Chapter 246: Chapter 246

“Well, even I couldn’t do anything about Joseph. The Joseph family is a family of mystery.”

“Can you tell me what you know about the Joseph family?” asked Kathy.

She wanted to know more about the man she married.

“I don’t know much, I got all my information from Lincoln. They started out in country C and practically monopolized the resources of that country. But they were very quiet about it and nobody knew about it. Lincoln told me that Joseph was fighting someone when he first saw Joseph.”

“He was in a fight?”

Kathy was taken aback, she couldn’t imagine the gentle and elegant Joseph would’ve experienced something like that.

Sue nodded, “Joseph was only 12 back then, the person he was fighting in the hotel was his biological father. Lincoln was in the hotel at that time and that was how they got to know each other. In our impression, Joseph was always cold and merciless. I only realized how much he had changed when I came back here and saw him again.”

Kathy grimaced, she didn’t dare to imagine the scene that Sue had just described to her. Why did Joseph do that?

Maybe because he was disappointed.

“I don’t know much, maybe I’ll go talk gossip with Lincoln again when I’m free. But maybe I don’t have the chance anymore.” Sue let out a long sigh.

She had a very charming expression on her face whenever she mentioned Lincoln.

But at the same time, she looked very dejected.

“Sue, I will accept everything if he tells me the truth. Only if he is willing to tell me the truth,” said Kathy in a soft voice.

Just when would he finally open up to her?

Suddenly, a group of more than ten men rushed into the shopping centre from outside, they looked like bodyguards. Sue looked down from the top floor, she was obviously flustered.

Those men were people working under her grandfather, what business would they possibly have here?

“Kathy, let’s go that way.” Sue pulled Kathy and started running away.

Kathy looked behind and the men were chasing after them, she was shocked.

She followed Sue and ran through the top floor, there was another shopping centre on the opposite of the building.

But they couldn’t make it in time.

The bodyguards were swift, Sue and Kathy were surrounded on the attic in no time.

“Miss, the master orders you to return immediately.”

Sue bit down hard on her lips, she was still looking for a way to escape.

But the only thing she could do right now was to jump off the building.

And she didn’t have the guts.

“Sue, who are these people?” asked Kathy worriedly.

“They are my grandfather’s men, the person who holds the power in the Fletcher family. Quick, contact Lincoln for me.”

She knew that there was no way that she could escape.

Kathy quickly pulled out her phone seeing Sue being taken away, but she then realized that she didn’t have Lincoln’s number.

She needed to contact Joseph first.

Kathy’s hand trembled, they had not talked for a week.

But Sue’s safety was in question, she shouldn’t hesitate.

The call went through, and Kathy could hear Joseph’s voice.

“Mrs. Joseph.” He sounded extremely tired.

Kathy felt her heart throbbed.

She knew that Joseph was a hard worker and he probably worked himself to death.

She wondered if he rested properly without her being by his side.

“I...I need to ask you something.”

“Say it.” He had expected this, Kathy wouldn’t take the initiative to call him without a reason.

“I need Mr. Fletcher’s contact, Sue is taken away.”

Joseph frowned, “I’ll let him know about this.”

“Alright.”

“Anything else?” asked Joseph.

“No.”

“Are you outside?” asked Joseph as he heard loud noises.

“Yeah.”

“I’ll be back next week.”

“Okay.”

Joseph frowned again, did Kathy really have nothing to say to him?

“I’m going to hang up.” It was getting really awkward and Kathy quickly hung up the call.

...

At the airport.

There was a luxurious private plane parked yonder, the symbol of the Fletcher’s family on the plane was eye-catching.

Sue struggled along the way as her shoulders were held on tightly.

“Let go of me, I will walk on my own! Don’t touch me!”

But the bodyguards turned a deaf ear. Sue was about to be brought onto the plane when she suddenly raised her leg as they were walking up the stairs and kicked the bodyguard as hard as she could. The bodyguard rolled off the stairs.

She immediately ran off the moment the bodyguard let go of her.

The other bodyguards quickly chase after her.

As Sue ran, she could see Lincoln from far away.

Tears started welling up in her eyes and she used up all her might to run towards him.

Lincoln glanced at the bodyguards who were about to catch up to them, he then hugged Sue tightly in his arms.

“I thought you don’t care about me anymore.” Sue couldn’t help it, her tears started rolling down her cheeks.

Lincoln smiled and he knocked the back of her head lightly, “I don’t have the heart to do that.”

He glared at the bodyguards surrounding them after saying that, his expression darkened.

“Let’s go back together, okay?” he asked.

“Grandfather had arranged a marriage for me. Is it still possible for us to be together if I go back?” Sue dropped her gaze, she looked tremendously dejected.

“I won’t let you get married to anyone else but me, you can only marry me.”

“You never proposed to me, I won’t say yes right now,” said Sue angrily.

Lincoln rubbed her nose lovingly, “I know, I will arrange it immediately.”

“Young master, the master ordered Miss Sue to go back,” said the bodyguard, he was placed in a difficult position.

“I won’t allow her to return alone.”

“But...”

“I haven’t meet grandfather in a while, he must miss me dearly,” Lincoln snickered.

This reminded Sue of something, she quickly pulled Lincoln’s hand and said, “Maybe it’s better if I return alone. Lincoln, you should stay here.”

Everything would be unpredictable if they went to the Fletcher’s.

At least Lincoln would still have his freedom at City N.

“You think I’ll listen to you?” said Lincoln coldly as he squinted his eyes.

He held her hand and walked into the plane with her.

The bodyguards reported to the Fletcher’s and the plane took off.

...

At night, Kathy was still worried about Sue. She decided to call Sue.

Nobody answered the phone. Sue only managed to call her back at midnight.

“Kathy, don’t worry. I’m fine.”

“Where are you?”

“I’m currently at BV City.”

“It’s most important that you are fine now.”

“Lincoln accompanied me home, but we couldn’t see each other. It’s not that fine really.” Sue walked out to the balcony, she understood very well what her grandfather was planning to do.

She couldn’t go anywhere, her movement was restricted.

Lincoln was treated the same way.

“Is there anything that I can help with?” asked Kathy sincerely.

“Thank you, Kathy. I should’ve come home earlier, I was having wild hopes.”

Her life belonged to the Fletcher family and that was why she never disobeyed their orders.

But now, she wanted to rebel.

It wasn’t easy to fall in love with someone, she was like a moth to a flame.

“I’m really jealous of you and Joseph. Kathy, being together with someone I love, was something that never ever crossed my mind.”

Kathy grasped on to her phone, she could clearly feel how disheartened Sue was.

Kathy walked out to the balcony after hanging up the call. Their apartment that Joseph bought was on the top floor, the view was stunning and she could see the whole city.

But she was alone. She didn’t feel anything even when looking at the beautiful view in front of her.

What Sue just said kept repeating in her head, someone you loved...

Her peculiar relationship with Joseph was never like that, but everyone thought of them as the loving and harmonious couple.

Even she sometimes felt that way, but it was just an illusion...
