Chapter 529 A Man Who Loves Her Dearly
Joseph Bay was spacious. Zofia's room was on the other end. John rushed over at the middle of the night to help her pack up and take her away without delay.
In the study, Joseph held a cigarette between his fingers, and continued the meeting.
"Are we still doing this? Was it Zofia?" Quinn frowned.
He heard about something about the past of Joseph and Zofia. But he didn't know the whole story.
"Yes, we are." Joseph kept a straight face.
He didn't come back to the bedroom until it was almost two in the morning. Kathy woke up from her slumber. Remembering hearing something outside, she frowned, "What happened?"
"Zofia left." Joseph told her the truth.
"What?" Kathy immediately sat up.
She smelt the perfume on Joseph.
Joseph never wore perfume, and it seemed to be Zofia's.
"She moved away. I asked her to."
"Why did you do this?" Kathy was a little angry with him for not telling her.
It was so late. She was worried about Zofia.
"Do you have a problem with her?" She was somewhat irritated.
How could he let a girl out in the middle of the night? No, she needed to find Zofia.
Just as she was about to get out of bed, Joseph held her into his arms. "Kathy, I don't want another woman at home."
Joseph said with a sullen look.
"I know, but she is my friend. It is just a week. And you know she just had an abortion." Kathy explained.
She hoped Joseph would understand.
But of course, she didn't want another woman at home.
"I've asked John to send her back to Bertie's apartment. Don't worry." Joseph said with a straight face.
Hearing this, Kathy felt relieved.
"But why now?" Kathy muttered.
He could have waited till tomorrow if he wanted her gone.
"Believe me, Zofia is fine now."
Kathy frowned. She had a feeling that something had happened between them.
Could it be argument?
She knew they seemed to have known each other a long time ago, but they were just acquaintances.
Joseph shouldn't mind her staying here.
She couldn't just figure it out. Thinking made her tired, and she closed her eyes in Joseph's arms.
But she smelled the perfume, so she gently pushed him away, "Go take a bath."
Joseph smiled indulgently and gave her so many kisses before going to the bathroom.
Kathy then took out her phone and wanted to send Zofia a message. But on second thoughts, she put her phone away.
In Bertie's apartment.
He was back in the afternoon. He picked up his sister and drove her to his apartment.
"Let's go back to Country C, alright?" Bertie looked at her gloomily.
"No." Zofia rejected without thinking.
"Joseph doesn't like you."
"I know, but he is responsible for me!" Zofia said firmly.
"Zofia, the past is the past."
"You like Kathy, don't you? If I have Joseph back, you can stay with her. Isn't that good?" Zofia's voice was a little sharp.
Although she didn't like Kathy, she wouldn't mind if her brother and she got together so that Joseph would be hers.
"Just wake up. Mom has found lots of boys for you. Come back with me tomorrow." Bertie sort of commanded.
He shouldn't have let her stay in City N since she remembered everything.
"No. Can you please talk to mom? She likes Joseph. And she said she would be glad if he married me. Then don't let her force me to see other men."
"Mom has known you had an abortion. Punishment will be given to Sonny tomorrow. He will be expelled." Bertie burst out.
Hearing this, Zofia froze.
"What?"
She remembered Sonny, the man who loved her deeply.
She was sorry for him. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
But she couldn't get over Joseph. From the moment she decided to have an abortion, there was no turning back.
"Just come back with me. I'll spare Sonny." Bertie could see what Zofia was thinking.
She loved Sonny, and she was easily touched. How could she leave it all behind?
"Really?" Almost at once, Zofia wished she hadn't spoken.
"He has nothing to do with me. Just stop talking." Zofia pushed Bertie away. "I won't go back to Country C."
"Bertie, help me. You know I've loved Joseph since I was a little girl. I can't live without him!" Zofia looked at Bertie, her eyes filled with tears.
When she became Veronica's friend at a young age, she saw Joseph a lot. She did not know when she started to have feelings for him.
On the night that she turned eighteen, Joseph broke into her bathtub. He had to be responsible for her!
"He doesn't love you." Bertie cut in.
"And Kathy doesn't love you. But you still love her, right? Can you understand what I'm feeling?"
Bertie pursed his lips. Of course, he understood her.
He knew Zofia had a huge crush on Joseph. He couldn't miss that.
If Joseph and Kathy weren't together, he might help his sister, but Kathy was very happy now. He didn't want anyone to ruin it.
"That's fine if you don't help me. I'll go back to school tomorrow." Zofia said grimly.
"It's up to you, but I won't care if mom comes for you."
"You!" Zofia was angry. She knew that her family wasn't happy with her staying in City N. If Bertie didn't help her, she would be caught back for sure.
"Help me, please. I will die without Joseph." Zofia gritted her teeth.
He was her life.
"I won't let you die. By the way, Sonny isn't a bad guy." Bertie said.
The Marshalls didn't like Sonny, but Bertie was an exception.
Sonny wasn't wealthy, but he loved his sister with heart and soul.
Zofia did not need a rich husband. As long as he could make her happy, it was enough.
If only Zofia could figure it out.
Returning to his room, Bertie called Joseph.
"Thank you for sending her back."
"No problem." Joseph replied plainly.
He had just come out from bathroom. Kathy had fallen asleep, so he kept his voice low.
"I will try my best to persuade her to go back to Country C, but you know her."
"I won't give her another chance. I believe you know what I'm saying." Joseph said in a deep voice.
