Chapter 298 He Could Only Indulge Her

It was already late at night. She checked the time: three o’clock in the morning.

She removed the vein detained needle directly from the back of her hand, then found her phone and
dialed Joseph’s number.

But no one ever answered.

Her heart grew icy cold gradually.

She didn’t want to stay here anymore, she wanted to go back to N City.

When the doctor saw her act on the spur of the moment, he immediately stopped her, “Miss Kathy, you
can’t get out of bed yet!”

“It’s none of your business,” Kathy said coldly.

As soon as she said this, she picked up the bag next to her and started packing.

Bertie, who was standing aside, didn’t stop her.

She was downhearted and so was he.

She felt pain and so did he.

Therefore, he could only indulge her.

“If you really want to leave, let me see you off,” Bertie said in a deep voice after a long while.

Kathy turned a blind eye to him. After taking her bag, she ran out of the room and went downstairs to
the living room where there were two bodyguards standing at the door.

When they saw Kathy want to go out, they stepped forward indifferently to block her.



“We’re sorry, Miss Kathy. But you can’t go out without the Master’s order.”

Kathy looked at the two beefy men in front of her, who obviously had consummate combat skills, and
she couldn’t push them away at all.

Frustration glinted in her eyes. She sat in the living room, still dialing Joseph’s number persistently.

However, a busy tone was still heard after the ringing sound.

A moment later, a tall and slender figure came down the stairs. It was Bertie.

“Trust me once, okay?” Bertie could see her pain and struggle.

He didn’t want to force her, and he didn’t like Kathy becoming lifeless.

Kathy looked up at Bertie’s serious look and frowned.

Who else could she believe?

“Grandpa won’t let you leave the Booth Mansion. There were bodyguards inside and outside here. He
won’t let you go to Joseph again.”

…

An hour later, Kathy arrived at the airport.

Looking at the man driving next to her, she didn’t say a word along the way.

Her world had been turned upside down by what happened in the past few days.

With Zack’s way of doing things, she was afraid that even if she left today, Zack would look for her in N
City tomorrow.



Nonetheless, she had to leave.

“I’ve arranged a private jet for you. You’ll be in N City in two hours.”

“Well.” Kathy’s face remained indifferent.

“Due to Grandpa’s recent condition, he won’t go to N City himself. I’ve been tied up with work recently,
but I’ll send some people to protect you.”

“You think Zack will take me back, don’t you?” Kathy asked.

“I’m sure of it.” Bertie nodded.

He had been with Zack since he was a child, so he knew Zack’s temper and way of doing things very
well.

Since he wanted Kathy and Joseph to break up, then it was impossible for him to let them be together
again.

“Why do you tell me? Bertie, even if you help me now, I won’t forgive you,” Kathy said indifferently.

This man was in cahoots with the Booth family.

“I know, but I hope you’re well.” Bertie gazed at her ardently.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to possess her, but that he couldn’t.

All he ever wanted was Kathy to be with him willingly.

Kathy turned around without any hesitation. She would no longer trust anyone in the Booth family.

…



The Booth family.

Bertie didn’t go back until the morning, and Jennifer had noticed that Kathy had left.

When she saw Bertie come back, she asked him nervously, “Where did Kathy go?”

“She doesn’t belong here in the first place,” Bertie said solemnly.

“She’s my daughter!” Jennifer said in a fit of anger.

“Mrs. Booth, I admit that I’ve my private reason to let Kathy leave, but forcing her repeatedly will only
make her hate you even more.”

“She won’t hate me, I’m her birth mother…”

Bertie frowned. He could tell that Kathy had no feelings other than hatred for the Booth family.

“Just leave her alone. I believe that she won’t get back together with Joseph in a short time.”

“Is she going back to N City? I want to go back too,” Jennifer said nervously.

But Bertie stopped her, “Grandpa doesn’t have much time left, so let’s stay with him all this time.”

“But, Kathy…”

“She’ll take care of herself.”

“How can she take care of herself?! You’re such a rebel. Do you even know what you’re doing? She’s
your future wife!” Zack’s furious voice was heard all of a sudden.

“Grandpa, I don’t want to trap her,” Bertie said in a deep voice.

“If she’d obeyed me, I wouldn’t have done it!” Zack’s countenance fell.



He had to play hardball when there was anyone and anything out of his control.

“Jennifer, bring her back right away!” Zack ordered his daughter.

Jennifer furrowed her forehead. In fact, she agreed with what Bertie said.

If they forced Kathy to stay here, it would only make her more resistant to them.

“I said I want to see my granddaughter. You two are disobeying me now, are you?” Zack narrowed his
eyes sternly.

Zack flew into a towering rage as he saw that Jennifer and Bertie had been unmoved.

“Dad, please calm down. I’ll bring Kathy back in due course,” Jennifer reassured Zack.

“In due course? How long will it take? If you let her go back to N City now, does that mean you let her
go back to Joseph?” Zack lashed out.

“I don’t care, since none of you obey me, I’ll go to N City myself!” After saying this, Zack instructed the
butler that he would depart the next day.

Bertie frowned and stopped his Grandpa.

“Grandpa, I promise that I’ll bring Kathy back.”

Zack paused. He had always cherished Bertie the most and had a very high opinion of him, but what
he did today made him very disappointed.

“Grandpa, due to your health condition, you can’t tire yourself out and there’re the best doctors for you
in B Country,” Bertie’s voice became gentle.



Zack straightened his face, he knew his health condition well.

His doctor had told him that long-distance flights were absolutely forbidden.

“I want to know my granddaughter’s daily activity,” Zack compromised and said.

“I’ll report to you, don’t worry.”

Jennifer let out a sigh of relief. As she saw Zack go upstairs to his room, she called Kathy.

Unexpectedly, Kathy didn’t refuse to answer her call.

“Mrs. Booth.” There was an alienation in Kathy’s tone of voice, and even her title to Jennifer was no
longer intimate.

Jennifer sighed and said gently, “Kathy, please don’t blame us for this. Grandpa loves you the most.
The reason he wants you to divorce is because he doesn’t want you to be cheated by Joseph.”

Kathy remained silent, and she had heard it so many times.

But she didn’t think that other people had the right to make decisions for her.

Even her family also didn’t have this right.

“Don’t worry, I’m already divorced,” Kathy said coldly.

She reminisced a lot on the plane, remembering the beginning of her relationship with Joseph and all
the things they did when they were together.

Last night, he agreed to divorce without hesitation.



She couldn’t know what Joseph was thinking, but deep down, she believed that he would agree to
divorce her because he wanted to save her.

But it was too unfair to her.

She had no right to choose at all, but had to get a divorce.

“As you know, your grandpa’s time is running out. If you’ve free time, you can come back anytime. Here
will always be your home.”
