My Sweetheart

As the time for Kathy to leave City N drew nearer, she practically spent every day with her grandfather.

Kathy just found out that it’ll be grandfather’s birthday in a couple of days.

The Booth family didn’t want to hold an extravagant banquet. They planned to celebrate the Old master’s birthday at the Booth residence.

Kathy was struggling to think of what present to get for her grandfather and asked Alexia for suggestions.

“Are you in B country? It’s a pity I’m not back yet. I heard that there is a shop over there which sells some precious medicinal herbs. Your grandfather’s health is frail. Why don’t you get some rare medicinal herbs for him? I think it’ll do some good for his health.”

Kathy paused for a moment, this was something she didn’t think of.

Grandfather has a private doctor to manage his nutrition so she never needed to worry about it.

After hanging up the call, she looked for the doctor to inquire. Recently he had been looking for a type of herb in the hope of sustaining grandfather for a while longer.

“Ms. Kathy, it would be great if you can find this herb.”

Kathy took over the prescription and waited for Joseph to come back before asking him if he could locate it.

With Joseph’s contacts and being the head of the medical research center, it shouldn’t be too difficult for him.

“This medicinal herb can only be found in B Country. Wait for my news.”

“Really?” Kathy’s eyes lit up.

Joseph grinned, “I’ve said before, as long as it’s Mrs. Joseph’s requests, I will endeavor to fulfill them.”

The next day, Joseph rescheduled his morning engagements and went out with Kathy.

The both of them had been in B Country for a while but this was the first time they went out together.

Kathy wore an off-white dress and put on light make up.

Joseph held onto her hand, “Do you want to date me?”

Kathy laughed, “Yes, will Mr. Joseph accept?”

“I can’t wait to.” Joseph lifted her face and kissed her affectionately.
