It&#8217;s you who are dissatisfied with me doing the experiment with Joseph. You&#8217;re jealous of me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joseph frowned and helped Edith stand up, his expression sullen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Edith, go to the hospital yourself first.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joseph had seen the rapid corrosion of the skin on her calf, and his dark eyes looked even darker.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joseph, I&#8217;m sorry. But as you know, I&#8217;m married, and I won&#8217;t have any delusion about you. How could I hurt Kathy?&#8221; she said softly.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph turned a blind eye to her, instead, his gaze landed on Kathy who was two meters away.<\/p>\n<p>The harmful liquid was spilt all over the floor. Kathy had to step on the liquid to get out of there.<\/p>\n<p>It was absolutely dangerous, so she had no choice but to stay where she was.<\/p>\n<p>However, Edith still held Joseph&#8217;s hands tightly, not letting him go.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Edith, let go of my hand,&#8221; Joseph&#8217;s countenance fell.<\/p>\n<p>Edith got flurried and let go of Joseph&#8217;s hand while a well-built manly silhouette hugged her from behind.<\/p>\n<p>Conor came to her.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing the black wound on her calf, his eyes blazed with anger.<\/p>\n<p>He carried Edith in his arms and said in a deep frosty voice, &#8220;Joseph, if anything happens to her, I&#8217;ll hold you personally responsible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was not yet known whether Joseph took Conor&#8217;s words to heart because his attention had been focused on Kathy. Putting on the foot covers, he slowly approached her step by step.<\/p>\n<p>The moment his hand was about to touch Kathy, she pushed his hand away.<\/p>\n<p>Only then did he notice that her whole body was trembling. She was scared.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph crouched down, held the foot covers in his hand, and lifted her legs slowly.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy pursed her lips, staring at the handsome face close at hand, she gradually felt a sense of relief.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re all right, Kathy.&#8221; He held her hand with his warm palm.<\/p>\n<p>He couldn&#8217;t conceal the worry in his eyes, held her face and gave a kiss on her forehead comfortingly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you believe me?&#8221; Kathy asked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kathy, no matter what happens, I&#8217;ll always believe in you.&#8221; Joseph looked down at her, touching her forehead with his forehead. His body was trembling just like her.<\/p>\n<p>In the car, Joseph fastened his gaze on Kathy&#8217;s face.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was stared into nervousness and uneasy by his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You\u2026don&#8217;t stare at me.&#8221; A faint pink coloured Kathy&#8217;s cheek.<\/p>\n<p>What Edith had just said flashed through her mind. She asked him, &#8220;If I&#8217;m disfigured, would you despise me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, you won&#8217;t be disfigured. Kathy, don&#8217;t talk nonsense.&#8221; Joseph looked solemn.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just now, Edith told me that you would despise me. You two are close, and she should know you very well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy said, somewhat jealous.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph held her face and leaned down on her. She was trapped by him and had nowhere to escape.<\/p>\n<p>He said deeply, &#8220;The only person I want to know more about is you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy paused. Why would she inexplicably have her mind in the gutter?<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t come out of the trance, yet she had been kissed by Joseph ardently. His kisses were domineering and authoritative, making her addicted to his kisses.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>In the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>The skin on Kathy&#8217;s arm was burned by the solution for a long time. Although the wound had been treated, the doctor said it might leave a scar.<\/p>\n<p>The location of the wound was not obvious, but it was still clearly visible when she raised her arm.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph asked John to buy scar cream. He said to Kathy in a low deep voice, &#8220;I won&#8217;t let your wound heal with a scar, don&#8217;t worry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy gave him a smile. She actually didn&#8217;t care so much.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, she was angry at being intentionally hurt by Edith.<\/p>\n<p>At night, when they returned to Joseph Bay, Kathy was in a state of anxiety all night. After Joseph stayed in bed with her for a while, she finally fell asleep.<\/p>\n<p>But she slept restlessly, her hand kept tugging his robe.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph got up from the bed and called John.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let the Legal Department work out a termination agreement. The Joseph&#8217;s group is going to suspend cooperation with HL Pharmaceutical Company.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>HL Pharmaceutical Company was Edith\u2019s new company.<\/p>\n<p>Soon after he hung up the phone, Conor called him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why are you so desperate to stay by his side?&#8221; Conor pinched her chin, and his eyes were blazing with anger.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, he didn&#8217;t agree with the cooperation between Edith and Joseph, but she insisted on going her own way, he had no choice but to comply with her wish.<\/p>\n<p>But since such a thing happened, no matter who was right or wrong, he didn&#8217;t want Edith to stay here again.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, he couldn&#8217;t wield a lot of influence here.<\/p>\n<p>Edith pursed her lips, &#8220;What do you mean?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know what you are thinking about, but don&#8217;t keep pushing my button. I love you and that&#8217;s why I always indulge you. But please bear your identity in mind, Mrs. Nicholson,&#8221; he reminded her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve never forgotten it, but this project is very important to me and I can only work with Joseph,&#8221; Edith said in a low voice.<\/p>\n<p>She and Joseph had already discussed this medicine when they were in university, and they both had reached a high degree of consensus on this medicine, so she hoped that she could develop it as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>No one except Joseph reached this reasonable level of competence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know this is your wish, I can help you realize it too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Edith looked frosty and said, &#8220;Only he can help me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, Conor let go of her hand with his face contorted with rage. &#8220;Tonight, go back to Country B with me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What if I don&#8217;t?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you think Joseph will allow you to stay?&#8221; Conor said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>The colour drained from Edith\u2019s face. Looking at the agreement next to her, she bit her lip firmly.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>At Joseph Bay.<\/p>\n<p>These days, Kathy didn&#8217;t go out while Joseph didn&#8217;t go to work in Joseph&#8217;s Group as well. Only John would come to report to him the progress of the work.<\/p>\n<p>The wedding dress had been delivered. Kathy looked at the dress studded with diamonds, she didn&#8217;t even want to hold it in hand.<\/p>\n<p>It was like a sweet dream.<\/p>\n<p>The memories after she married Joseph came to her mind. For her, she was not entirely altruistic about this wedding.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door. Joseph put his work aside and came to her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let me help you put on the dress.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-931","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/931","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=931"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
