She immediately picked it up and handed it to him while getting up.<\/p>\n<p>However, Joseph\u2019s scent kept lingering around her for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>She walked towards where Veronica was and noticed that she was still sleeping. Kathy continued by checking Veronica\u2019s wounds and temperature. She finally relaxed as she had confirmed that Veronica was alright.<\/p>\n<p>She left the ward as it was almost time to go back to school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. Joseph, if anything happens to Veronica, please let me know.\u201d Kathy said while maintaining a distance with Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I&#8217;ll send you back.\u201d Joseph also stood up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, there is no need to bother you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s no trouble at all.\u201d Joseph\u2019s words had a slightly commanding tone to them.<\/p>\n<p>In the car, Kathy was yawning all the time. She had not slept for hours and was now very sleepy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen did you come over this morning?\u201d She asked.<\/p>\n<p>She even slept so deeply that she did not even know that Joseph had arrived.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwo hours ago, please get some sleep, I&#8217;ll drive a little slower.\u201d Joseph\u2019s hand reached over and helped her buckle her seat belt.<\/p>\n<p>The cool temperature caressed her chest, and Kathy subconsciously shivered.<\/p>\n<p>Her face even turned red.<\/p>\n<p>The man&#8217;s hand did not leave and suddenly cupped Kathy\u2019s chin. This caused Kathy to look up at him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you nervous?\u201d His voice was deep and full of attractiveness.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy\u2019s heart was beating faster&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course not, you can start driving.\u201d Kathy turned her head to look out the window.<\/p>\n<p>But Joseph pulled back towards him, \u201cJust sleep.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathy looked at him, her eyes seemingly drawn to his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>He had always known how to charm her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCall me when you get there,\u201d Kathy replied as she stopped being stubborn.<\/p>\n<p>She seemed to be able to sleep extraordinarily well only when she&#8217;s around Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>So, she did not even know that she had already arrived at school.<\/p>\n<p>When she woke up, it was almost noon, and Joseph was by her side dealing with business quietly.<\/p>\n<p>After rubbing her eyes, Kathy looked outside at the entrance of Ocean University, and then looked at the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, didn&#8217;t I told you to wake me up?\u201d She was a little angry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou don&#8217;t have classes for a few days either, so there&#8217;s no rush.\u201d It was as if he knew her class schedule well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don&#8217;t want to take up your time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t you know that I&#8217;d rather spend time with you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe&#8217;re already divorced.\u201d Kathy&#8217;s tone was slightly cold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know, my ex-wife doesn&#8217;t need to keep reminding me about that, but a divorce can\u2019t stop me from wanting to be near you, right?\u201d He clasped her wrists and pressed her onto her seat forcefully.<\/p>\n<p>The position made Kathy ashamed and annoyed, but she could not push Joseph away.<\/p>\n<p>She stared at him angrily, \u201cWhat do you mean, Mr. Joseph?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKathy, I don&#8217;t like you calling me Mr. Joseph.\u201d His eyes became intimidating.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy\u2019s heartbeat was getting even more faster.<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, Joseph\u2019s usual gentle behaviour seemed to have faded. Suddenly, he was giving off a dangerous aura.<\/p>\n<p>She gulped and was unable to make a sound for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoseph, let go of me!\u201d At the same time, Kathy raised her foot to kick him as she watched him get closer and closer.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph apparently was not expecting it as he wailed and raised his eyebrows.<\/p>\n<p>However, he still did not let go of Kathy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. Joseph.\u201d Kathy kept maintaining a distance between them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou still haven&#8217;t told me about Veronica\u2019s condition.\u201d Joseph frowned.<\/p>\n<p>In the past few days when Quinn was with Veronica, Kathy almost always explained Veronica&#8217;s condition to him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVeronica is recovering well, the professor will come over to take a look later, and if there&#8217;s nothing wrong, you can leave the hospital.\u201d Kathy said faintly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, has it been a tough few day for you?\u201d Joseph could clearly see dark circles under her eyes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is alright.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlease rest more and don&#8217;t stay up late when you go back to school.\u201d Joseph instructed.<\/p>\n<p>He knew how hard Kathy studied, and it was not uncommon for her to stay up all night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know, Mr. Joseph, if there&#8217;s nothing else, I&#8217;ll go find Professor Watson first.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After replying, she walked away without waiting for Joseph to speak.<\/p>\n<p>The man started to frown after seeing her response.<\/p>\n<p>Everything was fine, and Veronica was supposed to be able to leave the hospital, but she refused to leave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m not well yet, so let me stay here a few more days more.\u201d Veronica was in disagreement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe doctor knows your condition best, and he has agreed to discharge you from the hospital.\u201d Joseph\u2019s face was stern.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI, myself feel still very uncomfortable. So, my brother and Quinn, you can all go back first. Just let Kathy come over to accompany me!\u201d Veronica said in a rage.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was already about to go back to school, but she was called back again.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing that Veronica was unwilling to leave, the helplessness of hers can be seen under her eyes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMiss Veronica, the hospital&#8217;s beds are limited, and you&#8217;re deliberately taking up medical resources.\u201d Kathy was unhappy.<\/p>\n<p>As of right now, there were quite a few patients lined up for surgery, and Veronica only got this treatment because of her special status.<\/p>\n<p>Now that her surgery was finished, she still didn\u2019t know what\u2019s good for her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s only for a few days, so let&#8217;s continue observing my conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are not the one who runs this hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut my brother holds some shares in this hospital!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was speechless.<\/p>\n<p>She then looked at Joseph and said, \u201cThen Mr. Joseph will decide.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-994","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/994","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=994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
