Arriving at the Westlife Hotel, Kathy sat in the lobby to wait for Joseph. Soon it went dark outside.
It had been over ten o'clock when Kathy took her steps to the room. However, before she could enter the elevator, Sonny walked towards her. They converged at the door of the elevator.
"Kathy? What are you doing here late at night?" Sonny came from City N, where many doctors and scholars lived.
Kathy stopped with her eyebrows furrowed. She did not want to tell Sonny that she was here to look for Joseph.
"For something personal." Kathy answered.
Although Kathy did not say, Sonny could guess what she was for. "Come for Joseph?" Sonny became serious immediately.
Kathy said yes and was about to step into the elevator.
Sonny followed her up and it seemed like she wanted to say something.
"Sonny, what do you want to say?" Kathy looked at her.
"Joseph is very happy with Zofia. Kathy, don't go find Joseph again," said Sonny after a while.
Kathy turned pale at the moment.
She quivered a bit and bit her lower lip tightly.
"I am here for business." Her voice trembled.
"I hope that it should be. Kathy, I think you are my friend. That's why I warned you. I don't want you hurt."
"Well, really?" Kathy looked indifferent.
She never thought that anyone could change her mind.
"As far as I know, Joseph had been married with Ella for long." Kathy suddenly uttered.
Actually, she had been curious about it for some time. After she left City N, Carl and Maria were busy in divorcing. Ella would be with Maria. But Reece didn't talk about Ella.
She thought that Joseph would be with Ella, but he was with Zofia now.
"Ella?" Sonny frowned after hearing this name. "She died three years ago."
"What?" Kathy shuddered and she couldn't pull herself together at the moment.
How could it happen?
Didn't she marry Joseph? She remembered that Ella had been in a bad condition at that time though.
But why had Joseph married her?
When all these questions baffled Kathy, the elevator ascended to the top floor.
"Kathy, I know you are smart. We are all happy, especially Zofia."
Kathy wanted to say something but she suddenly perceived what Sonny meant.
She clearly knew that Sonny had liked her three years ago. But now she was different.
Kathy was confused. Walking out of the elevator, Sonny did not follow her, yet she felt unpleasant.
The Bridges had never talked about Ella's death, so she had no idea about it.
Then she stopped thinking about it and knocked on the door.
The door automatically opened and Kathy saw the man sitting on the sofa with a single glance.
She said loudly, "Professor Joseph, I would like to wait outside. Please sign the document and hand it to me."
She stood at the door and made up her mind that she would not go in.
Joseph looked cold as usual. Hearing this, he raised his head and smiled. He said with a commanding tone, "Come in here and bring it to me."
"It is not appropriate for me to come in." Kathy was persistent.
