My Sweetheart

Chapter 551 He Clung to Her

Hearing Veronica talk about Kathy, Joseph screwed up his face.

"I'm gonna stay with you tonight."

"Did you quarrel with Kathy?" Veronica asked curiously, her eyebrows raised.

Joseph did not answer. He pushed her in and changed the subject. "I'll cook for you. You are poorly skinny."

Veronica pouted and looked at her brother worriedly.

'Why Joseph is haggard?'

After dinner, Joseph and Quinn were having a video conference.

Veronica sobbed when she heard Quinn's voice.

Standing at the door of the study, she covered her mouth in case that they would hear her sobbing.

Oh, she missed Quinn so badly and wanted to see him.

It wasn't until the conference ended that Veronica burst into tears.

She had been trapped by Reece for wholly seven days. Each day was a torment for her.

Joseph walked over and patted Veronica's shoulder to comfort her.

"Veronica, everything will be better. I'm always here for you." He said in a low voice.

Veronica nodded, had a stronger desire to see Quinn. It was so hard for her to get a hold of this burning desire.

"Joseph, don't go. I need you these days." Veronica looked at him with tearful eyes.

"I will stay here with you."

After getting Veronica to sleep, Joseph left his sister's bedroom and returned to his study. He stood in front of the French window. His head was full of Kathy who was so delicate.

He took out a cigarette and lit it, held it between his fingers. However, he missed Kathy more greatly.

After a while, he stubbed out the cigarette and left for Joseph Bay.

As the car drove into the residential area, he saw a familiar person coming out from Joseph Bay.

She wore a pure white slim dress with long hair down to her shoulders. He couldn't see her face clearly, but the silhouette was very familiar. She was obviously the one he missed these days.

He tightened his grip on the steering wheel. His eyes were burning with desire.

Kathy getting into a taxi, he stepped on the accelerator and followed the taxi at a proper distance.

Half an hour later, the taxi stopped at the gate of University F. Joseph's gaze landed on that thin figure. After she was out of his sight, he drove back to Joseph Bay.

He turned on the light, and saw the three dishes and one soup on the dining table.

Oh, they were cooked by Kathy because they didn't look delicious.

Probably because they had been on the table for a long time, the smell faded.

There were two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks beside them. Joseph guessed that the dinner was for him.

However, why didn't she invite him to eat?

Joseph pursed his thin lips as he sat down and picked up the chopsticks.

He tasted every dish. Although they were cold, he enjoyed them all and ate all.

Closing his eyes, he felt gloomy.

...

A week later, Mrs. Marshall's funeral was held on a cemetery in West Suburban.

Kathy went back to the Booth's, would go with Jennifer to the funeral.

Jennifer noticed her sallow face at first glance.

"Where's Joseph? Why didn't he come with you?" Jennifer asked in surprise.

Hearing this, Kathy froze, pursed her lips, and got lost in words.

"Kathy, tell me, what happened?" Jennifer stopped and felt sorry for her.

She had found that Kathy acted a little unusual.

"Nothing. Joseph is too busy recently. I haven't contacted him long." Kathy answered softly.

Yes, she hadn't even met Joseph this week and never called him.

Kathy supposed that he was by Zofia's side.

She didn't want to go there for him because she thought she would disturb them.

Thinking of this, Kathy felt more sorrowful and bitter.

"Oh, Joseph is always busy. But he didn't use to be this way. You fall out with him?"

Kathy looked down and shook her head.

"Mom, let's go."

Jennifer was even more worried. Well, it was their business. She couldn't get involved in this matter.

On the cemetery...

Jennifer and Kathy arrived on time. Kathy just knew Mrs. Marshall. But Mrs. Marshall was Jennifer's friend. Jennifer's eyes became red.

Kathy stood behind Jennifer and looked up. She saw a familiar man.

He was by Zofia's side.

He wore black clothes and trousers. He had a very powerful vibe and was unapproachable.

Suddenly, he looked up and met her eyes.

Kathy blinked and sneered.

She looked away, supported her mother and quietly stood in front of Mrs. Marshall's tombstone.

She turned around, didn't know that Bertie was behind her and collided with him, almost got into his arms.

Bertie gently helped her get balance. Kathy stepped back to keep distance with him.

"Mrs. Hilton, Kathy, thank you for coming here." Bertie said in a good manner.

"Bertie, I'm sorry for your loss." Jennifer said in a deep voice.

Bertie slowly nodded. He tried to hide his sorrow but Jennifer could still tell he was sad.

Soon, Jennifer looked at Joseph, who was not far away, and then looked at Kathy beside her, sighed.

"Do you want to talk to Joseph?" It really hurt Jennifer because Kathy was very gloomy and down.

Kathy thought for a moment, set her mouth in a grim line, didn't answer Jennifer. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Kathy froze. Joseph was walking towards her.

Jennifer had got on car. Joseph was approaching. Kathy was a little angry and turned around

She really ... couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

He stayed by Zofia's side because Mrs. Marshall passed away?

Why didn't he even give her an explanation?

What exactly happened between them?

Kathy was sullen because they were so intimate.

"Come back with me later." Joseph said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Kathy looked up and smiled coldly. "No, I think Mr Joseph should go back with Miss Marshall."

"Kathy." Joseph frowned.

"Enough!" Kathy turned to leave.

Facing Joseph, she was afraid that she would give in to him.

She didn't like being this.

Joseph grabbed her wrist. She lost balance and was in his arms.

The familiar smell infatuated her.

She really missed him.

However, she also hated him.

"Kathy, what did you call me?" Joseph asked coldly.

He stared at Kathy, was very terrific.

Kathy, looked at him, didn't feel scared. She saw her little figure in his eyes.

She answered sarcastically, "Mr Joseph."

"Kathy, I know you're angry with me." Joseph said with almost flat assurance.

"No, I don't." She jerked him forcibly away.

Joseph didn't even step back but clung to her.
