My Sweetheart novel Chapter 358

One hour later, John returned to the hospital.

“I have taken Kathy back to her campus safely.”

“Alright, recently Julian should have assigned some people to come; you replace the group of bodyguards but keep his men.” Joseph said.

“But, isn’t this dangerous?” John worried.

If Julian’s men got close to Joseph, then what about his safety…

“Just stay alert.”

“Alright, of course.”

“Sir, Herbert was also involved in the matter. The statements that were spread online were all arranged by her.” John handed him over the investigation report.

The statements were very clearly directed at Joseph and in addition to this, some of the patient’s statements were also put into the mix. This meant that some of the Joseph’s Group’s new pharmaceuticals were all affected to some degree.

Although the Joseph’s Group had now already cleared everything up, this may still affect the sales in the short term.

“She won’t be able to do much since even if she takes the evidence to the police station, she can’t get rid of the charges for the slander and defamation.” Joseph said coldly.

Three days later, Kathy saw the news of Herbert’s arrest.

She never expected that the person who posted the rumours online was her.

After the Herbert’s Group bankruptcy, she still wasn’t able to sit still.

This was because Kathy believed that Herbert could not have done what she did alone.

There must be at least someone else working in the background.

Kathy’s face fell, she hadn’t been to the hospital for a few days now and didn’t even know if Joseph had been discharged from the hospital or not.

Tomorrow was Friday, and since she hadn’t heard any news that the class was canceled, could this mean that he would still be coming tomorrow?

Kathy put her phone down, however without realizing she had pressed the number to call Joseph.

“Yes?” Kathy was shocked to hear the familiar voice…

She blinked her eyes when she looked at her screen and saw she was in a call with him.

How come she was close to crying after calling Joseph?

“Wrong number.” She took her phone.

“You’re not going to ask how I’m doing?” Joseph’s voice was a little hoarse.

Kathy noticed his hoarse voice and asked, “Are you sick?”

“I don’t know.”

“It’s your own body and you don’t know?” Kathy was a little frustrated.

“I don’t know.”

He really was making her worry.

“Are you coming to class tomorrow?” Kathy asked.

“Do you want to see me?” Joseph asked back.

“All of the students at Ocean University want to see you.” Kathy used Joseph’s words to answer.

“I’m asking you.” Joseph emphasized.

“I don’t have any special need to.” Kathy’s tone was rather indifferent.

“Ok, then I won’t be coming to class.” Joseph’s tone was also rather indifferent.

Why was Joseph being like this!

“Then you should get lots of rest.”

After she said this she ended the call quickly.

At the Hospital.

When Joseph realized that she had hung up, his face sank.

John then quickly entered, “Mr Joseph, the hospital is asking when you plan to be discharged?”

“After one month.”

Was the boss playing a joke?

When Joseph saw the expression of disbelief in John’s eyes, Joseph then displayed a rather rare teasing smile and said, “I’ve injured this leg too.”

John nearly cried. How he could dare do this!

He was so frightened when he planned the car accident, and now Joseph was about to be discharged from the hospital, however he was still hurting himself…

He really couldn’t understand why…

However, naturally he didn’t dare to ask.

“Mr Joseph, I will get a nurse to put a cast on you, so you needn’t hurt yourself.”

Joseph nodded and said, “Alright, that’s fine.”

After the cast was put on he took a picture of his two “injured” legs and posted the photos onto Weibo.

In the past Kathy had set a special reminder to be notified of anything Joseph posted on his Weibo. However because Joseph rarely ever posted anything she forgot that she had done this.

Until now when she was notified that Joseph had posted something on Weibo. There was no text, but just two photos of his injured legs in casts.

Why did it seem like he was doing worse than before.

At this moment Zofia had just returned and when she got closer to Kathy she looked at her phone and asked, “Who is this?”

“It’s Joseph.”

Zofia couldn’t help but laugh, “Really? Joseph was really injured this badly?”

“I don’t know. Before he had just injured one of his legs, but now how come both of his legs are injured…”

“Could this be the work of Julian?” Zofia knew about some of the conflict going on within the Joseph family.

If Joseph was to be in an accident, then Julian would be the one who would benefit the most from this.

“Julian?” Kathy recalled the name of this figure; it seemed that he was Joseph’s brother.

However the relationship between these two was very bad.

“Yes, Joseph is in the hospital right now and I think that the recent things that happened to the Joseph’s Group were caused by Julian. I’m not even sure when Joseph will be able to deal with him.” Zofia muttered.

Kathy frowned full of worry, she looked at the photo once more and then decided to log off Weibo.

She was struggling to concentrate in her classes today, to the extent that Mr Watson got angry with her.

“Kathy, what did I just say!”

Kathy returned back to her senses, still slightly worried.

“I’m sorry professor; I’m not really in the right state of mind today.”

“You should leave now then, come back again tomorrow.”

Kathy lowered her eyes and hit her head a few times; however the image of Joseph still remained in her mind for a long time.

Just as she had left the classroom, Mr Watson stopped her and asked, “Why is Joseph in the hospital?”

“Oh, he was in a car accident.”

“Please visit him for me and convey my condolences to him.”

“Of course, professor.”

At the hospital.

After the bodyguard who was outside the ward saw Herbert, he immediately went in to report, “Sir, Herbert is here.”

After he heard this, Joseph’s expression remained unchanged for he was not surprised.

“Ok, let her in.”

Herbert had just been released on bail and immediately came here.

“Joseph, this matter had nothing to do with me.” Herbert stood in front of him.

Joseph didn’t even lift his eyes and continued to focus on the notebook in front of him.

“I was put up to do this by someone. It was not me who released the scandals relating to the Joseph’s Group, how it would be possible that I have the courage to do that!” Herbert explained.

“Shouldn’t you be telling the police this? It’s pointless telling me.”

Herbert’s face went pale; absolutely no one seemed to believe what she was saying.

Right now all the evidence was pointing at her, to the extent that there was nothing implicating Julian as part of this.

“From the beginning the person who has been framing the Joseph’s Group is Julian.”

“So you are saying you were framed by him too?” Joseph said coldly.

Herbert was silent.

“I was used by him; however those scandals that were released really had nothing to do with me.”

“What do you want me to do?” Joseph’s eyes rose up.

“I want to testify against Julian.”

“You collaborated with Julian for longer than just one or two days, it’s impossible for you to get the charges dropped against you.”

Herbert trembled, for the things Joseph knew were a lot more than she had imagined.

The relationship she had established with Julian was set up long ago.

“You deliberately made Kathy wrongly believe that there was something going on between you and me, was Julian also involved in this?” Joseph asked.

“Yes.”

Kathy who was about to push the door open paused when she heard this.

She didn’t expect to hear those words.

She originally thought that Joseph was deliberately shielding and covering up for Herbert, however now it seemed that that person was Julian, and not Joseph?

She was starting to calm down from her previous tense state.

She had not believed in the wrong person.
