Chapter 644 Why Bring Me Here

When Kathy woke up the next day, she was a little dazed and didn't know when she fell asleep last
night.

The place next to her was already empty and cold. Apparently Joseph had been up for a while.

Laying on the bed with her eyes closed, Kathy heard the footsteps from the stairs.

Someone knocked on the door outside, "Kathy, are you up?"

Kathy hurriedly finished washing and went to open the door.

"I cooked the porridge." The hostess put the food on the table with a smile, "Drink another bowl of
ginger soup after eating. After all, you get wet in the rain yesterday."

Kathy remembered the ginger soup last night, smiled and said, "Thank you both."

"It’s my fault. I didn’t remind you not to go to West Mountain. It’s easy to get lost... Yesterday Joseph
came back and found that you were gone. He was so anxious that he went out to look for you. When
he came back, he insisted on staying there until he finally found you."

Kathy had been drinking the porridge in silence, and the hostess was still talking, "Later, he kept
reminding me to make ginger soup for you..."

"I'm done drinking." Kathy suddenly interrupted the hostess, smiled and said, "Thank you."

Because they will leave in the evening, Kathy started packing.

She folded the clothes and put them neatly in the travel bag.

First she put her own, and then put Joseph's, but when she just put his clothes in it, she tore off his
clothes angrily.



Thinking of Joseph's threats to her and maintaining such an obscure relationship with him, she took a
deep breath and felt a tremendous pressure on her chest.

At this time, Joseph had already entered, and he sat opposite her. He looked at her with a complex
expression in his eyes.

Kathy bit her lip tightly. She didn't want to expose any emotions in front of Joseph, so she turned her
back to him and reorganized all her clothes.

After lunch, Joseph didn't rush back, but raised his eyebrows at Kathy and asked in a low voice, "Can
you walk?"

She sipped her tea and did not look up, "Emm?"

The old couple seemed to notice something unpleasant between them, so encouraged them, "Why
don't you go for a walk today? The weather is so good, since you will leave at night, go out and take a
walk. We can cook meal at home to wait for you."

Kathy smiled at the hostess's enthusiastic smile and nodded involuntarily.

After a night’s rest, the wound of Kathy's ankle was healing. She walked very slowly, and he did not
urge her. The two were walking slowly along a river in the town.

"Is that child a boy or a girl?" Kathy asked suddenly.

When Zofia called Joseph, she heard the child's voice.

But she can’t hear clearly.

Joseph frowned. He kept watching Kathy without any expression on his face.

"Boy," he replied.



Kathy smiled. She wanted to ask if he and Zofia were married, but it didn't seem to matter anymore.
She didn't want to know anything about Joseph anymore.

She would rather be kept in the dark all the time.

He turned his head, noticed the indifferent smile at the corner of Kathy's mouth, and his mouth
suddenly tightened into a thin line.

The two of them walked in silence for a long time. Kathy raised her eyes and murmured again, "Why
did you bring me here?"

He answered the question, "Do you like this place?"

"Yes, I like. I feel comfortable here." Kathy had completely calmed down at this moment, just like the
flowing river.

"Every time I come here, I don't want to go back." Joseph gave a rare smile. Looking at the willow trees
on the river bank, his eyes turned. "This is where Veronica grew up."

She hadn't seen Veronica for a long time. Now she should be married to Quinn, right?

She was not Joseph's sister, but the relationship between the two was as close as a brother and sister.

"Veronica... in City N now?" Kathy looked at Joseph, and she clearly noticed that he was a little sad.

But how could he have such emotions, and she still felt sorry for him.

"She's not in City N, she has died." Joseph raised his head slightly. His perfectly profiled face was
shrouded in the sun, but he looked cold.

Kathy was so surprised. She hesitated for a while before asking, "Why…"



Veronica was still so young. She just got rid of her wheelchair and stood up, why...

Joseph's eyes suddenly became cold and terrifying. Kathy couldn't help but shudder. When she
stepped back involuntarily, she twisted her injured ankle because she accidentally stepped on a stone.
She grimaced with pain, and was about to fall to the ground.

She thought that Joseph would definitely not support herself, and she would definitely not cry out pain
to show weakness in front of him.

But before she fell, an arm suddenly wrapped her waist and hugged her firmly in front of her chest.

This kind of contact surprised her. It seemed that no one had thought of it.

Their faces were so close that they can feel each other’s breath, just like few days ago they had sex.

In just half a second, Joseph had hid all his expressions, and quickly let go of Kathy, turned and walked
to the river with his back facing her.

The sun was brighter. He stood erect. After a long time, he turned and waved to Kathy, "Come here."

Kathy walked over slowly. He gently pulled her into his arms and wrapped her around her waist.

He put a small stone in her palm, held her hand and threw it to river. Plopping, plopping... After five or
six waves, the stone sank to the bottom of the river.

Kathy's eyes widened in surprise.

Joseph chuckled in his ear like a child, as if he knew her astonishment.

Kathy quickly dropped her eyes, and tried to get away from Joseph's arms, but his hand never let go of
her. Kathy only felt uneasy and flustered.



However, what made her more uneasy was that Joseph mentioned Veronica's death.

She got no information about such a big matter, and his attitude was even more strange.

She had known before that Veronica was very important to him.

At this moment, Joseph's chin was naturally placed on Kathy's shoulder. Because he hadn't shaved in
the two days, he felt a little tingling. He said, "Let’s go back."

Kathy frowned. She suddenly didn’t want to leave

"Don't want to go back?" Joseph saw through her mind and smiled, as if he kissed her cheek when he
petted her three years ago.

Kathy pursed her lips, quickly walked ahead and said coldly, "No, I want."
