My Sweetheart novel Chapter 185

The fans around her gazed at her like they wanted to kill her.

Kathy involuntarily leaned against his chest and kept denying, “You’re just overthinking.”

Joseph was smiling so seductively that he could attract anyone in an instant.

Back at Joseph Bay, Joseph had sent a servant to prepare dinner, but the food was already cold when they arrived since his flight was delayed.

Kathy was heating the food when she thought about today's matter, and so she asked Joseph,

“Does Johnson have a fiancée?”

Joseph and Johnson had a good relation, so he should know, right?

He paused for a moment before coming in and hugged Kathy from the back.

With his jaw on her shoulder, he spoke with a low and deep voice, “Yeah.”

Kathy frowned unhappily, “As expected…”

“But he still teases other women.”, said Kathy in an angry tone.

She knew that Alexia must be heartbroken at that time. Did she even know that Johnson had a fiancée?

Joseph frowned because Johnson's private was too complicated. Even though they’re friends, he had never interfered.

However, he also had his difficulties.

“What you see and hear is not always true.” he held her face.

His gaze was deep when the tip of his fingers caressed her cheek.

“So, is Johnson trustworthy?” Kathy asked.

She understood how Alexia loved Johnson as they had been friends for years. On the other hand, she did not want her to be together with a scumbag.

Subconsciously, she believed that those who could be close to Joseph would generally have good morals.

However, she couldn’t help feeling suspicious with all the gossips before her eyes.

“It depends on who his opponent is, if it is someone from the business world then it is necessary for him to do some tricks”, said Joseph ambiguously.

Kathy couldn't help staring at him, she just felt that Joseph didn't want to tell her about it.

She went with another question, “Is Johnson going to marry his fiancée?”

“Why do you care about him so much! Don't you want to care about me?” Joseph said that with a hint of jealousy in his voice.

Kathie couldn't help blushing and looked up at his profound eyes. She subconsciously asked, “Which part of you would need my care?”

Joseph looked a bit gloomy, “I need your care for everything.”

Kathy frowned, his deep and vast eyes had always enchanted her.

His lips slowly approached hers while shrouding her with his familiar masculine aura. In the blink of an eye, he took her breath away.

Their surroundings was so quiet, and the only thing they could hear was each other's heartbeat. Kathy took the initiative to tiptoe and hug Joseph.

She wanted to be more intimate with him.

His palm was on her back and it kept on reaching deeper and deeper. He couldn’t stop himself as her sweetness was like a drug to him.

It was not until the beep from the microwave behind her that she came back to her senses.

“Dinner is ready!”

Joseph held the back of her head, and kissed her once again before letting her go in satisfaction.

“You should not care about other men anymore, okay?” he said that with a hoarse voice.

The darkness before him expanded.

Kathy pouted but she felt very sweet at heart.

“I am just worried about Alexia.” she took the food out while frowning.

“Johnson knows his limits.” Joseph stroked her head fondly.

However, Kathy could not calm down and so she called Alexia after dinner. This time, Alexis finally answered the phone.

“Kathy, are you okay?”

“Why wouldn't I be okay?” once she said this, her tears fell down uncontrollably.

How could she be good? It seemed that the entire world knew about Johnson's fiancée, but she was the only one who was foolishly deceived.

“You are at home, aren't you? I’ll go and accompany you...” Kathy frowned.

She went to change her clothes.

“These few days, I won’t be in City N. Kathy, I need some time alone, don’t look for me.” Alexia sniffed.

As soon as she completed her sentence, she hung up the phone.

When Kathy tried to call her again, her phone was already turned off.

The last time Alexia was in such an unusual mood, it was when her brother passed away in an air crash 5 years ago. She had cut off every way to contact he and disappeared for a whole month.

Kathy was afraid that such a thing would happen again. Her face was already pale when she turned around.

Joseph had taken a shower and came out, water was still dripping from his well-built chest. The sapphire blue bathrobe was unable to cover his perfect body.

On the other hand, Kathy was not in the mood to admire it.

She grabbed his arms and said, “Give me Johnson's phone number.”

If something happened to Kathy, she would not let that scumbag go!

Joseph knitted his brows and stroked her hair, “Don't make trouble.”

Kathy glared at him and said, “I am not making trouble! I just don't know where Alexia is and I am worried that something bad would happen to her.”

Joseph lowered his eyes, after awhile, he found Joseph’s number.

Kathy called him in no time.

“Joseph, you've just called me. I am with Lincoln in the club now, you want to come over?”

“Johnson, Alexia went missing.”, she took a deep breath.

Johnson paused for a minute as he didn't expect that it was Kathy who called him. He said in a cold voice, “You are her friend, aren't you? It's useless for you to tell me about that.”

“You are her boyfriend and you don't know her whereabouts?” Kathy said that in a quizzical tone.

Johnson in a low voice, “We just have a superior-inferior relationship.”

“You... Alexia was so blind! How could she fall for you?” she complained and threw her phone away.

“Joseph, you friend has really gone too far!”, Kathy couldn't glaring at him.

Joseph paused for a moment and said, “Kathy, are you venting your anger on me?”

Kathy was struck dumb, it seemed so.

“Forget it, it's okay.” She covered herself tightly with the blanket. She could only send Alexia a message to console her.

Joseph frowned. His tall figure approached and held her in his arms before kissing her forehead. “You will see her tomorrow because she’s in charge of the NCHV Medical Company news conference tomorrow, she can't be absent.”

Kathy stayed silent. She knew that if Alexia did not want to show up, nothing could make her to.

“She is completely out of reach now.” she murmured.

“I am not sure what Johnson would do if she was absent” Joseph’s voice sounded cold.

Afterwards, he went to his study and called Johnson not long after.

“Where’s Kathy?” he sounded rather anxious.

Joseph's had always sounded kind and gentle but it was also cold and stern, “She’s asleep, why are you looking for my wife in the middle of the night?”

Johnson choked for a while and said, “I can't find Alexia.”

“Serve you right.” He only said that and was about to hang up.

Johnson stopped him immediately, “Joseph, don't be like that! I know I am not a man of character but I didn’t mean to hurt her.”

“Hmm...”, he was still cold.

“All right, I am not going to talk about my private with a good guy like you, let's just talk about business. Alexia is the general manager of MT Medicine’s marketing department so she is expected to talk to the journalists but she is out of reach now so I could only call your wife.”

Joseph’s expression became gloomy when he said, “Then, just do it on your own.”
