment, so she entered the office first.<\/p>\n<p>John was outside of the office, and when he saw Kathy, he came forward with some trepidation, &#8220;Madam, it will only take a moment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay.&#8221; Kathy sat down at her original workplace, not wanting to disturb Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer had basically prepared the whole wedding. Joseph chose the wedding dress, and there was nothing for her to worry about as a bride.<\/p>\n<p>After a phone conversation with Alexia to inform her about the wedding, Alexia was thrilled.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dr Joseph finally enlightened? Too bad I&#8217;m married and can&#8217;t be a bridesmaid for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s grandfather&#8217;s request, he doesn&#8217;t have much time left, I&#8217;m sort of fulfilling his wish. As for Joseph, I&#8217;m surprised that he&#8217;s willing to cooperate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dr Joseph likes you. Of course, he would like to.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8230; &#8220;Kathy frowned, &#8220;It is just that I&#8217;m Mrs Joseph.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Stop thinking about nonsense and get ready for the wedding. By the way, how&#8217;s the postgraduate entrance exam going?&#8221; Alexia asked with concern.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I should be fine when the results come out tomorrow. I think I did pretty well.&#8221; Kathy confidently said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I believe you can do it too. I&#8217;ll come over, and we&#8217;ll celebrate then!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After hanging up the phone, Edith also came out of the office.<\/p>\n<p>John immediately went in, &#8220;President Joseph, your wife came over.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On the itinerary, Joseph would be doing research with Edith later, but now Kathy had come over.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What?&#8221; Joseph unexpectedly raised his eyebrows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-929","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/929","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=929"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
