My Sweetheart

Just stepping into the living room, Kathy heard a particularly crisp laugh, "Brother Joseph is back!"
Kathy really got goose bumps when she heard ‘Brother Joseph’.
But this voice was very soft and clear, like a very innocent girl. It was hard to be disgusting.
But Kathy looked up and saw that the girl in front of her was very young and very familiar...
Her eyelids suddenly twitched.
Maryam... was Annika?
Many people knew this woman looked like her, but Mathew adopted her... His purpose was a little evident.
"Ms Kathy, long time no see." Maryam's smile was bright. When she smiled, her eyes and brows were like crescent moon. She
looked very pleasing.
When she finished speaking, she glanced at Joseph nervously again and her cheeks flushed slightly, "Brother Joseph."
Joseph just glanced at her indifferently, and took Kathy directly over her, walked onto the sofa, and stood in front of Mathew,
"Grandpa."
Kathy also spoke lightly, "Mr Mathew."
Mathew's gaze retracted from Maryam, and his face was displeased. "Joseph, Maryam was greeting you. What's your attitude?"
Joseph just said indifferently, "I always have this attitude."
He and Annika had never had anything to do with each other. Maybe they used to have some relations, but now they will not
have any relations.
But he didn't expect Mathew to adopt this woman.
His eyebrows knitted in a frown.
"You..." Mathew glared at him, obviously Mathew was angry.
Kathy thought, if in the past, she would definitely persuade Joseph not to do this.

"Grandpa, don't be angry." Maryam walked over at the right time and intimately helped Grandpa massage his shoulders, "Brother
Joseph's temper is like this, he doesn't specifically target me."
She had known Joseph's attitude before that.
He only showed his tenderness in front of this woman named Kathy.
Mathew seemed to be comforted by her. The anger on his face quickly eased a lot. He raised his hand to signal them to sit
down, and then said, "Joseph, I treat Maryam as a granddaughter. I also hope you can treat her as a younger sister."
Joseph even didn't look up. He just responded indifferently, which sounded very perfunctory.
Kathy clearly saw a flash of joy in Maryam's eyes. She naturally felt Maryam's love for Joseph.
Mathew's gaze fell on Kathy immediately. He spoke tonelessly and looked straight into her eyes, "Kathy, I'm sorry for what
happened before. Since you are still willing to be with Joseph, we are still a family, I hope you can forgive me."
Although Mathew's eyes were not warm or soft at this time, they were completely different from the indifferent and disgusting
eyes he used to see her. Although his attitude this time was indifferent, it sounded very sincere.
Maryam also laughed, "Ms Kathy has come back with brother, so she will definitely not blame you. Grandpa, don't worry."
Her smile was sincere and sweet, "Ms Kathy, I told grandpa that I will cook lunch today. Do you want to come with me?"
Kathy forced a smile, "Okay."
She pulled her hand out of Joseph's and whispered, "I'll go to the kitchen to help her."
Joseph lowered his head and kiss her cheek, "Good girl, just do what you like."
Watching the two women leave, Mathew picked up the tea on the coffee table and said lightly, "Now you are satisfied? I will settle
the matter of Reece, and he won't have the chance to frame Kathy again."
Joseph's deep gaze fell on his grandfather. Grandpa almost killed Kathy that time. He came back and knocked him over a pot of
daisies. It seemed that Grandpa's attitude had changed a little from that time.
"Joseph, Grandpa is not a hardhearted person." Mathew seemed to see through his mind and sighed softly. "I am nearing the
end of my life. I don't ask for much, my only hope is family reunion. Now there is Maryam, she is very good and well-behaved.

Since Kathy is okay now, I hope you don't hate me."
There was a trace of smile on Joseph's always indifferent and cold face, and his voice was low and powerful, "Grandpa, I love
her very much, so I hope you can really accept her."
Even if people all over the world objected them, he would never let Kathy go.
Even if he didn't care, he knew that in Kathy's heart, Mathew's hatred would be a difficult obstacle for her to pass.
"I'll deal with Reece. You don't need to do anything."
In the kitchen, Kathy was washing vegetables intently. Maryam's crisp and sweet voice fell into her ears from time to time, "Ms
Kathy, are you still... still hating Grandpa?"
Kathy was stunned. Hate him?
To be honest, she never hated Mathew.
Maryam put down the knife for cutting vegetables and said seriously, "Ms Kathy, I hope you don't hate grandpa. Although he
wanted to kill you before, the truth is that he is really a good person. He makes donations to the orphanage every year, and I
often go to the orphanage to see the orphans."
Maryam paused and said with her sincere eyes, " I think the reason he did this was because Veronica's death was a big blow to
him. In the past three years, he has been suffering from depression..."
"Depression?" Kathy was stunned. She never knew that Mathew had depression, and Joseph never told her.
Maryam nodded, "Yes."
There was a trace of pity on Maryam’s face, "I only know that some time ago he sent someone and almost killed you. Brother
Joseph came back and lost his temper. He kicked a pot of daisies that grandpa had been growing carefully and told grandfather
if grandfather still regards him as his grandson, then don’t hurt you anymore."
Kathy was shocked. He said such words to his grandfather?
Maryam continued to say, "Probably because of this incident, he takes the initiative to go to the hospital for psychological
consultation, and then he contacts me, an orphan. He wanted to find a sustenance, and then let go of the past."

Kathy didn't speak for a long time, just lowered her head and slowly washed the vegetables in her hands.
"So Ms Kathy." Maryam solemnly said, "I am very grateful to my grandpa for bringing me back and letting me leave the
entertainment industry, away from the turmoil, and gave me a home, a brother and a future sister-in-law. I really I hope that you
can bury the hatchet and forget about what has happened in the past."
Kathy didn't know what was wrong with her. After hearing what Maryam said, her first reaction was to subconsciously ask, "Don't
you like Joseph? Once we get together, you will have no chance."
Maryam blushed, and then said, "Girls always like a good man like Brother Joseph. But like him doesn't mean I have a chance. I
am very happy to be his sister. What I own was more than other people. That's enough."
Maryam's frank admission dissipated a lot Kathy's disgust towards her.
She put the washed vegetables in the basket, picked up the eggplant and washed it again, "It's getting late, let's cook."
Maryam smiled sweetly, "Okay."
Kathy washed the vegetables in her hands, and suddenly felt that the boulder that had been pressing on her heart seemed a lot
lighter.
