Chapter 85: 85 What did Joseph do?!?

"I am sorry to bother you, Kate. Two of my friends are drunk; I'm worried about them. Would you please check on them and make sure they are okay? They are at a pub not far from your house," Lisa explained which pub and told Kate to take Daisy with her.

"Drunk? Who is it?" Kate wanted to know before she left her house.

"Well, it is…" Lisa said cautiously, "It is Nick and Joseph!"

Kate sat up when she heard Joseph's name.

"Kate, I didn't call you to save Joseph. Nick asked me to pick him up, I owe him, but as for Joseph, you could just pretend that it is someone you don't know," Lisa commented, worrying that she would upset Kate.

"It is no problem, I will leave right now," Kate said casually, but her heart was pounding.

Since it was late, Kate didn't want to disturb Daisy, so she decided to go to the pub alone. The crisp autumn air felt good on Kate's face as she hurried toward the pub. When she arrived the man at the front door told her that Joseph and Nick had left.

"Left?" Kate asked the man. She had spoken to him many times before when she and Lisa were there.

"Mr. Wilson was picked up by his friends while Mr. Smith left with a beautiful woman…" He quickly stopped what he was saying because he knew that Joseph and Kate were married. He followed up with, "I have never seen Mr. Smith so drunk before!"

A ton of different scenarios ran through Kate's head. She quickly looked around on the street for the woman and Joseph but did not see any sign of them. She wondered if Joseph made it home safely; she took out her phone to call him but hesitated. Kate remembered they were divorced and had no reason to care about him, yet she was still worried. After struggling with her thoughts, Kate decided to go home.

Lisa was patiently waiting next to her phone, but when Kate didn't call within twenty minutes, she called her, "Kate, what happened? Did you find the two drunk idiots?"

"They were already picked by someone else when I arrived. I'm not sure whether they got back home safely…"

"Well, I'll call Nick to see if he is okay, and you should call the Smith mansion," Lisa said and hung up.

Kate sat on her bed, debating with herself if she should call Joseph or not. She thought if she did call, he might think she still cared, but if she didn't, she would worry all night. After thinking about what might have happened to him and telling herself that she needed to follow her heart, she decided to call.

"Hello?" Amy answered the phone. "Who is calling? It is the middle of the night."

"Amy, did Joseph get home?" Kate said in a calm voice.

"Did you mean that Joseph has gotten home safely?" Kate demanded. After living in the same house as Amy for two years, Kate knew that if Joseph weren't home, she wouldn't have been so calm.

"Yeah, Lord Joseph came home, but not alone. He is with Miss Anna in his room. Do you want to know what they are doing? I am sure I can give you a live show!"

Immediately, it felt as if Kate's heart was ripped out and stomped on. She tried to remind herself that it was only a matter of time before he and Anna were back together.

Kate Smith, you were only dreaming. You should have known they would be together; Joseph was looking forward to the divorce. It is pointless for you to be hurt by this.

While Kate tried to find the words to reply, Amy continued to taunt her, "If I were you, I would move on too. After all, Lord Joseph doesn't love you!"

"Thank you for reminding me. It's really hard to stop worrying after so long," Kate hung up on Amy. She threw her phone down on the bed beside her and tried to hold back her tears.

Kate woke up at 10:00 a.m., she had planned to be at White Group early that morning but going to bed so late disrupted her plans.

When she went downstairs to get breakfast, Daisy was in the kitchen, "Good morning, Kate. Mr. White said that you should stay home and get a good rest until you are feeling better. He explained that he could manage the company until you are feeling up to it."

For a moment, Kate was distracted by work and forgot about Joseph and Anna. She asked Daisy, "Did you find someone to help take care of Dad?"

"Yes, I am actually meeting with a few people this morning. You could interview them if you like. We can hire them if they are qualified and will be a good match, or I will continue looking."

"Thank you for everything you have done, Daisy," Kate smiled.

"Don't mention it! I am happy that you moved backed and those two bitches are gone. Peaceful and beautiful days are ahead!" Daisy exclaimed.

"Yeah, it's nice to have each other," Kate replied. Daisy smile warmed her heart, "Frustrated with love but proud of friendships. I never thought I would be lucky enough to have two great friends like you and Lisa by my side."

"Don't be sad; you are a terrific woman. You will definitely meet your Mr. Right in the future," Daisy said to cheer Kate up.

"Come on; you are old enough to be in love for the first time!" Kate teased.

"Oh, Kate, don't mention first love. I..."

"You what...? Is there someone you like?"

"NO, NO… I... I'll try my best to find someone."

It was lunchtime before Joseph opened his eyes and felt a soft, naked body next to him. He looked at her face and immediately pushed her away.

"Why are you here?"

Anna fell off the bed, said with a trembling voice, "Joseph...you drank too much last night. Nick called me, and I picked you up from the pub..."

Nick, that bastard! Who asked him to call Anna? Joseph cursed in his head.

"Did I do something last night?" After calming down for a while, Joseph Smith asked coldly. He knew he was in a bad mood when he went to meet Nick, and the last thing he remembered was drinking a lot of wine.

Anna looked at him nervously, biting her lower lip, lowered her head in silence.

"Speak!" Joseph ordered.

"Joseph, you should know that I won't hold you responsible. I was willing to do it with you. For many years, I wanted to. I was waiting for you…"

"Shut up!" Joseph yelled as he lifted the blanket to get up. He did a double-take when he saw bloodstains on the white bed sheet; it was as if a needle was piercing him in the eye. He never thought he would be drunk enough to do something that absurd.
