“Is anyone here?” Joseph pulled the chair beside Kathy directly.
Hearing that, the two students on the opposite side were dumbfounded. Seeing Joseph coming over,
they suddenly became a little nervous, but they admired and respected him more.
“Mr Joseph, no one is sitting here.” One of the classmates had already spoken.
Perceiving Joseph's breath, Kathy bit her lip, a little nervous.
But she didn’t look up.
The two classmates had already talked with Joseph, and occasionally asked Kathy, she could only
participate in the conversation.
Until Joseph's meal was served.
It was exactly the same as the shredded chicken noodles Kathy ordered.
No chili, added more soy sauce.
This wasn’t Joseph’s favorite taste…
Kathy frowned, trying to ignore it.
But the classmate on the opposite side discovered it and said in surprise, “Joseph has the same taste
as Kathy!”
Joseph curled his thin lips faintly. “It tastes delicious.”
Kathy was speechless.
She didn't know that Joseph liked this kind of taste. He always preferred light food, and soy sauce was
almost not seen on the table.
But now…
Kathy didn't think much. And she just wanted to finish eating quickly and go up first.
The two classmates had been asking about Joseph's professional knowledge, and Kathy planned to
leave first after eating.
But Joseph stopped her and said.
“Kathy, come to my office later.”
“Joseph, is there anything wrong?” Kathy had frozen for a couple of seconds.
“Official business.”Joseph said concisely, without saying much at the moment.
The two classmates finally found something strange. They looked at Kathy and Joseph back and forth,
but they dared not say anything at the moment.
Joseph was her boss and her professor, so Kathy couldn’t disobey him.
Following Joseph all the way up to the top floor, Kathy kept an impassive face.
And Joseph looked sullen and not as talkative as he was in the restaurant just now.
Joseph seemed to be at work immediately after entering the office. And many executives were waiting
outside to report to him, but they were afraid to enter.
Kathy followed Joseph hesitantly, standing a few meters away from him.
“Joseph, is there any official business that I need to deal with?” Kathy asked politely.
“You will help me take the meeting minutes later.” Joseph threw her a notebook directly.
Kathy was speechless.
“Isn't this John's job?”
“He will go to the police station to handle Veronica's case later.” Joseph said coldly.
“What about the others?” Kathy's face clearly showed her resistance.
Hearing this, Joseph raised his eyes and looked at her with a cold look.
Kathy trembled and she dared not say anything.
She sat aside, and several executives came in to report on the recent sales of several new drugs.
Kathy had worked with Joseph for a long time before, and she was also agile in the work. The new
drugs of the Joseph's Group appeared to be gaining momentum and the sales had been rising, but a
new drug seemed to have appeared on the market and was gradually occupying the market.
“This matter must be found out today. I want to know the details of this medicine.” Joseph said coldly.
Everyone nodded, and the office became quiet.
Kathy arranged the minutes of the meeting and handed it to Joseph. She stood quietly next to him
when his mobile phone rang.
It was a call from John. Joseph pressed the speakerphone directly and stood in front of the French
window with his back to Kathy.
John's voice came from the phone clearly, “Joseph, according to the police's feedback, Billy has
dropped the prosecution.”
Joseph was not surprised, and he hung up after a few words.
“You can go out now.” Joseph walked over and took the notebook from Kathy.
Kathy nodded, and subconsciously she raised her head and glanced at Joseph.
At such a close distance, she could clearly see the weariness on his face that he couldn’t hide.
He hadn't rested much these days.
At the moment Kathy lost her senses, Joseph turned his head and looked at her eyes suddenly.
She immediately looked away, and was hugged tightly by Joseph as she turned around.
She struggled but failed.
Joseph's low voice fell in her ears, “Don't move, and let me hug.”
Kathy stiffened and her whole body tautened.
Soon Joseph let her go, and Kathy ran out immediately.
As long as she approached Joseph, everything was out of control.
The Booth’s residence.
Jennifer had been living here recently and hadn't returned to the Hilton family.
A royal blue sports car stopped at the door with a sudden brake, and Billy got out of the car angrily.
The butler couldn't stop him at all, so he could only run in and report immediately.
Jennifer was practicing in the piano room, and the melodious music had to be stopped because Billy
suddenly broke in.
She turned her head and frowned.
“Mom, you are so mean!” Billy said coldly with hatred.
In order to prevent him from suing Veronica, Jennifer even threatened his lawyer to abandon the
prosecution.
It was too late when he learned about it, and the withdrawal of the case had been accepted by the
police.
Jennifer's face was always indifferent, “I'm helping you.”
“If you don't worry that I'll be dead on the street one day, you can continue to let the people of the
Joseph family go!”
“You shouldn't handle Veronica like this.”
“Send her to jail, and then this matter can be over!”
“Billy, listen to me, the current Joseph family is no longer the same it used to be, you can't beat them.”
Jennifer said solemnly.
She saw it very clearly.
But Billy was still unrepentant.
He would only destroy himself.
Jennifer did not want to see that.
“No, I'm going to crush the Joseph family.” Billy vowed.
“You did it wrong in those days.”
“That was an accident!” Billy was almost hysterical.
He would do such a thing to Veronica simply because of the effect of alcohol, he did not hold the bag!
“That's what has happened. We cannot afford to offend the Joseph family now.” Jennifer said earnestly.
The Hilton family had a sparse population, and its power had been declining over the years, relying
solely on the support of the Booth family.
Zack had passed away, and now Booth Group was in charge of Jennifer, but it was always inferior to
the current Joseph family.
Joseph was dangerous and terrifying, and everyone was afraid of him.
“Mom, if we want to deal with the Joseph family, we only need to deal with Joseph, and his weakness is
Kathy.” Billy squinted coldly.
Jennifer turned pale when she heard this.
“Stay away from my daughter!”
“Mom, I was raised by you, too. Although I’m just an adopted child, you can't be so partial, right?” Billy’s
eyes were terrifying.
Billy was a man who had been devoured by hatred.
Jennifer was bitterly disappointed, and she didn't even know what to say.
She knew Billy so well that once he decided what to do, no one could stop him.
“If you dare to use Kathy, don't expect me to support you in the future.” Jennifer said ruthlessly.
Her only concern now was Kathy.
She wasn't with Kathy for so many years, she just wanted to make up for her, not to hurt her.
“I will use her.” Billy said stonily.
