When they returned to Joseph Bay, Kathy had fallen asleep.
Joseph stared at her quiet face and smiled tenderly. Then he kissed on her lips and it went deeper.
After the car stopped, he carried Kathy out and she finally woke up.
"Why didn't you wake me up?" Kathy muttered.
When she opened her eyes, Joseph had carried her into the bedroom.
He put her on the soft bed and pressed down on her. Kathy got trapped and could not get away.
"Just sleep. I'll give you a bath," Joseph said in a gentle voice.
Then he began to take off her clothes.
Kathy couldn't help but tremble and curl up.
Now she was not sleepy anymore.
"I can do it myself."
Although she had slept with Joseph, she felt shy sometimes when she got naked in front of him.
Seeing that Kathy almost escaped from his embrace, Joseph immediately dragged her back.
Then he carried her into the bathroom.
Kathy was slightly drunk tonight, so Joseph easily turned her on. Leaning against his embrace, she
was quite irresistible to him.
"Joseph, you're still going to work tomorrow. It's very late now."
After a long time, Kathy was getting drowsy, but Joseph still couldn't get enough.
He sounded very energetic when he kissed her ear and said in a hoarse and sexy voice.
"I won't go to work tomorrow."
Kathy closed her eyes as her body was turned over again.
...
The next day, it was already noon when Kathy woke up. She could not help but blush when she
thought of their various positions last night.
After Kathy washed and got out of the room, she saw Joseph reading medical records in the living
room. There was a pair of gold rimmed spectacles on his handsome face, which made him look so
noble and elegant.
Such a beautiful scene made Kathy's face flush and heart beat wildly.
Kathy stared at Joseph for a long time before he walked over with his long legs.
He held Kathy's head, bent down and kissed her deeply.
Then Kathy was pulled back to reality. Last night, Joseph did it so rough. She couldn't help but kind of
resist him now.
She pushed him against his chest.
Joseph carried her to the dining table. The lunch smelled so good with its perfect plating.
"You're not really going to work today?" Kathy took a bite of the tomato. Some juices left on her lips, but
it looked exceptionally alluring to Joseph.
His gaze fixed on her lips as the apple in his throat moved up and down.
"Yeah. I'll stay at home with you."
"We're going to the Booth's for dinner tonight. You still remember that, don't you?"
"Of course. I'll go with you."
Kathy smiled. After lunch, she checked her WeChat messages as she always did. All her classmates
had got their mentors now, except her.
Although she was prepared that no one would want her, she was still very disappointed at the
possibility.
Suddenly, Joseph's phone rang. After picking it up, he looked at Kathy apologetically, "I've got a
meeting at the company later. I'll try to go to the Booth's early. Is that okay?"
"Yeah. Your work is important. I'll wait for you."
After Joseph left, Kathy packed up some things and went to the Booth Mansion. But she didn't expect
to see Reece there.
He was dressed all in black, looking powerful and intimidating.
Kathy froze and did not step through the door.
Reece and Jennifer seemed to be talking about business, and they both looked a little intense.
"Oh, Kathy." Jennifer lighted up a bit when she saw Kathy.
"Mom." But Kathy was a little stiff.
"Mrs. Hilton, I have to go now." Reece stood up. He was very respectful of Jennifer.
Jennifer nodded. Reece paused for a moment when he passed by Kathy.
Kathy walked up to Jennifer. After Reece left, she asked, "Mom, what do you have to say with him?"
"Reece is a senior at your school. You seem to be quite dissatisfied with him." Jennifer finally found it
out.
"No. I just don't know much about him," Kathy said indifferently.
"His family business is in troubles. Reece hopes that I can invest in his new project." Jennifer didn't
hide anything from Kathy.
The Bridges Group and the Booth Group weren't rivals. The Booth Group was doing well recently, so
they had got plenty of liquidity funds.
But there were risks in investing the Bridges Group.
"Well, I don't understand the business world. It doesn't matter if it's profitable." Kathy remained
indifferent.
"I don't think you want me to cooperate with Reece." Jennifer could see through her daughter.
When Kathy saw Reece just now, her face went an ugly green.
"No," Kathy mumbled.
"Reece told me that your mentor has quit. He can recommend a new one for you." Jennifer looked at
Kathy.
Jennifer didn't know about this before, because Kathy rarely talked to her about her things. Jennifer
could only ask Kathy to come home more often and try to communicate more with her.
"No, I don't need that." Kathy refused Reece's offer without hesitation.
"Alright, it's up to you. I'm just worried that you haven't got a mentor yet." Jennifer frowned. She was
worried that Kathy would get kicked out of school because of her identity.
That was the last thing Jennifer wanted.
So, she did not refuse Reece just now.
"Mom, if none of the mentors wanted me, I'll think of another way." Kathy looked firm. "I won't ask
Reece for help. I don't need that."
"You really hate him." Jennifer was certain about it now.
Kathy pursed her lips and did not deny it.
"The project that Reece brought to me was in the charge of your old mentor. A big news in the medical
world."
Kathy raised her head in surprise. "Professor Zane?"
She remembered that Joseph had told her that Dona had gone to the Bridges Group.
"Yes. So, the prospects for this project are pretty good," Jennifer said from the perspective of a
businessperson.
Kathy frowned and felt a little uncomfortable.
"Mom, if you think it's good, just go for it," Kathy said indifferently.
She didn't want to affect Jennifer's judgment.
"Do you really think so?" Jennifer was a strong woman in the business world. She could feel Kathy's
mood changing.
"But people know that the Bridges Group is against the Joseph Group. The collaboration with the
former can be considered an attack on the latter." Jennifer smiled.
Kathy couldn't stay calm anymore.
"Mom, then you can't help the Bridges," Kathy muttered.
Joseph was her boyfriend and she wanted to protect him.
"Yeah, I think so. Reece is too unfathomable. And I don't like his tricks. I just thought that he could help
you at the university."
