Chapter 139 It Was Worth it

After work, Kathy went home. The house was renovated, and Angela has moved in.

“Kathy, is this true?” Angela handed the tablet to her, suggesting the news of the resignation of Joseph.

Nodded Kathy.

“What happened? Is he leaving for another hospital?” asked Angela.

Kathy was only paying attention to news like this because it was related to Joseph.

“He’s changing his career,” replied Kathy.

“Changing his career...for what?”

“Mom, it was something about his family, and I don’t know much about it. He definitely had a plan for
himself.”

“Well, I’m just worried about him,” sighed Angela.

“Mom, what’s this?” Kathy smelled something from the kitchen and walked in to check.

“I was too into his news that I forgot to turn off the stove,” Angela rushed into the kitchen while
explaining, “I made this tonic for you. You have been married for half a year, but you are not pregnant.”

Kathy was a little awkward, “Joseph and I are not ready for having a baby yet.”

“You’re turning 26 next year. If you get pregnant now, you’ll be 27 when the baby is born. Don’t wait no
more,” Angela was quite concerned.

“Mom, stop worrying about that. Just let it be.”

Kathy never thought about being a child’s mother at all.



Although Joseph and she did have intercourse, they always applied contraception. It would not be a
good news if they have a kid.

“You have to let me know if something’s wrong with your health, I’ll bring you to a traditional Chinese
physician,” Angela would not stop advising her daughter.

Kathy covered her ears and walked out of the kitchen, but she still had to finish the tonic in front of
Angela.

“Mom, was Peter sentenced?” Kathy asked because she was still in Country C and had no clue what
happened after his detention.

“He was fined and sent into the jail for ten days. Nothing else could be done.”

“That’s fine as long as he doesn’t bother us anymore,” Kathy sounded angry.

She suddenly realized that Joseph had invested in Peter’s company, so there was a chance that Peter
would gain everything back soon.

No surprise, Peter had a press conference on his new company right after he got out of jail. He used to
be the CEO of the Herbert’s Group and was involved in a series of public opinion crisis, which had
deprived the good image from him. However, this press conference was a huge event because people
heard the rumor that Peter’s new company just received a great investment.

Kathy saw the news about the press conference and turned to ask the man next to her, “Aren’t you one
of the shareholders? Why don’t you go to the press conference?”

Looking up, Joseph replied with a poker face, “I don’t have time.”

“Joseph, that was 50 million dollars. Can’t you just take the money back?” asked Kathy.



She knew that he invested in Peter’s company because of her, so she was feeling guilty about it.

She was not pleased seeing Peter having a good time.

“50 millions for you safety. It was worth it,” said Joseph. He turned and fixed his eyes on Kathy.

Her heart fluttered, and she tried to escape his gaze.

Meanwhile, the housekeeper showed up with an invitation to a banquet held by Peter’s company. The
invitation was for Joseph and Kathy. The latter soon had a reaction: “I’m not going.”

She knew she would be making waves if she was attending the banquet.

Joseph said, “but you’ll be missing a good show.”
