My Sweetheart novel Chapter 386

Kathy hugged her mother gently and tried to comfort her. She asked concerningly, “Mom, are you hurt?”

“Billy still doesn’t dare to hurt me, but you…” Jennifer shook her head.

“I’m fine.”

Kathy was going to go back to the university, but Jennifer’s emotion wasn’t very stable right now. She decided to accompany Jennifer back to Booth’s old castle first.

Bertie was also accompanying them the whole time.

“The Hilton group is now hanging by a thread and mom can’t control Billy anymore. You should avoid meeting him for the time being,” said Jennifer.

Jennifer knew that Bertie had already sent some people to protect Kathy and hence she felt more assured.

Kathy nodded, “I know.”

“I will also send some people to track Billy’s whereabouts, Mrs. Booth. I won’t let him hurt Kathy,” said Bertie with his deep voice.

“Thank you, Bertie.”

At Joseph’s group.

John handed Kathy’s medical report to Joseph.

“Mr. Joseph, I swapped the medical report beforehand.”

“Okay.”

Joseph answered indifferently and took the report from John’s hand.

Kathy did a brain CT scan during the checkup. He took out the CT image and took a good look at it. The expression on his face turned darker and darker.

“Who was the surgeon that did the surgery on the day of the accident?”

“I’ll go check.”

“No need, I’ll go to the hospital right now.”

He took long strides and quickly left after finishing his sentence.

On the way, John had found the list of the doctors that did Kathy’s surgery on the day of the accident. Joseph went up directly to the office when he got to the hospital.

Even though he wasn’t a doctor anymore, but in the medical field, his skills were top-notch, and no one could surpass him.

John waited worriedly outside. Finally, after an hour, Joseph walked out with the doctor who oversaw the surgery that day.

“Do you have a cigarette?” asked Joseph.

This was the first time his boss asked such a question.

Joseph wasn’t addicted to smoking and usually only had the cigarette in his mouth. He never actually smoked them.

John thought that maybe it was the same this time around. But to his surprise, Joseph started smoking the cigarette.

His expression was darker and sombre than ever

There was also a hint of sadness and agony on his face.

John thought his eyes were playing tricks on him… But it was too real.

He instinctively moved to the side. Did something actually happen to Miss Kathy?

Otherwise, his boss wouldn’t have switched her report into another one.

Recently, the Hilton group introduced a new medicine “LT” into the market and their sales skyrocketed. They took over some of Joseph’s group’s market and managed to avoid the crisis.

Still, they were facing more than one problem right now.

Because of the problems from before, there was a large expenditure, and their funding was slowly depleting. They had to raise some money through financing, otherwise, the Hilton group wouldn’t last much longer.

Billy went to the Booth group after his meeting.

He couldn’t see Jennifer and so he waited downstairs.

It was already nighttime when Jennifer finally left the Booth group.

She saw Billy and her gentle expression turned darker.

“You still have the guts to come and see me?” said Jennifer, her tone of voice was frigid.

“Mom, I was wrong.” Billy didn’t sound as arrogant as he was before anymore.

If he lost the Hilton group, he would lose everything.

“Billy, I know you want me to help you, but that’s impossible.” Jennifer ignored him and left the Booth group.

Though Billy kept following her, he even stopped in front of her car to halt her in her tracks.

The driver stepped on the brakes abruptly and looked at Jennifer helplessly, “Miss Booth, Mr. Hilton is blocking the road…”

There was nothing Jennifer could do but to get off the car. She looked at Billy and felt a bit sorry for him.
