Chapter 322
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 322<\/p>\n
At this moment, Kathy\u2019s phone rang. It was Zofia who called her, asking her where she was.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m at the Hon Restaurant outside campus.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s coincidental, my brother and I are here having our meal too, come eat with me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m\u2026 I\u2019m eating with Joseph.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? You\u2019re eating with your ex husband?\u201d Zofia\u2019s voice became louder, it was to purposely allow Bertie to hear.<\/p>\n
Bertie\u2019s expression darkened at that moment, and he put the menu down.<\/p>\n
Zofia smiled silently, \u201cThen I won\u2019t disturb you.\u201d<\/p>\n
When she hung up, Kathy raised her eyes and heard Joseph\u2019s voice, \u201cWho called?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cZofia.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you used to hanging out with her?\u201d He asked.<\/p>\n
Joseph and Zofia had known each other for a long time. Zofia used to go to the Joseph family\u2019s home to bring Veronica out all the time, the two had met quite a few times.<\/p>\n
He knew that she was a clever and understanding woman.<\/p>\n
\u201cZofia? She\u2019s nice, back when I was suspected of cheating, she helped me out quite a lot,\u201d Kathy smiled.<\/p>\n
Zofia was not as hard to get along as she thought. On the contrary, when the two got to know each other better, they had rather became friends.<\/p>\n
But this\u2026 might have something to do with Bertie.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe person whom you just bailed out, who is she?\u201d Kathy asked.<\/p>\n
She wanted to know who had harmed Sammy so cruelly.<\/p>\n
Since Sammy was once very close to her.<\/p>\n
\u201cVeronica\u2019s mother, she was the second wife of Diego.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy stunned for a moment, it seemed that actually Veronica and Joseph were not siblings by blood.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy would she do that?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMacie was targeting Peter,\u201d Joseph said no more.<\/p>\n
So Kathy did not ask any further, Joseph\u2019s expression was dark, it was apparent that he did not want to bring this up.<\/p>\n
The atmosphere of the meal was still considered harmonised. Kathy never thought that after their divorce, she and Joseph could still sit down so peacefully to have a meal together.<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
On the weekend, because the Marshall family was not located in City N, so Zofia went to the Joseph family\u2019s home to hang out with Veronica.<\/p>\n
Kathy was studying on her own in her dormitory, Jennifer had called her in the middle pf her studies and asked her to go home for a meal.<\/p>\n
Listening to Jennifer\u2019s sickly voice, Kathy was still quite worried. So she hailed a cab and went back.<\/p>\n
As she just got down from the cab, a familiar being walked out of the entrance.<\/p>\n
Looking at Kathy, Herbert felt surprised as well.<\/p>\n
But she then smiled quickly, \u201cIsn\u2019t this the young mistress of the Booth family?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy did not take heed of her and walked directly into the Hilton family\u2019s home.<\/p>\n
But Herbert then walked up and said in a sour tone, \u201cKathy, how could you be so lucky and inherited the billion dollar fortune of the Booth family. Why don\u2019t I have this sort of luck.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy\u2019s expression went dark, \u201cWhat do you really want to say, Herbert?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do I want to say? Kathy, I\u2019m telling you that what was between us was not cleared off yet, I won\u2019t let you off so easily.\u201c<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat will Ms Herbert do to not let me go?\u201d Kathy smiled coldly.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t know yet do you? The patents and selling rights of the best-selling medicine under the Joseph group are all sold for a low price to the Herbert group. This has saved the Herbert group from a lot of misery. The person who had made this decision was your man, Joseph.\u201d<\/p>\n
As she heard this, Kathy\u2019s face paled, Joseph was rescuing the Herbert group?<\/p>\n
The Herbert group had been close to bankruptcy before, only when it was bought by the Hilton group that the situation got better.<\/p>\n
If they were in possession of such rights, they might be able to recover.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, the person who kept harming you wasn\u2019t me but rather it was Joseph. Or else, why would he keep helping me,\u201d as she said so, Herbert left snobbishly on her heels.<\/p>\n
\u201cMum is waiting for you, go in.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy came to her senses and realised that she had been standing for too long and her legs were getting numb.<\/p>\n
This action almost caused her to fall.<\/p>\n
Billy immediately held on to her, his lips curled, \u201cI thought you were taking the initiative to be close to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy glared at him, \u201cLet go of me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course, my mum is watching,\u201d Billy loosened his grip.<\/p>\n
Then only Kathy saw that Jennifer had come outside.<\/p>\n
She had a shawl around her, her face was pale, and she kept sneezing.<\/p>\n
\u201cMum, you\u2019re having a heavy flu. Just stay where you are, I won\u2019t bully Kathy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jennifer frowned. As she saw Kathy come, only her face had a bit of a smile.<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs Booth,\u201d Kathy greeted her politely.<\/p>\n
Billy frowned, he was surprised by Kathy\u2019s greeting.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t call her \u2018mum\u2018?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, Kathy, please call me mum, alright?\u201d Jennifer\u2019s begging look made Kathy soften.<\/p>\n
But she no longer wanted to be related to the Booth family.<\/p>\n
Looking at Kathy\u2019s unpleased expression, Jennifer sighed, \u201cYour grandfather is no longer here, I only have two of you, my children left with me. For both of you to be here, only can we be a complete family.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy frowned. It seemed that she had not seen any other members of the Hilton family after so long.<\/p>\n
She only knew that her biological father had passed away years ago, and she knew nothing about the Hilton family.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll come back during the holidays, Mrs Booth,\u201d Kathy replied.<\/p>\n
She had moved from Joseph Bay, the place where she thought was home, and she could no longer go back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-988","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/988","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=988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
