My Sweetheart

“You were in danger. Did you think I was going to stand by?” Joseph pinched her chin with his slender fingers, sounding serious.

“But you could be in danger.” Kathy’s voice trembled.

“Your safety comes first.”

Kathy bit her lips, feeling touched.

Did that mean Joseph put her first?

“Thank you,” Kathy whispered.

“You’re my wife. Who else is going to protect you?” Joseph looked at her.

“However, that’s only my title.” They had no real feelings for each other.

A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Raising his eyebrows, he asked, “Not satisfied?”

“No.” Kathy avoided his eyes.

Being his wife was enough.

She didn’t want to get too close with him.

In the evening, John came over to report that Peter and Herbert had been arrested. Bribery alone could put them behind bars. However, they were not convicted yet. The court day started next week, and Kathy needed to be there.

Now that Billy and Herbert were no longer engaged, the Herberts were in a bad place.

Kathy was calm. The matter involved a lot of people, and she hadn’t had much hope for a thorough investigation. Now everything was progressing beyond her expectations.

Joseph stayed in the hospital for three days, and Kathy asked for leave to accompany him.

Lincoln and Sue visited them every day, but Lincoln did not look happy doing it. He was jealous of Joseph and Kathy being so close.

Sue and Kathy chatted. Lincoln sat beside the hospital bed and teased, “Have you been having a good time?”

“Jealous?” Joseph lazily raised his eyebrows.

“How can I? You’re my boss.”

“When do you plan to go back to the Fletcher’s?”

“Never. Do you think that will work?” Lincoln squinted.

He had long decided to not return to that place.

However, the consequences were hard to bear.
