Joseph was sitting on the sofa when his grandfather came to him.
âWho have you chosen for the executive president position?â Matthew asked with a deadpan face.
âQuinn Davis.â
Matthew was startled when he heard that.
It was not a news that Quinn was known to be together with Veronica.
He initially thought that Joseph had selected an outsider, but to his surprise that candidate was none other than Quinn.
âI clearly recall that he is the descendant of the Davis family, and he needs to handle some of the business under the Davis family name.â
Matthew was implying that Quinn wouldnât have time to take on another arduous position.
âThe heir of the Davis family wouldnât be Quinn, so it wonât be a problem to hand over the Josephâs Group under his leadership.â Joseph explained calmly.
If that candidate was Quinn, Matthew wouldnât have a lot to complain about.
The only thing left for him to validate was Quinnâs capability.
After all, he was just a psychological doctor prior to this, and despite holding some education in the business field, he didnât have much practical experience.
âJoseph, even if that is the case, you still have to be the one overseeing things in the Josephâs Group.â Matthewâs tone was still seething with mild anger.
âI never said that I wonât oversee things in any way. Itâs just that I donât plan to hold on to the presidentâs position for too long.â
When Quinn finally cemented his position as the executive president in the near future, Joseph planned to transfer all of his power to him.
At that moment, Matthew finally understood Josephâs plan.
âQuinn is still not part of the Joseph family yet!â Matthew howled angrily.
âGrandpa, his marriage with Veronica is as good as done. He is already part of the Joseph family, like it or not.â
Matthew still had a grumpy expression on his face. From his point of view, there couldnât be another person sitting atop the Josephâs Group other than Joseph himself.
âYou plan to throw away every ounce of power you are enjoying now, am I wrong?â Matthewâs gaze slowly seeped with disappointment.
Joseph pursed his lips, and his dark gaze slowly narrowed, âI have promised you that I will take over the Josephâs Group, and now I have honoured that promise. Grandpa, everything regarding the Josephâs Group is not your concern anymore.â
Josephâs voice was icy cold.
âWhat if I tell you that I will never agree to your decisions! I wonât agree to Quinn assuming your position! The only one who can sit on that chair is you alone!â Matthew knocked his walking stick on the ground hard while he sounded uncompromising.
Joseph didnât even flinch, âGrandpa, if you regret handing over the Josephâs Group to me, I will cease to participate in all of your operations from now on.â
After saying that, he left without even looking back.
Finally, Matthewâs rage boiled over. He knew very well of Josephâs stubbornness, but in all of the Joseph family, only he was capable enough to take over the Josephâs Group!
However, Joseph never set his heart on this place at all!
How could Matthew not be angered?
If Joseph handed over the presidentâs position to Quinn, he would only remain a director, and his job was only to attend important meetings in the company. The real operation of the Josephâs Group would be completely controlled by Quinn.
Matthew had to try his best to calm himself down, and his mind was replaying Josephâs determined words non-stop.
This rascal dared to threaten him!
He only had himself to blame for raising such a grandson!
Joseph was a man of his words, and in the coming week, he never came to the Josephâs Group anymore, and he didnât care about the matters of the company anymore. Besides tending to some patients on Monday as usual, all he ever did was accompanying Kathy at the Josephâs Bay. Sometimes, he would cook some nutritious food for her to revitalize her health.
Kathy looked at the man by her side and wondered about Josephâs newfound leisure time... She had a hard to getting used to his continued presence.
âWouldnât Mr Matthew be angry with you for not going to work at the Josephâs Group?â Kathy asked worriedly.
âHe is.â Joseph answered without any expression.
Veronica had called him multiple times and let him be known that his grandpa had been jumping up and down with fury.
âThen, you...â Kathy was knitting her brows as if in a dilemma.
âI need grandpa to stop overseeing the Josephâs Group. If he canât do that, it would be best in his interest if he had never handed over the Josephâs Group to me in the first place.â Josephâs tone was as calm as a millpond.
Kathy wasnât very well-versed with the matters in the business field, but she at least could still guess Josephâs train of thoughts.
He had inherited the Josephâs Group, but he wasnât planning to be the one in control.
However, his intention was in the exact opposite direction compared to Matthewâs wishes.
âRecently, I can see that the Josephâs Group is doing not too well. The share prices have been dropping like crazy.â Kathy commented nonchalantly.
Due to her connection to Joseph, she started to pay attention to any news centred around the Josephâs Group.
In recent times, the turbulence plaguing the Josephâs Group had become a sensational news in the business industry. Despite that, as the president, Joseph had been hanging around at home looking like he was without a care in the world.
Kathy started to feel worried for him.
âThe share price will stop plummeting after some time, and with the long history and stability of the Josephâs Group, it wonât just go kaput like that. I want to grab this chance to purge some factions harbouring ill-intentions within the ranks of the company.â
Joseph never went wrong with every step that he took.
Kathy watched this man who was always full of confidence, and slowly a sense of admiration formed beneath her eyes.
She was able to relax after hearing Josephâs vows.
She continued to study, and Joseph would chip in from time to time to increase some knowledge for her. Kathy was able to enjoy some calm and peaceful days of late.
While lying in Josephâs embrace, Kathy let out a yawn. It was afternoon, and the sleeping bug was getting to her.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, a ringing sound broke the silence and broke through her sleepiness. It was Josephâs phone.
Joseph eyed his phone and then he answered the call.
âDr Joseph, Ella has vomited this morning. Can you make a visit here as soon as possible?â A nurseâs voice came through the speaker and it was tinged with anxiety.
Joseph gave a vague response before hanging up the phone.
Kathy had overheard that conversation, and she took the initiative to fetch Josephâs coat.
âAre you going to go with me, hmm?â
âNo thanks. When I was in the hospital last time, your fans almost destroyed me.â Kathy recalled the scene from last time, and the fansâ incessant hacking and comments were still vivid in her mind.
Upon hearing that, Joseph couldnât help but frown. He hooked his arms around Kathyâs waist and ventured, âYou have me by your side. I am sure nobody would be brave enough to bully you.â
Kathy knew that, but she wasnât too interested to meet with Ella.
As if seeing through her thoughts, Joseph stopped persuading her.
After planting a kiss on her forehead, he said gently, âWait for me to come home tonight and I will make dinner for you.â
âAlright, I will go buy the raw food first.â
Half an hour later, Joseph arrived at the hospital. Ella had been vomiting to a very serious extend, and Joseph instructed for the nurses to give her some injection before taking her blood sample. He could only wait for the outcome.
Ella was in immense discomfort and her face was deathly pale.
âDr Joseph, can you stay here and accompany me...â Ella stared at Joseph with a longing in her eyes.
My Sweetheart ï¤Chapter 508 Dissolve the Club without Any Hesitation Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad ï¤Chapter 488 A New beginning It'll Come Naturally âI will be here for a few hours. What have you eaten in the past two days?â Joseph asked patiently.
âI have... eaten some beef.â Ellaâs voice became tinier at this point.
She recalled Joseph reminder about the food she had to avoid at all cost, but when she went out to take a stroll, she saw someone eating beef skewers. It enticed her appetite which prompted her to ask for her brother to buy her some of that so that she could satisfy her cravings.
She wouldnât predict her current outcome full of discomfort.
Josephâs expression darkened, âYou are getting a taste of your own medicine.â
Ella pursed her lips with indignation, âYes, you are right about that.â
She knew very well that Joseph would never fancy her, yet she couldnât control her feelings towards him. She was just inflicting more pain on herself.
Joseph frowned with a certain resignation, and after prescribing some medicine, Ellaâs condition finally stabilized. He then returned to his office.
There were some presents scattered on his sofa, and with a deadpan face, a nurse came in and explained, âDr Joseph, these are all given by your fans. Your fans were too insistent, nobody were able to stop them.â
It was forbidden for anyone to receive gifts in the hospital, yet his fans exhausted all means just to make sure their presents appeared at the entrance. They didnât state any name on the gifts, so the staff could only handle those presents like this.
âUnwrap them, categorize them and donate them to the orphanage.â Joseph instructed the nurse.
âRoger.â
