âDonât you want to pursue her? You donât even have her phone number, youâre so timid!â
âMaybe she doesnât want to receive my call at all.â
âBrother, youâre so useless but I still think you have the chance. Kathy has distanced herself from Joseph!â
âWhat do you mean?â
âI mean it literarily. Joseph gives a speech in the campus on Sunday but Kathy does not attend and shows no interest at all, she must have given up on him.â
Bertie remained silent. Sometimes, the intense one wanted to escape from someone, the harder one was able to give up on somebody.
âJoseph attends and gives a speech? He has always disliked showing up in front of the public,â Bertie frowned.
He had agreed to do so?
âThatâs right, he always keeps a low profile. Nevertheless, he is not only here to give a speech, he is also hired as a professor...â
âOkay, I have understood,â Bertie hung the phone quickly.
After a while, the assistant came in the office.
âMr Marshall, the Herbertâs group announced that they had bankrupted this morning.â
After hearing the news, Bertie changed his expression, âDoesnât Billy help?â
âThe Hilton Groupâs status is not stable as well. The market share of the Hilton Groupâs medical field drops rapidly. Soon, the Josephâs Group has a variety of new medicine to be introduced and directly hit the Hilton Group.â
Bertie frowned, the Josephâs Group had prepared for a long time and attacked abruptly...
...
It was dusk when Joseph left the campus. Once he came out, a few students gathered around him.
At the moment, Kathy was called by Mr Watson. She could see Joseph being gathered from far away.
He was outstanding, his handsome face was charming and he always showed his gentleness.
But for now, she found that she did not really understand him.
She used another path intentionally to reach the administrative building. Josephâs sight fell on Kathy in a flash.
He frowned and left.
Kathy saw his tall silhouette, did not move her sights from him...
...
Friday had reached. This was a special day for the students in Ocean University, they were excited.
Recently, the Josephâs Group had gained high prestige, Joseph was popular. The new medicine introduced by him was successfully launched. Before he was going to give a speech, the campus had made a stir.
Zofia wanted to go earlier to grab a seat in the hall but Kathy did not have any action at all. Zofia walked towards her, âKathy, donât you want to listen to Josephâs speech in the hall?â
Kathy shook her head, âI am not interested in that.â
âReally? Is it because you donât want to see Joseph?â
âNo...â Kathy did not believe her own words as well.
She indeed did not want to see Joseph but in fact she wanted to go.
âOkay, itâs up to you. But he is the professor of neurology, youâre the student studying neurology. If you miss the talk, you are going to regret it.â
Zofiaâs words were lingering in her brain.
Kathy looked at the book in front of her, it gradually became Josephâs face.
She scratched her hair irritably, changed her clothes and carried her bag to go out.
It was late when she arrived. The hall had been occupied by a whale of students, there was no seat left.
Joseph had not yet come. Kathy walked around, the entrances were full of people and she could not find a way to enter.
It seemed chanceless to attend the talk.
When she wanted to go back, Mr Watson walked towards her.
âKathy, are you going to attend the talk?â
âYes, but there are too many people...â Kathy frowned.
âFollow me, there is a seat beside me.â
Kathy was relieved but she was nervous when thought of being brought in by Benedict.
There were so many people in the hall. Joseph wouldnât be able to see her, right?
But she did not expect Benedictâs seat was placed in the first row...
Initially, the seat was reserved for the dean but he suddenly went on a business trip...
âWhat is your opinion on the medicinal research that you take part in the Josephâs Group recently?â Benedict asked.
Kathy was his only student so far during that period, he treated her well.
He could also observe her potential.
âThe research teams of the Josephâs Group is the top in City N, I have learned a lot when I join them.â
âThatâs right. The Josephâs Group is mainly having research on neurological medicine now. You can follow Joseph and learn from him but I feel something awkward between both of you recently,â Benedict frowned.
If Joseph had a talk in Ocean University, as his wife, Kathy must have a seat but she stayed outside just now.
Kathy showed her stiff face. After a while, she said, âProfessor, we have divorced.â
Benedict was shocked. Actually, Joseph had made him surprised when Kathy married with him.
They had just married for a short period.
âI donât want to know about your personal thing but he is the specially invited professor at Ocean University now. You are unable to avoid meeting him in the future.â
âI know it, professor,â Kathy smiled, she did not want to make professor worry.
After a while, Joseph came. Kathy held her notebook and made notes throughout the talk without looking up. Josephâs nice and dull voice kept lingering in her ears. There were some moments that they looked at each other when she looked up.
He showed his indifferent expression and did not have much expression.
Kathy lowered her head, focused on the talk given by Joseph.
Some students asked question in the midst of the talk. Some even asked about Josephâs personal information boldly.
âMr Joseph, we hear that you get married already. Is your wife in the same career field as you?â
After hearing that, Kathy looked up instinctively.
She wanted to know Josephâs answer.
âYes, she has the same identity with you all. She is a student.â
Benedict was surprised, he turned his head and looked at Kathy. His sights were deep.
The talk was about to end. Joseph walked towards Benedict. Kathy wanted to leave instantly when the talk ended.
Benedict called her, âKathy, you stay here.â
Kathy stopped her steps after a fashion and Joseph...was just beside her.
But his sight did not fall on her.
Both of them discussed the professional problem, Kathy found it hard to get in the discussion. There was a lot of students gathered around Joseph, they intended to ask him different type of questions.
Kathy was shoved by the crowd. Joseph just stood beside her, she fell in the direction of where he stood when accidentally pushed by others.
She could smell the recognized odour, someoneâs arm held her steadily.
She looked up, Joseph was looking at her, he raised his eyebrow slightly.
âEverybody, please donât shove, I will be in the campus from today onwards,â Joseph smiled gently.
âYou have a lot of fans, I donât want to disturb you anymore,â Benedict looked at the crowd, shook his head and said, âProtect my student well.â

After that, Kathy was flushed.
What did Mr Watson mean...?
âProfessor, I will see you later.â
âMr Joseph, please let me go,â Kathy was still hugged by him, she felt uneasy.
Joseph frowned, âAre you sure that you can go out now?â
At least hundred students surrounded them.
âYes, you let me go first,â Kathy repeated her words.
Joseph did let go, but Kathy shoved by the crowd again when she stepped backwards and fell against Joseph.
