My Sweetheart

Hearing Veronica talk about Kathy, Joseph screwed up his face.

"I'm gonna stay with you tonight."

"Did you quarrel with Kathy?" Veronica asked curiously, her eyebrows raised.

Joseph did not answer. He pushed her in and changed the subject. "I'll cook for you. You are poorly skinny."

Veronica pouted and looked at her brother worriedly.

'Why Joseph is haggard?'

After dinner, Joseph and Quinn were having a video conference.

Veronica sobbed when she heard Quinn's voice.

Standing at the door of the study, she covered her mouth in case that they would hear her sobbing.

Oh, she missed Quinn so badly and wanted to see him.

It wasn't until the conference ended that Veronica burst into tears.

She had been trapped by Reece for wholly seven days. Each day was a torment for her.

Joseph walked over and patted Veronica's shoulder to comfort her.

"Veronica, everything will be better. I'm always here for you." He said in a low voice.

Veronica nodded, had a stronger desire to see Quinn. It was so hard for her to get a hold of this burning desire.

"Joseph, don't go. I need you these days." Veronica looked at him with tearful eyes.

"I will stay here with you."

After getting Veronica to sleep, Joseph left his sister's bedroom and returned to his study. He stood in front of the French window. His head was full of Kathy who was so delicate.

He took out a cigarette and lit it, held it between his fingers. However, he missed Kathy more greatly.

After a while, he stubbed out the cigarette and left for Joseph Bay.

As the car drove into the residential area, he saw a familiar person coming out from Joseph Bay.

She wore a pure white slim dress with long hair down to her shoulders. He couldn't see her face clearly, but the silhouette was very familiar. She was obviously the one he missed these days.

He tightened his grip on the steering wheel. His eyes were burning with desire.
