Chapter 226: 226 Pressure from Vincen

"Well, I guess that Kate's heartlessness influenced him," Daisy slumped down on the sofa, staring out the window.

Kate called Joseph after dinner, but her call wouldn't go through. She called his house only for Ricky to say that he hadn't arrived home yet. She wondered where he was, he usually took the time to contact her.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Anna rushed to open it, then shouted, "It's Joseph!"

Joseph outside the door nodded slightly, and then looked inside the house.

Anna smiled and pointed to the living room, "Sister is in there, and she lost her mind after dinner. I am guessing that she is thinking of you right now. Come in, please!"

"Okay," Joseph walked in and saw Kate getting up from the sofa. He asked, "What is the matter?"

Kate thought he was working overtime or having dinner with clients, she didn't expect he would show up at her house.

"Nothing," She shook her head, "I thought you were busy tonight."

Joseph narrowed his eyes and asked uncertainly, "Unhappy to see me?"

"It's not that, I just..." Kate saw Anna standing in the room, she didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable so she changed the subject, "Did you have dinner?"

"Let's go," Joseph understood about Anna, plus his only purpose was to take her back to his house.

"Where?" She questioned.

"Home," Joseph put his arms out to pull her close.

Anna buried her head in embarrassment, and comment, "Sister, just go! You don't have to worry about me, but let me know if you are going to be back tomorrow and I will prepare dinner."

"She will be staying with me," Joseph answered.

"Uh..." Anna looked up in surprise, there was a redness on her cheek.

After getting in the car, Kate couldn't help but complain, "I didn't say I would stay with you, but you thought it was okay to make that decision for me?"

"You don't want to go back with me?" He raised his eyebrows.

Kate saw him frown, and said with a smile, "I am here! That means I accepted your answer."

A huge grin appeared on Joseph's face, "That is great!"

The next morning, Joseph got up early to make breakfast. By the time Kate got up breakfast was waiting for her on the table but she did not see Joseph.

"Where is Joseph?" She asked Ricky.

"Miss Kate, there were urgent documents to deal with at Smith Group, so Lord Smith had to leave. He told me to make sure you had breakfast."

After breakfast, she was ready to leave for Kate Group. Before she had time to get in her car, a black car pulled up and Vincent stepped out.

"Grandpa," She greeted politely.

Vincent looked at her seriously and asked, "You have something to do?"

Kate believed that he came here so early for something and then replied, "Nothing important. What is going on?"

"If you're not busy, then let's go back into the house. We should talk," Vincent suggested.

Kate figured since Joseph wasn't home, she should help him with whatever he needed. She was about to make coffee but Vincent comment, "Don't worry about that, just have a seat!"

"You know, Joseph has taken over Smith Group again," The old man sounded angry.

"Yes, I do," Kate replied calmly. She didn't understand why Vincent was angry, having Joseph take over was what he wanted. She assumed it was something else making him angry, she became even more anxious.

"So, you should understand that he is now working for Smith Group, JK Group, and your Kate Group?" Vincent commented with more anger.

"Of course, I know," Kate replied, beginning to understand what Vincent was hinting at.

"Since you know, why don't you take care of him?" Vincent snarled, his rage suddenly filling the room.

Kate clenched her hands and carefully said, "I didn't..."

"Leaving a ton of work at Kate Group for him every day, is that your concern?" He shouted, "From now on, you need to be in charge of everything at Kate Group. Don't trouble Joseph anymore!"

"I…"

"Don't make excuses; just do what I say!" Vincent didn't give her a chance to argue at all.

It was not the first time that Kate saw him act like that. She always knew he was not one to consider other's opinions, so it was pointless to say anything. She could also see that words he promised Joseph meant nothing, there was no way he would stay away from Smith Group.

"Grandpa, do you remember what you promised Joseph?" Kate asked with all her courage.     

Vincent was livid, "You are not a member of our family any longer. Why do you think you have the right to ask such things?"

"Grandpa, you are right. I'm not married to Joseph now, and I'm indeed not a member of your family, so you have no right to interfere with my affairs," If she didn't respond, Vincent would think he won.

Kate was aware that Joseph was tired, and she worried about him. If Vincent was as concerned about him, she would agree without saying a word. However, Vincent was just being selfish, he wanted Joseph to put all his time and effort into Smith Group.

Her words infuriated Vincent. He raised his cane to hit Kate, but she was able to move away quickly. He snarled, "You dare to run from me!"

"I am not a fool, why would I allow you to hit me?" Kate said, offending him. Every word she spoke was targeted at him, "You are Joseph's grandfather, but that does not mean that we have to support you regardless of whether you are right or wrong. Besides, there is a serious miscommunication between Joseph and you. If you don't seriously think before you act, I am afraid that Smith Group will…"
