Kathy plunged into the couch upon returning to the Joseph Bay as she did not have a good rest due to
what happened recently. Sadly the housemaids did not come today and there was no dinner.
Joseph had been busy the whole day too and an indulgent look permeated him when he saw her
exhausted and almost asleep look. He scooped her soft body up and lowered his head. He kissed her
eye and whispered. “What do you want to eat tonight?”
Kathy’s eyes gleamed and she asked, “Are you going to make dinner?” She had not tasted his cooking
for a long time.
“Yes. What do you want to eat?” Joseph asked patiently. Kathy pondered and she gave up on the
thought to eat home-cooked meal when she thought that he must be tired too. “Noodle is fine.” She
blinked.
“Alright. Stay still.” Kathy nodded. She was defeated by the urge to sleep and she dozed off on the
couch not long after that. She felt her body hanging in the air presently and shuddered. She then
opened her heavy-lidded eyes and met Joseph’s handsome face. She let out a gasp and then noticed
he had carried her into the bedroom.
“You’ve slept enough?” He asked with his eyes flamed.
Kathy shook her head. She wanted to sleep more than she wanted to eat. “Then sleep a little longer.”
Joseph climbed up the bed following that and he hugged her in his arms. His incessant kisses landed
on her neck, ears, nose and lips the moment she closed her eyes again. He ran his lips along the line
of her lips and moved down.
Kathy moaned and she pressed his chest subconsciously. Her body curled up yet she could not dodge
his attack. He was too familiar with her body and he had softened her body that easily. She could only
get bullied by him.
“How could you do this…” Kathy’s voice softened and she opened her eyes after putting her arms
around his neck. She thought she could have a nice sleep.
“I miss you, Mrs.Joseph.” He rumbled. He was always out of control whenever he touched her body
and he craved to occupy her. Kathy could certainly not resist as they had not shown intimacy towards
each other for a very long time and she actually missed him too.
…
They only had their dinner when it was ten at night and the noodles had already gone cold. Joseph was
making another two bowls of noodles and Kathy’s mind gradually went blank when she watched him
bustling in the kitchen through the glass window.
The superior president who used to be elegant and aloof was now washing his hands and making broth
for her. She had no idea how long would this moment last. “Joseph , how could your cooking skill be
that excellent? You seem to be brilliant in whatever you do.” Kathy could not help but lavish him.
“If I can’t achieve excellence, I would be caught up by others. You know?” He answered ambiguously.
He had grown up in a competitive environment since young and he could only stand out from the
crowds when he achieved first place in everything he did, or else, he would become insignificant and
that was not he wanted.
“I know, that’s why I’m just an ordinary person.” She pouted.
Joseph curved his thin lips and raised her face. “You don’t have to be like me.”
“But I do really hope to be able to stand beside you one day.” A light shot out of Kathy’s eyes. What she
wanted was not only this moment.
“Mrs.Joseph, the wife I need do not have to be great, as I’m already great enough and you need only
be the ladykin behind my back.” He put down the chopsticks and his expression went stern.
“But…”
“There’s no ‘but’. My identity doesn’t matter, what matter is the fact that you’re my wife.” Kathy was
startled and colour flared onto her cheeks. She suddenly stood up, leant forward and kissed Joseph
who was opposite to her on his cheek. Her head was clasped the moment she wanted to retreat and he
kissed her back more strongly. Her face flushed as his kiss was too alluring.
“Mrs.Joseph, you’re lighting up fire.” Joseph rumbled and his voice turned fierce.
Kathy dodged his gaze and retorted. “You’re the one who light up fire, yet the fire’s not completely lit up
yet!” She sat down and ignored him. She was already exhausted enough when he messed her up just
now and she refused to let him did it again. Yet Joseph who had unbelievable strength pressed her
down once again after they went back to the bedroom after finishing their dinner, and she could only
look at him and could not cry tears.
“Are you a beast?” Kathy moaned.
“I am. But only to you…”
…
It was weekend the next day and Kathy only woke up at around noon after a languid sleep. Joseph had
been long disappeared from the bed. He was looking at the screen of the laptop in the living room
when she got out after finishing cleaning up. He was wearing white casual clothes and he looked gentle
and handsome instead of strict and aloof like he used to be.
“Come here.” He looked up when he saw her standing beside the door. His expression turned grim
when he saw her barefoot and he rushed and carried her up almost immediately. He sought for her
slippers and crouched to help her put them on. “The floor’s cold, how could you not wear your
slippers?” He criticized.
Kathy lowered her head aggrievedly as she had forgotten it accidentally and it was still fine since it was
summer. Yet she did not dare to rebut when she met his cold eyes. “I’ll remember it next time.” She
promised.
“Come and have your lunch.” Joseph held her hand after giving a short reply.
Kathy was having a splendid mood as the lunch was Cantonese cuisine made by Joseph. The meal
was delicate and delicious and almost comparable to a Michelin-starred restaurant’s.
“You really didn’t learn it from New Oriental before?” Kathy asked while chewing.
“Where’s New Oriental?” Joseph frowned in confusion.
“It’s an institution that teaches culinary skills, and it appears on ads all the time!”
“I don’t waste my time on ads. As for cooking skills, you’ll get the trick once you cook more.” Joseph
replied blandly. His casual attitude had irritated Kathy as she could not get hold of the trick even though
she had cooked all the time.
“Why don’t you teach me? So that I can cook more for you in the future too.” She peered at Joseph
with hope, yet he rejected it at once. “The food you make does not taste awful. I can endure it.”
Kathy was speechless. She put down her chopsticks and pretended to be angry. “I won’t cook
anymore.”
Joseph only let out a smile then and he looked up to her. “I do like Mrs.Joseph’s cooking more.”
Kathy felt her heart warm when he said that and she assumed it to be Joseph’s true thought.
After that, she did her revision in the study room during the afternoon as there was still half year time
for the post-graduate examination and she had to take time to revise recently.
She frowned when she remembered she had not received her undergraduate diploma. She sought and
called the number of the instructor that time. Yet the instructor sounded rude when he knew it was her.
No lecturer wanted to deal with her when what happened to her had become a scandal for the whole
school.
Kathy hesitated and decided to have a trip back to the campus.
