My Sweetheart

Chapter 174 Work with Me

Kathy dared not to say what she was thinking about; it was impossible for her to say out!

She closed her eyes and would not like to look at Joseph.

“Joseph, it is my fault. Please go to work.” she was afraid to suffer a lot tonight.

Joseph got on her and bit her earlobe so that Kathy could not leave him, “It’s too late. You made trouble…”

Looking at the girl sleeping in his arms, Joseph kissed the middle between her eyebrows and turned around to the study.

He dialed John’s number and asked, “Anything updated?”

“Joseph, it was Miss. Edith Wesley who let the waiters lock the two exits of the hotel.”

Joseph had a grim look and went on asking, “What did Conor say?”

John answered, “Three days later, Miss. Edith Wesley will go to Country B alone. Now Conor is going back.”

“Ok.”

In the next morning, Kathy would have a business trip and rushed to pack her luggage after getting up. Joseph came out of the bathroom and was annoyed at what she was doing.

He asked in an extreme low voice, “Where are you going?”

Kathy said, “I will travel on business, probably one week.” she was in a little unease when looking at Joseph to know how unhappy he was.

She seemed to forget to tell him before.

Joseph walked closely to her without putting on a shirt; his strong chest muscle was too fascinating. He said, “You are not well-behaved.”

Kathy kept watching his chest muscle, then got kind of blush.

She said, “I was just informed yesterday. Are you angry with me to tell you so late?” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Hum!”

Yes, Joseph got angry for sure.

He was always the last person who knew something about Kathy.

He pinched his middle between eyebrows and tried to control all of his anger.

“Do you think is it better to transfer you to work with me?” it sounded that he ordered her more than asking for her opinion.

His words shocked Kathy who believed herself good enough to stay in NCHV Medical Company. She could not imagine how she would be if working with Joseph.

Kathy did not resist this arrangement too much, but it was still different from that before they developed medicine together in the lab.

She had to warn him, “Now I am ok. Don’t do that.”

Joseph squinted and smiled mysteriously.

The breakfast was already prepared by Joseph. Now he got up one hour earlier, doing exercises and preparing breakfast, which he settled down into a routine. So, after Kathy getting up, she would right

have the breakfast.

This was the type of life she deeply loved.

However, Kathy was some of depressed with that she would not see Joseph in the following week.

She stared at the good-looking man with great attentiveness.

Joseph looked at her to ask, “You are going to the airport?”

Kathy shook her head to say, “I am going to the train station. It takes short time to the City B by high rail.”

When Joseph dropped off Kathy to the train station, Alexia was already there.

She saw Joseph coming to the waiting area inside the station with Kathy and was a little envious to say, “Oops. What a lovely couple!”

Kathy smiled and stopped Joseph, “Thank you so much for dropping me off here.”

“My dear, please stop talking that.” he said seriously. He disliked she talked with him so politely as a stranger.

Kathy felt embarrassed to have a tongue out. With glance at the passers-by and holding Joseph in arms, she stood on tiptoe and had a soft kiss on his lips.

It made Joseph happy so he pressed Kathy’s head hard to kiss her back.

Finally, he stopped at the moment of broadcast reminder to get on the train.

Kathy was too shy about this and said, “You are so…Many people here…”

Every time, the man kissed her until she was out of breath.

“Hum? More.” Joseph was ready to kiss her again, but Kathy pushed him.

She reminded him, “I have to go.”

Joseph let her go; she was reluctant to turn around and walked slowly.

Alexia pulled Kathy to the train; Kathy lowered her head with a little bit complicated feeling within her heart.

The more she told herself to be calm, the more she loved him.

Alexia winked at Kathy and said, “Look at you. How much you love him? You said you will not love him after getting married; now you break your promise.”

Kathy was kind of blush and said, “You knew it last night. It should be Edith Wesley with him. Right?”

“Yesterday I heard Joseph said Edith will marry the head of Country B. She would not come back to City N forever.”

“Hum?” Kathy was surprised about it. She did not know anything about what happened in the event yesterday. She supposed Joseph attended the event with Edith for introducing Edith as his girlfriend.

“I did not guess it but I heard Johnson talking about it. Earlier in her childhood, Edith had an engagement with head of Country B, Conor. Last night, Joseph also invited him to give an opportunity for both of them to meet and date. They will get married soon.”

Kathy was stunned; it was why Joseph took Edith to the event.

She blamed on him for it at last night. It was her mistake?

…

It was noon time when they arrived in the City B. Johnson asked someone to pick them up. The new medicine, MT Medicine, was the key product of this year from NCHV, which would be for sale this month. Alexia, as the manager of Sales Department, had to fulfill the company’s selling task.

They met several distributors in the afternoon and should have rest in the evening. However, just now they were informed to have a conference on medical research later; Kathy would attend it alone since Alexia had to prepare for the next day’s tasks.

The conference was held in an exhibition hall near their hotel. As soon as she sat down, she got a call from Joseph.

She answered it with smile, “I am in a meeting.”

Joseph’s voice was kept lower and tender, “What are you busy today?”

Kathy seemed to be reporting to her leader, “I met several potential customers with Alexia to introduce our new medicine. Now they should agree to purchase.”

Sitting on a chair adhered to the chairback, Joseph watched the starry night though the window and kept thinking about the sweet and graceful girl all over his mind.

He laughed, “You are doing well on the new position?”

Kathy said, “It is better than the previous routine job. Anyway, I plan to prepare for the postgraduates’ exam of next year. If too busy later, I would resign.”

“Feel free to tell me if you need help. Ok?”

“Ok. Joseph.”

Hanging off the call, Kathy found there was someone watching her in the near.

She frowned and saw Billy Hilton; at once she shifted her eyes from him.

Herbert got rid of Billy’s hand and said, “There is your Kathy.”

Billy did not say anything but walked to sit beside Kathy.

Kathy was unhappy about his move, “Mr. Hilton, your seat is on the first row.”

He said, “No problem. I don’t mind the seat.”
