Chapter 483 Joseph, Let’s Do It

Joseph felt like tearing Kathy’s clothes apart when he laid his hands on her.

But he had to control himself.

His self-control was crumbling in front of the woman he loved the most.

But it seemed Kathy didn’t want to do it, so he just cuddled her. That was enough to help him feel
better.

Kathy could sense Joseph suffering, but she was really not in the mood…

But she couldn’t bear to see Joseph being tortured like this either.

“Joseph, let’s do it.”

She raised her head and looked into Joseph’s eyes. Gritting her teeth, she put her lips on his.

Joseph narrowed his eyes. He couldn’t resist Kathy’s initiative. With his hand cupping the back of her
head, he lied her down under him…

…

Outside the hotel.

Looking at his unconscious sister, Reece’s eyes were grim.

“To the hospital,” he told the driver.

On the way, he got a phone call from Mathew.

“Pleasure working with you, Mr. Bridges.”



“Mr. Mathew, the plan has failed. Ella is unconscious by my side right now.”

“What? My grandson was drugged, it’s impossible for him to hold himself back with that influence.”

“Joseph’s self-control is beyond our expectations,” Reece said blandly.

That drug was developed by the Bridges family in the early days. He was the only person who could
resist the influence of the drug.

But now it seemed Joseph was the second person who could do that.

“I’ll handle things on my side. Please propose the marriage date soon.” Reece’s tone was authoritative
as usual.

Ella came to the moment Reece hang up the phone. The wound on her forehead was roughly taken
care of, but it was still painful.

“Reece?”

“Joseph didn’t touch you?” Reece narrowed his eyes.

A coat was put on Ella at this moment. But Reece already saw it. There was no sign of shagging
underneath that coat.

Ella shook her head in dismay. Joseph really… loathed her.

She felt an impulse to give up every time she looked into his indifferent gaze.

“Reece, I can’t do this anymore.”

“I promised I’ll make you marry him.”



“But, he loathes me. Or you can even say he hates me.”

She really loved Joseph, so she couldn’t overlook his emotions.

“So, what do you have in mind?” Reece was sophisticated and he could tell what Ella was thinking.

She wanted to quit.

“He won’t marry me.”

“The Joseph family will pressure him. He will have no choice but to marry you.”

“Is that so?” Ella forced a wry smile.

Joseph was not a guy who would let anyone manipulate him.

What happened this night was the best example. He was drugged, but he just won’t touch her no
matter how she seduced him.

…

In the midnight, Kathy left the bathroom in Joseph’s arms.

They were both soaking wet, but there were no clothes in the room for them to change into.

Kathy was exhausted, but Joseph was ready to go again.

She put her hand on his chest and held him off. She couldn’t take any more.

Joseph cuddled her and didn’t continue on his actions.

He knew she was tired.



The flame of lust had subsided and his rationality had found its way back to him. He grabbed his
phone. There was signal in the room now.

He asked John to bring him two sets of clothes.

It was midnight but he wasn’t sleepy at all. After changing into the new set of clothes, he left the room.
The banquet was over, the hall was pitch-dark.

Suddenly, his phone rang. It was Lincoln.

“Bro, Johnson told me something happened?” Lincoln was still in the hotel. Johnson didn’t tell him what
happened but only told him to wait for Joseph’s order.

“Yeah, come over to the hall.”

Joseph was in a white shirt and black slack, his face was still red from the drug influence. Smoking a
cigarette, his face was grim.

“Yo, you just done with some private business?” Lincoln could tell it in a single glance.

Joseph gave him a grim gaze.

“Grandpa locked me up with Ella and drugged me.”

“Is the old man out of his mind? I thought he likes Kathy!”

“He thought I insist to work at the hospital because of her.”

“Yeah, that’s what I thought too.” Lincoln nodded approvingly while rubbing his chin.

“So what do you plan to do? It seems the old man wants to hook you up with Ella.”



“Kathy doesn’t want to get married yet. I’m planning to just engage her for now.”

“Man, you two were married, and now dealing with engagement again? Why not just restore the
marriage, things will be so much easier that way,” Lincoln said.

“Kathy is still in college. I don’t want to pressure her.” Joseph shook his head.

“Fine, you overprotective husband. But your grandfather won’t just give up like this,” Lincoln reminded.

“I think he’ll soon announce my marriage with Ella. He must have made some kind of a deal with
Reece.”

But little did he know, there was more going on between Reece and his grandfather.

“Did he think he can take the Bridges family under his influence? Reece is not someone to mess
around with.”

Joseph pursed his lips. His grandfather… even though he dropped all his authorities in the Joseph’s
Group, he never let go of his power and influence in the business world.

The next morning, Kathy woke up early. She couldn’t sleep soundly.

There was a brand new dress lying on the bed beside her. She supposed Joseph sent it here.

She washed up and left the room. Joseph was sitting on the sofa, focusing on his work.

He was extremely calm, which was crazy considered how wild he was the previous night.

If it wasn’t for she had already stayed with Joseph for quite some time now, she would’ve thought that
he had split personality.



He was a gentleman with the clothes on, and a beast without them.

So he was indeed… a wolf in sheep’s clothing?

“Come here.” Joseph deep voice brought Kathy’s mind back from wandering.

She sat down beside him meekly.

The laptop screen was filled with bunch of strings of numbers she couldn’t comprehend.

“Does it still hurt?” he asked gently.

“What?” Kathy didn’t get what he meant.

“Your lower body.”

“Oh…” Kathy’s face flushed red. “It’s okay.”

“All right. Eat the pill.” Joseph pointed at the pill on the table.

They did it in the bathroom the previous night, so there wasn’t any condom available. And he was
under influence, so they did it many times.

“Okay…” Kathy lowered her gaze and recalled about this.

Luckily Joseph was precautious, or she would be in huge trouble if she got pregnant out of this.

“Kathy, it was my fault for not handling the situation well enough last night.”

Kathy was silent for a while upon hearing that.

From her perspective, he had handled it pretty well.



To say the least, he didn’t touch Ella. He managed to control himself even in the half-trance state.

She hugged him and uttered, “I didn’t blame you for what happened, Joseph.”

“I’ll talk to Grandpa if this was really his doing.”

“Grandpa seems to be not very pleased with me,” Kathy said in a low voice.

She didn’t know how to turn this situation around.

Perhaps Mathew will only be rest assured if she left Joseph.

“That’s why I want us to get into engagement.” Joseph took out a familiar looking ring the next moment.

Holding Kathy’s hand, he put the ring on her middle finger.
