âI donât dare to delay Master Fletcher, after all, youâve been so concerned over me, I canât keep squeezing you, right?â Joseph raised his eyebrow and smiled.
âHmph, if you donât let me stay, Iâll go to Hilton Group.â Lincoln said intentionally.
Joseph and he knew each other for a long time and didnât take it seriously. Initially, Lincoln was willing to come to the Joseph Group firstly because of Joseph, and another reason was that they had a common enemy.
âThe Hilton Group acquired the Herbert Group and can be considered a merger. Kingston was a powerful figure in N City for the past few years.
Billyâs move was very conservative.â When they started to talk about work, Joseph chillingly frowned.
In his estimation, Peter wonât be bankrupt so easily.
âEven if they join forces with the Herbert Group, they are no match for our prowess. Joseph, after all these years, I canât endure it anymore.â Lincoln coolly squinted his eyes.
The two of them chatted about work in the office. Lincoln just came back to N city and they called a few friends to join them at the bar that night.
âJoseph, do you want to call your wife along? Iâm very curious about her.â Lincoln held onto the wine glass and squinted his eyes.
After all, all this while Joseph isnât interested in womanizing and suddenly he was married. He was curious about how it happened.
âSheâs working at NCHV Medical Company. If you want to see her, come for a meeting tomorrow.â At this moment, Johnson also came.
âSo, who is she?â Seeing that Joseph was tightlipped, Lincoln turned and asked Johnson.
Johnson had a look at Joseph, raised his eyebrow, and said, âSheâs not in our circle of friends.â
âSo your grandfather agreed?â Lincoln asked.
âGrandfather accepted and he was very satisfied,â Joseph said.
âJohnson, then Iâll come for the meeting tomorrow.â Lincoln looked at him and raised his glass.
Joseph frowned silently and checked on his phone, it was past midnight.
She should already be asleep.
At this moment, John walked in and leaned forward next to Joseph and said, âBilly mentioned to the higher-ups about the rejection, now HY Group temporary doesnât need to relocate to Africa.â
Joseph was calm and his mood didnât change drastically.
He twirled his wine glass, the scarlet red wine reflected in his deep eyes and the chill was overflowing.
âHowâs the investigation into todayâs matters?â
âIndeed it was Peter who used Missus to threaten Billy. Thereafter Billy and Peter had a long talk.â
âBilly is related to your wife?â Lincoln asked coldly.
Joseph maintained his cool and his entire aura was very insidious.
It was as if the wine glass would shatter in his hand. He nonchalantly said, âKathy is too naïve and Billy approached her on his own. She wouldnât detect it.â
âI found out that Kathyâs mother Angela and Mrs. Hiltonâs relationship was complicated. Joseph, you should take note.â Johnson cautioned.
If Kathy has to lean on Billy, then Joseph must be extra careful.
âShe is my wife, I trust her,â Joseph said sternly.
Joseph left soon after.
Lincoln frowned in dissatisfaction, âJoseph, to think that I just came back! Come back here! We shall drink to our heart's content!â
Joseph didnât stop but when he stepped out of the private room, Edith walked over.
When she saw that Joseph wanted to leave, she looked upset, âJoseph, I just came, donât go back so early.â
Joseph said expressionlessly, âEdith, my wife is at home waiting for me.â
After he said that, he left in big strides.
Edithâs disappointment began to spread. When Lincoln saw her standing at the door, he invited her in.
âDo you know before about his marriage?â Lincoln asked.
Edith nodded, âSeveral months ago I went on a business trip and met Joseph. At that time, he was already with Kathy.â
âThis guy is too much! Iâm the only one who doesnât know about this! Looks like Iâve arranged wrongly.â Lincoln slapped his forehead. If he had known that Joseph was married, he wouldnât have arranged for Edith to go to the Joseph Group.
Edithâs interest was on Joseph but now if he were to retract his orders, then it will reflect negatively on Edith.
Joseph Bay.
Kathy took a shower early and laid on the bed but she tossed and turned and couldnât sleep.
She wanted to call Joseph but when she thought about his cold and distant expression, she put down her phone.
Familiar footsteps can be heard from outside and Kathy could tell that Joseph was back.
She immediately covered her head with the blanket with her back towards the door.
When Joseph came back, his body reeked of alcohol and Kathy frowned.
So he had gone for a drink?
The blanket was dragged away and Joseph turned on the lights. Under the warm lights, his handsome brows and eyes frowned slightly as he looked at Kathy but remained silent.
Kathy closed her eyes but her eyelashes were twitching and revealed that she was faking.
The familiar breathing was getting closer and closer. Kathy thought that Joseph wanted to kiss her and immediately opened her eyes and was on the alert.
âYou... stay away from me!â Kathy raised her hand and pushed Josephâs shoulders.
But heâs large hands grabbed Kathyâs small hands and Kathy was unable to resist and was completely trapped below him.
âStay away from you? Missus Joseph, we are supposed to sleep together.â He said sternly.
âArenât you angry with me? If so, donât come near me.â Kathy said angrily.
In the evening she spent a lot of effort preparing dinner for him and to think that he ended up going for a drink!
My Sweetheart ï¤Chapter 154 You are Asking for Trouble Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad Joseph squinted and pinched Kathyâs chin until she had no choice but to look at him, âYes, Iâm very angry but Iâm angry with myself. When you were threatened by Peter, I wasnât by your side and I wasnât the one who saved you.â
Kathy was puzzled, so... is Joseph feeling guilty?
But it was her who rejected Joseph accompanying her and she doesnât want to be seen with him in public.
She canât blame him for that.
Kathy bit her lip in heartache when she saw Josephâs disappointment with himself.
What he had done had already exceeded their agreed relationship.
âKathy, next time Iâll lock you to my side, okay?â Josephâs face leaned nearer and pressed onto Kathyâs forehead. His every word sank into her ears.
What a bully.
But Kathy wasnât disgusted.
She had been back at NCHV Medical Company for a month but she missed working with Joseph.
She thinks of him during work, she thinks of him when sheâs resting. She thinks of him all the time.
Sheâs really... really mad.
âWhy are you so excessive?â She looked at Joseph and pushed his chest, but... she could budge it.
He smiled and his voice was soft and deep, âYes, and I can be even more excessive. Mrs. Joseph, if something really happens to you, I donât know what will I do...â
Kathyâs heart raced, her breath was already stolen by Joseph. He firmly pressed her onto the bed and proceeded.
