Kathy washed up and changed her clothes, unexpectedly Joseph was already there.
She opened the door, the exhaustion on his face could not be hidden. Did he not rest last night?
In her distractedness, Joseph already embraced her tightly, “Kathy, I missed you so much.”
Closing the door, he pushed her towards the wall, Kathy almost could not handle his passionate kisses.
Her whole body went soft, and could only stand well leaning into Joseph.
But now, she was a little reluctant. She could not help but bit onto Joseph stopping him from continuing,
she pushed him away immediately.
“I went to the hospital last night,” Kathy said lightly.
She was not a person who could hide her thoughts, and she did not want to have any
misunderstanding between her and Joseph.
This was what she thought thoroughly last night.
“Why didn’t you wait for me?”
“I saw Zofia,” Kathy’s tone dimmed.
Her chin was suddenly lifted, now, Kathy had to look at Joseph.
He looked at Kathy’s reddened eyes, did she cry last night?
His warm fingers touched the corners of her eyes caringly, and gave her a soft kiss.
“Did you misunderstand Zofia and me?” Joseph asked almost certainly.
This little woman…
Kathy was silent, did she misunderstand?
“Mrs Marshall was admitted to the hospital, and Zofia’s emotions were unstable. But she and I only
have the relationship of a patient and a doctor,” Joseph explained slowly word by word.
Now, Kathy froze.
“Mrs Marshall’s in the hospital?”
Joseph nodded, “Her condition is a little complicated, the professors at the hospital had meetings
almost every day to discuss.”
Kathy lowered her gaze, then Zofia must be devastated.
Only Joseph could have soothed her sadness.
“Then you should accompany her more,” Kathy replied lightly.
The next second, her face was turned over by Joseph, his gaze looked a little frightening.
“Do you really think so?” He stared at her in displease.
Kathy frowned, leaning into Joseph, of course she did not think so.
But at this moment she answered against her heart, “Yes.”
As she said so, Joseph suddenly let go of her and turned to leave.
The sound of the door closing was clear, Kathy was shocked as her face paled. She fell down slowly
into a sitting position on the floor and her tears streamed down once again.
Outside, Joseph got into the car yet he did not start the engine.
He had pulled an all-nighter to handle all of the affairs at the hospital just to get to see Kathy faster. But
he never expected that she would have such an attitude.
He stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away.
Kathy stood at the balcony, watching as the Cayenne left her sight. Her body felt as if it had been
emptied, feeling weak all over.
Two days later, Kathy did not know how she got through it. She and Joseph had no contact at all, and
they never met each other after.
He should be at the hospital?
Although the school was not far away from the hospital, she did not go over.
She was afraid to see that scene that got her crazy with jealousy again.
All the way until Monday, when she was supposed to attend the research program with Reece, only
that Kathy went out.
Her complexion was exhausted, and her eyes were sunken and black-ringed.. She did not bother
covering it with makeup, and exposed herself like this before Reece.
“Kathy, if you’re not feeling your best, you can attend the research a few days later.”
“I’m fine,” Kathy shook her head, and tried to look energised.
But in Reece’s eyes, she was obviously toughening herself up.
Further, Kathy did not look well, she seemed like she was sick.
“I’m your superior now, you must listen to my orders.” Reece’s expression darkened seriously.
However, he did not bring her back to the dormitory, instead he brought her to the infirmary.
“What are you doing, Reece!”
“You’re having a fever,” Reece stared at her darkly.
Kathy stunned, fever… she seemed… to have one.
“I’ll take some medicine on my own.”
“I don’t think you would take medicine on your own. Come here to visit the doctor, and I’ll be assured.”
As he said so, he took her to the infirmary without another word.
Kathy followed behind Reece, her steps were weak. She held against the wall, looking as she were
about to fall. Reece carried her up firmly.
“Reece!” Kathy could only hold onto his neck on instinct.
Reece’s handsome face was taut, ignoring her resistance, he carried her into the infirmary.
The lady doctor knew Reece, seeing that Reece actually walked in carrying a woman, she was very
surprised.
“What’s… going on?”
“Fever,” Reece put Kathy down, she immediately pushed him away once she was on the floor.
But she was no match for Reece, as he still stood beside her.
The lady doctor looked at Kathy and passed a thermometer over.
“Put this under your armpit for ten minutes.”
Kathy was not cooperative, as she turned and tried to walk away.
But Reece did not let her get her wish as he tugged on her arm and forced her into his arms.
“If you don’t do so, I’ll help you to,” he took up the thermometer.
The anger in Kathy’s eyes spread as she gritted her teeth, and she snatched the thermometer.
Only then Reece let her go in satisfaction.
At this moment, anger flashed through the lady doctor’s eyes.
“Reece, is she your student?” The lady doctor came over to ask.
“I think so.”
“Are you two dating?” The lady doctor could not help but ask.
Since she had never seen Reece being so close to anyone.
Further, he had even came in just now holding Kathy.
“Of course not!” Now, it was Kathy who immediately explained first.
The lady doctor instantly smiled, but Reece’s expression went cold.
Meanwhile, the lady doctor kept finding topics to talk about with Reece, yet his attitude remained
nonchalant.
Until the time was up, Kathy took out the thermometer.
“39 degrees Celsius!”
“Get her on a drip,” ordered Reece.
At this moment, the lady doctor seemed to have become Reece’s subordinate.
Kathy naturally felt that the lady doctor had feelings for Reece, but… she was innocent as well.
“I’ll take some medicine on my own when I get back, don’t you have to go to the research lab?” Kathy
reminded him.
“No hurry,” but Reece sat down casually.
When the research would start was all depending on his word.
The lady doctor brought the drip over quickly. Kathy laid on the bed, watching the lady nurse putting the
needle in, it was so painful that she tore up.
This lady doctor did so on purpose!
Kathy bit her lip, the anger made her glare at Reece.
Reece frowned, not knowing what was going on.
“Did it hurt badly?” seeing that Kathy’s face was scrunched up, he walked over.
“None of your business,” Kathy turned her head.
Reece sat down by her side, the lady doctor immediately stumbled and the needle accidentally… went
in wrongly…
Kathy took in a breath, getting a drip made her felt like she was undergoing torture…
Now, Reece finally understood.
His terrifying gaze landed on the lady doctor, and she mumbled, “Sorry.”
This time she did not dare to act discreetly, after she inserted the needle she left immediately. Yet, her
gaze still remained on Reece unwillingly.
She must find out who that woman was!
Kathy closed her eyes, she was really exhausted. She had forced herself to wake up today, after she
relaxed, she could not resist her sleepiness and fell asleep.
