My Sweetheart novel Chapter 167

Edith was surprised, but she quickly regained her composure, "Yes Mr. Joseph, I'll go get ready immediately."

Lincoln got closer after Edith left, "What are you doing? Edith is not just another woman."

"And?" Joseph answered lazily while he laid his back on the chair, his tone frigid.

"You should bring Kathy along instead! The media will definitely cause gossip and rumours if you make Edith accompany you tonight!" Lincoln reminded him.

The reporters had written articles about Joseph and Edith being an item after they attended the Joseph's Group conference together last time, having Edith with him tonight would only make the rumours spread even more.

Though, what happened would sit well with Edith.

"They can write whatever they want," Joseph didn't care.

Lincoln was boiling with anger, he thought Joseph and Kathy were madly in love but that didn't seem to be the case.

Kathy was still working in the evening as she received a call from Alexia.

"Kathy, why aren't you at the Joseph's Group banquet?"

Alexia attended the banquet with Johnson, she found out that Kathy was absent and made a call nervously.

"I have to work overtime tonight," Kathy frowned.

"It's not the time for overtime! Right now, Joseph is hand in hand with a coquettish woman..."

Kathy frowned harder, a coquettish woman?

She immediately thought of Edith.

"Well, I rejected Joseph because we have a business trip tomorrow, I'm still preparing the documents."

"Kathy, I'm going to yank you here right now! I can't stand it anymore, the woman is acting as if she is the host of the banquet...."

Alexia's phone was suddenly taken away by Johnson.

She glared at him furiously, he then said, "It's none of your business, don't be nosy."

"Kathy is my best friend, how can I not be nosy!"

"Edith is just accompanying him, you're thinking too much."

"No, Joseph is married, how can he have another female companion?"

Johnson grimaced, he put her phone in his pocket, "Stop making a fuss or I'll send you away."

Alexia was stunned by his demeanour, she wanted to stay back and spy on Joseph, hence she shut her mouth.

It was 8 pm at night at the NCHV Medical Company, Kathy packed up and was ready to leave. Suddenly, she got a notification on her phone.

It was a picture from Alexia, in the picture Edith was hand in hand with Joseph, talking to the guests, Edith was so close to Joseph it seemed like her whole body was in his arms.

Kathy's face turned sour, she told herself that she didn't care but her heart was aching.

"Kathy, MH Hotel, come quick and catch him in the act!"

When Kathy came to her senses, she was already standing in front of MH Hotel.

She did say that she wasn't going to come.

She stood still at the entrance for some time, suddenly a familiar voice came from behind.

"Mrs. Joseph, why are you standing here all alone," Billy inched closer.

"Nothing much," Kathy turned around and was going to leave after answering him.

But Billy blocked her way, he raised his brow and asked, "I remember hearing that the Joseph's Group banquet is going on right now in there. You are Mrs. Joseph if I'm not mistaken, why are you not in there?"

Kathy stayed silent, her gaze frosty.

"It's none of your business, Mr. Hilton, if I'm in there or not, " Kathy replied coldly.
