My Sweetheart

“What, are you planning to let Julian send you back?” Joseph asked coldly.

Kathy was terrified at the sound of his voice.

She wanted to retrieve her hand from Joseph’s grip, but that only caused the grip to become stronger.

She frowned as she came to a halt.

“I was waiting for a taxi just now.” She began to explain.

Suddenly, she recalled a trivial detail. She turned around and looked at that black car which was disappearing into the distance.

She had seen this exact same car before. It was the car that Herbert had gotten into as reported by the media.

At that time, she thought that this car belonged to Joseph. In hindsight, was the owner Julian all along?

“Don’t ever have anything to do with Julian.” Joseph narrowed his eyes and his face was very gloomy at that moment.

His intimidating aura successfully clammed Kathy up. However, she could see that Joseph’s face was much mellower compared to before. At least, she was sure now that Joseph had never sided with Herbert all along.

“I don’t have anything to do with him at all.” She explained.

“Stay with me.” After saying that, he motioned for Kathy to enter his car.

Kathy froze momentarily when she heard that.

She couldn’t really comprehend the meaning behind his words nor did she get into his car.

“Mrs. Joseph.” A familiar voice sounded by her ears, and Kathy felt her body slightly jerk.

She looked up and met Joseph’s deep gaze and in the next instant, his burning kiss immediately consumed her.

She was almost breathless after being caught off guard.

While she wriggled around in his embrace, she felt her body slowly losing its strength. She was lying limply in his embrace and could only support her own weight by clinging to him.

“You’ve… you’ve gone too far.” Kathy scolded him.

Joseph already carried her into his car as she said that. He helped her buckle up.

Kathy was very tired at that moment since she had experience five hours of surgery while being in a focused state. She would fall asleep at any minute.

“Have a good rest.” His long fingers glided over her brows and his tone was very gentle.

Kathy was trying to keep her eyes wide open but she couldn’t resist the comfortable ambience enveloping her. She finally gave herself up to the dream world.

The next time she opened her eyes, sunlight had dyed the sky a blinding white.

So it really happens…

She looked sideways but found no signs of Joseph. In fact, she was in her… hostel?

Kathy looked around her, trying to figure out what was going on.
