Kathy couldnât convince her otherwise, but her friendâs concern made her feel better. After replying to her messages, she moved, and realized she felt quite tired. All she could do was lie there. Half an hour later, she didnât see Zofia, but instead got a call from her. âKathy, I canât get in!â
âWhat?â Kathy didnât understand.
âThe hospital says it wonât receive me...â
Kathy was flummoxed. Could it be that private? âWhy donât you head back then, Iâm really fine,â she said. She couldnât go out and get Zofia.
âNo. Is this hospital the Booth Groupâs? Iâll have my brother think of something.â That said, she gave Bertie a call.
Bertie, hearing the name of the hospital, paled. The hospital rarely opened to outsiders. In fact, ordinary people could not get in. âThatâs the Joseph Groupâs private hospital.â
Stubbornly Zofia said, âThen Iâll go find Joseph!â
Bertie looked at the building. Heâd just checked where Kathy had been admitted, and it wasnât here. Joseph must have had her transferred. And no one was allowed in... what did he mean to do...
Zofia still wanted a way in. âKathy said she was in an accident... she got surgery, it must be really serious, Iâm so worried...â
âIf you really want in, youâll have to wait till evening and see if the guards relax a little.â
âWhat? We have to sneak in? Iâll go find Joseph right now,â she insisted.
âJoseph is inside, how will you get to him?â asked Bertie coldly.
Zofia was stunned.
Bertie said, âIâll think of something.â
That entire day, Kathy was alone in her room. She hadnât brought anything, only had her phone. She was so bored. But Zofia couldnât get in and couldnât bring her any books. How could the guards be so strict? When Joseph came, she had to ask, âThey wonât allow visitors? Why am I here?â
Sheâd just checkedâthis was a private hospital. They wouldnât send a car crash victim hereâunless sheâd been transferred. She stared at Joseph uncertainly.
âI brought you here. For your own sake, you must recuperate in peace.â
Somewhat unhappily she said, âZofia canât get in...â How could her hospitalization be so completely controlled by him?
âYes,â he said, bringing her dinner. But Kathy had no appetite, and ate little. âDonât you feel any better?â he asked with concern.
She shook her head. It was too... sterile here. She felt she was in a cage, not a hospital. But Joseph stayed, so she said, âYou can leave, Iâll sleep soon.â
âIâll stay here until you are released.â Heâd brought his laptopâclearly he intended to work here. Seeing his stern countenance, her heart sank. No one could enter, and only Joseph was with her... it seemed strange...
âWhy did you have me transferred?â she asked. He wasnât a family member, he didnât have the authority.
âYou need to recuperate in peace.â
âI can do that at other hospitals. It must be expensive here...â Looking at the fancy room, she knew her savings would not be enough...
âItâs free,â he said.
Kathy stared. â... But the medication, at least, canât be cheap.â
âI opened this hospital. Everything here is free for you.â
Kathy kept staring. âI donât want to owe you anything.â
Joseph said fiercely, âKathy, you owe me a lot. If you really want to pay me back, give yourself to me.â
Kathy knew that look. She shut her mouth quick.
âKeep dreaming,â she said weakly. She didnât want to get involved with him again.
At that, he laughed lowly. âIf youâre tired, sleep. Iâll be here.â
But how could she? She felt uneasy. Opening her phone, she found a message from Zofia, and the two began chatting.
Zofia: Bertie and I are trying to figure out a way in.
Kathy: Joseph is in my room, I donât know why he had me transferred, itâs like he wants me completely isolated.

Zofia: I think so too, Iâm so worried... but I checked out the hotel, apparently itâs the best private hotel in the country, so you donât have to worry about that at least.
Kathy: But itâs so cold and sterile... and scary.
...
Laterï¼Zofia finally found a way in, and Bertie accompanied her. At the knock on the door, Joseph glared out. Seeing them, his expression darkened.
But Zofia pushed him aside, exclaiming, âKathy!â Finally seeing someone other than Joseph, Kathy felt much better.
Bertie entered too, stopping at Josephâs side. âTo transfer Kathy arbitrarily... the Booth family wonât let you get away with it,â he said. Jennifer was looking everywhere for Kathy, but Joseph had covered up the trail, and still Jennifer had no idea where her daughter was.
Joseph said, âHer connection with that family isnât deep anyway.â
âBut you canât just take over her identity!â
âWhat right have you to lecture me?â Joseph asked with a cold smile.
I...â Bertie paused, at a loss. He wasnât a Booth, and his relationship with Kathy wasnât close. âIâll tell the Booths all about this.â
âThen Iâll transfer Kathy somewhere youâll never find her!â Heâd not said it loudly, but in the hospital room, Kathy and Zofia heard.
Kathy paled, and looked at him in incomprehension. âJoseph, what do you mean?â
âI mean you shouldnât try to challenge my authority.â His aura right then was cold and commanding. Zofia had never seen him like that, and felt quite afraid. Joseph called a guard and said, âGet them out of here.â Seeing Zofia being taken away, Kathyâs gaze was mournful.
âI wonât go, I want to stay with Kathy! Joseph, you two arenât married anymore, what right have you to do this?â Zofia demanded. Sheâd feared him ever since a young age, but now she couldnât help but speak.
Joseph pursed his lips, looked at Kathy, and fisted his hands. âKathy, what do you think?â he asked.
