Kathy hugged her mother gently and tried to comfort her. She asked concerningly, âMom, are you hurt?â
âBilly still doesnât dare to hurt me, but you...â Jennifer shook her head.
âIâm fine.â
Kathy was going to go back to the university, but Jenniferâs emotion wasnât very stable right now. She decided to accompany Jennifer back to Boothâs old castle first.
Bertie was also accompanying them the whole time.
âThe Hilton group is now hanging by a thread and mom canât control Billy anymore. You should avoid meeting him for the time being,â said Jennifer.
Jennifer knew that Bertie had already sent some people to protect Kathy and hence she felt more assured.
Kathy nodded, âI know.â
âI will also send some people to track Billyâs whereabouts, Mrs. Booth. I wonât let him hurt Kathy,â said Bertie with his deep voice.
âThank you, Bertie.â
At Josephâs group.
John handed Kathyâs medical report to Joseph.
âMr. Joseph, I swapped the medical report beforehand.â
âOkay.â
Joseph answered indifferently and took the report from Johnâs hand.
Kathy did a brain CT scan during the checkup. He took out the CT image and took a good look at it. The expression on his face turned darker and darker.
âWho was the surgeon that did the surgery on the day of the accident?â
âIâll go check.â
âNo need, Iâll go to the hospital right now.â
He took long strides and quickly left after finishing his sentence.
On the way, John had found the list of the doctors that did Kathyâs surgery on the day of the accident. Joseph went up directly to the office when he got to the hospital.
Even though he wasnât a doctor anymore, but in the medical field, his skills were top-notch, and no one could surpass him.
John waited worriedly outside. Finally, after an hour, Joseph walked out with the doctor who oversaw the surgery that day.
âDo you have a cigarette?â asked Joseph.
This was the first time his boss asked such a question.
Joseph wasnât addicted to smoking and usually only had the cigarette in his mouth. He never actually smoked them.
John thought that maybe it was the same this time around. But to his surprise, Joseph started smoking the cigarette.
His expression was darker and sombre than ever There was also a hint of sadness and agony on his face.
John thought his eyes were playing tricks on him... But it was too real.
He instinctively moved to the side. Did something actually happen to Miss Kathy?
Otherwise, his boss wouldnât have switched her report into another one.
...
Recently, the Hilton group introduced a new medicine âLTâ into the market and their sales skyrocketed. They took over some of Josephâs groupâs market and managed to avoid the crisis.
Still, they were facing more than one problem right now.
Because of the problems from before, there was a large expenditure, and their funding was slowly depleting. They had to raise some money through financing, otherwise, the Hilton group wouldnât last much longer.
Billy went to the Booth group after his meeting.
He couldnât see Jennifer and so he waited downstairs.
It was already nighttime when Jennifer finally left the Booth group.
She saw Billy and her gentle expression turned darker.
âYou still have the guts to come and see me?â said Jennifer, her tone of voice was frigid.
âMom, I was wrong.â Billy didnât sound as arrogant as he was before anymore.
If he lost the Hilton group, he would lose everything.
âBilly, I know you want me to help you, but thatâs impossible.â Jennifer ignored him and left the Booth group.
Though Billy kept following her, he even stopped in front of her car to halt her in her tracks.
The driver stepped on the brakes abruptly and looked at Jennifer helplessly, âMiss Booth, Mr. Hilton is blocking the road...â
There was nothing Jennifer could do but to get off the car. She looked at Billy and felt a bit sorry for him.
After all, she brought him up and took care of him for so many years.
But she couldnât forgive what he did to Kathy.
She probably unintendedly influenced him, and it led him to take such extreme measures. One had to be cold-hearted enough to be able to maintain their power and position.
Now, Kathy was back, and Jennifer felt more compassionate than ever.
âBilly, give up on the Hilton Group. Iâll arrange something so that you can go overseas,â said Jennifer heavy-heartedly after a long pause.
âI only want the Hilton Group,â responded Billy coldly.
He didnât want to start all over again.
He initially thought that the Hiltonâs empire was not that weak. But Joseph did one thing after another to attack the Hilton Group and only then Billy realized that Joseph had everything planned out from the very beginning.
âMom, I just need some funds from the Booth group!â
âThe Hilton Group couldnât be saved anymore even if the Booth Group gives you some funding.â
Jennifer knew very well what was going to happen, judging by the situation.
Joseph was much smarter about his actions than Billy, Billy could never win this fight.
âYou just never believe in me!â Billy flew into a rage, âThe Hilton Group is slowly recovering recently, we will be able to turn the tides!â
âThe medicines that you guys developed recently are an imitation of the Josephâs Group product. It wouldnât be long until the administration of the medical products finds out about it. Billy, stop before itâs too late.â Jennifer tried to talk sense into Billy.
Billy might be charged with a crime if it went on like this.
âNo, I improved the recipe! It wasnât an imitation!â Billy tried to explain himself.
Jennifer had a cold expression on her face, âGo back, donât ever come to me for anything concerning the Hilton Group anymore. You should also not come to see me anymore. The Hilton familyâs fate is in your hands and I donât owe you anything.â
Jennifer got on the car indifferently after finishing her sentence.
She told the driver, âLetâs go.â
âBut...â
The driver looked anxiously upfront, Billy was still blocking the way!
âJust drive.â
Jennifer repeated herself. The driver could only grit his teeth and stepped on the pedal. Billy quickly jumped out of the way and all he was left with was smoke on his face.
...
As expected, the administration of the medical products came down with a verdict a few days after the Hilton Group was in a better situation.
The new medicine product âLTâ that Billy developed was an imitation product of the Josephâs Groupâs âLIâ. They were ordered to take their product off the market and the Hilton Group was hit with a penalty.
On the very day, the Hilton Groupâs stock crashed and hit rock bottom.
Zofia was watching the news about the Hilton Group intently every day, she earnestly wished for the Hilton Group to declare bankruptcy soon.
She was elated after seeing the news today.
Kathy heard Zofia making noises and went over to watch the news too.
The Hilton Groupâs situation was a rollercoaster ride for the past few days. The whole city was watching, but not one enterprise was willing to help them.
Everybody knew that the Hilton Group wouldnât last much longer.
Kathy looked indifferent, she couldnât feel strong emotions despite what was happening.
She thought Jennifer would give a helping hand since Billy was someone that she brought up, but it seemed like she wasnât planning to.
Kathy went to the hospital in the night to help Benedict out, she only left the hospital around midnight.
She didnât take a break the whole time and maybe because of that, her head started to throb. She had to squat down, and her face was turning pale.
The bodyguard who was protecting Kathy in the dark immediately walked up to her and contacted Bertie.
Joseph also got a call from a bodyguard, he also arranged some people to watch over Kathy, His face turned solemn knowing that Bertie was rushing to Kathy. He was still in a meeting and the other executives didnât dare to say anything after seeing his bleak expression.
Joseph rubbed his nose bridge and said coldly, âContinue.â
At the hospital.
The doctor was already in the wardroom and was doing a checkup for Kathy. He affirmed that Kathy had fainted due to low blood sugar.
âDid you eat anything today?â asked the doctor.
Kathy thought for a bit, âI havenât had dinner yet.â
There was too much stuff in her mind just now.
âYou must eat three meals on time, your body is still very weak right now,â said the doctor.

Kathy nodded, she could feel that recently her body wasnât as sturdy as it used to be.
But she was only 25 years old, why was she so weak?
