Chapter 106 You Can’t Prevent It
“Kathy, who’s here?” Angela’s voice came out from the kitchen.
As soon as Joseph came in, he smelled the fragrance of the food, and his eyebrows softened even more.
“It’s Joseph.”
They sat down on the sofa, and Joseph wanted to help out in the kitchen, but he was held back by Kathy, “My mom doesn’t like
to be disturbed by others when she is cooking.”
“I just want to see if there’s anything I can help.”
Kathy was surprised as Joseph was always very polite towards Angela.
“Just sit down, my mum probably expected you’ll be here and cooked a lot of food.”
Although Angela had hot tempered, her anger waned like a fast-moving storm.
Joseph smirked, and lowered down his head to kiss Kathy. She subconsciously looked at the kitchen, although the door was
closed, Angela might come out at any time.
“Don’t...”She pressed against his approaching thin lips with her finger. Joseph narrowed his eyes and bit her fingertips.
Kathy shuddered as if an electric shock flowed through her body making her tingly.
“You...” Kathy just couldn’t resist and her cheeks burst in red.
When Angela came out, Kathy immediately withdrew her hand, and sat in a disciplined manner.
“Dinner is ready.”
The dining table was small and just right to fit in three people. Angela looked at both of them, her expression finally softened.
“Joseph, I know you’re not to blame for this incident, but since Kathy is married to you, she must not be wronged,” Angela said in
a serious tone.
“Mom, I know, I promise that Kathy will be fine when she’s by my side,” Joseph said in a deep voice.
He looked at Kathy with a doting gaze.
Kathy felt like she was drowning in love...
“Well, let’s eat, both of you can go home when you’re done, I won’t disturb your couple’s life, I’ll move back to the old house once
it’s done renovating.”
“Mom, I want to spend more time with you.” Kathy couldn’t help but speak.
Actually, she didn’t really want to be too close to Joseph recently, it was time to keep some distance between the two of them.
“You can just come to visit me when you’re free. You should take care of Joseph more.”
Kathy was speechless.
Angela’s attitude towards Joseph changed too fast.
Joseph raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, “I’m the one who supposed to take care of her. I’ll try to reduce my work time
to spend more time with her.”
Kathy lowered her head without giving any response.
Joseph was really good at acting.
Back to the old mansion, Corey had investigated the case clearly. It was actually the maid who stole it but because she was
afraid of being discovered, she temporarily hid the emerald in Angela’s room. All the maids in the old mansion had been
thoroughly investigated, left only those with clean background.
“Mrs. Joseph, things like this won’t happen again in future, trust me.” Joseph grabbed her hand and embraced her into his arms
when they got back to their room.
“It’s not your fault, there all sorts of people in the world, it’s impossible to prevent them, just be more careful in the future.” Kathy
wasn’t mad.
“But what kind of treasure did you hide in your antique room?” Kathy was a little curious though.
Joseph’s lips curved up, “I’ll take you to have a look.”
The antique room was in another building, and Kathy had never been there before. Only now she realized that the old mansion
was much larger than she thought, and after crossing through the garden, there’s something else behind it.
Passing through the corridor, they took the elevator to a room on the second floor. The entire room was decorated in ancient
style, and felt like they were being in a literary family when she entered the room.
Kathy didn’t know much about antiques, she only came across with it when she used to watch antique shows with her late father
when she was young.
“Did you collect all this?” Kathy asked.
Joseph shook his head, “Grandpa likes antiques the most, he started decorating this room when he was young and often bought
back many things. I only know a little bit about antiques.”
His interest was all focused on medical field.
