My Sweetheart novel Chapter 230

It was night now, but Joseph still didn’t come back.

Kathy received a phone call from Angela. Today’s headlines were all about NCHV Medical Company, so Angela inevitably saw it as well.

Besides, the news concerned Peter. Angela was even more worried.

“Kathy, do something happen to NCHV Medical Company?”

“Yes.” Kathy frowned.

For now, NCHV Medical Company was under investigation. The employees were notified of company’s decision that they can be on leave now.

The situation NCHV Medical Company faced now was even worse than last year when it was once on the verge of bankruptcy.

Kathy couldn’t help but feel a little guilty as she thought of the Lincoln’s angry face in the morning.

Perhaps, to revenge Kathy, Peter took advantage his mother’s death to fight with NCHV Medical Company.

“Does it mean that you are out of work?”

“Mom, don’t worry. I plan to pursue my postgraduate study, so I am prepared to resign.”

“Well, you’ve worked there for five years. It’s good to have such a sound job. Haven’t you given up the idea of postgraduate study? Why would you have that thought again? Take it easy, I would ask someone’s favor to give you a job…” Angela said worriedly.

Kathy frowned. Her mother’s thoughts were not unfamiliar to her. The job in NCHV Medical Company had little room for promotion in her eyes, but its merit was sound and riskless. Angela was satisfied with fact that Kathy could have this kind of work guarantee.

In Angela’s view, Kathy’s plan of postgraduate study at the cost of job was unrealistic.

Moreover, Kathy was already married. As Kathy had her family, she should set her family as the focus of her life.

“Mom, I’ve already decided and I won’t plan to have a new job now.” Her gentle tone carried a note of toughness.

Kathy rarely retorted Angela. In the past years, she always complied with Angela, but on the matter of her postgraduate study, her decision was unchangeable.

“No, you shall come back immediately. Does Dr. Joseph agree to this? You still do not consider having a baby this year. How old are you?”

Kathy was annoyed and quickly hung up the phone.

To have a children … was something not on her agenda.

Joseph didn’t return until midnight. Kathy comforted herself with words that everything was fine, but she couldn’t help but call him.

When Joseph saw Kathy’s call, it was an hour later. The meeting he had held just ended, but there were still a lot of things to be done.

Kathy’s phone was placed beside her ear, so she heard the call as soon as the phone buzzed. She pressed the answer button, but she was not awake from her sleep.

“Mrs. Joseph.” Joseph’s deep voice rang out.

“Oh.”

“You may sleep. I’ll come back to accompany you later.”

“How long do I have to wait?” Kathy opened her eyes. The room was completely dark. She felt lonely because Joseph was not around.

“You take a nap and I’ll be back.”

“Really?”

Kathy was very sleepy, but she had Joseph in her mind. She was half awake now.

“Yes.”

After heard Joseph’s words, Kathy was at ease. She then slid into sleep again. Her phone slipped from her hand, but she didn’t hang up the phone.

Joseph listened to the gentle and faint sleep breath coming from his phone, and then his thin lips curled up slightly.

At this moment, Lincoln knocked on the door and entered.

“The results from the hospital are out. The drugs Sammy Champs took before she died are indeed three types of pills we had developed. We have to await further results for more days.”

“I’m afraid NCHV Medical Company can’t wait any longer.” Lincoln’s expression was gloomy.

“Have you checked the specific evidence provided by Peter?”

“I have already sent someone to retrieve the medical records and prescription records. They are all about Sammy before she died. However, there is also a medical report that has been temporarily detained. I can’t check it.”

“Go and investigate these three types of pills in market now. The fake pills under our company’s name, abound in market, shall be weeded out altogether.”

“I see. However, NCHV Medical Company’s share price has slumped to the bottom. Our company’s reputation also had been harmed. Though, I had taken measures to filter out the criticism on the internet, yet, I’m afraid, our fame can’t be restored.”

“Hand over the evidence about Peter to the police. Let him be detained at least.” Joseph’s voice was extremely cold.
