My Sweetheart novel Chapter 209

In the afternoon, Kathy returned to NCHV Medical Company. She wanted to ask for leave, and she had to apply to Johnson personally.

Johnson was about to sign his name, but he noticed Kathy’s reason for asking for leave: To attend a friend’s wedding.

“Which friend?” he asked casually.

Kathy frowned and answered, “Alexia.”

Sure enough, Johnson’s face darkened. Johnson signed on the note and said indifferently, “Give my congratulations to her.”

Kathy was impassive. She got out Johnson’s office and Lincoln happened to come up.

“Kathy, come with me to the Joseph’s Group.” Seeing Kathy, Lincoln was like to see a savior.

Kathy was confused and Lincoln dragged her into the elevator.

“Mr. Fletcher, what happened?” Kathy frowned. Although Lincoln appeared to be cynical, he had always been calm in his handling of affairs. It was almost rare to see him be anxious.

“Did you quarrel with Joseph?” Lincoln did not answer, but asked instead.

Kathy was dumb, thinking of Joseph’s unhappy expression this morning. He must be angry…

Lincoln understood when he saw Kathy’s expression.

He rubbed his forehead between his eyebrows irritably. When had Joseph’s temper been affected by a woman?

“Probably... No, I didn’t.” Kathy shook her head.

Joseph would never quarrel with her.

“You must have had a quarrel with him. He is a stern-faced despot in the company today. I can’t calm him down, and the whole company will suffer.”

“Since you can’t calm him down, I can’t either.” Kathy frowned.

“Yes, you can! Only you can do it.” Lincoln said confidently.

“I’m still at work...” Kathy didn’t want to see Joseph right now.

Lincoln thought for a while. Then he directly dragged Kathy into Johnson’s office and said to Johnson, “I’ll take Kathy out for half a day!”

Johnson nodded abstractedly. He was thinking something.

Lincoln pushed Kathy into a sports car, and then he drove the car too fast that Kathy went deathly pale in fear.

“Mr. Fletcher, slow down…” Kathy said tensely.

Lincoln glanced sideways at her and said, “I can’t slow down.”

Finally, in less than fifteen minutes, Lincoln braked the car and stopped it at the entrance of Joseph’s Group’s building. Kathy immediately got off the car. Only then did she feel much better.

“What did Joseph do to you?” Kathy asked in a deep voice.

Why was Lincoln so anxious?

“He fired two senior executives and didn’t speak much all day. Anyway, he rejected all the proposals. If he continues, the company will be in death.”

Kathy rolled her eyes and said, “These are your company’s internal affairs.”

“He’s too abnormal today.” Lincoln had known Joseph for many years and he knew the latter’s personality very well.

Although Joseph was strict on business, he had never been so harsh.

Unless, he was in a really bad mood.

“Mr. Fletcher, I think I will only push the Joseph’s Group into the hell.” Kathy hesitated.

She and Joseph had an unpleasant conversation this morning. If Joseph saw her, she was afraid that he would be angrier.

“Make a last-ditch effort, OK?” Lincoln pushed Kathy forward authoritatively.

On the way, Kathy naturally attracted quite a bit of attention as she walked with Lincoln.

She lowered her head, thinking of Joseph’s stern-faced in the morning.

Why was he angry?

Was it because she didn’t ask him to go to Alexia’s wedding with her?

Kathy couldn’t figure out the reason.

As they reached the top floor, a senior executive got out the CEO’s office. Apparently he was frustrated.
