My Sweetheart
Chapter 41 I'm Not Familiar With You

Obviously, at this moment, the reporters below the stage were also surprised and had asked Julian what he intended to do.

He looked at the reporters around with a faint smile, "The Joseph's Group is now in charged by my younger brother. I am not related to the Joseph's Group anymore. Please correct my identity. I am now Hilton Group's deputy general manager." "No wonder Mr Joseph is not coming over. His brother even joined a rival company. He is too much." Sia huffed.

Kathy face was indifferent, even from a distance away, she clearly felt that there was hatred behind Julian's word for the Joseph's group.

He joined Hilton Group, so it was inevitable that they would work together to compete with the Joseph's Group.

Joseph was aware of this long ago. When he got off the plane, a bunch of reporters had surrounded the airport exit.

He was wearing black clothes and pants, releasing an intimidating aura.

He was so cold that people didn't dare to approach him.

"Mr Joseph, what do you think about Julian's move to join Hilton Group?"

"I heard that earlier, he wanted to seize your power, and you assigned him to North Africa. Did he come back to take revenge on you?"

"Hilton Group has always been Joseph's Group competitor. Now that Julian had joined Hilton Group, is he in the position to compete with the Joseph's Group?"

The reporters' words were harsher than one another, but Joseph remained calm, a cold aura spread from him.

The bodyguards were already opening the way for him. And just right before getting into the car, he gloomily said something.

"Whether it's the Joseph's Group or the family, there's no room for people who betrays."

The news screen was live. Kathy looked at the handsome man on the phone screen and smiled.

"Mr Joseph is so handsome! That scum, Julian, will definitely not threaten the Joseph's Group." Sia next to her was fantasizing. Joseph was really too handsome!

"Well, it definitely won't." Kathy nodded her head.

At this time, a figure came in front of her, and she looked at Billy Hilton, her eyebrows furrowed up.

"Joseph didn't come over, and he let you, his ex-wife, attend on his behalf?" Billy teasingly said.

"Billy, don't talk nonsense." Kathy raged.

"Is that so? I didn't expect you to be so dedicated to him even after your divorce." Billy narrowed his eyes coldly and sternly. Kathy didn't want to pay attention to him, turned around and planned to leave.

Sia was already waiting for her outside.

But Billy didn't let her go, "Since you're here, let's have a meal together later? It's with all well acquainted."

"Billy, I'm not familiar with you!"

"After all, you were my sister for a short time, so you won't even give me this face?" Billy's tone got more serious. Kathy sneered, "No."

She turned around and walked away fast.

Billy touched his chin with his long fingertips and thought to himself, this woman was still very smart.

He did not know Julian had come over until he turned around.

"Just a woman, when we defeat Joseph's Group, she will be obedient to you." Julian teased.

Billy sipped his wine. If it were any other woman, yes.

But that woman was Kathy.

He had known her for quite some time, and he knew her temper.

"Just a woman, would I care?" Billy coldly swallowed the full cup of wine.

In the afternoon, Kathy and Sia went back to the Joseph's Group together.

Joseph also returned at the same time. When Kathy got off the bus, she saw the tall figure from afar.

She had never thought that he wearing a black shirt could also look so charming.

She paused her steps, and Sia had already run up to him to report on the meeting just now.

Kathy also had nothing more to do, so she intended to go back to the Booth family.

But Sia called her back again as Joseph called for a meeting.

Kathy frowned, but even though she was reluctant, she went up to the office.

She was around Sia and barely spoke, listening to the two talking about the progress of drug development. Only occasionally did she answer when some topic came up. The tone and mood were always distant and cold.

"Kathy, you are in charge of this part, do you think you can finish this trial within this year?" Sia asked.

Kathy frowned and shook her head.

"I was not involved for much time. This year, I don't think so."

"What if it must be finished within this year?" Joseph looked at her.

"There are only five months left this year." Kathy frowned.

She didn't want to be sloppy just to catch up.

"Kathy, five months is quite some time. It only depends if you are willing to invest more time in this research and development." Joseph said frankly. Kathy pursed her lips, and her face turned pale.

She was a student at Ocean University, and she had a heavy study load. She only used her spare time to participate in the research and development. Now she had to shift all her focus over. She would definitely be even more overwhelmed.

"Is Joseph's Group short of manpower?" Kathy asked indifferently.

Sia's face instantly turned pale and worried for Kathy as she talked to Mr Joseph daringly.

Joseph coldly hooked his lips, "I think every company is very short of capable talents."

"Kathy, find some time to squeeze out to finish this trial earlier, okay?" Sia pulled her to her side and spoke softly.

Mr Joseph had spoken, and the order cannot be disobeyed.

Kathy looked at the man in front of her, bit her lip, and only after a while, she said in a faint voice, "I will try my best, but I can't promise to finish it this year." She never promised anything she wasn't sure of.

Sia looked at Joseph nervously. She could hear how dissatisfied Joseph sounded just now.

However, she thought that Joseph would at least reprimand Kathy, but he didn't.

"Well, I hope you won't let me down."

After they left the office, Sia was already in a cold sweat, but Kathy had a calm face.

"Kathy, how can you be so calm when you face Mr Joseph! And you also dare to refute him! I really admire you too much!"

Kathy smiled, "After all if you take responsibility on something that you do not have the confidence to accomplish, there may be a problem in the future."

"It's true, but Hilton Group has recently re-emerged. I think Mr Joseph now accelerates the project, to compete with Hilton Group." Sia thought.

"It's not for me to guess on the move made by the senior management."

After returning to the lab and finishing things up, it was already late at night. Bertie Marshall came by to pick her up tonight.

"Thank you for your trouble." Kathy frowned.

"You're working at the Joseph's Group now. I can usually pick you up and drop you off."

"I don't want to be that high-profile, Mr Marshall's car is so expensive." Kathy made an excuse.

It was very late now, however, if it was in the earlier time, there would be more Joseph's Group staff around the corner. There would be rumours if they had seen it. "Mrs Booth gave you a car, that car is more expensive than mine." Bertie smiled.

"I don't usually drive." Kathy shook her head.
