Chapter 363: Chapter 363

Kathy had to go back to campus at night. Seeing that it was almost time to go, she picked up her purse.

“If you need anything, call the nurse.” She told him yet again.

Joseph hummed in response without looking up.

Seeing his indifferent attitude made her somewhat disappointed.

However, Kathy wasn’t able to leave at all.

The doorknob was not budging at all.

She frowned and turned around.

Joseph pressed the call bell, but even after waiting for a while, no one came.

Even the cellphones had no signals.

“Is anyone out there? Open the door!”

There were bodyguards stationed outside, but there was no response this time.

Kathy’s face turned pale. She turned to look at Joseph in panic, “Hurry, ask someone to come over.”

“Since we are trapped, just stay here.”

“...”

“You didn’t plan this, right?” Kathy glared at him.

“How despicable do you think I am?” Joseph’s tone turned a little cold.

Kathy pursed her lips. Of course, she didn’t think that.

She was just too angry and anxious and the words slipped out.

She turned back at him, “Aren’t you worried? We are trapped.”

“I already have to stay here in the hospital.”

Indeed, this incident had no effect on Joseph.

“I have to go back to school.” Kathy said solemnly.

“Just skip research and development tomorrow.”

“I have other things too.” Kathy said avoiding his gaze.

The thought of staying in this room with Joseph over-night... was just... too much.

No, Absolutely no!

As he looked Kathy looking at him with defiance, his deep eyes darkened with gloom.

“Joseph, can you get the door opened or not?” Kathy looked at him expectantly.

“This is obviously a set-up, can’t you see?” Joseph frowned.

His bodyguards were no longer there, the cellphone signals were lost, and even the call bell didn’t solicit a response.

Obviously, someone did this on purpose.

But Joseph, with the personality he had, how could he let himself be manipulated like this.

“I know! So, think of a way out.”

“Hey! Come over here. Someone will come and get us out when it’s time.”

Kathy had no words.

This was not the answer she wanted to hear!

Giving him an angry look, she continued to knock on the door. But there was no response from outside.

The balconies were all sealed already, so she had no other way of getting out.

Joseph on the other hand, continued to read his documents calmly.

Seeing Kathy pacing the room, clearly irritated, a smile flashed across Joseph’s face, “Come here beside me.”

“I want to leave, Joseph!”

“You can leave tomorrow.”

“Why tomorrow?” Kathy looked at him.

“Can’t leave tonight.”

“...”

Kathy just couldn’t believe him.

“You... deliberately...”

“If I want to keep you by my side, I don’t need to be so mean. I know you can’t resist me, Kathy!” Joseph suddenly hooked his hand into her arm and pulled her into his embrace.

Kathy fell on him, her heart beating wildly as she stared at him without blinking.

His handsome face so close to her was mesmerizing.

“I...”

“Julian’s people are outside right now. the door will not be opened until tomorrow morning.” Joseph said seriously.

“What does he want to do?” Kathy was frightened.

What was it that Joseph already knew, but didn’t handle in advance?

Or did he want to use it to his advantage?

“I will know tomorrow. I can’t really go out right now!”

Kathy fell silent. Joseph didn’t seem to be lying, nor did he need to lie.

“What is tomorrow?”

“The shareholder’s meeting that was next Monday is now going to be held tomorrow. After it is finished, only then you can leave.” Joseph’s tone was flat and quiet.

But Kathy realized something.

“Aren’t you going to the shareholder’s meeting?”

“I can’t go.”

“Julian wants to trap you? If he isn’t letting you attend the meeting, does he want to seize power?” Kathy analyzed.

“You are not stupid!”

“Of course, but what are you going to do?”

“Enjoy the show.”

“So, you just watched him trap you here even though you knew?”

Joseph didn’t answer, he was more interested in seeing the submission in her eyes.

So, she was really going to stay the night...

There was only one bed...

However, there was a sofa.

“I’ll sleep on the sofa.”

Although, Kathy wanted to push Joseph away, he pulled her onto the bed rather forcefully, and suddenly they were stuck close together.

With swift hands, Joseph turned off the light.

The air in the room became a little magical and fragrant.

Kathy could clearly hear her wildly beating heart.

“Joseph...”

“Good night, Mrs. Joseph.” His alluringly deep voice fell into her ears, bewitching her.

The title was familiar, although it had ceased to exist a long time ago.

In little while, Joseph’s breathing fell into a smooth rhythm as he seemed to have fallen asleep.

However, Kathy couldn’t sleep at all; with Joseph besides her, she couldn’t even dare to close her eyes.

Two people who had an intimate relationship in the past were now sleeping again in the same bed.

Kathy never admitted it but in reality, she depended on Joseph even more than before.

She still relied on him.

This feeling had taken root in her heart a long time ago.

She raised her eyes to look at him. Even in the dark she could clearly see his handsome profile.

She closed her eyes, but she couldn’t block out the feeling of being surrounded by his aura. His noble and powerful aura, that made her feel distanced.

But right now, he was besides her.

Tossing and turning, she couldn’t fall asleep for a long time. Suddenly, a deep voice whispered into her ear.

“Don’t move!” His breathe was hot.

Listening to him, his warm breath tickling her ear, his heartbeat went wild.

“You are still awake?” She asked on a low voice.

“You are moving around so much, how can I sleep?” If only Kathy turned around right then, she could have seen how dangerous his eyes were.

“Then don’t hold me.” Kathy moved away a little bit.

Moving away from him, she didn’t notice that she was already on the edge of the bed. Seeing that she was about to fall off the bed Joseph hugged her tightly, bringing her close to him.

“Kathy!” His tone was a little angry.

Sensing his intense emotions Kathy didn’t dare to move again.

At this time... she really couldn’t afford to provoke him.

Kathy closed her eyes, forcing herself to fall asleep...

Her body gradually relaxed, she leaned back in Joseph’s arms. Joseph’s breathing also became heavier...

When Kathy woke up the next day, it was already a little late.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she immediately checked the time.

It was nine o’clock!

Joseph was already awake, lying on the bed with his long arms hugging her lovingly.

Kathy looked down and was relieved to see that her clothes were still on her body.

When she turned her head, she was met with Joseph’s penetrating gaze.

“You... you are up already?”

“Yeah, did you sleep well last night?” He asked.

“Hmm.” Kathy hummed in response, frowning. Last night, she did end up sleeping fine.

Although she couldn’t sleep at first, gradually she became relaxed.

It seemed like she had the baest night’s sleep since she divorced Joseph.
