My Sweetheart

Chapter 501 In the Future, I Will Come Back

Kathy immediately picked up, "How's Ella Bridges?"

"Kat, are you concerned about Ella, or about me?" Joseph joked about it.

"You, of course!"

"The situation is not too optimistic. Surgery is very risky, and medication is of minimal use."

"Then do you want to operate on her?" Kathy asked indifferently.

As a doctor, the patient's status would hardly be considered when treating them.

She also did not want him to do nothing and let Ella die.

"I'm not a doctor now. I couldn’t operate unless the hospital reinstates me."

"Joseph, you are using the Bridges family influence to reinstate yourself." Kathy guessed.

If he insisted on being appointed, Mathew’s punishment was nothing at all.

Only that it was now necessary to get Mathew to drop some of his guards.

That was why when Maria King proposed to him to treat Ella, he did not refuse straightaway.

"Reinstatement is one thing. But if I don't fight back, I’m afraid that grandpa will forget who is in power now." Joseph’s voice got serious.

Kathy froze, at this moment, Joseph suddenly felt like a stranger to her.

She had always thought of him as a doctor, but she had forgotten that he was also the president of Joseph’s Group.

After hanging up the phone, she laid on the bed. She thought of the conversation Jennifer Booth had just discussed.

When she returned to Ocean University, she wasn't even sure if she would have a tutor to take her on. But if not, she didn't want him to use his connections to help her anymore.

She had a sleepless night. Next day she got up and went to see Mr. Watson immediately.

Being in the same neighbourhood, she came over quickly, and the maid opened the door.

"Miss Kathy, Mr. Watson is waiting for you in the study."

She nodded her head. Her steps suddenly got a little heavy.

Although she had followed Benedict Watson for just half a year, she really enjoyed learning from him. In terms of both ability and level, he was the top professor. He treated people kindly and gently without being proud.

"Professor." Walking into the study, she suddenly got choked up.

She was able to control her emotions when she arrived, but as soon as she saw him, she couldn’t hold her tears.

He sighed and patted the seat beside him.

The decision to retire early was already long planned. But because he wanted to return the favour to Joseph, he took her as a student. But he didn't expect that there would be so many issues. And since she had transferred to another school, there was no need for him to stay.

"Kathy, do you miss me already?"

"Of course, professor, you are the best. You will always be the professor I respect the most." Kathy sucked in her nose.

The knowledge that he had taught her could be used for a lifetime.

"You're the smartest and hardest working student I've ever taken. I’m also upset, but it's just that the current rules at Ocean University are becoming more and more repulsive to me. And knowing that you were transferred for no reason, I quit in this anger," Benedict sighed.

He knew that now she could continue her classes. But without him, there may not be any professor that would be willing to take her as a student.

He felt a little guilty about it.

"I understand, professor. I may not return to Ocean University after all. I came over just to see you."

"You’re a very kind child. But you had some incident at Boston University. Although the matter was clarified, the university is still very sensitive. With your identity, I’m afraid that it won’t do you any good if you stay in the country. There may be better options if you go abroad."

"I understand, that's what I'm thinking now," Kathy said helplessly.

"But you will be separated from Joseph. Do you have any plans to remarry now?" Benedict asked with concern.

"It's not on the agenda for now. My studies are my top priority now."

"It's also not easy for Joseph. Now that he has taken over Joseph’s Group, it can be difficult to return to his profession as a doctor. You are all still young and have plenty of time. There is no need to rush."

After chatting with Mr. Watson all morning, he kept her for lunch.

When Joseph found out, he also came over.

Along with him was Keira, who had just returned.

Recently Julian had been sentenced to prison. Keira’s mood was still not very good.

"The house hasn’t been so crowded for a while." Benedict was thrilled. They were all settled down in the dining room, and he even opened a bottle of wine.

Joseph didn't brush off his wish and drank some with him. The two of them chatted about the hospital and school. Kathy learned a lot of embarrassing things about Joseph during his internship.

Although he was gifted and intelligent, he was used to thinking and asking good questions when he just started the hospital surgery. Many of his professors were confused by the many esoteric questions he asked, so much so that there was a time when only Benedict was willing to take him on.

He progressed rapidly. In less than a year after joining the hospital, he was already capable of performing surgery independently. He was the fastest promoted and youngest chief surgeon in the hospital.

Having completed his doctorate at the age of twenty-five, his resume was dazzling enough.

And now he had chosen to take over the family business, which Benedict was sorry to see in the end.

"You boy, are you not even going to come back to the hospital after this?" Benedict was already a little drunk, but he was having a good time as there were people to keep him company.

"In the future, I will come back," Joseph said in a loud voice.

He had never wanted to give up on being a doctor.

He always had his dream.

"That's good, that's good."

Benedict was completely drunk before letting Joseph leave. Keira helped her father back to his room, and when she saw the two were leaving, she politely said, "Thank you for keeping my father accompanied today, the house hasn't been this crowded for a long time."

Kathy smiled, "I promised Mr. Watson that I would visit him more often in the future. He is my professor and the person I respect the most."

Leaving the villa, the warm atmosphere from earlier dissipated and her heart felt so lost.

"I'm going back to the Booth family." Kathy didn't get into the car.

She wanted to be alone now.

Instead, Joseph held her hand and led her into the car without a word.

"Kat, I'm also surprised by Mr. Watson’s resignation," Joseph said in a deep voice.

She was silent and did not squeak.

Leaning against his arms, she was now confused about her future path.

"Thank you for allowing me to follow such a good teacher as Mr. Watson in the first place." Kathy was truly grateful.

Because of him, she had had such a wonderful experience.

"Benedict’s early retirement is a loss to Ocean University. But it's also about time for him to rest after so many years of hard work."

Being doctor and professor at the same time, their everyday life was a struggle. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"At Ocean University, do you have any favourite professors you would like to follow?" Joseph asked.

Kathy was silent, as there was really not any one of them.

"I probably won't stay at Ocean University," Kathy said seriously.

His gaze was cold.
