On the plane, Kathy did not expect to meet Reece again.
There was only a corridor between them. Joseph was on Kathy’s left side whereas Reece was on her
right.
Reece took out his sunglasses and narrowed his eyes, he smiled, “Ms Kathy, we meet again.”
Kathy frowned, she did not want to talk to him.
Reece did not get irritated. After he greeted Kathy, he put on his sunglasses and slept for the whole
trip.
The flight did not take a long time. When Kathy got off the plane, she felt sleepy.
Joseph held Kathy’s hand when got off the plane. They could not avoid themselves to meet Reece.
He spoke suddenly, “It is a waste if Mr Joseph just goes back like this.”
Joseph stopped his steps, his sight turned cold.
“If Mr Bridges wants to create trouble intentionally, why should I waste my time?”
“You should not intervene.”
After that, Reece walked away.
Joseph gradually held Kathy’s hand with strength.
“Joseph…” Kathy frowned, it was painful.
Joseph turned his tense expression gentler and left the cabin with no expression.
Kathy did not understand their conversation but she looked at Joseph’s serious face and did not ask
about it.
When they arrived at the house of the Booth family, Joseph still showed a dull expression.
“I go back now,” Kathy looked at him and did not bear to leave.
Joseph still held her hand tightly.
Kathy could not understand his down emotion.
“Check up at the hospital tomorrow, your medicine is almost finished, right?” He asked.
Kathy nodded but she thought of the medicine, it tasted so bad. It was bitter dissolved medicine.
“How long do I need to take it? I feel good recently.”
“One year,” Joseph said.
Kathy paled, “Why? I study in the medical field as well, the surgery is successful. If it is an anti-
inflammatory medicine, I don’t have to take it for so long.”
She read some medical record recently, after the surgery succeeded and did not have anymore
symptoms, it was unnecessary to consume anymore medicine.
Joseph bit his lips, did not speak a word.
He did not want to lie to Kathy.
Look at his tense expression, Kathy thought of something suddenly.
“Does my surgery fail?” Kathy asked nervously.
Joseph looked at her and shook his head.
“The surgery is successful but trust me, you still need to eat medicine.”
Kathy looked at him, her face darkened.
She felt intuitive that Joseph was not telling the truth.
“I know it.”
After that, Kathy got down the car irritably. When she arrived at her home, she called Professor
Benedict and altered her story to her friend’s story then sought advice from the professor.
Benedict was confused, he asked Kathy to bring him the medicine.
That afternoon, Kathy went to Professor Watson’s house.
She did not expect that his house was just located in the same neighbourhood as hers. When the door
opened, she saw a familiar people, Keira.
“Kathy?” Keira was surprised. She then opened the door instantly.
Kathy thought of her name, Keira Watson, Benedict Watson, were they father and daughter?
“Is it Kathy?” Benedict’s voice was heard from the living room.
“Dad, is Kathy your student?” Keira asked.
“Yup. Kathy, please follow me to the study room,” Benedict said to her.
Benedict did not know about Kathy’s surgery before. The majority did not know except her kin and
friends.
Benedict looked at the medicine, his expression changed.
“This is banned medicine, neurology and brain specialists have banned this type of medicine. I also
don’t understand why your friend wants to use it,” Benedict shook his head.
This type of medicine had a lot of effects.
“Banned medicine…Where can it be found?” Kathy muttered.
Why Joseph gave her the medicine?
“I know that there is a medical research centre called NS. I don’t know whether there is any other place
expect this. It has serious side effect, if consume it for a long time can cause addiction, have to stop it,”
Benedict shook his head.
After leaving the study room, Benedict wanted to stay Kathy here and eat together. Kathy did not have
mood and left after discussing some academic stuff with Benedict.
Keira walked together with her to the door.
“If you stay nearby, you can accompany my father when you are free. My mother has passed away in
the earlier year, my father is quite lonely,” Keira said.
“Of course I can do it,” Kathy smiled.
Look at Kathy’s leaving silhouette, Keira’s expression turned stiff.
After going back to her house, Kathy locked herself in her room.
It was time to eat medicine but she threw away all the medicine into the rubbish bin.
She lay on the bed irritably and thought of Joseph’s hesitated expression, why he…why he gave her
the medicine?
She found the medical report in another hospital. Kathy observed her X-ray film and had no idea.
All the medical report showed that her condition was fine.
So, why she had to eat the medicine that can cause addiction?
Kathy wanted to cry.
She thought everything would be alright after she recovered.
But this made her helpless. The surgery probably did not succeed or there was another incident?
She wanted to ask Joseph about it clearly.
Joseph said that he was going to the Joseph’s Group just now, Kathy took a taxi there.
She was a part of the intern students in the Joseph’s Group. She scanned the card before entering the
building but there was only one secretary on duty at the topmost level.
“If you want to see Mr Joseph, he does not come today,” the secretary said politely.
Kathy frowned, she walked while called Joseph.
“Yes?” Joseph’s tone was gentle at the moment.
“I want to see you.”
“I will pick you up at your house, let’s eat together in the old house tonight,” Joseph said.
Kathy hesitated. She wanted to talk private affair with Joseph but she felt something bad will happen.
“I am at the Joseph’s Group,” Kathy muttered.
“I will be there soon.”
Kathy waited at the first floor of the Joseph’s Group. The time flew as her panic emotion arose.
In half an hour, Joseph walked in.
Kathy lowered her head, she could just watch the boring drama to distract her emotion.
She did not realize when did Joseph come.
“Kathy,” his low tone was heard.
Kathy looked up in a panic, Joseph could see her reddened eyes.
She could not control herself but to hold him tightly, did not care that they were in the Joseph’s Group
at the moment.
“Joseph, tell me what has happened to me. Don’t lie to me, can or not?” Kathy cried.
Joseph frowned, he held her and showed a tense expression.
He held her cold hand and brought her to sit in the black car parked outside.
Kathy looked at him without blinking.
“Kathy, what do you know?” Joseph tensed his expression.
“The medicine I eat is not the normal anti-inflammatory medicine, it is a banned medicine and will get
addicted to it.”
“It will not cause addiction, I have made some changes to it. It will only treat the chip in your brain, you
have to eat it for a long period to suppress the chip, or else it will control your mind.”
Kathy turned pale.
“What do you mean?”
