My Sweetheart novel Chapter 246

“Well, even I couldn’t do anything about Joseph. The Joseph family is a family of mystery.”

“Can you tell me what you know about the Joseph family?” asked Kathy.

She wanted to know more about the man she married.

“I don’t know much, I got all my information from Lincoln. They started out in country C and practically monopolized the resources of that country. But they were very quiet about it and nobody knew about it. Lincoln told me that Joseph was fighting someone when he first saw Joseph.”

“He was in a fight?”

Kathy was taken aback, she couldn’t imagine the gentle and elegant Joseph would’ve experienced something like that.

Sue nodded, “Joseph was only 12 back then, the person he was fighting in the hotel was his biological father. Lincoln was in the hotel at that time and that was how they got to know each other. In our impression, Joseph was always cold and merciless. I only realized how much he had changed when I came back here and saw him again.”

Kathy grimaced, she didn’t dare to imagine the scene that Sue had just described to her. Why did Joseph do that?

Maybe because he was disappointed.

“I don’t know much, maybe I’ll go talk gossip with Lincoln again when I’m free. But maybe I don’t have the chance anymore.” Sue let out a long sigh.

She had a very charming expression on her face whenever she mentioned Lincoln.

But at the same time, she looked very dejected.

“Sue, I will accept everything if he tells me the truth. Only if he is willing to tell me the truth,” said Kathy in a soft voice.

Just when would he finally open up to her?

Suddenly, a group of more than ten men rushed into the shopping centre from outside, they looked like bodyguards. Sue looked down from the top floor, she was obviously flustered.

Those men were people working under her grandfather, what business would they possibly have here?

“Kathy, let’s go that way.” Sue pulled Kathy and started running away.

Kathy looked behind and the men were chasing after them, she was shocked.

She followed Sue and ran through the top floor, there was another shopping centre on the opposite of the building.

But they couldn’t make it in time.

The bodyguards were swift, Sue and Kathy were surrounded on the attic in no time.

“Miss, the master orders you to return immediately.”

Sue bit down hard on her lips, she was still looking for a way to escape.

But the only thing she could do right now was to jump off the building.

And she didn’t have the guts.

“Sue, who are these people?” asked Kathy worriedly.

“They are my grandfather’s men, the person who holds the power in the Fletcher family. Quick, contact Lincoln for me.”

She knew that there was no way that she could escape.

Kathy quickly pulled out her phone seeing Sue being taken away, but she then realized that she didn’t have Lincoln’s number.

She needed to contact Joseph first.

Kathy’s hand trembled, they had not talked for a week.

But Sue’s safety was in question, she shouldn’t hesitate.

The call went through, and Kathy could hear Joseph’s voice.

“Mrs. Joseph.” He sounded extremely tired.

Kathy felt her heart throbbed.

She knew that Joseph was a hard worker and he probably worked himself to death.

She wondered if he rested properly without her being by his side.

“I…I need to ask you something.”

“Say it.” He had expected this, Kathy wouldn’t take the initiative to call him without a reason.

“I need Mr. Fletcher’s contact, Sue is taken away.”

Joseph frowned, “I’ll let him know about this.”

“Alright.”

“Anything else?” asked Joseph.

“No.”

“Are you outside?” asked Joseph as he heard loud noises.

“Yeah.”

“I’ll be back next week.”

“Okay.”

Joseph frowned again, did Kathy really have nothing to say to him?

“I’m going to hang up.” It was getting really awkward and Kathy quickly hung up the call.
