My Sweetheart

Chapter 595 The Distance Between Him and Her

The next day, Kathy was informed that there was going to be an academic exchange meeting centering on neurosurgery in the Westlife Hotel. As an attending doctor, she would attend the meeting on behalf of the hospital.

Kathy got the schedule from her assistant Vivian. The meeting would last for only one day, but definitely a busy day judged from the full schedule.

Unexpectedly, she saw Joseph's name on the list.

He....

Nothing surprising. He was a professor of neurology and it was in Country F right now, so he wouldn't miss such a meeting.

The possibility of meeting Joseph aroused complex feelings in Kathy.

There was fear, but more joy.

After washing up, Kathy went downstairs. Jennifer and Karl would fly to the Maldives for their honeymoon today. For the next half month, there would only be she and Reece.

"Going back to the hospital today?" Reece asked.

"I'm going to the Westlife Hotel for an exchange meeting."

"I'll drive you there."

Kathy nodded. For the past three years, it had always been this way between them. Kathy seldom rejected Reece, but she was lukewarm or even indifferent all the time.

Reece didn't know how to change her.

Upon arriving at the Westlife Hotel, Kathy saw the figure from afar as soon as she got off the car.

He was wearing the usual white shirt and black trousers. Only his back was radiant enough to eclipse others. Kathy was caught at the first glance.

Retracting her gaze, Kathy walked into the hotel quickly.

The conference hall was crowded with doctors and scholars from other cities. Kathy had known some of her peers in the past few years, so it could distract her a little talking to people around her.

However, the figure walking towards her was somewhat familiar.

She thought for a while before she was sure that it was Sonny...

When she was taken away from City N, Reece did not allow her to say goodbye to anyone. She lost connection with almost everyone she knew in City N, except some very good friends.

"Kathy? I thought my eyes went wrong." Sonny said with a bright smile.

After three years, this man had become more mature and handsome. He had changed.

"Long time no see." Kathy smiled faintly.

"It's been a long time. You disappeared so suddenly back then. Later it said that you went to another campus. I didn't know I wouldn't see you again." Sonny said regretfully.

"Yes, there was indeed something emergent back then. Where do you work now?" Kathy did not want to talk about the past, she changed the topic.

"In a subsidiary hospital of University F."

Looking at Kathy, Sonny held the document in his hand nervously, "Kathy, are you going back to City N?"

Hearing this, Kathy replied without hesitation, "No."

Jennifer married Karl. Kathy was now a member of the Bridges family, which was rooted in Country F. Probably he would not return to City N.

She didn't want to go back there herself. Joseph was already married. City N had become a nightmare for her.

"I got it." Sonny's eyes flashed with disappointment.

"I have to take care of something. Excuse me for a moment." Kathy smiled, and went to sit down on the other side of the hall quickly.

However, she saw the handsome man sitting in the first row immediately.

It was like Kathy would always be able to spot him at the first second wherever he was. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

This was no good.

She shook her head, tried to kill all the woolgathering, and told herself to concentrate.

She couldn't be distracted by Joseph.

This speech was being given by Joseph. Kathy kept her head lowered, but listened attentively and took notes carefully.

It had been three years, his status in the medical field still unshaken. He was the idol of countless medical students, an authoritative professor of neurology, with his reputation spreading throughout the world.

The distance between her and him still seemed so far.

Until the end of the meeting, Kathy kept being absent-minded. A phone call from the director of the hospital called back her senses.

"Doctor Kathy, I sent you a few files by email. I'd be very grateful if you could bring them to Professor Joseph for his signatures. I've already talked with him."

This request made Kathy very embarrassed. She didn't want to have any contact with Joseph now.

"It's rare to have Professor Joseph's presence. You should talk with him. It will do you a lot good." The director and Joseph were old acquaintances. He appreciated and even admired a genius in the medical field like Joseph.

"Alright." Kathy replied helplessly.

She went to print the files first and then returned to the conference hall.

However, Joseph was nowhere to see, she only saw John.

She walked over and asked, "Assistant John, I need these papers signed by Professor Joseph."

John was not surprised to see Kathy. The only reason why Joseph attended this meeting was because Kathy was here.

"Ms Kathy, Mr Joseph is in the presidential suite of this Hotel. You can go find him yourself."

"It's not so convenient for me. Will you help pass these files to him?" Kathy handed the papers over.

John became very embarrassed. He didn't dare to take this job...

"Ms Kathy, I'm sorry."

Seeing John's reluctance, Kathy was a little irritated.

She could still clearly recall being trapped in Joseph's arms yesterday when she saw him. He had become so strange that she did not dare to approach him.

But thinking of the director's words...

She didn't dare to disobey him.

She dawdled out of the conference hall and took the elevator to the top floor.

Her phone in the bag was ringing. It was Reece's call.

"Is the meeting over? I'll be there to pick you up."

"Almost."

"Alright, I'm coming from the Bridges Group now."

"Alright."

After hanging up the phone, she bit her lips nervously and walked out of the elevator.

When she was standing in front of the tightly shut door, her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her chest.

Her hand was raised and then put down. She just didn't have the courage to knock on the door.

The phone rang again, Reece had already arrived here.

Kathy frowned and pumped herself up. Just as she was about to knock, the door opened from the inside.

It wasn't Joseph who came out, but Zofia.

Kathy looked at her legs subconsciously. She had noticed that Zofia could stand up at her mother's wedding. But she was still a little surprised seeing Zofia standing in front of her.

Moreover, she came out from Joseph's room.

With a pale face, Kathy looked at Zofia's bright smile while the latter said softly, "Joseph, it's Kathy."

After that, Zofia walked past her. A faint fragrance of perfume flew to Kathy, who felt somewhat disgusted.

Kathy's feet were stiffen at the door, and she seemed to be unable to enter the room somewhat.

Until a low voice came to her, "Is there anything?"

Kathy raised her eyes and saw the man in white shirt and black trousers sitting on the sofa. He was not looking at her.

"Yes." She lowered her head and hurried in, hoping to make everything fast.

However, the sound of the door being closed behind made her a little uneasy.
