Chapter 203 Indeed, He Was Reluctant
Jennifer was still unconscious. She had serious injuries on her hands and legs, and her entire body was bandaged. The situation was not optimistic.
It would take at least 12 hours for her to get out of danger.
Billy stood beside her with a serious face.
Seeing Kathy enter, he walked towards her.
“Kathy, I’m sorry,” Billy apologized again.
Just now, his mother was on the verge of death, so he had no choice but to ask Kathy for a blood transfusion.
But then she fainted, which made him upset.
“It’s rare for you to say sorry,” Kathy whispered. But her attention was on Jennifer.
Seeing the wounds on her body bandaged up, she revealed heartache in her eyes.
“My mother reminded me. She cares about Mrs. Hilton very much.”
Billy’s gaze was meaningful as he looked at Kathy’s side face and his expression softened.
“No matter what, we owe you. You can make any request to me.”
Kathy was surprised. Requests?
She thought about it seriously. But it seemed that Joseph could fulfill all her requests…
“Let’s talk about it until I have one. When Mrs. Hilton wakes up, please inform me.” Kathy didn’t stay long.
At the end of the corridor, Joseph called John and said, “I want all the information about Jennifer and Angela.”
When the two returned to the hotel, the moment they entered the lobby, Lincoln walked over and said, “Oh, man, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”
Joseph remained cold as he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Lincoln looked at Kathy and lowered his voice. “Johnson is here and we’d like to have a reunion. But it seems inconvenient for you.”
“Indeed. Rain check.” With that, Joseph hugged Kathy and went upstairs.
Kathy heard Lincoln’s words and tugged at Joseph’s clothes. “If you have something to deal with, then go. I’ll go back and sleep.”
Joseph frowned and raised her small face. “If you go with me, then I will go.”
“I’m sleepy ...” Kathy whispered. Although she had slept in the hospital for a while, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
“Then I’ll sleep with you,” Joseph said indulgently.
Lincoln bitterly followed them into the elevator. Hearing these mawkish words, his face darkened.
“Hey, stop showing off to me, a bachelor,” Lincoln said discontentedly.
If Joseph didn’t go, the reunion couldn’t be held.
Kathy smiled, but then she remembered that not long ago, Lincoln was quite close to a woman.
Moreover, with Lincoln’s handsome appearance, the chances of him being single were very low.
However, since Lincoln was her superior, Kathy did not dare to gossip about his personal affairs.
“The meeting will be held tomorrow morning at nine o’clock. After that, you will be Joseph’s,” after getting out of the hotel, Lincoln told Kathy.
Kathy’s cheeks blushed. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to City N.”
“Will someone be reluctant?” Lincoln teased.
Joseph smiled and said, “Indeed, I am reluctant.”
“Huh?” Kathy was stunned. If she didn’t go back, what was the point of staying here?
But before she left, she wanted to visit Mrs. Hilton.
“We’ll go back after a few days.” Joseph did not elaborate.
Kathy looked at his handsome face with expectation.
The next day, Lincoln and Kathy arrived at BT Group on time. Peter was waiting in the conference room.
In response to the previous discussion, the two companies put forward new requirements. If there were no other problems, BT Group would officially start its business.
Since everything was decided, Peter’s attitude was much better than before.
However, the other party was Lincoln, the third eldest son of the Fletchers, who was a big shot in City N in his early years. Everyone was respectful to him.
After the meeting ended, Lincoln left and Kathy stayed behind for follow-ups.
Peter sat opposite her as he looked at Kathy with gentleness.
“Mr. Champs, please sign this document.” Kathy handed the document over.
Meeting Peter’s gaze, Kathy frowned.
“Okay.” He answered, signed, and asked, “Dinner?”
“Sorry, I have other matters to attend to.”
“I’ll be staying in B City. And for a long time, I won’t go back to City N,” Peter suddenly said.
Hearing this, Kathy smiled and said, “Isn’t this good? Working in BT Group is no worse than working in Herbert’s Group.”
Peter could understand the ridicule in her words.
“Indeed,” he said coldly, “but we are partners. Kathy, we will meet often.”
Kathy frowned. She knew that she would have to contact with Peter in the future.
“Yeah, as long as Mr. Champs doesn’t target me, our cooperation will be very smooth.” She smiled and turned around to leave.
As she walked out of the meeting room, the smile on her face gradually faded.
At this moment, her phone rang. It was Joseph. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
He was waiting for her downstairs.
At the same time, Peter’s voice sounded from behind her.
“You are so impatient, is Joseph here?” Peter said teasingly.
Kathy raised her eyes and said coldly, “It is my privacy. You don’t have to worry about it.”
“Is that so?” Peter put his hands in his pockets and walked closer step by step.
Kathy subconsciously retreated, but was forced to the wall by him. She shouted angrily, “Peter, what are you doing?!”
“Flirting with you.” The man smiled with discourtesy.
With a darkened face, Kathy pushed him away and quickly walked into the elevator. But Peter’s cold smile lingered in her mind.
“What happened?” After getting into the car, Kathy’s face turned very pale.
She shook her head and her hand was held by Joseph. She subconsciously relied on him.
Joseph frowned as he noticed the abnormality.
“Peter?” His tone was extremely cold.
Kathy stiffened. “I’m fine.”
Joseph did not pursue the matter further as a sinister look flashed across his handsome face.
Jennifer woke up this morning. Kathy went to visit her while Joseph waited outside.
Billy moved aside and stood behind Kathy.
Seeing Kathy, Jennifer revealed a faint smile. “You’re still in B City.”
“We’ll be back in a few days. Mrs. Hilton, my mother and I are worried about you.”
“I know it was you who donated blood to me. Thank you.” Jennifer held her hand. Jennifer’s hand was so cold that it shocked her.
Kathy sat down and held Jennifer’s hand. “It’s nothing. You don’t have to take it to heart.”
“This won’t do. You saved my life. Kathy, I’d like you to be my goddaughter. Are you okay with it?” Jennifer looked at her expectantly.
Kathy was stunned. She didn’t expect Jennifer to have such a request.
“I like you very much. I only have a son, Billy. But I always thought of having both son and daughter. If you can accept me as a godmother, then I will have no regrets in my life.” Jennifer’s tone was a little heavy.
After she finished speaking, Billy was the first to respond, “Mom, I don’t agree.”
