My Sweetheart novel Chapter 62

At Herbert’s house, the lights were brightly lit.

Peter got out from the car and staggered to the entrance.

He was stopped by the maid who had informed her master about his arrival.

Herbert came out in a short while, holding her belly. She was now pregnant for four months, and her belly grew larger.

Looking at drunken Peter who fell on the ground, her heart ached.

But in the end, she still didn’t help him up.

“Leave now.” She said in a cold voice.

Peter raised his head, “Herbert, please give me one more chance.”

Herbert turned around and instructed the maid, “Kick him out.”

Kingston, Herbert’s father, was standing in front of the French window, looking at Peter who was outside when Herbert came in.

“Dad, does it have to be like this?” Her fragility was revealed from the bottom of her eyes.

“My daughter, that brat’s such an asshole, I am doing this for your sake. If you don’t push him to the corner, he won’t focus on you and the Herbert group.” Kingston said in a harsh tone, as he was aware of Peter’s potential earlier on, but it was still far below his expectation.

“But we can’t drag any longer, the baby’s going to born,” Herbert bit her lips, pressing her hand against her belly.

The wedding had been postponed several times, her belly became larger and larger as time passed.

“Then we’ll wait until the baby is born, there’s no need to rush.”

The next day, there’s another headline about Peter on the press. Photos of Peter and Kathy cuddling at the dining bar were captured by the reporter, however, for this time, Kathy’s face was revealed completely.

At the same time, the news of Herbert doing pregnancy check-up at the hospital was exposed. The internet was full of voices of people who sided and pity of Herbert regarding this cheating scandal. Kathy was doxxed thoroughly, and soon she was recognized as the woman who had intimate relationship with Joseph.

The name of “Kathy” became an overnight sensation on the internet.

At the old mansion of the Joseph’s family.

Kathy prepared to go to work. She received Alexia’s call when she was having her breakfast. “Hurry up and watch the news!”

Kathy frowned and opened the browser with ease, photo of her face being magnified several times appeared.

This photo was exactly the one which was secretly captured at the dining bar last night.

Again together with Peter.

“I don’t think I can go out today.” Kathy’s head was aching.

She was not worried that she was doxxed, but she was afraid that it might affect her family.

As she predicted, she received endless phone call from her mum, Angela.

“Kathy, how dare you cheat on Joseph!” Angela poured her anger towards Kathy without hiding.

Kathy frowned and kept a distance with her phone.

“I didn’t.”

Kathy deeply understood that misfortune could happen regardless of how hard you tried to avoid.

“It’s already published on the newspaper. I never thought that I would see my daughter in the newspaper in my lifetime. Did you have an affair with Peter? He’s getting married soon. You just never changed…” Angela’s fury surged through her.

Why did it have to be Peter again?

Kathy was burdened by him back then.

“Mum, I didn’t, I did meet Peter but we’re over.”

“Then what’s going on now!”

The photos on the newspaper and internet were clear, Peter was embracing her, but she was struggling all the time, just that the photos were taken from different perspective as if they were hugging each other.

“I’ve have nothing to do with Peter.”

“Then why’re you guys hugging each other?”

“He’s drunk.” Kathy was tired of explaining, she felt like there’s nothing she could do to clear her name.

“Did Joseph mention about divorcing with you?” Angela asked.
