My Sweetheart

Chapter 630 I Won't Marry You

"Reece."

"Hmm? You finally called me, don't you?" Reece chuckled.

"Why did you do this?" Kathy asked directly.

"What did I do?" Reece asked innocently.

"Do you know what's going on with the Booth Group? You will ruin it if the Bridges Group pulls their money from the Booth Group under your thumb!" Kathy shouted hysterically.

"Karl forced me to do this. He is just an old man, yet he has not transferred his inheritance rights to me. I can only make some troubles."

Kathy was sad. Indeed, the relationship between Reece and Karl had come to such a sorry state.

"Then why did you set my mother up?" All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Jennifer is the Achilles' heel of your father. What do you say?"

"She's my mother!" Kathy roared.

"Actually, what I asked is very simple: Karl takes a back seat completely and resigns from the chairman position and you marry me."

Kathy remained silent for quite a while.

Even Karl hadn't given up his power yet, Reece had already made his own arrangements and he could take that position easily.

"I won't marry you!" Kathy said again.

Reece was the last man in the world she could ever marry.

"Kathy, please think about your mother and take a second thought of my proposal." After saying that, Reece quickly hung up the phone.

Kathy staggered and her face was extremely pale.

She sat on the sofa. As time passed by, Kathy suddenly realized that her mother would be taken away from her ward. Jennifer was too weak to take any more stimulus.

Suddenly, her mobile rang.

Kathy checked the caller ID. It was the call from Jaydon.

She didn't want to answer this call, but it kept ringing and she was really bothered.

She answered the phone anyway.

"Hello?"

"Kathy, I got some money and I suppose that you should need it."

Jaydon told Kathy how much money he had over the phone. Kathy was shocked since the amount was really huge...

At this stage, no company was willing to invest this large amount of money to help the Booth Group out.

"Where did you get so much money?"

"It's not a big deal. I sold some of my stocks." Jaydon said casually, "I hope that it helps."

"No ... no." Kathy said slowly.

At this moment, she should thank Jaydon, but she could not. Kathy could not breathe smoothly since her mother might be sent to jail any moment.

She hung up the phone in a hurry. Kathy lay down on the sofa and wept.

A handsome and indifference face filled Kathy's mind when she was sleepy. Only this powerful man could fight against Reece.

She was unwilling to surrender to Reece. Did she have to ask help from Joseph?

It was so pathetic.

Kathy opened her eyes. Neither of them was she preferred.

Instead of going to the People's Hospital, Kathy visited her mother while Karl watched over Jennifer around the clock.

Only now did Kathy realize that her parents were old. Reece was such a shrewd and deep person and it was difficult to fight against him.

Seeing Kathy, Karl sighed and walked towards her, "Can Jaydon help us?"

"Reece still has those evidences even we can get the financing, hasn't he?" Kathy murmured.

Compare with property and money, Jennifer's safety was more important.

"I will go to Europe tomorrow to negotiate with Reece."

"He might not give way easily."

"I know. He has those evidences, and I have some as well." Karl said coldly.

Kathy pursed her lips and reminded Karl, "Dad, be careful. I will stay here and watch over Mom."

Karl nodded slowly. Kathy walked into the ward. She bit her lips tightly and held back her tears.

"Kathy, don't waste your time on me." Jennifer said.

"I'm your daughter and that's what I should do, isn't it?"

"It was my fault." Jennifer sighed heavily.

Being in a high position, it was inevitable to cross the line sometimes. However, she was trapped this time even she knew that something might happen.

Her only concern now was Kathy.

She just had to be safe.

"Mom, don't blame yourself. Dad will take care of it."

"Both of us know well what kind of person Reece is, don't we?"

Kathy was silent, but she still had a hope.

"I know. He just wants to marry you. You are my daughter and I will let you to be wronged. I will not allow you to marry Reece as you don't like him." Jennifer said loudly.

Kathy couldn't hold back her tears more. She hugged Jennifer tightly.

"Mom--"

Kathy left the ward till that evening. It was not far from the People's Hospital. Kathy planned back to handle some tasks.

Kathy left the hospital. Only few people were on the street at this time. Kathy felt down as if she had lost her mind.

The red light on traffic light was flashing at a short distance. But Kathy did not see it clearly.

As soon as she stepped forward, Kathy was shocked by a screech. She turned her head rigidly. A black car stopped in front of her in less than half a meter away.

Kathy was so frightened and fell to the ground.

She took a deep breath. Kathy saw a pair of men's shoes in front of her and they looked familiar. Kathy raised her head slowly.

Joseph's handsome face looked like a god in the dark night.

Joseph had already picked Kathy up horizontally before she recovered. Then he put her into the driver's seat roughly.

He looked extremely serious and his face darkened. He looked at Kathy with intimidating anger.

Kathy did not dare to recall what had happened just now. If ... he did not stop the car in time, then...

Kathy's tears suddenly ran down her cheeks. She knocked on her head hard until Joseph grabbed her wrist.

"Stop it."

"It's none of your business!" Kathy glared at him and tried to push him away.

However, Joseph held her tightly. His breath was filled with his smell which Kathy was infatuated with, yet also resisted.

"Why didn't you pay attention to the traffic lights?" He pinched her chin and his eyes were dark.

It had been three years since Kathy had seen him so angry.

She was suddenly in a daze.

"I did." Kathy muttered.

She was a little afraid of Joseph now.

"And you still crossed the road even you did?" Kathy could see panic and fear flashed in Joseph's eyes.

Joseph could not image what would happen if he hadn't slowed down the car!

What a stupid woman!

"I made a mistake." She argued in a low voice.

Joseph was angrier. Looking at her small face with wronged and helpless look, Joseph kissed Kathy on her cold lips suddenly. Kathy could hardly grasp for breath!
