My Sweetheart novel Chapter 408

She bit her lip and mustered her courage; inside the office, Kathy saw a bear-shaped doll on the desk.

She recalled the same bear was on Ella’s shoulder bag.

A bitterness flashed by her eyes.

"Mr. Joseph, here is the report; if there is nothing else, I’ll take my leave now."

As soon as she said these words, she turned around to leave.

But Joseph was even quicker; he pressed on his remote and locked the door.

Kathy's face turned white as she heard the sound of the door lock.

"What are you doing?" She lost all politeness from a while ago.

In a commanding voice, Joseph said, "I promised you a make-up lesson; we’ll get started once I finish the matter on hand."

"No need, I can look over the course material by myself." Right now, she didn't want to be with him at all.

"Not up to you." Joseph said coldly.

"Mr. Joseph, are you biting off more than you can chew?" Kathy stared at him and mocked.

"We’re just teacher and student, isn't that what you said?" Joseph raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, but who knows what you’re thinking." Kathy whispered.

In a split second, he stood before her; he raised her chin and gazed deeply into her eyes.

"Do you want to know what I’m thinking?"

"No…"

Before she had a chance to finish, his kissed her lips, and pushed her words down her throat.

He…

She regained composure and smacked hard on his chest, trying to push him away.

But Joseph's strength was too great; Kathy couldn't move at all as he held her in his arms.

After a while, Joseph let go.

Kathy raised her hand and slapped Joseph with force. A flash of anger quickly ran by his eyes.

But he kept his temper.

Looking at the red palm shape on Joseph's face, she thought about how much force she must have put into this slap.

But Joseph didn't even say one word.

"Mr. Joseph, please keep your hands to yourself!"

"Keep my hands to myself?" Joseph squinted, the look in his eyes grew dimmer.

"You’re getting married soon," Kathy said sharply, "please, don't harass me again."

"Harass you?"

"Yes." Kathy nodded without a second thought.

He was quite intimate with Ella already, so why did he still harass her!

"So even if you flunk tests, you won’t come to me to make them up?" Joseph's voice sounded calm, and he asked in a plain voice.

"Yes!"

Even if she failed her exams, never did she want to be alone with Joseph again!

She had to stay away from him!

Joseph unlocked the door and looked on as Kathy fled out; there was a noticeable look of disappointment in his eyes.

Once Joseph got home, Veronica told him that Grandpa was angry with him, and that he would not attend Joseph’s wedding with Ella. The only in-law he would recognize for Joseph to marry was Kathy.

“Hm.” Joseph’s expression was calm.

Veronica looked at him and wanted to say something, but she didn’t.

Lately, his behavior has become increasingly hard to understand.

"Joseph, do you really plan to marry Ella?" After a long silence, she managed to ask.

"Wedding preparations are already underway." He frowned.

"You never even told me." Veronica said in a sullen voice.

"Don't fret over it." Joseph said.
