Chapter 66: 66 Nobody Knew

Kate was happy to see he was there for her, but then she remembered he reprimanded her on the phone. She turned her head in the other direction so that she didn't have to see him.

Since you do not believe me, why are you here? It is just to compensate for what Anna has done? Kate thought to herself.

Suddenly, Kate remembered how Anna pulled her hair and punched her in the stomach. The fury began to flow through her body.

"Thank God! You are awake!" Joseph cheered with sleepy eyes.

Kate didn't acknowledge him; she just looked out the window.

"Are you in pain?" Joseph asked.

Kate still did not answer.

Receiving no response, Joseph said gently, "You can keep silent if you don't want to talk to me, but I will still be here with you."

No matter how gentle he was, she still did not want to say anything. His attitude on the phone explained everything. Even if it was a careless reaction, he needed to learn the consequences of what he said. Joseph always believed Anna, not her; she had believed him when he said she could tell him anything.

Kate's nurse gave her more medication, and before long, she was asleep again. Joseph gently stroked her face and looked at her stomach, thinking of the life that had been inside. He thought he was going to be a father, but he could only mourn for the child he would never know.

"Kate!" Lisa pushed open the door and ran to her bedside.

"Shhh!" Joseph placed his index finger on his lips in a hurry to signal Lisa to keep her voice down.

Lisa covered her mouth immediately. She saw how weak and pale Kate looked; she whispered, "Is she okay? Why does she look so sick?"

Joseph signaled that they should talk out in the hall. Lisa had been trying to reach Kate, but she didn't answer, Lisa called Joseph, who explained Kate was in the hospital.

"Joseph, Kate is very healthy; she only lost some blood. Why does she look so weak?"

Joseph lowered his head and said, "She is not sick. She accidentally fell and had a miscarriage."

"What?" Lisa shouted out of shock, then brought her hand you to her mouth. She whispered, "You mean, Kate was pregnant?"

"You didn't know?" Joseph was confused.

"I didn't know," Lisa shook her head. After a moment, she questioned him, "You didn't know? You are her husband, isn't that something you should realize?"

Joseph thought Kate just kept it from him on purpose before. He never expected that she even kept it from her good friend.

She choked, "But now, in less than two months, she lost her grandmother and now her baby. She was eager to divorce you, but your mother begged her to wait. She agreed because of your mother's kindness and the fact that she does love you. Except now, she has nothing, no grandma, no baby, and no marriage. Joseph, you may be an excellent businessman, but you are not a good husband. You do not deserve Kate or her love."

Lisa cried, "In my eyes, she is a very kind person. Even if she accidentally stepped on Alan's paw, she apologized. Yet, in your eyes, she is an evil killer. You have abused her, and still, she loves you…"

The upset was too much for Lisa; she was crying so hysterically that she could not speak. She wanted to say so much more, but she hoped what she said was enough for him to understand.

"You are right. I'm not a good husband," Joseph said regretfully. He thought about how Kate regarded Alan as her own, even though he tried to keep them apart, Alan still wanted to play with her. However, he had not considered that before accusing her of hurting him. He didn't realize how much it would have upset her.

Lisa stared at Joseph and hemmed, "I think you might actually feel guilty. Surprise!"

"Lisa, I hope will you not to tell Kate about the miscarriage. She is so weak, and I don't know if she could handle the news," Joseph said.

"You think about caring for her when she is hurt! I hope that doesn't change. And, no, I will not tell her. As her best friend, I don't want her to be hurt anymore," Lisa replied softly.

"Thank you!" Joseph touched her arm with kindness.

Lisa was shocked by his tender action; she never imagined that he would be so loving.

He would never stoop so low as to say thank you or sorry. Yet, he is standing here, apologizing to me. Does this mean that Kate may hold a special place in his heart? Anyway, it doesn't matter; I just hope Kate will recover soon. Lisa thought to herself.

Later that afternoon, Kate woke up when she felt a nurse touching her hand. The first thing she saw was the nurse putting another IV into her hand; she shut her eyes out of fear.

Joseph noticed she was scared and reached his hand out to hold hers. Feeling the warmth on her skin, Kate's eyes flew open, but Joseph quickly turned her head to look at him so that she would not see the needle the nurse had.

"It's okay; just look at me," He tried comforted her, but Kate still did not want to talk to him.

"Do you want to eat something? I can…" Joseph asked.

"Get out!" Kate shouted coldly.

"The doctor said you are weak, and you need someone to take care of you."

"I wouldn't want to bother you!" Kate thought he was being insincere, "I will only feel weaker if you are around."

Kate tried to pull herself out of the hospital bed, but she had no strength.

Joseph didn't want to aggravate her further, so he agreed with her demand, "Okay, I will leave. You need to relax and not get upset."

As he walked to the door, Kate turned to see him leaving. When she was alone in the quiet room, she began to sob. Her mind filled with everything that had happened; Alan dying suddenly, her father hitting her, Anna bullying her, and Joseph not believing her. The tears flowed, and she could not stop them.
