My Sweetheart novel Chapter 68

Joseph was sent to the emergency room, Kathy was sitting outside and Alexia came over quickly.

“Kathy, what happened?”

Kathy looked up, there’s still tears stain on her cheeks, she hugged Alexia, “Sammy hijacked me, after that Joseph came and he was stabbed…”

“Sammy? Peter’s mother? That woman is crazy!” Alexia shouted in rage.

“Champs’ family is really one troublemaker after another, luckily you’re fine.” Alexia was relieved to see her safe and sound.

“But, Joseph…” Kathy looked at the emergency room, she was worried about Joseph’s hand, his hand was important, he needed his hand to hold the scalpel, he couldn’t risk it.

“He will also be fine. Kathy, we can’t let this matter slipped away easily, the Champs family was too over!” Alexia said indignantly.

Kathy nodded, but now all her mind was fully occupied by Joseph, she would let the police to handle Sammy.

After half an hour, Joseph came out with his hand wrapping with bandage, fortunately the wound wasn’t deep enough to damage the nerves in his hand, but he won’t be able to move around freely in a month.

Kathy’s face was pale. She was holding Joseph’s hand, and her back was sweating from fear.

“Fortunately…it’s fine.” She murmured.

Joseph was calm as usual, but looking at the worried look on Kathy’s face, he hugged her tightly.

“Don’t cry, I feel like kissing when you cry.” His eyes were blazing.

Kathy was stunned.

This man was still flirting with her at this time.

“Do you need to be hospitalized? I’ll go get the medicine.” Kathy took the bill.

“Mr Joseph doesn’t need to be hospitalized, but he’ll need to come over to change his bandage every day for a week.” The doctor instructed.

Kathy listened carefully and wrote it down.

Sammy was temporarily under arrest and Kathy had to go to the police station to provide her testimony.

“I’ll go with you.” Joseph said in a deep voice.

“You go home first, the doctor said you need more rest, so don’t run around.” Kathy pushed him into the car. “Alexia will go with me.”

Joseph frowned and eventually agreed.

Kathy and Alexia arrived at the police station, and so did Peter.

“Can I bail out my mum first?” Peter asked.

“Considering the suspect’s current mental state, she cannot be released on bail for now.”

Peter’s face sank, he walked towards Kathy who had done recording her testimony.

“Kathy, my mum took good care of you back then, could you please don’t sue her?” Peter’s voice was a bit fatigue.

He already had a lot of things to deal with and now Sammy was causing him this kind of trouble.

“She’s now threatening my life.” Kathy said it indifferently.

“She’s did it out of impulse, I promise there won’t be a next time.” Peter’s gaze showed his pleading.

“I need to think about it.”

Kathy wanted to seek for Joseph’s advice.

“If you drop the charges, I’m willing to make compensation.”

Kathy smiled coldly, “There are many things that can’t be solved by money.”

What Peter currently lacked of wasn’t money but his conscience.

Peter clenched his fist, the hatred under his eyes gradually surfaced when Kathy walked away.

“Kathy, did the scum do anything to you?” Alexia was worried when she saw them talking.

Kathy shook her head, “We are at the police station. What else he can do?”

“That’s good, don’t listen to him, listen to Joseph if you want to.”

Kathy laughed and left the police station. A car stopped in front of the entrance and Herbert came down.

Annoying people kept showing up one after another.

Kathy’s expression reflected her impatience.

“Kathy.”Herbert called her.

“What’s up?” Kathy’s face was deadly cold.

“Are you revenging on me?” Herbert confronted her.

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

“You held a grudge against me when I stole Peter away from you back then. That’s why now you seduce him and frame the Herbert group. Peter didn’t give you a damn so now you changed your target to Auntie Champs…”

“Fantastic imagination, it would be a waste if you don’t become a screenwriter.” Kathy interrupted her words coldly.

This woman got better in talking black into white.

“Am I wrong? Kathy, you’re such a bitch! You had already married to Joseph but still pestering my fiancé.” Herbert poured her anger towards Kathy.

“Herbert, mind your words and please look after you fiancé, I will let the police to deal with it if he harasses me again.”

“Stop right there, Kathy. If it wasn’t you, Peter and I got would have been married long time ago…”

Herbert suddenly grabbed Kathy when he saw Peter walking out. Kathy was displeased and frowned, she tried to pull Herbert away.

She didn’t push her hard as she knew that Herbert was pregnant.

However, Herbert pretended to fall backwards and Peter immediately ran over and held her up.

“Kathy, what the heck are you doing!” Peter scolded.

Kathy frowned, this woman was clearly trying to set her up.

“I didn’t do anything!” Kathy said and walked away.

These two people were really a pain in the eyes.

Herbert hugged Peter and sobbed, “Peter, look at Kathy, how did she become like this? Is she jealous of our baby?”

“Good girl, it’s fine, I won’t let her hurt you.”

Sitting in the car, looking at the intimate interaction between Peter and Herbert, Kathy rolled her eyes. She felt that she was so ridiculous back then when she was so eager to get Peter back to her when he cheated on her. It was so fortunate that Peter kept hurting her and let him see his true face.

Back to the old mansion, Kathy saw Joseph right after she got down from the car.

“Why don’t you rest inside?” Kathy was a little mad.

“I’m waiting for you.” Joseph rubbed her head and held her hand.

Kathy shivered, looking at their hands holding, her anger vanished, her heart was overloaded with sweetness.

Joseph was resting in the bedroom, and Kathy stayed by her side to take care of him as she’s worried.

Joseph had made an appointment with the lawyer in the evening, he asked whether Kathy wanted to sue Sammy.

She looked at Joseph, “What do you think?”

Joseph sat on the sofa, wearing a simple navy blue shirt. His intense aura was somehow suppressed, but when he squinted his eyes, his fearful aura revealed.

“What did the other party say?” He asked the lawyer.

“The Champs family asked for a compensation of one million dollars.”

“If you don’t feel like to go to the court, we’ll deal with it softly.”Joseph looked at Kathy.

Despite of his words, Kathy couldn’t feel any softness from Joseph’s tone.

It was true that she didn’t want to make a big deal out of it and wanted to keep things peaceful.

But at the same time she’s afraid that the same things will recur.

“Okay, do it softly.” Kathy replied after a while.

“Make them pay 10 million as compensation, the Champs family had to apologize publicly.” Joseph instructed.

“Peter has high pride, so he probably won’t agree to apologize.” Kathy said.

“Seems like you know him well.” Joseph’s tone suddenly grew a little colder.

Kathy smiled embarrassedly and quickly sugar-coated her words, “No, I don’t want to know him well, I only want to know you well.”
