My Sweetheart

Chapter 576 Very Gloomy, Very Angry

Kathy steadied herself, then wanted to push him away.

However, Joseph was so strong that she couldn't pull herself back.

"Joseph!"

"Are you jealous?" He asked in a gloomy tone, his black eyes fixed on her.

"No." Kathy blurted out.

Sure enough, Joseph's face became even gloomier.

"Alright."

Silent, he just let go of her. Then, he turned around and left.

Kathy's heart was instantly empty.

She admitted that she was jealous.

"Bastard." She cursed. She was mad at both herself and Joseph.

Returning to his office, Joseph threw away all the love letters. But he felt more agitated as he thought of Kathy's stubborn look.

He put on his coat and quickly left his office.

When he passed by Ella's ward, Ella ran out and stopped him.

"Doctor Joseph, you got off work without telling me?" Ella pouted.

Kathy was happened to be in the corridor. She was surprised at her coquetry.

"Yes." Joseph's face was cold.

Ella quickly grabbed Joseph's sleeve as she saw Kathy from the corner of her eyes.

"I'm light in the head. Help me." She leaned towards Joseph.

As a gentleman, he supported her. Of course, he could tell that she was acting, but he didn't push her away.

He helped her to the bed and immediately broke away.

"Stop acting." His voice was cold.

"You broke up with Kathy, did you?" Ella was somewhat nervous.

She had noticed that Joseph and Kathy were different. They weren't as intimate as they used to be. Recently, they were aloof with each other.

"We didn't break up." Joseph stated and quickly left.

Naturally, Kathy, who was standing out of the ward, heard him.

Turning away in embarrassment, she didn't look at him.

Two days later, Sonny was basically cured and could be discharged from the hospital.

It was a weekend, and Kathy didn't need to go to the hospital. But since Sonny called her, she went there.

"My hand isn't so flexible yet. I don't have any friends in City N, so I can only turn to you." Sonny appeared to be sorry.

"Never mind. Anyway, I'm free today." Kathy was gentle.

When they left, Joseph happened to be on his rounds.

Kathy was packing up when Joseph walked in. The ward seemed to be cramped.

She froze for a long while before continuing.

"Come back next Tuesday." Joseph reminded.

"Thank you, Professor Joseph."

Joseph gave a faint nod and left.

Sonny turned to Kathy with his eyes darkened.

Kathy sent Sonny back to school and they made an appointment to finish their group project tomorrow.

Sonny stopped Kathy when she was about to leave.

"Kathy, thank you for taking care of me. I have a little gift for you. I hope you can take it." He handed over an exquisite box.

It was handmade. A unique one.

Kathy frowned, "Sonny, you were injured because of me. You don't need to do this."

"Take it for my sake." Sonny insisted and stuffed the gift into her hand.

"It's not expensive, but I'd like to show how I sorry I am with it."

Kathy pursed her lips and gave a slow nod.

When she returned to the dormitory, Joseph called her before she could open the gift. He asked her to go to Boston Hospital.

A patient was transferred from the emergency department and he needed to be operated on at once. Kathy went into the operating room as soon as she arrived.

Joseph's expression was tense and serious.

Afraid of his aura, Kathy stood in a distance and didn't approach.

The patient was bleeding all over, and he looked terribly bad.

Even though Kathy had participated in many surgeries, she was still shocked at him.

Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of her, "Is that okay?"

Kathy looked up and met Joseph's deep eyes. Solemn, she nodded and put on a mask.

"Stay by my side." Joseph said in a low voice.

Kathy's tension relaxed. It seemed that she could gain much courage just by standing by his side.

This invisible force helped her overcome many psychological obstacles.

Finally, the moment the operation was completed, Kathy heaved a sigh of relief.

However, the next moment, she had to follow Joseph to the ward. She was busy until late at night.

Her stomach had rumbled for a long while. But Joseph was still writing the medical report. He seemed to always be so energetic, even though he did look exhausted.

"Joseph, do you want to have a bite?" Kathy couldn't help but ask.

This man always thought himself a superman. Anyway, he hadn't taken a bite for nearly eight hours.

"Yes, order some food for me." Joseph instructed.

Kathy called the nearest restaurant so that the food could be delivered sooner.

Seeing him writing all the time, she walked over, "Let me help you."

Perhaps because she was too close, the aura of Joseph immediately seized her. When she raised her head, she found that he was just leaning over, and their lips happened to meet.

She widened her eyes and retreated. However, Joseph tightly held her head. She was unable to move and could only enjoy his gentle kiss.

He was so gentle that she almost indulged herself.

Only when a knock on the door came did Kathy push him away. It was Ella.

Ella's face darkened when she saw them almost in each other's embrace.

"Doctor Joseph, I've run out of medicine." Ella made up an excuse.

"Go find the nurse." Joseph replied indifferently.

"The nurse is off duty."

Kathy did not believe her at all. She was probably making an excuse to find Joseph.

"I'll leave first."

However, just as she spoke, Joseph stopped her.

"Let's go back together."

When they passed by Ella, Joseph stated, "Go back to the ward."

Ella pouted, displeasure spreading out on her face.

When they walked out of the hospital, Kathy did not get in the car.

"I'll just go back myself."

"Kathy, do you think I'll let you go back alone?" Joseph's face was gloomy. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"It has nothing to do with you."

But Joseph did not let go of her, and Kathy was easily stuffed into the car.

Along the way, she did not say a word.

The car drove into University F and stopped at the dormitory. There was a tall figure standing at the entrance.

In the dim light of the night, Kathy couldn't make out who that was. But Joseph knew it was Sonny.

His hands fastened on the steering wheel as he suddenly swerved.

"Joseph, where are you going? I've arrived." Kathy frowned.

Joseph did not reply until the car stopped at the teachers' apartment.

Kathy walked back the moment she got off. But Joseph grabbed her wrist.

"Follow me." He sounded really gloomy and angry.

A tremble ran down Kathy's spine.
