My Sweetheart

Chapter 631: You Need Me

Kathy gaped. When she came back to her senses, Joseph’s scent had already fulfilled her mouth.

His kiss was aggressive and overbearing, and she couldn’t escape at all.

His enlarged face was attached to her. As soon Kathy finally returned to her senses, she pushed him away.

However, her strength couldn’t be compared to his. Soon, the honks sounded behind their car, so harsh and unpleasant to hear.

“Joseph, are you nuts?” Kathy glared at him in anger.

The man’s face was still tightened. He gazed at her gloomily.

He helped her fasten the seat belt and said in an ordering tone, “Sit still.”

“No. I want to get off.” Kathy wanted to pull away from the seat belt. However, Joseph had already stepped on the gas fiercely. The car roared away.

“I don’t live in this neighborhood!” Noticing that Joseph wasn’t driving to the Bridges House, Kathy looked at him.

Joseph kept silent. Until half an hour later, the car stopped in front of an apartment.

Joseph pushed the door open and got off, but Kathy was motionless for a long while.

She roughly figured out that it was Joseph’s apartment, wondering why he had brought her here.

Probably Zofia was also staying here, wasn’t she?

At the thought of it, Kathy didn’t want to move at all.

Joseph was running out of patience. He opened the door of the passenger seat, dragging Kathy out of his car directly.

“Do you want me to carry you in?” He squinted dangerously, emanating a frightening aura.

“Isn’t Miss Marshall home?” Kathy asked ironically.

“No worries. She doesn’t stay here.” Joseph curled up his lips into a rare smile.

However, this smile looked quite horrible in Kathy’s eyes.

“I’ll take a taxi and go home.” Kathy turned away.

Joseph seemed to have sensed her movements already. He easily grabbed her wrist. Next second, he carried her in his arms directly.

The chill raised from her ankles. Kathy shivered and held Joseph.

“Stay still.” His words were full of warnings.

Kathy indeed stayed still because her knees hurt. She got the scratches when falling on the ground just now.

Joseph stayed on the top floor. The decoration inside his apartment was neat and luxurious.

As soon as he put her on the sofa, Kathy immediately picked up a cushion and held it.

It seemed that it would bring her a sense of security in this way.

Watching her movement, Joseph had an unconcealed ironic smile mocking at her being childish.

“Why did you take me up here?” Kathy mumbled.

They were the only two in this apartment, and they were divorced.

“Apply the medicine for you.”

As he finished speaking, Joseph came over with a first-aid kit.

Kathy subconsciously huddled up her legs, but Joseph grabbed her ankle easily.

Feeling the cold spreading from her ankle, Kathy trembled.

Looking at Joseph’s movements, she couldn’t help blushing.

“I can do it myself.”

She wanted to grab the Q-tip, but Joseph waved her hand away. He said in a deep and cold voice, “If you move again, I’ll tie up your hands.”

Kathy was speechless.

“Who do you think you are? I dare you to do anything you want to me!” said Kathy unhappily.

She truly hated Joseph when he behaved that she couldn’t do anything to him.

“Kathy, do you think I don’t have that capability?” Joseph suddenly raised his sharp eyes.

Kathy didn’t understand the complicated feelings surging in his eyes.

“I don’t know what you are talking about.” She looked away.

“All people in town knew what was going on with Booth Group. Jennifer Booth is sick in the hospital. Reece Bridges is in charge of Bridges Group but he can’t help. Can you save Booth Group by yourself?” Each of Joseph’s words poked t Kathy’s sore spot.

She stiffed. She had never expected that Joseph would know all the details.

“You need me, Kathy. Is it so difficult for you to admit it?” He disinfected her wound and put the band- aid on it. Then he leaned over and held Kathy in his arms.

She closed her eyes tightly, her clenched fists were trembling.

“I don’t need you,” Kathy answered in a light tone, forcing herself to look away.

She wouldn’t beg Joseph for help.

“You’ve already owed a favor when we were in Europe long ago, haven’t you?”

Kathy slightly looked up, her eyes becoming a bit tearful.

Indeed. Without Joseph, she might not be able to come back at all.

He helped her to board the plane.

“That’s why I don’t want to owe your favors anymore.”

“We can talk about the conditions.” Joseph slightly pushed her away and sat straight.

His aggressive aura was farther away from her, but Kathy couldn’t breathe a sigh of relief.

She kept silent, thinking about her current situation. It was true that if Joseph could help her, Booth Group would still have a favorable turn.

Besides, Reed Bridges had become more powerful and seldom people could be against him. However, Joseph had such an ability, which Kathy knew clearly.

“What do you want?” she murmured.

She didn’t think that she could have any right to negotiate the conditions with Joseph.

“Don’t you always know what I want?” His eyes had the unconcealed desire of possession to her.

He wanted her.

Kathy understood his implication in his eyes.

She stiffed, her face even becoming pale.

“No...” She almost stood up immediately, looking panicked.

How could she...

“Joseph, don’t you already have Zofia Marshall? Besides, you have a child with her. Do you want me to be your mistress?” Kathy’s tone was cold and horrified.

She believed that Joseph was out of his mind... He must be insane.

However, the man in front of her still remained indifferent as if he would still be the same when the end of the world approached.

Kathy hoped that she had misunderstood him.

Upon hearing her words, Joseph slightly frowned. A child?

Suddenly he had thought of something. Looking at Kathy, he asked, “Don’t you accept it?” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“No, I don’t!” Kathy answered and turned around to twist the doorknob.

She couldn’t continue staying with Joseph, the madman, in the same space.

Joseph gazed at her deeply without stopping her.

A child...

He chuckled.

Walking into the elevator, Kathy held the wall, almost losing her balance.

She decided not to get in touch with Joseph anymore.

When reaching the first floor, Kathy rushed out. Without noticing a strong and tall figure nearby, she bumped into the man’s arms.

“I’m sorry.” She kept lowering her head and didn’t notice who he was.

However, she couldn’t push away the man. When she raised her head, she saw Jaydon’s handsome face. She was taken aback.

Her eyes were reddened and her clothes were dusty. Her hair was also messy. She looked so miserable.

Jaydon had seen her current look.

“Why... why are you here?” Kathy asked in embarrassment.

“I came to Dr. Joseph for some business.” Jaydon heaved a sigh deeply. He hadn’t expected to see Kathy running out.

It was obvious that she had just left Joseph’s apartment.

At the thought of it, he was supposed to be anger.

However, when he noticed how miserable she looked, the anger in his chest faded away.
