My Sweetheart

Chapter 275 With Her Around, There Won't Be Me

"Quinn, I want to find that person today!" Joseph said sternly.

"I got it."

After hanging up the phone, Joseph instructed John, "Reinforce the guards at the Booth Family's ancient castle. In addition to that, send people all over the city to search for Veronica."

In the ancient castle, many guests were already coming in one after another.

At the side door, a black car slowly stopped.

"From here, you can access to the next building. That woman is on the third floor."

Veronica raised her eyes. She bit her lips tightly and pushed her wheelchair out of the car.

Looking at the back of Veronica from the car, the woman's eyes flashed with coldness.

Third floor, dressing room.

Alexia helped Kathy to fix her hair. Standing in front of the mirror, Kathy was so beautiful that even Alexia felt jealous.

"Kathy, you're so incredibly charming." Alexia smiled.

Kathy's cheeks flushed as she looked at herself in the mirror. She was indeed unfamiliar with her own reflection in the mirror. But after dressing up, she looked stunning.

She barely wore makeup, and her dressing was usually very simple.

Now, with the elegant wedding dress, bright makeup, and a flower crown on her head, all of her exquisite beauty was perfectly displayed.

"Miss Alexia, can you come over to help me?" At that moment, the makeup artist came over.

"What's wrong?"

"Mrs Booth hasn't put on her makeup yet. I might not be able to take care of it all by myself. There's not much time left."

"Kathy, please give me a moment. I'll come over later."

Not long after, a strange sound echoed outside the door. When Kathy looked up and saw Veronica, her face instantly changed.

Veronica was sitting in a wheelchair. Her pale face was bloodless, but her eyes carried an intimidating feeling.

"Yo, I find this happy smile of yours very ironic." Veronica's icy voice sounded.

Kathy frowned. Why was Veronica here?

"You want to marry my brother. I won't agree to it."

"Veronica, Joseph and I were already married," Kathy said in a deep voice.

"You can divorce after marriage. Do you know why I'm sitting on a wheelchair now? It's that brother of yours who did this. He even forced me to-"

Upon hearing this, Kathy's face went pale.

Billy…

Is he really that kind of person?

She didn't have good feelings for Billy but never expected him to be so despicable.

"I can't kill him. Do you think I should kill you?" Veronica walked in slowly.

A knife had been pulled out of her hand! © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Kathy glared at her. She picked up a pillow nearby and threw it at Veronica as she fought her way over to her. Kathy managed to block her slightly.

However, Veronica obviously would not let Kathy go as she stumbled towards her.

Kathy looked at her leg. It wasn't in good condition, but she could barely manage to walk.

"Just because of your brother, I have to wear a prosthetic leg for the rest of my life. Why should you marry my brother? Why should you-" Veronica yelled hysterically.

"Veronica, I can't deny that I'm related to Billy, but my attitude is the same as yours. I hate him too." Kathy spoke harshly.

She clasped Veronica's wrist, trying to take the knife off her hand.

But Veronica's hand was always raised, trying to stab Kathy's face!

She didn't believe Kathy's words, "Hate? Why do you hate him? Kathy, don't lie to me. Hilton Family, I want you all to die a horrible death."

Veronica stood up and pounced onto Kathy once more.

When Kathy turned her body sideways, Veronica could not react very well and crashed onto the wall.

Kathy immediately grabbed the knife in her hand, but she didn't expect Veronica to lean forward and stabbed her!

The pungent smell of blood spread. Kathy looked at her palm. There was a piercing pain.

Veronica wasn't contented, she leaned forward again with the knife in her hand.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps. The door was kicked open. Joseph walked in a black suit, with an icy cold aura.

When he saw the blood on Kathy's hand, he narrowed his eyes and snatched the knife away from Veronica's hand.

Veronica trembled as her entire body fell backwards onto the couch.

Kathy was picked up by Joseph. Her face was very pale.

Blood could be seen everywhere from the back of her hand.

"Veronica, did you take my words seriously?" Joseph glared at her sternly.

Veronica smiled coldly, "You're going to defend her? Brother, I won't allow that!"

"You have no right to meddle in my affairs."

With that was said, Joseph turned around indifferently and instructed John to take Veronica away.

Kathy's hand was injured. Joseph immediately arranged for a private doctor to come over.

In the lounge, Alexia and Jennifer hurriedly came over.

"Kathy, what's going on?"

"Why is Veronica here? Why aren't your family members watching her?" Jennifer looked at Joseph angrily.

Joseph was standing beside Kathy, hugging her at all times.

Knowing that Veronica went missing, he came to look for Kathy as soon as he arrived at the castle. However, he was still a step too late.

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm not hurt very badly."

Kathy could understand Veronica's feelings. If Billy had really done that to her, the impact would indeed be devastating.

Veronica was still so young.

"Kathy, why don't we delay the wedding for a few days until your hand is better?"

"Mom, it's just a minor injury. It's much better after the bandage. All the guests are here. We should not let everyone have a wasted trip."

"Well, that's up to you, but that crazy woman is back. I'm really worried." Jennifer frowned.

On the first floor, Quinn came over to pick Veronica up.

Joseph had a stern face the whole time.

"Brother, if you proceed with this marriage, don't regard me as your sister!"

"Have you had enough of your nonsense?"

"No, if you marry that woman, I'm going to keep causing a scene until the end. I won't let anyone in the Hilton family go!"

"So, you're not letting me off the hook either?" Joseph narrowed her eyes.

Veronica paused. She didn't mean that...

Looking at her brother's angry face, she shuddered.

She just did not like that woman. In fact, she hated her. She hated the fact that Billy and Kathy were siblings...

"Brother, that's not what I meant."

"Go back to Country C and stay there. I am doing that for your own good."

"You just don't want me to hurt her," Veronica retorted.

"Well, that's true. She's my woman. Veronica, if you touch her again, I'll get angry."

Since childhood, Joseph had two sisters, Edith and Veronica.

Veronica was the bloodline of the Gray family. She was much closer to him, and he loved her.

No matter what kind of trouble she caused, Joseph would give in to her.

But this time, it was related to Kathy. That was something he could not tolerate.

"Brother, with her around, there won't be me," Veronica said harshly.

Joseph turned around without hesitation.

The tears under Veronica's eyes condensed. She turned her head and fell into Quinn's arms.

"How can this be ... Quinn, my brother is crazy."

She never expected that in her brother's heart, there would be a woman more important than her.

Quinn frowned. He didn't know about Joseph and Kathy's past. He also did not expect that Joseph would fall in love with Kathy.

Right now, Joseph's behaviour made him confused.
