âTen years ago, he pushed our mother off the eightieth floor with his own hands,â Joseph spat word by word, as murder slowly spread through his eyes.
Kathy was completely thunderstruck this time. Even as she thought about that scene, she felt horrible.
That was his birth mother, how could Julian do that!
How could he be so cruel!
âI saw it with my own eyes but I couldnât stop him,â Joseph voice was tainted with pain.
Kathy heart ached and she hugged Joseph on her own accord, she should not have brought this up.
This was Josephâs nightmare.
He did not want to remember it for all his life, yet he must remember.
Only then could he avenge his mother!
âItâs over now Joseph, Julian will be punished,â Kathy mumbled.
She felt horrible too, thinking that twenty years ago, Joseph was merely a child.
Yet he saw a scene like this with his own eyes, his mother was murdered before him...
If she had faced this, it would have been the pain that she could not handle in her life.
She could not help but cry silently, as her heart ached.
âYes,â Josephâs emotions calmed down fast.
Before meeting Kathy, these scenes appeared in his dreams every night.
But then she came to be by his side.
He finally could have her.
Lifting her chin, he kissed away her tears lightly, carefully. She was the person he loved the most.
She was the apple of his eye.
He could not bear to see her cry.
âDonât cry, alright?â His scratchy voice resonated in her ear.
Kathy nodded, she would not cry.
Her moist eyes looked at Joseph as she held onto his face, âJoseph, Iâll always be by your side when youâre feeling down afterwards.â
Joseph replied her with a deep kiss.
He held onto her tightly, his force was as if trying to mould her into his bones.
...
The Booth Mansion.
Jennifer had just come back from the Booth group, when there was a familiar figure sitting in the living room.
She halted in her footsteps as she raised her eyes, looking at Billy in surprise.
He was wanted by the whole city, yet he dared to come back!
Jennifer was furious, but looking at Billyâs helpless demeanour, she could not bear it.
âYou shouldnât be here, Billy,â Jennifer looked at him coldly.
Billy laughed coldly, he no longer had his previous proud stature now. His shirt was wrinkled, the beard on his face was not cleaned for a long time.
He was extremely disgraced.
âMum, Iâve been by your side for so many years. Can you really bear to watch as Iâm sent to prison?â
Billy roared, his eyes filled completely with hate.
Jennifer pursed her lips, it would be false if she had not softened.
But now, Billy already had no other options.
âI warned you, youâre no match for Joseph,â Jennifer sighed.
âI was framed!â Billy shouted in a craze.
âYou did break the law,â Jennifer frowned.
Billyâs face was taut, âThat was Joseph who forced me to! Or else there wonât be any investors to invest in the Hilton group. Mum, this was because you didnât help the Hilton group!â
Jennifer lowered her eyes as she sat on the couch, her face became pale.
âWhat do you want?â
âHelp me to leave City N.â
âJosephâs influence is all over the city, I canât do so.â
âReally?â
The next second, Billy actually took out a knife and he shot towards Jennifer, holding her down. The edge of the knife was held against Jenniferâs throat.
âMum, I want to leave City N!â
Jennifer was still rather calm as usual. Billy was a child that she had taught, and she admitted that it was due to her negligence in teaching that caused him to become like he was today.
âAlright, wait for me here, Iâll arrange now.â
âWouldnât it be nicer if you agree earlier?â Billy smiled coldly.
Yet he did not let go of Jennifer.
âArrange this by phone call!â He ordered.
Jennifer took out her phone and dialled her assistantâs phone number.
The private jet would immediately land on the top floor of the Booth mansion, only that Billy let her go.
Jennifer fell onto the couch, looking at Billy with full disappointment in her eyes.
âDonât look at me like this, when I leave here I still need a sum of money,â Billy threatened.
âFine.â
At this moment, Jennifer had no other choice.
âBut you and I have long broken off ties,â Jennifer said coldly.
Further, it was Billy who proposed this on his initiative.
âAfter leaving City N, I wonât bother you anymore,â Billy sneered.
He would not return before he had made his comeback.
Jennifer was silent, watching as Billy walked up the roof step by step. The private jet was already there.
The phone call to the police was already connected. Hesitation flashed through her eyes, but at last she told the police Billyâs whereabouts.
She watched as the private jet rose, as Billyâs head came out, âMum, this time we would really no longer have any relations.â
Jennifer was expressionless. She turned and the butlerâs figure came running hurriedly.
âMadam, youâre wounded!â
Jennifer came to her sense, and she finally realised that her neck was lightly slashed by Billy.
âIâm fine.â
âYou should probably still go to the hospital to take care of it!â
When Bertie had just arrived at the City N Hospital, he received a call from the butler that Jennifer was wounded.
At this moment in Kathyâs ward, she heard so too.
âWhatâs wrong with Mum?â
âBilly came to the Booth Mansion and took Mrs. Booth as hostage,â Bertieâs expression was heavy.
âLet Mum come over to the City N Hospital then!â said Kathy.
âIâm already arranging it, donât worry.â
At this moment, Bertieâs assistant knocked on the door from outside.
âMr. Marshall, news just came by, Billy was already arrested.â
As he heard this, Bertie heaved a sigh of relief.
Jennifer must have tipped the police off.
âKeep a tight watch on Billy,â Bertie ordered.
Kathy was worried about Jennifer, she did not want to know how Billy was.
Not long after, Jennifer came to the hospital. Kathy went to the consultation room under the company of Bertie.
âMum!â Seeing the blood on Jenniferâs neck, Kathy was even more worried.
The doctor handled it fast and stopped the bleeding, but Jenniferâs face was still very pale.
Kathy held onto her hand, she felt clearly that her mother was shaking.
âItâs alright, mum.â
âIâve made you worried, Kathy,â Jennifer smiled.
âHow did Billy get into the Booth mansion?â
âHe must have broken the curfew to get in, and also calculated that I would go back at that time. He must have been arrested now.â
âMrs Booth, Billy has already been arrested. The police have confirmed that he cannot be bailed out, you can relax,â Bertie replied from the side.
âI didnât expect that he would hate me so much,â said Jennifer silently.
Thinking of the hatred when Billy was threatening her, her heart still ached a little.
This child had been under her care since young, naturally she would care.

Just that for his personality to become like this, it somewhat had something to do with her.
Kathy held onto her motherâs shaking hands and comforted, âSince Billy broke the law, it would be a wrong choice by his own.â
âWhen he did something like that to Veronica, I shouldnât have tolerated him,â Jennifer shook her head in disappointment.
âDonât put the blame on yourself, Mrs. Booth. Itâs over now,â Bertie too replied.
Not far away, Joseph looked at the trio from afar. This scene was too much like a family.
His expression tightened and was extremely dark.
After a while, he returned to his own office.
