Chapter 290
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 290<\/p>\n
Suddenly, there was a violent sound from the elevator, and the calling machine responded.<\/p>\n
Kathy picked up the interphone,\u201d We are trapped in the elevator.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI have arranged rescue personnel, Kathy, I am here.\u201d<\/p>\n
He was here.<\/p>\n
Kathy finally relaxed.<\/p>\n
But in the next second, Edith frantically pulled Kathy’s hair.<\/p>\n
“You bastard, you must die…”<\/p>\n
\u201cOuch\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy didn’t hold back the scream, and subconsciously pushed Edith away.<\/p>\n
She was hit on the back of her head and fell to the ground.<\/p>\n
Kathy was startled. When she turned around, the smell of blood made her tense.<\/p>\n
Edith didn’t seem to move\u2026<\/p>\n
She squatted down to help Edith up, and couldn\u2019t talk to Joseph.<\/p>\n
But she didn\u2019t response at all.<\/p>\n
\u201cEdith!\u201d<\/p>\n
She turned on the flashlight and saw the injury on Edith’s forehead, which must be dealt with immediately.<\/p>\n
But she had nothing here.<\/p>\n
She hurriedly picked up the interphone, \u201cJoseph\u2026Edith is unconscious\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy panicked without hearing Joseph\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n
Joseph\u2019s voice came again a few minutes.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy looked up and watched the elevator doors open little by little. Finally, Joseph’s long figure came into her view.<\/p>\n
She breathed a sigh of relief, and fell right on her rear, seeming like she was wiped out.<\/p>\n
Joseph strode in, held Kathy’s cold hands, and took her into his arms.<\/p>\n
He frowned when he saw the blood on Edith\u2019s face.<\/p>\n
He said to the security guard behind him, \u201cCall an ambulance.\u201d<\/p>\n
“Let’s go back first.” Joseph didn’t want Kathy to stay in this bloody place.<\/p>\n
Kathy nodded, and asked when she thought of Edith, “She is your sister, don’t you go to the hospital?”<\/p>\n
\u201cI will ask Conor Nicholson to go.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pursing her lips, Kathy got on the car and was still in shock.<\/p>\n
The chilling scream of Edith seemed to still linger in her ears.<\/p>\n
\u201cHas she ever been raped before?\u201d Kathy asked.<\/p>\n
Joseph frowned and said, \u201cYes. She stayed in the Wesley family when she was young, and her uncle tried to rape her, so I took her to the Joseph family later.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy realized that Edith\u2019s childhood was overshadowed by Living in such an environment.<\/p>\n
Joseph was the one who pulled her out of trouble. She could understand Edith’s feelings for him.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you thinking about?\u201d Noticing her silence, Joseph turned Kathy\u2019s face and asked.<\/p>\n
Kathy shook his head, but her expression showed that something was bothering her.<\/p>\n
“I was wondering why you didn’t like her.\u201d Kathy murmured.<\/p>\n
Joseph squinted and knocked on her head, “Don’t think about these all day long.”<\/p>\n
\u201cFine.\u201d<\/p>\n
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, Joseph saw that there were several injuries on her arms.<\/p>\n
Maybe she and Edith collided just now.<\/p>\n
“I shouldn’t have agreed that you work with her.” Joseph said coldly.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is just an accident and had nothing to do with her.\u201d Kathy explained.<\/p>\n
\u201d I knew that you two didn’t get along well.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy pursed her lips and smiled ,\u201d You have so many admirers, wouldn’t I be tired if I avoided all of them?\u201d<\/p>\n
Joseph turned his head and smiled, \u201cAre you jealous?\u201d<\/p>\n
there was a slight blush on Kathy\u2019s cheeks,\u201d No.\u201d<\/p>\n
After returning to the Booth\u2019s residence, Joseph asked the servants to bring the medicine box.<\/p>\n
Kathy sat on the sofa and Joseph applied medicine on her wounds.<\/p>\n
He had have access to the Booth family. And she would inevitably have to meet him in the Booth Group.<\/p>\n
“I’ll spend more time with grandpa these days.”<\/p>\n
The next day, Kathy rested at home, and took a walk with her grandpa after breakfast.<\/p>\n
She didn’t know how to tell grandpa about her going back to City N.<\/p>\n
Realizing that Kathy had something to say, Zack sat down and said,\u201d You can say what you want. Is it something I would be angry with?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy pursed her lips, “Grandpa, I’m going back to City N next week.”<\/p>\n
Sure enough, Zack\u2019s face was cloudy.<\/p>\n
\u201cDoes Joseph ask you to go back?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, with school term approaching, I want to go back and prepare for the course.\u201d<\/p>\n
“Really?” Zack stroked his chin and narrowed his eyes.<\/p>\n
Kathy nodded, of course she couldn’t tell him that Joseph asked for it.<\/p>\n
She thought it was strange that the relationship between Zack Booth and Joseph was not very harmonious.<\/p>\n
But they were polite when they got along with each other.<\/p>\n
“I don’t know when I’ll see you again when you’re going back.” Zack lamented.<\/p>\n
He had only four months left.<\/p>\n
Kathy also knew that, and looked mournful.<\/p>\n
Every moment of her getting along with her grandpa was a countdown.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrandpa, I\u2019ll come back every month to visit you.” Kathy sucked her nose.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know your intention. You are young and you should have your own life\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGrandpa.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zack waved his hand, “I have made a will, my property will be all yours.”<\/p>\n
She looked down and didn\u2019t feel happy.<\/p>\n
She knew that it was the responsibility she had to shoulder.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour mother is in charge of domestic business of the Booth Group, and Bertie temporarily controls the foreign industries. But it will be all handed over to you later.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-956","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/956","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=956"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
