"Then I'm really grateful to Maria. Reece has monopolized a large chunk of the overseas market recently. His capability does scare me to some extent." Quinn narrowed his eyes.
At the very least, he hadn't found any breakthrough to fight against the Bridges Group yet.
The two companies were on a par at the moment.
"But are you sure that Maria will help us?" Quinn asked worriedly.
"Ella's life is in my hands. What do you think? However, we do need a back-up plan. I'm very surprised too that she just gave it to me like this." Joseph said softly.
Originally, he wasn't in a hurry and planned to play with Reece slowly. But now, this game seemed to be getting pretty exciting.
The next day, Kathy only met Joseph in the afternoon.
"What happened yesterday?" She asked with concern.
Joseph frowned and said softly, "Mrs. Bridges sent Ella to Boston Hospital. Her condition is at stake."
Hearing the name Ella, Kathy inevitably furrowed her brows.
She had no good impression of this woman.
"So you're in charge of her now?"
"Yes."
"Alright then, does that mean you will spend less time in the university these days?" Kathy was somewhat disappointed.
"No, but I do have to shuttle between the hospital and the university."
Kathy pursed her lips and couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.
Joseph could see that and smiled helplessly, "You're not happy about this?"
"Nope."
There's nothing more important than human life. She wouldn't be angry on that matter.
It was just that she wasn't really feeling good.
"You can come to the hospital with me." Joseph curled his lips.
Kathy was his student, so there was no problem for her to study beside him.
Hearing this, Kathy's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
"Would I lie to you?" Joseph dotingly rubbed her hair.
The surprised look on Kathy's face did not last long. Ella hated her, and she also hated Ella.
If she went with him, Ella would probably start a commotion.
She didn't want to impinge on Joseph's work.
"Forget it." Kathy shook her head.
She didn't want to ask for trouble right now.
Joseph frowned, "This is my order."
If he left Kathy alone on campus, she would probably feel uneasy.
Kathy pouted, "You know Ella's condition right now. Are you sure I won't sting her?"
"I got it, Kathy." Joseph's voice was deep.
Kathy looked down and slowly nodded.
In the afternoon, Kathy followed Joseph to the hospital after class.
As soon as she followed him into the ward, Ella immediately noticed her.
"Why are you here?" Ella asked unhappily.
Kathy ignored her and only cooperated with Joseph quietly.
"Miss Bridges, you need to keep a good mood. Don't let your emotions fluctuate too much." Joseph frowned.
"Oh, but I don't want to see Kathy." Ella said somewhat angrily.
With Kathy here, she could not calm down...
"She's my student. If you don't want to see her, then I won't come here, either." Joseph's voice sounded a little perishing.
Ella immediately turned silent; but upset, she still kept her gaze on Kathy.
Kathy looked quite calm, though. Anyway, she only followed Joseph here to study. She was not concerned about other things.
Maria was outside when they came out of the ward. She saw Joseph and stepped forward, "When can my daughter have the surgery?"
"After three months."
"Can she make it through this period of time?"
