Chapter 464 It Costed So High

"Miss Kathy, why are you hostile to me?" Reece looked at her.

Every time Kathy saw him, she didn't have an easy look.

"Mr. Bridges, I am not hostile to you." Kathy frowned.

"If you are not hostile to me, shall we have a meal together?" Reece invited her.

"Sorry, I don't eat with people I don't know well." Just as the elevator door opened, Kathy went out first.

Reece was just a stranger to her.

She was in no mood and didn't have time to have a dinner with him.

Reece, who was rejected, was sullen. His black eyes gradually darkened with a cigarette between his
fingertips.

After going back to school and sleeping for a while, Kathy received a call from Joseph.

"Grandpa's birthday is on Saturday. A party will be held at the hotel under Joseph Group. Attend with
me, OK?" Joseph asked.

"Grandpa's birthday! It's only two days! I haven't prepared a gift for him." Kathy immediately sat up, a
little anxious.

"I have prepared a gift, so you just need to give yourself to me."

Kathy's cheeks turned slightly red, "What is the gift?"

"A calligraphy and painting."

"All right, I'll wait for you at the Booth Mansion."



Zofia just came back. Hearing Kathy's voice, she raised her eyes and asked, "Mr Mathew's birthday
party is on Saturday. Will your relationship with Joseph be made public?"

"Let's go with the flow..." Kathy whispered.

"I heard from Veronica that Mr Mathew is not in good health. He must want Joseph to get married as
soon as possible."

"I haven't graduated. It must not be so fast."

"The second grade postgraduate majors in science of acupuncture and moxibustion next door got
married and became pregnant. She just recovered and was ready to work after graduating. It was just
right."

Kathy was speechless.

"If this happened to me, it would definitely be a delay in graduation. My first year in graduate school is
packed with internship. I have no time to become pregnant and get married."

"Yes, besides, you are the only student of Benedict, the key resource."

...

Two days later, Kathy went back to the Booth Mansion early. When Jennifer arranged her room before,
she vacated a large cloakroom, which was full of the latest clothing from top brands in season.

And the other cabinet was displayed with all kinds of dresses.

Kathy picked a white suspender dress, standing in front of the mirror, and put on a light makeup.

Jennifer has been at home. Knowing that Kathy was back, she knocked on the door before entering.



Mathew's birthday party was held today. Because of Joseph's relationship with Kathy, Jennifer also
received an invitation, but she didn't intend to attend the party.

"My daughter is the most beautiful." Jennifer looked at the dressed Kathy, being full of petting in her
eyes.

Kathy had fine features, white skin, and puppy-fat face. Her hair was tied into a bun. That made she
look pretty and charming.

She didn't really like wearing make-up before, but because of Zofia during this time, she gradually
learned to wear it light.

"Mom, don’t you go to the party?" Seeing that Jennifer was still wearing her normal clothes and not
dressed up, Kathy asked suspiciously.

"I have business to deal with. Gift is prepared. You take it for me."

Kathy didn't ask much. After all, Jennifer was still a member of the Hilton family, and the Joseph family
and Hilton family had always been incompatible with each other. Even if Billy was in the prison now,
Jennifer might still felt sad.

At seven o'clock in the evening at Joseph’s Hotel.

Kathy was already familiar with these occasions. She took Joseph’s arms all the way into the banquet
hall. Although the main business of Joseph’s Group was in the pharmaceutical industry, its business
has gradually covered all walks of life. Guests in attendance were leaders of major groups.

Joseph was Mathew's most valued grandson and heir to the Joseph family. He naturally attracted
everyone's attention when he came in. He walked straight towards Mathew.



Kathy brought two gifts and politely wished her grandpa birthday, "Grandpa, happy birthday. May you
live a long and happy life."

Seeing Kathy, Mathew became a little strange.

He ordered the servant to receive the gifts and then introduced Joseph to influential people in business.

Kathy was left alone. She didn't care about that. On the contrary, she could keep quite.

It's just that Grandpa's attitude just now made her feel strange.

Grandpa used to be kind to her, but just now he just faintly thanked her.

Was she thinking too much?

Before long, there was a movement at the door. Quinn and Veronica were coming.

They were preparing for the wedding recently, which was a great event for the Joseph family.

Veronica was a little hungry, so Quinn accompanied her to the dining table.

Unlike Joseph who was always surrounded by guests, Veronica never participated in the business of
the Joseph’s Group, so she felt quieter than him.

"Kathy, how can my brother leave you behind?" Veronica who was always frank frowned when she saw
Kathy was here alone.

"I don't know about business." Kathy smiled, not angry.

"Yes, but does my brother really plan to take over the Joseph’s Group?" Veronica asked.

"I think he may not." Kathy and Veronica sat down together, and Quinn brought drinks to them.



"I don't know what my elder brother is thinking about. He is a doctor, but suddenly takes over the
Joseph’s Group. It would be difficult to turn back." Veronica sighed.

She felt that Joseph was in a dilemma.

Kathy was silent because she didn't know why as well.

.

Veronica looked at Quinn, hoping that he would answer.

Quinn looked at them, feeling a little embarrassed. He and Joseph were friends since they were young,
but he always felt that it should be told by Joseph himself.

Seeing that Quinn was hesitant, Veronica noticed something fishy.

"Are you hiding something from me?" Veronica lost her temper.

The most intolerable thing to her was deception.

"Okay, I tell you." Facing Veronica, Quinn said seriously, "I guess your brother took over the Joseph’s
Group for the purpose of acquiring NCHV Medical Company. After all, the two things happened at the
same point."

"NCHV Medical Company, the company Kathy used to work for?"

Kathy was stunned. She seemed to understand what Quinn's mean. Joseph took over the Joseph’s
Group for acquiring NCHV Medical Company. But why did he acquire NCHV Medical Company?

Was it because she was in the employment of NCHV Medical Company?



Veronica had obviously guessed it. She exclaimed, "Brother... Why doesn't a man treat me like this,
otherwise I'm married him early."

Quinn's face changed, a little helpless, "Veronica, I am willing to do anything for you."

Kathy was still ruminating Quinn's words. Did Joseph really do this for her?

In order to keep her job?

No, he didn't need to do that...

It costed so high.

He could pursuit his ideals, but he changed his direction and went into business.

Seeing that Kathy was in a daze, Quinn knew that she definitely didn't know about it.

He sighed, "Joseph is very concerned about you. These are not worth mention."

So, did he do something great for her...?
