My Sweetheart

Chapter 176 Why You Like Her

Back in the office, Peter came up to report to Billy about this week.

"Have you signed the contract with NCHV Medical?" Billy asked.

Peter nodded, "The prospects for this new drug of MT Medicine are good, and it will definitely bring considerable benefits to BT Group in the future."

"That was developed by NCHV Medical, so just because Kathy came to talk, you signed it?"

Billy's tone was a little cold.

Peter's expression was indifferent, "It has nothing to do with Kathy."

"Really? What if I disagree?" Billy touched his chin, with a playful smile in his eyes.

"You are the president, naturally you are the one to make decisions." Peter lowered his head.

Billy suddenly kicked the chair and walked over, standing in front of Peter, looking at his emotionless face, and said jokingly, "Don't be dazzled by beauty, since you have already signed it, then it is a done deal. However, if something goes wrong, you have to take responsibility."

…

The two of them found a hot pot restaurant for lunch at noon, Alexia couldn't help but ask, "Does Billy like you?"

As a third person, she could see clearly that the way Billy looked at Kathy, was so different.

Kathy couldn't help but choke, "He has a fiance."

"Herbert married him to save the family. I guess Billy would not like that bitch." Alexia analyzed.

"Even if he likes me, I am already married." Kathy said calmly.

She felt that Billy was interested in her, but she subconsciously resisted.

"That's true, but Kathy, your love luck this year is really overwhelming. Look, Joseph and Billy both like you, but in the past three years, you didn't even have a person who had an eye on you, and you have been on so many blind dates without finding the right person."

The corners of Kathy's mouth twitched… Billy, this is rotten luck, wasn’t it?

But Joseph was really the biggest accident in her 25-year life.

"Joseph won't like me, so it's not my love luck." Kathy's face looked disappointed after remembering something.

Although they were getting along like ordinary couples now, they were different.

"It's you, have you established a proper relationship with Johnson yet?" Kathy asked with concern.

Before Johnson had taken Alexia to the dinner party, but this time, the woman next to Johnson was finally not any supermodel star, did that mean that he felt different with Alexia?

"I guess so, but I haven't thought about the future. I think, for now I will just live in the present." Alexia said in a low voice.

Now she was desperate for love, and she hoped Johnson could give her the same response.

However, after being with him, there always seemed to be more disappointing times.

…

Joseph’s Group.

Edith was handing over work these days. She was supposed to be involved in drug research and development before, but because she was leaving City B, she naturally couldn't participate.

She knocked on the door, and walked into the president's office.

"Mr Joseph, this is the report of the investigation of new drugs. You can hand it over to the next colleague who will take my place." Jennifer handed over the file.

Joseph nodded, leaning on the back of his chair, his eyes looking towards Edith were somewhat alienated.

"I'm going to Country B tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't have any chance to come back later."

Edith said in a low voice, she couldn’t hide the bitterness in her tone.

"Conor is a good person, and the family power is enough to protect you for a lifetime, Zain will no longer dare to attack you." Joseph said quietly.

"That is true, so, I guess I should thank you?" Edith pursed her lips mockingly.

She was really sad that Joseph really wanted to do this. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"You are my sister, you don't need to say thank you. Grandpa is very happy to know about this. Please go back and see Grandpa before you leave. He really misses you."

Edith pursed her lips and nodded, "Then I will go this afternoon, shall we go back together?"

Joseph looked at the schedule, but did not refuse.

Walking out of Joseph's Group together, Edith also packed up her belongings.

The last time Edith came back to the house was five years ago. At that time, she hadn't studied abroad, and her relationship with Joseph… wasn’t so estranged.

Matthew was practicing calligraphy in the study, and he was very happy to know that Edith was back.

"Grandpa." Walking into the study room, Edith looked at Matthew's book and couldn't help but admire, "Grandpa's writing is getting more and more powerful."

"My little girl will always coax me. I am old and his pen is not as good as he used to be." Matthew put down his brush and sat down on the sofa with a cane.

Edith smiled, "Of course, you are as good as you can only be, why don’t you give me this writing. I don't know when I will come back to see you again."

"If you like it, of course I won't be stingy. But if you are gonna get married, I will be a little bit reluctant." Matthew touched his beard, and his gaze fell on Joseph who was standing by.

Edith's marriage was suddenly brought up, and even his old man was kept in the dark.

"Grandpa, I will definitely come back to see you when I have time, but I don't know if Joseph will allow me or not." Edith glanced at Joseph, her tone aggrieved.

"If you want to come back, you can always come back, Country B is not far away, a few hours on the plane." Joseph said quietly.

"I'm just afraid you won't want to see me after I get married."

"What are you talking about! You two grew up together, Joseph is most concerned about you, I also checked, the man Conor is not bad, his background and family are worthy of you, I agree to this marriage "Matthew said heartily.

Edith looked down, the smile on her lips was very weak, "Grandpa, Joseph, thank you for taking care of me over the past ten years. I can't thank you enough."

With that, her eyes turned red.

"Don't cry. You know if you cry I will always panic, Joseph, please comfort this kid for me."

Matthew stood up, looked at Joseph, and exhorted, "Send Edith to the airport tomorrow."

"I will, Grandpa."

There were only two people left in the study. Edith sniffed and met Joseph’s indifferent eyes.

"Joseph, have you really seen me as your younger sister for so many years?" Edith's tone couldn't hide her disappointment.

Joseph sat down opposite to her, with his long legs folded, and a cold and terrifying aura emerged.

In the past few years, his aura has become more and more like his grandfathers, high above others, with no one to compare.

The admiration in Edith's eyes gradually rose. She had liked him for so many years, but he had always pushed her to another man.

She worked hard for so many years just to be able to stand beside him.

For Joseph, she studied endlessly, just to get the same school and into the same major as him, to be able to match him well enough.

But as for him, he married such an ordinary woman, how could she just let it go!

"Well, you are just my sister." Joseph's face was calm.

"Then... why her?" Edith asked, her voice trembling, "What is it that makes her better than me. Why do you like her, why did you marry her..."

After she finished her questions, tears rolled out of Edith's eyes.

She only lost her temper in front of Joseph.
