My Sweetheart novel Chapter 376

Kathy couldn’t convince her otherwise, but her friend’s concern made her feel better. After replying to her messages, she moved, and realized she felt quite tired. All she could do was lie there. Half an hour later, she didn’t see Zofia, but instead got a call from her. “Kathy, I can’t get in!”

“What?” Kathy didn’t understand.

“The hospital says it won’t receive me…”

Kathy was flummoxed. Could it be that private? “Why don’t you head back then, I’m really fine,” she said. She couldn’t go out and get Zofia.

“No. Is this hospital the Booth Group’s? I’ll have my brother think of something.” That said, she gave Bertie a call.

Bertie, hearing the name of the hospital, paled. The hospital rarely opened to outsiders. In fact, ordinary people could not get in. “That’s the Joseph Group’s private hospital.”

Stubbornly Zofia said, “Then I’ll go find Joseph!”

Bertie looked at the building. He’d just checked where Kathy had been admitted, and it wasn’t here. Joseph must have had her transferred. And no one was allowed in… what did he mean to do…

Zofia still wanted a way in. “Kathy said she was in an accident… she got surgery, it must be really serious, I’m so worried…”

“If you really want in, you’ll have to wait till evening and see if the guards relax a little.”

“What? We have to sneak in? I’ll go find Joseph right now,” she insisted.

“Joseph is inside, how will you get to him?” asked Bertie coldly.

Zofia was stunned.

Bertie said, “I’ll think of something.”

That entire day, Kathy was alone in her room. She hadn’t brought anything, only had her phone. She was so bored. But Zofia couldn’t get in and couldn’t bring her any books. How could the guards be so strict? When Joseph came, she had to ask, “They won’t allow visitors? Why am I here?” She’d just checked—this was a private hospital. They wouldn’t send a car crash victim here—unless she’d been transferred. She stared at Joseph uncertainly.

“I brought you here. For your own sake, you must recuperate in peace.”

Somewhat unhappily she said, “Zofia can’t get in…” How could her hospitalization be so completely controlled by him?

“Yes,” he said, bringing her dinner. But Kathy had no appetite, and ate little. “Don’t you feel any better?” he asked with concern.

She shook her head. It was too… sterile here. She felt she was in a cage, not a hospital. But Joseph stayed, so she said, “You can leave, I’ll sleep soon.”

“I’ll stay here until you are released.” He’d brought his laptop—clearly he intended to work here. Seeing his stern countenance, her heart sank. No one could enter, and only Joseph was with her… it seemed strange…

“Why did you have me transferred?” she asked. He wasn’t a family member, he didn’t have the authority.

“You need to recuperate in peace.”

“I can do that at other hospitals. It must be expensive here…” Looking at the fancy room, she knew her savings would not be enough…

“It’s free,” he said.
