They didn't talk anymore during the meal.
Kathy ate these familiar dishes, but there was nothing but peace in her heart.
She sat on the sofa after finished eating, but couldn't help but occasionally turn her head to look at the
man's back.
He was doing the dishes. His back was slender and charming.
As if perceiving Kathy's gaze, he quickly placed the bowl and walked towards her.
Kathy immediately retracted her gaze with some guilty conscience and sat up straight.
Joseph sat down beside her. He didn’t do something intimate, but his powerful aura can’t be negligible.
"Zofia met me before." Kathy suddenly said, "I know everything about three years ago."
Joseph didn't speak, but his scorching eyes kept looking at Kathy.
"The way you protect me is to marry another woman, Joseph... In fact, have you ever thought I don't
want you to do this. "
In the past two days in the police station, apart from being questioned, she always remembered many
things when she was alone.
She would rather have an accident on her own, and never want to be separated from Joseph.
How could he do that... He even didn’t give her an opportunity to choose.
He was not protecting her, he was just torturing her...
"Kathy, as long as you are safe." Joseph's voice was low and gentle, "As long as you are safe."
He repeated it again and again.
Kathy just sneered and looked down. Somehow, her eyes were wet.
The next second, Joseph suddenly approached and held her in his arms. Kathy leaned on the back of
the sofa. She looked up and saw his handsome face.
He looked at her with deep and complicated emotions in his eyes, "Be with me again."
At this moment, Kathy was really stunned. She subconsciously looked at him seriously, trying to find a
trace of disguise or tricks from the bottom of his eyes.
But he just stared into her eyes and said calmly, "Kathy, stay by my side."
Kathy suddenly laughed as if she had heard a funny joke and coughed violently. She said in a broken
voice, "Do you really want everyone knows that I am a mistress?"
People in this city knew that Joseph and Zofia were about to be married, but now Joseph wanted to
marry her?
He really did something like this.
"You've never been a mistress, Kathy, I won't let you go again. Reece has a card up his sleeve, you will
be involved in his affairs, and only I can help you out of suspicion." Joseph said patiently and even
ruffled her hair affectionately.
This man can always threaten her with such a gentle voice.
She can only rely on him, otherwise, her fate may be the same as Reece.
"Would you like to stay with me? You don't need to answer me now." Joseph's voice was slightly cold,
"Now you can think about it and make any requests."
Kathy suddenly raised her head and glanced at him indifferently, "I can't be with you again."
After a pause, she smiled again, "I will never be threatened by you again. I would rather go to jail."
Joseph's eyes became colder and sharper, and his body trembled slightly. There was great anger in his
eyes, but he contained the anger.
He said gently, "Consider what I said carefully."
Kathy didn't seem to hear him and just looked out the window stubbornly.
She was probably sure that Joseph couldn't see her expression. At that moment, the fatigue and
indifference before was just like a layer of paper, which was torn away.
She slightly raised her eyebrows, and a smile touched the corners of her mouth.
In the afternoon, Joseph went out, and Kathy stayed alone in the huge house.
She told Alexia not to tell Jennifer about her affairs in City N. She hopes that her parents can enjoy
their life and stop being involved in these disputes.
She will bear all the things alone.
She personally called the dean and told the dean that she may could not go back to work in a short
time. If the hospital cannot approve her long vacation, she is willing to offer her resignation.
After dealing with all these things, she was a little sleepy, so she planned to sleep for a while.
In the past three years in Country F, no matter how warm the room was, her feet were cold when she
woke up in the morning.
But this time, she slept very warmly.
She moved her legs gently and she felt so warm. She moved again, and found that she kept putting her
feet on Joseph's legs, and she was still habitually curled up in his arms.
He just put his hand loosely on her waist, probably because he was afraid that he would press against
her.
This posture was probably not very comfortable for him.
Kathy was so sleepy that she pressed her fist against his chest and murmured, "Go away."
He just smiled softly and his chest quivered. He stroked her back, and then moved her closer to his
body, "We should get up. What do you want for dinner?"
Kathy frowned and said nothing. She just rolled over.
Joseph didn't want to wake her up anymore. He put his hand on her lower abdomen, and when he
touched it, there was a shallow bump.
He lowered his head and his thin lips brushed her shoulder blades. His hot breath fell on the back of
her neck.
Kathy closed her eyes. After a long time, she said with confusion in the darkness, "I have a lot of
dreams."
He hugged her tightly, as if comforting a child who had a nightmare, "What did you dream of?"
"But they don’t seem to be a dream..."
She paused and opened her eyes, but she couldn't see a trace of light at all. She seemed to see many
things from the past that she couldn't forget.
She can’t forget that when he "married" Ella three years ago. She can’t forget that in Europe, she stood
at the door and waited for him about three or four hours in the rain. Until her whole body was soaked,
he then let her in.
He was so indifferent and so ruthless. She didn’t know whether he hated her or loved her.
She didn't want to explore everything more clearly.
He was once the man she gave all her love.
Kathy smiled silently, and said in a low voice, "I can't forget those things...what to do..."
Her waist was suddenly encircled by his arms and then her body was turned over, so she had to face
the man behind her.
She could see his straight nose and bright eyes, which looked familiar but so strange.
His unique breath lingered around her nose. His chest was warm and muscular. Kathy looked at him for
a long while, lowered her head suddenly, and bit his neck unexpectedly.
It was as if the desperate little beast was making the final struggle, and was unwilling to let go again.
The sharp pain spread until it was numb.
But at this moment, Joseph almost only noticed this contented embrace.
In the past few months, when he was struggling to find something and couldn't get it, he only forgot
about it.
The heavy wall at the bottom of his heart collapsed suddenly. Ignoring the pain in his neck, he
stretched out his hand and lifted her jaw.
