How could he still protect her?<\/p>\n<p>They were two people who were separated forever. She didn\u2019t want to rely on him anymore considering the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will wait here until the day breaks.\u201d Kathy stubbornly said while turning around to face away from him.<\/p>\n<p>An intense anger caught on Joseph\u2019s face, \u201cThere is going to be a thunderstorm later on. Do you realize how dangerous it will be if you continue to stay here?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho do you think you are? Why do you think that your opinion matters to me?\u201d Kathy was suddenly infuriated as well. She stared at him without blinking.<\/p>\n<p>After hearing that, Joseph narrowed his eyes before suddenly dashing forward without warning and trapping Kathy\u2019s fragile frame in his embrace.<\/p>\n<p>He held the back of her head and started to kiss her furiously.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was rooted to the spot while her heart was in a mess. Joseph continued to hug her hard, and all she could smell was a familiar scent from long ago.<\/p>\n<p>It was Joseph\u2019s unique scent.<\/p>\n<p>Her lips had long gotten used to his kissing, so they responded to his kiss without any problems.<\/p>\n<p>Despite that, she wanted to reject him entirely.<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t want this relationship to continue as they were now.<\/p>\n<p>She finally came to her sense as she bit hard on his tongue.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph let out muffled grimace and his face took on a hideous and terrifying expression.<\/p>\n<p>She was so bold to the point that she would even bite him!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, you\u2019ve gone too far!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat if\u2026 I want to go this far?\u201d He replied hastily and immediately pressed his lips onto hers again while ignoring the pain in his tongue.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was conscious about the wound in his mouth, and she couldn\u2019t bring herself to bite him anymore\u2026<\/p>\n<p>This man really knew her well and could capture her weakness\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Her breath was completely taken away as Kathy couldn\u2019t even stand properly at that moment. She could only lean against Joseph\u2019s body.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, always remember that I\u2019m your man.\u201d His cold voice sounded next to her ears.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy smiled faintly and doled out a reply, \u201cJoseph, are you trying to bully me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes.\u201d He didn\u2019t shy away from admitting his intentions, and his mischievous hands were even starting to grope her body below her waist.<\/p>\n<p>A strange numbing sensation permeated through her body, and Kathy could only grip hard on his arms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph! Don\u2019t fool around!\u201d She was finally angry.<\/p>\n<p>He flashed a lowly smile before bending over to signal her to ride on his back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCome on up. I\u2019ll give you a piggy ride all the way there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was initially still in a quandary, but suddenly a strike of lighting dyed the sky white. It was a signal to announce the coming of a storm.<\/p>\n<p>She immediately hugged Joseph while placing her had against his shoulders. At that moment, her heart was strangely calm, which was very unusual.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy simcard has been taken away some time ago. How did you know that I would be here?\u201d Kathy asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve checked Bertie\u2019s location.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy finally understood everything.<\/p>\n<p>At the mention of Bertie, she suddenly wondered that was he still in the hills?<\/p>\n<p>When she had fallen down earlier on, the ground was so shaky that the original path was practically destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, she didn\u2019t have any intention to care about him.<\/p>\n<p>After reaching the stairs, Kathy began, \u201cYou can let me down now. I can still walk by myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t be stubborn.\u201d Joseph didn\u2019t plan to put her down.<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, an imperceptible noise began to become clear as something was approaching them from a distance away. The rescue workers had arrived.<\/p>\n<p>This sudden thunderstorm had caused many parts of the hill to collapse and incited landslides all over the vicinity. A lot of travelers were trapped because of that, but they were now being rescued one after another.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph placed Kathy on a stretcher but he didn\u2019t let go of her hands for even one. He just silently stayed by her side.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy couldn\u2019t shake off his hand so she had no choice but to let him hold her hand.<\/p>\n<p>Her field of vision was filled by Joseph\u2019s slender figure. He was bearing a serious yet worried expression on his face.<\/p>\n<p>He was obviously worried about her.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy flashed a smile without any thoughts. She thought that this was all that mattered.<\/p>\n<p>When they reached the foot of the hill, they saw a few ambulances being parked on standby. Suddenly, a figure flashed by, and Kathy somehow caught a sight of Bertie.<\/p>\n<p>There was a bandage on his arm indicating that he had a minor injury. Other than that, there was nothing wrong with him.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Kathy\u2019s condition was way worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have lost your phone?\u201d Joseph couldn\u2019t help but frown.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy simply nodded.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph first made a call to John to comb the hill thoroughly to recover Kathy\u2019s phone before handing his phone to her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ll have to excuse me.\u201d Kathy said indifferently.<\/p>\n<p>She called Alexia and filled her in with her current situation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, you\u2019re still in Country B? I thought that you have already returned\u2026 I\u2019ll come to the hospital now.\u201d Alexia replied nervously.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCome tomorrow. It\u2019s too late at night now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t wait any longer. I am really worried about you. Why did you go up that hill? You\u2019re giving me a heart attack\u201d Alexia began to nag.<\/p>\n<p>After hanging up the phone, Kathy looked up and saw that Joseph was scrutinizing her.<\/p>\n<p>She returned his phone to him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll go back with you tomorrow.\u201d He stated with his low voice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI need to sleep now, Joseph. Thank you for saving my life today.\u201d Kathy didn\u2019t know how to face him at the moment, so she didn\u2019t provide a clear cut answer. She turned off the lights and feigned sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was standing rooted to the spot by the bed, and there was a vague incomprehensible look in his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>After some time, Kathy felt him sitting down on the edge of the bed.<\/p>\n<p>The distance separating them was now very small\u2026 they were just a small distance apart.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was just right there beside her, so there was no way she could fall asleep peacefully.<\/p>\n<p>When she opened her eyes to check, Kathy met his depthless eyes that were shining like obsidian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou should go back to rest.\u201d She muttered imperceptibly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t book any hotel room.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was speechless for a moment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you planning to sleep here for the night?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After saying that, Kathy\u2019s stomach suddenly made a grunting sound. She was immediately embarrassed.<\/p>\n<p>She recalled now that breakfast was her only meal throughout the whole day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-976","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/976","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=976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
