Kathy pursed her lips and remained silent for a moment.
"I will arrange the transfer. Don't worry."
Finished speaking, she decided to see Joseph.
Watching Kathy leave, Sonny's eyes darkened with deep emotion.
It was rather late when Kathy arrived at Boston Hospital.
She got out of the taxi and went straight to Joseph's office.
Along the way, she was thinking about how to say it. She knew that Joseph might be angry, but Sonny was injured because of her, she could not stand by and do nothing.
She stopped at the office door, which was opened before Kathy had the time to knock on it.
She almost bumped into Joseph's arms before stabilizing her body.
Joseph asked with his usual lukewarm eyes, "You here for me?"
"Of course." Kathy muttered.
"Come in." Joseph turned around and returned into his office.
Kathy kept some distance from him. She looked at Joseph, and felt somewhat unfamiliar with him after only 24 hours.
Suddenly, Kathy couldn't find out anything to say.
"Is there anything?"
"I can't come to see you when everything is fine?" Kathy replied with more dissatisfaction.
"Of course, you can." Joseph frowned.
Some emotion was repressed deep in his eyes.
"Are you busy today?" She asked casually.
"Not that I can't cope with." Joseph avoided looking at her all the time.
Kathy knew that he was still angry.
She was angry, too.
But now she needed something from him.
She just didn't know how to say it.
"Kathy, if you have something to say, just say it." Joseph could tell her hesitation.
Joseph's had never failed to see through her.
She bit her lips and sat down opposite Joseph.
"Sonny ... Sonny's wound is infected. The hospital can't handle it. They said it was some toxic substance. Can you get him transferred here?"
Hearing this, Joseph's usually lukewarm eyes turned a little sharp at Kathy.
"You want to save him?"
"Of course." Kathy blurted out.
However, Joseph's gaze was totally indifferent.
She clenched her palms slightly.
At this moment, she no longer expected Joseph's help. His indifferent gaze chilled her heart.
She curled her lips coldly and was about to leave when she heard Joseph's reply.
"He can be transferred to Boston Hospital."
"Will you be his attending doctor?" Kathy asked nervously.
"You want me to treat him?" Joseph's voice was bland as ever.
Kathy paused. She hoped so...
In her eyes, Joseph was incomparably capable. Only he made her feel assured.
"It's up to you." Kathy replied so despite her real wish.
"Alright."
"Is there anything else?"
"No, I'm leaving." Kathy stood up.
Until she walked out of the office, Joseph did not say or do anything.
Kathy had to admit that she was a little disappointed at that moment.
Agitated, she frowned and quickened her steps. As soon as she entered the elevator, hurried footsteps came from behind.
"I'll drive you back." A familiar voice came into her ears.
After a little pause, Kathy nodded slowly.
All the way back to University F, they remained silent. When Kathy unfastened the seatbelt, Joseph said, "I will arrange Sonny's transfer tomorrow."
"Thank you." Kathy stared at him blankly.
"I don't want you to see him too much." Joseph's words were dipped in coldness.
Kathy did not agree.
