It was night now, but Joseph still didnât come back.
Kathy received a phone call from Angela. Todayâs headlines were all about NCHV Medical Company, so Angela inevitably saw it as well.
Besides, the news concerned Peter. Angela was even more worried.
âKathy, do something happen to NCHV Medical Company?â
âYes.â Kathy frowned.
For now, NCHV Medical Company was under investigation. The employees were notified of companyâs decision that they can be on leave now.
The situation NCHV Medical Company faced now was even worse than last year when it was once on the verge of bankruptcy.
Kathy couldnât help but feel a little guilty as she thought of the Lincolnâs angry face in the morning.
Perhaps, to revenge Kathy, Peter took advantage his motherâs death to fight with NCHV Medical Company.
âDoes it mean that you are out of work?â
âMom, donât worry. I plan to pursue my postgraduate study, so I am prepared to resign.â
âWell, youâve worked there for five years. Itâs good to have such a sound job. Havenât you given up the idea of postgraduate study? Why would you have that thought again? Take it easy, I would ask someoneâs favor to give you a job...â Angela said worriedly.
Kathy frowned. Her motherâs thoughts were not unfamiliar to her. The job in NCHV Medical Company had little room for promotion in her eyes, but its merit was sound and riskless. Angela was satisfied with fact that Kathy could have this kind of work guarantee.
In Angelaâs view, Kathyâs plan of postgraduate study at the cost of job was unrealistic.
Moreover, Kathy was already married. As Kathy had her family, she should set her family as the focus of her life.
âMom, Iâve already decided and I wonât plan to have a new job now.â Her gentle tone carried a note of toughness.
Kathy rarely retorted Angela. In the past years, she always complied with Angela, but on the matter of her postgraduate study, her decision was unchangeable.
âNo, you shall come back immediately. Does Dr. Joseph agree to this? You still do not consider having a baby this year. How old are you?â
Kathy was annoyed and quickly hung up the phone.
To have a children ... was something not on her agenda.
Joseph didnât return until midnight. Kathy comforted herself with words that everything was fine, but she couldnât help but call him.
When Joseph saw Kathyâs call, it was an hour later. The meeting he had held just ended, but there were still a lot of things to be done.
Kathyâs phone was placed beside her ear, so she heard the call as soon as the phone buzzed. She pressed the answer button, but she was not awake from her sleep.
âMrs. Joseph.â Josephâs deep voice rang out.
âOh.â
âYou may sleep. Iâll come back to accompany you later.â
âHow long do I have to wait?â Kathy opened her eyes. The room was completely dark. She felt lonely because Joseph was not around.
âYou take a nap and Iâll be back.â
âReally?â
Kathy was very sleepy, but she had Joseph in her mind. She was half awake now.
âYes.â
After heard Josephâs words, Kathy was at ease. She then slid into sleep again. Her phone slipped from her hand, but she didnât hang up the phone.
Joseph listened to the gentle and faint sleep breath coming from his phone, and then his thin lips curled up slightly.
At this moment, Lincoln knocked on the door and entered.
âThe results from the hospital are out. The drugs Sammy Champs took before she died are indeed three types of pills we had developed. We have to await further results for more days.â
âIâm afraid NCHV Medical Company canât wait any longer.â Lincolnâs expression was gloomy.
âHave you checked the specific evidence provided by Peter?â
âI have already sent someone to retrieve the medical records and prescription records. They are all about Sammy before she died. However, there is also a medical report that has been temporarily detained. I canât check it.â
âGo and investigate these three types of pills in market now. The fake pills under our companyâs name, abound in market, shall be weeded out altogether.â
âI see. However, NCHV Medical Companyâs share price has slumped to the bottom. Our companyâs reputation also had been harmed. Though, I had taken measures to filter out the criticism on the internet, yet, Iâm afraid, our fame canât be restored.â
âHand over the evidence about Peter to the police. Let him be detained at least.â Josephâs voice was extremely cold.
âOf course I wonât let him go, but he must have the support of Hilton Group.â
âRecently, the Joseph family began to take actions.â Joseph frowned.
âI will also keep an eye on it. I donât want to see the NCHV Medical Company going to waste.â
Joseph was indifferent. The icy coldness in his eyes almost freeze people to death.
âJohnson will arrive tomorrow. He said that he will deal with this mess by himself.â Lincoln said.
As soon as Lincoln finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open and there emerged Johnsonâs tall figure.
Lincoln looked at Johnson in surprise, âDidnât you say you would arrive tomorrow?â
âI took an earlier flight.â
âJohnson, no one can save NCHV Medical Company this time.â Lincoln said with a deep voice.
This was not the first blow the NCHV Medical Company took, so, in Lincolnâs eyes, the NCHV Medical Company was already valueless.
Johnson narrowed his eyes. He was informed of the situation when he was on the plane.
Johnson took over NCHV Medical Company for a year. Although NCHV Medical Company was basically fragile, yet it was time-honored brand and it couldnât be crushed like this.
However, the problem it facing was an acid test.
Drug safety had always been a hard nut. Worse still, this matter was about one womanâs death, so it was even harder for them to investigate.
Furthermore, Peter obviously planned it for a long time, so the evidence he provided seemed to be flawless.
âNo one can tell. Lincoln, leave it to me.â
âBuddy, letâs just declare bankruptcy. I just donât get why we should purchase it...âLincoln said disgruntledly.
âJohnson, Iâll leave NCHV Medical Company to you. Lincoln, you should help Johnson.â Joseph instructed.
Lincoln still didnât agree with that, âYou two are experienced businessmen, why you didnât get it ...â
However, Joseph and Johnson seemed to have made the decision. They wouldnât give up. They would fight to the bitter end.
It was almost dawn when Joseph returned to Joseph Bay.
When he came into the room, by the light of morning sun, he saw Kathyâs sound and sweet face.
Josephâs cold expression softened as his thin lips curved.
He bent down and then dropped a kiss on Kathyâs lips. The kiss was gentle, but it sent a tremor to Kathy who is sensitive. She raised her hand, trying to brush it away consciously.
Josephâs eyes blinked. He then grabbed onto Kathyâs shoulder and acted it forcefully.
When Kathy opened her eyes, what met her eyes was a pair of lustful eyes.
âYou ...â
Before she could let out a word, she felt a kiss again.
After a long time, Kathy almost drank in those kisses. Then Joseph let go of her.
âWhat time is it?â Kathy frowned.
He came back at dawn.
âIâm going to take a shower. Go on your sleep.â
But as soon as he stood up, Kathy subconsciously grabbed his wrist.
She was almost awakened from her sleep now.

âAre you busy yourself with the matter of NCHV Medical Company?â
âYes.â
âIs it troublesome?â
âWe should prepare for the worst.â Joseph said in a deep voice.
Kathy trembled. Her eyes registered her worry now.
âWhat can I do?â She was an employee of NCHV Medical Company. She couldnât stand aloof as the company ran into mire.
âWhat you can do is to prepare for your postgraduate study?â
Kathy pursed her lips. She didnât say yes or no to it.
