She checked the time: three o\u2019clock in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>She removed the vein detained needle directly from the back of her hand, then found her phone and dialed Joseph\u2019s number.<\/p>\n<p>But no one ever answered.<\/p>\n<p>Her heart grew icy cold gradually.<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t want to stay here anymore, she wanted to go back to N City.<\/p>\n<p>When the doctor saw her act on the spur of the moment, he immediately stopped her, \u201cMiss Kathy, you can\u2019t get out of bed yet!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s none of your business,\u201d Kathy said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as she said this, she picked up the bag next to her and started packing.<\/p>\n<p>Bertie, who was standing aside, didn\u2019t stop her.<\/p>\n<p>She was downhearted and so was he.<\/p>\n<p>She felt pain and so did he.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, he could only indulge her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you really want to leave, let me see you off,\u201d Bertie said in a deep voice after a long while.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy turned a blind eye to him. After taking her bag, she ran out of the room and went downstairs to the living room where there were two bodyguards standing at the door.<\/p>\n<p>When they saw Kathy want to go out, they stepped forward indifferently to block her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re sorry, Miss Kathy. But you can\u2019t go out without the Master\u2019s order.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked at the two beefy men in front of her, who obviously had consummate combat skills, and she couldn\u2019t push them away at all.<\/p>\n<p>Frustration glinted in her eyes. She sat in the living room, still dialing Joseph\u2019s number persistently.<\/p>\n<p>However, a busy tone was still heard after the ringing sound.<\/p>\n<p>A moment later, a tall and slender figure came down the stairs. It was Bertie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrust me once, okay?\u201d Bertie could see her pain and struggle.<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t want to force her, and he didn\u2019t like Kathy becoming lifeless.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked up at Bertie\u2019s serious look and frowned.<\/p>\n<p>Who else could she believe?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrandpa won\u2019t let you leave the Booth Mansion. There were bodyguards inside and outside here. He won\u2019t let you go to Joseph again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>An hour later, Kathy arrived at the airport.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the man driving next to her, she didn\u2019t say a word along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Her world had been turned upside down by what happened in the past few days.<\/p>\n<p>With Zack\u2019s way of doing things, she was afraid that even if she left today, Zack would look for her in N City tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, she had to leave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve arranged a private jet for you. You\u2019ll be in N City in two hours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell.\u201d Kathy\u2019s face remained indifferent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDue to Grandpa\u2019s recent condition, he won\u2019t go to N City himself. I\u2019ve been tied up with work recently, but I\u2019ll send some people to protect you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou think Zack will take me back, don\u2019t you?\u201d Kathy asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sure of it.\u201d Bertie nodded.<\/p>\n<p>He had been with Zack since he was a child, so he knew Zack\u2019s temper and way of doing things very well.<\/p>\n<p>Since he wanted Kathy and Joseph to break up, then it was impossible for him to let them be together again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy do you tell me? Bertie, even if you help me now, I won\u2019t forgive you,\u201d Kathy said indifferently.<\/p>\n<p>This man was in cahoots with the Booth family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know, but I hope you\u2019re well.\u201d Bertie gazed at her ardently.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t that he didn\u2019t want to possess her, but that he couldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>All he ever wanted was Kathy to be with him willingly.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy turned around without any hesitation. She would no longer trust anyone in the Booth family.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The Booth family.<\/p>\n<p>Bertie frowned and stopped his Grandpa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrandpa, I promise that I\u2019ll bring Kathy back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zack paused. He had always cherished Bertie the most and had a very high opinion of him, but what he did today made him very disappointed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrandpa, due to your health condition, you can\u2019t tire yourself out and there\u2019re the best doctors for you in B Country,\u201d Bertie\u2019s voice became gentle.<\/p>\n<p>Zack straightened his face, he knew his health condition well.<\/p>\n<p>His doctor had told him that long-distance flights were absolutely forbidden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to know my granddaughter\u2019s daily activity,\u201d Zack compromised and said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll report to you, don\u2019t worry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer let out a sigh of relief. As she saw Zack go upstairs to his room, she called Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>Unexpectedly, Kathy didn\u2019t refuse to answer her call.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMrs. Booth.\u201d There was an alienation in Kathy\u2019s tone of voice, and even her title to Jennifer was no longer intimate.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer sighed and said gently, \u201cKathy, please don\u2019t blame us for this. Grandpa loves you the most. The reason he wants you to divorce is because he doesn\u2019t want you to be cheated by Joseph.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy remained silent, and she had heard it so many times.<\/p>\n<p>But she didn\u2019t think that other people had the right to make decisions for her.<\/p>\n<p>Even her family also didn\u2019t have this right.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t worry, I\u2019m already divorced,\u201d Kathy said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>She reminisced a lot on the plane, remembering the beginning of her relationship with Joseph and all the things they did when they were together.<\/p>\n<p>Last night, he agreed to divorce without hesitation.<\/p>\n<p>She couldn\u2019t know what Joseph was thinking, but deep down, she believed that he would agree to divorce her because he wanted to save her.<\/p>\n<p>But it was too unfair to her.<\/p>\n<p>She had no right to choose at all, but had to get a divorce.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs you know, your grandpa\u2019s time is running out. If you\u2019ve free time, you can come back anytime. Here will always be your home.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-964","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/964","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=964"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
