Chapter 539 It Is You Who Is My Guiding Light
Kathy could not help but break into a smile, “It’s you who is my guiding light, without you, I might never be able to persist on getting my master’s degree.”
“Then we help each other to succeed, alright?” Joseph mumbled quietly.
Kathy nodded seriously, even if there were tens and thousands of people trying to stop them from being together, she would not be afraid.
By holding Joseph’s hand, she was already holding all she had.
Three days were allocated for the promotional even in BV City, the two went to stay in a hotel, basically all the participants this event were staying in the same hotel.
As the two walked into the elevator, Ella came in as well, having done her check-in arrangements.
Joseph had booked the presidential suite on the top floor, while Ella reached her room at the 28th floor.
Before she went out, she looked at Joseph, “Joseph, can we have dinner together tonight to discuss about the details of the promotional event for these few days?”
Ella’s gaze was locked on Joseph at all times, as if Kathy was not present.
“I believe all of the details have already been received by your email inbox,” Joseph was expressionless.
Ella bit her lip and did not move her steps, looking at Joseph, her gaze was hard to move away.
“Alright.”
The elevator door closed again, Kathy looked at Ella’s retreating figure and her expression dimmed.
“I remember that she’s your secretary on the arrangement schedule.”
This position of Ella’s was suddenly arranged into this trip, it seemed that someone had arranged this deliberately.
“Yes, I don’t need a secretary.”
Despite what Joseph said, but the following day was the first day of the promotional event. Ella was obviously well prepared, as she came to knock on Joseph’s door early in the morning.
Kathy was only a student of University F and was merely accommodating to Joseph’s work arrangements, but Ella was working directly for Joseph. Important information was passed to her first, which she would then pass to Joseph.
Kathy came to open the door, seeing Ella, she was expressionless.
“Hold on for a while.”
After she said so, she went to shut the door again, yet Ella was quicker and held back the door.
“I’ll wait inside,” as she said so, she pushed Kathy away with a slight force of her hand.
Joseph sat on the couch, handsome and elegant as always. Seeing Ella, his thin lips curled up sarcastically, “Secretary Bridges is indeed responsible.
His tone was very unpleased upon closer inspection.
But Ella pretended not to hear him and passed him the meeting schedule for today.
Joseph was only a speaker for today, the rest of the speeches would be handled by the person in charge of the research and development department of the Joseph’s Group.
“Joseph, I brought you some breakfast. I’m afraid you wouldn’t have time to eat later, have some first quickly.” Ella’s look at Joseph was full of care.
Just that Joseph was not impressed at all, taking over the document he then held onto Kathy’s hand, the two preparing to go down for breakfast.
He left her some cold words, “Ella, remember your position. You’re not my personal secretary but my work secretary. If you dare to appear in my room again tomorrow, I’ll change your hotel for you.”
He said there words without mercy.
Ella’s face immediately paled. She wanted to chase after them, but looking at how harmonised the two’s silhouettes were, she hesitated.
She clenched her fist and took a deep breath, going down to the event venue.
There was still an hour before the promotional event started, Kathy was reading a book while eating her breakfast. Tomorrow would be her turn to make a speech on stage, at this moment, she was finally feeling the pressure.
But Joseph was calm as always, holding onto her, he took her book away. “You can read your script tomorrow.”
“No!” Kathy refused immediately.
Looking at her script to make a speech… seemed embarrassing.
“This occasion is not that formal, relax,” Joseph frowned.
Once Kathy became nervous she had insomnia easily, she already did not sleep well last night, now there were huge dark circles under her eyes.
He felt bad for her.
“I should still prepare well to uphold the reputation of University F, I’ll get everything memorised today,” Kathy smiled confidently.
Joseph smiled and held the back of her head passionately, as he was about to land a kiss, he was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.
Quinn and Veronica were just walking over here, she was about to call out for her brother. Seeing this scene, she halted in her footsteps.
Kathy buried her head in Joseph’s chest feeling a little embarrassed…
Seeing that the two have separated, only that Quinn and Veronica sat down.
Quinn was now the CEO of the Joseph’s Group, it was unsurprising for his appearance.
Meanwhile, Veronica has just finished her admissions exams, so she followed Quinn here.
“We came too early, did we not?” Veronica looked at the two, smiling.
“Not too early, why are you here?” Joseph frowned.
“I finished my exams and had nothing to do. What, are you not allowing me to go out?” Veronica pulled a long face.
She obviously knew that Joseph was worried about their grandfather. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Since if she was not at home, there were no more relatives at their grandfather’s side.
“Can I stop you?” Joseph shook his head in exasperation.
Veronica laughed.
Now that she finished her exams, she was in a much better mood. After she had breakfast, she did not follow Quinn, as Joseph and him have to prepare for the promotional event.
Kathy had nothing to do today, but she still had to stay at the venue, so Veronica followed by her side.
Kathy pushed the wheelchair and brought her to sit down at the meeting room.
Once Ella saw Joseph coming from afar, she immediately ran to his side.
“Why did that woman come along too? Are you not jealous?” Veronica obviously saw it too, as she asked suddenly.
“They’re just work partners,” Kathy replied lightly.
“Since you have decided to be together with my brother, although I know that my brother is very serious towards relationships, but men still have to be watched.” Veronica frowned.
She knew about Ella’s means, to let her grandfather accept her, she must have been not easy to deal with.
“Thank you for reminding me, Miss Veronica,” Kathy smiled.
Although Veronica had changed a lot of her opinion towards Kathy, but the two were not close at all. So the topic of their conversation eventually landed on their mutual friend, Zofia.
“Zofia used to like my brother, I always thought that she would end up marrying my brother,” Veronica said silently.
Zofia was her best friend from she was young, if she could marry the brother she respected the most, it was the best thing to happen in her eyes.
Yet her brother never had any feelings for Zofia.
Then when Zofia had amnesia, she always thought it was a good thing. The person she liked did not like her back was really a cruel thing, she did not want Zofia to continue suffering.
But she did not expect her to regain her memory.
Now, her brother had another woman by his side.
“It’s still good that she is now back in Country C, she’ll meet the man who truly loves her,” Veronica sighed.
But Kathy stayed silent. Zofia was not one to give up so easily, she would accept no one besides Joseph.
Every time she thought of Zofia, Kathy would feel sad.
“You won’t be angry with Zofia, right?” Veronica asked suddenly.
She saw Kathy being expressionless, seeming like it was nothing.
“I don’t think I’m that tolerant,” Kathy smiled in exasperation.
