My Sweetheart novel Chapter 519

"Why are you here?" Kathy looked at him in surprise.

Joseph should go to work today. Normally, he would only be free at night.

"I'm here to pick you up." Joseph clenched her small hand with his big palm.

"The driver has been waiting. I'll go back after the stroll." Kathy cuddled up to him.

Not far away, Reece stared at them with cold eyes.

Joseph saw him as well. He frowned slightly and looked at Kathy. "What did you and Reece talk about just now?"

He had seen them talking when he came over.

"He said my mentor would treat us to dinner tomorrow. The time is being discussed in our group chat."

"Where?"

"River Hotel. It is right across the school."

The next day, Kathy came to the dinner party a little early, but Reece beat her to it.

Kathy picked the farthest position from him. He coldly curled his lips and said, "There's no need to avoid me. I don't bite."

"That remains to be seen," Kathy muttered.

In her eyes, Reece was a wolf.

Not long after, the mentor Dona and her four students also came. Reece was her only doctoral candidate, and all the other students were grad students.

Kathy was a transfer student. Her classmates and the mentor were already close, but she was not sociable, so she rarely spoke during dinner.

However, Dona was impressed with her. She showed admiration when she talked to Kathy, and Kathy loosened up a bit.

Dona stopped the manager when he came to ask if it was time to serve the dishes.

"Who else is coming?" Reece frowned.

"You'll know soon. He's a big wheel," Dona smiled.

Reece had followed Dona since he was a graduate student. He had never heard her call someone a big wheel.

Ten minutes later, the big shot finally showed up in everyone's expectation.

The door was pushed open, and the man in white shirt and black pants was handsome, elegant, and noble.

Joseph?

Kathy was dumbfounded. Why didn't she know her boyfriend would come...?

"I believe you don't need my introduction. This is Professor Joseph."

There was only one empty seat beside Kathy on the table. So, Joseph sat in there.

Kathy was uncomfortable. When she had told him about this dinner last night, he hadn’t mentioned he would show up.

The other students were naturally excited about Joseph's arrival. This leading figure in the medical field was welcome everywhere.

"Professor Joseph and I were classmates. He skipped several grades. He was a genius in the class," Dona praised in envy.

"You were not bad either. Only you have beaten me in the exams." Joseph was humble and polite.

"If you hadn't been the first place nearly every time, I would have been the best." Dona shook her head helplessly.

However, she didn't feel wronged to lose to Joseph.

Kathy was moping and looking down, and Reece was no longer cheerful, too. Joseph and Dona were chatting about the past, and the other students asked Joseph all sorts of questions.

Halfway through, Kathy went to the bathroom.

She had not known Joseph and Professor Zane knew each other, but now, she felt she had been kept in the dark.

After washing her face, she calmed down and walked out, only to bump into Joseph.

Her face dulled, and she ignored him.
