Chapter 67: 67 Joseph's Offer to Help

Kate did not want to lose her temper on an innocent person, especially the one who loved her. She replied to Cassie in a low voice, "I'm okay, Mom."

Cassie felt guilty that no one told her about the miscarriage, but at the same time if Kate didn't know, she didn't understand why she was so upset.

"I brought you some homemade soup. It has a lot of vitamins and nutrients to help you get better. Please, have some," Cassie pleaded. She was trying to comfort Kate and herself over losing the baby. Cassie hoped that Joseph would grow to love Kate if she was to have a child, but she had to push those feelings aside and help Kate recover as quickly as possible.

"Mom, I don't want to eat anything. I don't have any appetite," Kate was too upset to eat anything.

"That's not okay; you have to eat something so that you can recover," Cassie said gently, "Your mother told me that you are afraid of needles and taking medication. When you were younger, you would hide when the doctor came into the room. If you want to get out of here sooner, you must…"

Before Cassie finished her story, Kate began to hysterically sob again.

"Sorry, my dear. I did not mention your mother to upset you. I just want you to get better," Cassie tried to hold back her tears.

Joseph was sitting outside of Kate's room since the moment she asked him to leave. When he heard Cassie speaking anxiously, he rushed in, "What happened?"

"It's all my fault. I mentioned Flora and Kate became upset," Cassie said with guilt.

"Joseph, I have to go deal with something. I did bring Kate some soup though, can you please feed it to her?" Cassie wanted to create a give them a chance to bond.

"Okay," Joseph shook his head and agreed willingly.

Cassie was relieved to see the change in Joseph's attitude toward Kate. She leaned down and kissed Kate on the forehead, then turned to her son, "Take good care of her."

Even though Joseph hadn't slept the night before, Cassie knew he had to make Kate a priority. He also knew why his mother asked him to help, but at the same time, they both knew Kate didn't want him around.

He whispered, "Mom made this soup just for you. Please don't disappoint her."

Kate felt a little dizzy thinking about how loving Joseph was acting, but she was not going to let him see it. Without waiting for a response, Joseph sat next to her and held the spoon to her mouth.

"If you don't want the soup spit all over the bed, take it away. I don't want to be around you and two-faced personality," Kate said back immediately.

"Are you threatening me?" Kate asked.

"No, I just want you to recover quickly," Joseph replied.

"Recover quickly?" Kate sneered, "Don't you and Anna want me to die? Then there would be no obstacles for you to be together."

Kate suddenly grabbed her stomach and cried out in pain.

"Are you okay?" Joseph asked, then put the soup down and rushed to push the alarm next to Kate's bed.

After the doctor examined Kate, he told them, "You are very weak at this time, you should get too excited or upset."

"Are you still in pain?" Joseph questioned.

Getting no response from Kate, Joseph saw her pale lips and inquired, "Are you thirsty?"

However, there was still no response; Kate just closed her eyes. Knowing that he was doing no good for Kate, he went to the hall and called Lisa.

Lisa arrived a short time later; Joseph explained everything before she went in to see Kate. She walked in and hugged her friend, "Kate, I know you were sick a lot when you were young, but you have been doing so well. I hope it was nothing major, and you will be better soon, with my help."

Then she picked up the soup to feed Kate, saying, "This is my first time feeding someone. I will try not to spill it on you!"

Though Lisa was said smilingly, Kate could see tears in her eyes.

"Why are you crying?" Kate asked.

"I…I'm not crying," Lisa felt more distressed when Kate noticed her upset. It was the first time she ever lied to her best friend, but she knew what Kate had gone through, and she couldn't help but feel bad for her.

"I like you feeding me," Kate smiled and opened her mouth for another bite.

Joseph stood outside the door, watching and listening to the two friends talk. He was relieved when he saw Kate finally willing to eat; then, he spun around when he heard someone walking up the hallway toward Kate's room. He was livid when he saw Samuel with a large bouquet of lilies.

Samuel didn't say a word, he just tried to step around Joseph, but he was stopped. Joseph was worried that Samuel would say something to upset Kate, so he snapped, "You better not disturb her. The doctor said that she is not emotionally stable at this time."

"You are worried about her now? What about what did you to her before?" Samuel sneered.

Out of frustration and worry for Kate, Joseph demanded, "You need to get out of here right now!"

"Get out of here?" Samuel laughed, "You think you own the hospital? You have no right to ask me to leave. I came here to visit Kate, as you know we have been getting along very well. We even had dinner together the other night."

"What?" Joseph was surprised; he never even suspected that they were out together.

"I don't think neither Kate nor I need to tell you about it. After all, we have done many things that you don't know," Samuel was trying to aggravate Joseph, and when he saw Joseph's expression, he knew he succeeded. He laughed, "Okay, Joseph, if you won't allow me to visit Kate while she is here, I will just have to wait for her to be discharged."

Samuel handed the lilies to a nurse who was walking by, then pointed to Kate's room, "Please ensure that she receives these. Thank you!"

Knowing that Samuel and Kate had met behind his back, left Joseph feeling jealous. He was even more bitter when he heard the nurse tell Kate, "Hello! A young man asked me to bring these to you!"

"What was his name?" Kate was surprised that whoever sent them didn't bring them himself.

"I don't know. He just handed me the flowers and walked away. Your husband was talking to him and didn't seem very happy," the nurse whispered.

"Not very happy?" Kate and Lisa both said at the same time. They looked at each other, both knowing it was probably Samuel.

"Kate, you have no male friends. I cannot think of anyone but Samuel, and it is obvious that Joseph doesn't like him," Lisa pointed out.

"I will put the lilies here, Lady Kate!"

Kate thanked the nurse before she walked out.
