Not me!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are angry with me because I agreed to divorce.\u201d Joseph narrowed his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow do I dare to.\u201d Kathy was fuming.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph was fully aware of her emotions. Her chin was pinched by Joseph and forced to look directly at him, \u201cMy ex-wife\u2019s body is full of thorns, what won\u2019t you dare to do?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s because of your unreasonable actions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joseph laughed softly, \u201cYes, I\u2019m unreasonable. But that\u2019s just to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The aircraft landed at N City airport two hours later. Kathy alighted the aircraft first and left the airport and intended to go home by herself. Joseph knew that she would reject. Without asking, he grabbed her wrist and led her to the car. Kathy was furious but he was calm and collected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI won\u2019t bother you after I send you home,\u201d Joseph said solemnly.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy frowned and looked at Joseph\u2019s firm expression and her disappointment gradually spread throughout her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen please stop sending someone to check on my movements, Mr. Joseph.\u201d Kathy composed herself quickly. From the time Joseph appeared at TC Mountain, she realized that she had never escaped the sights of Joseph. Whether he sent someone to follow her or to protect her, she didn\u2019t like to be monitored.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph\u2019s expression changed when he heard this and said sarcastically, \u201cYou don\u2019t want me to find out about your date with Bertie?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy wanted to retaliate but quickly changed her tone, \u201cIt\u2019s great that you know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The atmosphere in the car suddenly turned very cold and Kathy clearly felt Joseph\u2019s fury. Neither spoke from then on. After sending Kathy to AN road, Joseph\u2019s car quickly disappeared from Kathy\u2019s sight. She stood at the balcony and looked down for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t know what she was looking at. Perhaps she was hoping that Joseph didn\u2019t leave.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>B Country, the Booth Mansion.<\/p>\n<p>After Zack\u2019s passing, the Booth residence became very desolate.<\/p>\n<p>Billy was waiting in the living hall when Jennifer came home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou haven\u2019t gone back to N City?\u201d She frowned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom, can I stay a few more days to keep you company?\u201d Billy\u2019s tone was warm.<\/p>\n<p>But Jennifer could detect a hint of chill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI need to attend to matters at the Booth group. You should go back earlier. The Hilton group is busy as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow can the Hilton group compare to the Booth group? Zack\u2019s assets must be more than ten times the value of the Marshall group. Mom, why didn\u2019t I get a single bit of these assets?\u201d Billy\u2019s expression turned cold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat are you trying to ask?\u201d Jennifer stopped.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are not my mother.\u201d Billy\u2019s tone was very certain.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer\u2019s expression was not flustered. She knew that sooner or later Billy will know the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Now she only wanted to give her motherly love to Kathy. As for Billy, she couldn\u2019t bring herself to get close to him anymore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, you know it all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Billy laughed, \u201cOf course. You neglect me so obviously and grandfather doesn\u2019t even want to see me. How can I not know about it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChild, I\u2019m sorry.\u201d Jennifer looked down. She felt guilty when it came to Billy.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why she had already laid out a path for his future to take over the Hilton group and not to be involved with the Booth family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom, you adopted me to gain status in the family and as a result, I have my position now. You have nothing to be sorry about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer looked at Billy and clearly saw his hatred for her in his eyes. She knew how ambitious he was. To him, even the Hilton Group was insufficient. But the Booth family wasn\u2019t his home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I wish to know that since I\u2019m not your son, why do you prevent me from courting Kathy?\u201d Billy asked coldly since he had no blood-relations with her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOfficially you are still my son and this will never change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, am I still under your control?\u201d Billy\u2019s eyes start to turn red because he was upset.<\/p>\n<p>His life\u2019s decisions had always been decided by Jennifer. He never had the right to decide for himself. That\u2019s was why he rejoiced when he found out about his true identity. He thought that he was finally set free.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will repay you the money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, are you still angry with me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, but please don\u2019t interfere with my life anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI allow you to continue with your graduate school studies at Ocean University. I will respect your decision whether you want to take over the Booth Group.\u201d This was the limit of Jennifer\u2019s compromise.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, Kathy went to the University administrative office. The word of her graduate school Professor Benedict Watson accepting a research student, which was extremely rare, had spread throughout the Ocean University.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, on the first day, Kathy\u2019s information had gone viral.<\/p>\n<p>Her results as the third in her examination and first in the re-examination was envied by everyone. Furthermore, she was beautiful and her online profile was a picture of her in a white dress which made her look pure and angelic. She had many fans soon after.<\/p>\n<p>She seldom checked her Weibo account and she became uneasy when the number of her fans grew so quickly.<\/p>\n<p>But these were the least of her concerns.<\/p>\n<p>According to the school regulations, research students must stay in the school hostels. Kathy didn\u2019t expect that her roommate turned out to be Zofia.<\/p>\n<p>The two of them met once and when Zofia saw Kathy, she was equally surprised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are\u2026 Kathy?\u201d Zofia looked at her from top to bottom.<\/p>\n<p>She couldn\u2019t see how her brother can be so smitten by this woman.<\/p>\n<p>On the aspect of looks, there were many women who were prettier and sexier than Kathy around Bertie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow are you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI specialize in surgery, what about you?\u201d Zofia asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m in neurology.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNeurology? Are you the only student that Professor Watson accepted?\u201d Zofia was startled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-978","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/978","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=978"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
