âWas it you who caused the incident last night?â Billy approached Herbert and pinched her chin with an ice-cold look on his face.
Herbert looked innocent, âWhat did I do?â
âKathy was in danger last night.â Billy stared at Herbert.
Herbert frowned and pushed Billy away. âAlthough I donât like her, I wouldnât want to hurt her.â
Billy grabbed her shoulder, making her unable to move. Billy was using more and more strength, and the pain caused Herbertâs expression to change.
âBilly, why are you asking me if you donât believe my words?â Herbert said angrily.
Billy sneered, âIâm still investigating. If itâs really you, Herbert, then this is the end of our relationship.â
âNo!â Herbert immediately retorted, âBilly, we had an agreement. You canât desert me like this!â
âNobody can stop me from doing what I want. Herbert, you are just a nonentity. Donât think that you are so important to me,â Billy said indifferently as he turned around and sat down on the sofa.
The unfathomable expression on his face made it difficult for Herbert to guess what he was thinking.
Herbert bit her lips and couldnât help trembling. After a while, she approached Billy and sat beside him. âNo matter what, I will marry you.â
âDonât you love Peter anymore? Have you given up on him?â Billy suddenly pinched her shoulder.
Herbert smiled and said, âI am too good for him. Billy only we are a perfect couple.â
After saying that, she approached Billy, trying to kiss this handsome man beside her.
He pushed her away and said calmly, âYou are a snobbish woman, but I donât hate it.â
...
In the evening, the afterglow shone on Kathyâs petite figure.
Joseph held the woman in his arms, kissing her on the forehead.
When he tried to stand up, Kathy moaned and hugged him even more tightly.
The man slowly pulled out his hands and walked out of the room. John had already been waiting for him.
âWhat did you find?â Joseph sat down on the sofa.
John looked down and said in a deep voice, âThe manâs name was David. He was a terminal cancer patient. He had sent his wife and daughter abroad before he died. During the six months in the hospital, he did not contact with anyone. However, I found his phone records. He had contact with an oversea number recently. We are still searching for detailed information now.â
âI just want the results,â Joseph said coldly, âYou still have one day.â
John nodded. After John left, Joseph leaned against the sofa, looking extremely serious.
Kathy slept until night. After she woke up, Joseph quickly send someone to deliver dinner to her. Then she took a bath, which made her feel much more comfortable.
After all, what happened last night had left her a trauma.
âWhere is that person now?â Kathy asked.
She remembered that she saw John subdue him before she got in the car. Then ... what did John do afterwards?
âHe is at the police station.â Joseph did not tell Kathy that the person was dead.
âCan you find out who was behind this?â Kathyâs hands trembled. She remembered that when she asked the man, he did not deny that it was Peter who asked him to do so.
âHe didnât say anything,â Joseph said in a deep voice.
Kathy frowned, âAt that time, I thought it could be Peter who did this, and the man didnât deny it.â
âYou think itâs him?â Joseph raised his eyebrows.
âHe said he hated me.â Kathy looked down and her voice became cold.
She could understand why Peter hated her, but what he believed was not the truth at all.
âIâll keep an eye on him,â Joseph said seriously. Then he looked at Kathy gently, âDonât worry about it. Leave this matter to me.â
Kathy smiled and said, âIâve caused you trouble again.â
âIt was my fault. I failed to protect you.â
Kathy smiled. His thoughtfulness always made her feel at ease.
âI think I left my phone at the Hiltonâs.â Kathy suddenly remembered.
Just as she finished speaking, someone knocked at the door. It was Billy.
Kathy looked at Joseph, and then she went to open the door.
Seeing her blocking the door, Billy was a little unpleased. âArenât you going to let me in?â
âDid you see my phone?â Kathy ignored his words and asked directly.
Billy smiled and said playfully. âIf I say I didnât, will you close the door?â
After hearing that, Kathy immediately closed the door.
She didnât want to talk to him.
However, Billyâs hand blocked the door before it was fully closed. âYour phone is broken. I brought you a new one.â
Kathy frowned doubtfully.
âYour phone has fallen into the water. Thereâs no way to save it. This is the new phone I bought for you. I also got you a new SIM card.â Billy handed over a box.
Kathy did not take it. Behind her, Joseph walked over elegantly.
âSorry to trouble you, Mr. Hilton. But I will buy Kathy a new phone,â Joseph said indifferently.
Billy smiled and said, âI broke Kathyâs phone. No matter what, I have to compensate her. If you donât want this phone, Iâll treat you to dinner.â
Kathy said impatiently, âThank you, but I donât need it.â
Then she shut the door.
Joseph pressed her against the door and stared at her.
âYou havenât told me why you went to the Hiltonâs?â Joseph asked.
âMrs. Hilton invited me.â Kathy looked down.
She didnât tell him before because she didnât want Joseph to misunderstand her.
âHow come you left your phone there?â Joseph asked in a deep voice.
Kathy recalled the scene from last night, but she really couldnât remember when she lost her phone.
She barely took her phone out of the bag. And the bag was put aside by the servant as soon as she entered the Hiltonâs.
She didnât touch her phone in the house.
Then how did her phone fall into the water?
She didnât think too much just now, but now that Joseph reminded her, she finally realized it.
âCould it be Billy?â
âWho else went there yesterday?â Joseph asked.
âBilly picked me up at the airport. Then I had been talking to Jennifer for the whole time. And then ... Herbert came over.â
âKeep an eye on her in the future.â Josephâs face was very gloomy.
Kathy nodded. She had never had any good impression on Herbert.
âSo, are you really here because of me this time?â Kathy looked up at Joseph, her eyes shining.
Joseph nodded, and hugged her. He said intimately, âWho else can make me leave my work?â
Kathy flushed, âBut there are a lot of things to do in the Josephâs Group, right?â
Joseph always had to work overtime. Wouldnât it be inconvenient for him to handle things here?
âThe Josephâs Group also has a branch office in B City. There is no problem.â
âWhatever you say.â Kathy smiled. Then she stood on tiptoe and kissed Josephâs thin lips.
