Chapter 264 It Was an Eye-opener for Her


    Joseph walked out of the office. Kathy was looking at her phone beside the office.


    "Why didn''t you let me know when you came over?" Joseph was a little dissatisfied.


    "I''m afraid of interrupting your work... just suddenly missing you a lot." Kathy took the initiative to hug


    him.


    And not far away, John silently lowered his head, while Edith''s gaze was very unpleasant.


    "I''ll eat with you first. I''m going to the researchb tonight, I''m afraid I can''t apany you." Joseph


    frowned.


    ns for the research and development were imminent and couldn''t be dyed.


    "But you cane with me."


    Theb is on the 21st floor, and Joseph had changed into ab coat and wore a mask, but the noble


    and indifferent demeanour was still impossible to ignore.


    Kathy has had previous exposure to drug research and development, and she could help with record


    keeping.


    When Edith saw that Kathy was also here, she was speechless.


    "Here''s the previous report, so familiarize yourself with it, and don''t give us any troubleter."


    Kathy indifferently said, "If there is anything wrong, I''ll ask for Ms Edith''s help."


    Joseph was already over there on the test bench, with Edith by his side, and they were both


    communicating in specialized terminology. However, Kathy had recently been reviewing her medical


    knowledge, so she understood most of it.


    As time passed, Joseph was experimenting with liquids. Edith''s hand suddenly trembled, and the


    liquids all poured onto her hand in a sh.


    Joseph was anxious, "Wash your hands immediately!"


    "It''s so hot... "Edith was terrified. She only realized now that the glove she wore was broken. The liquid


    had begun to erode her skin.


    Kathy immediately walked over and turned on the tap, and when she saw that Edith hadn''t moved, she


    grabbed her hand.


    "Ah! Get away from me!" Edith screamed and was about to retract her hand as she red at her.


    "This liquid must be cleaned and rinsed with an alkaline liquid mixture, Edith!" Kathy said seriously.


    Edith paused and quietly touched Kathy''s elbow with her hand that was drenched in the liquid, then


    continued to pretend to struggle.


    Joseph was annoyed. He prepared the alkaline solution, and when he saw that Edith was resisting, his


    hand reached over and sped her wrist, saying in a warm voice, "Bear with it."


    After he said that, Edith''s hand was rinsed with an alkaline liquid by Joseph.


    Due to the pain, Edith''s face gradually turned pale and onlyter did she slowly get used to it. Finally, it


    was not so burning, and herplexion returned to normal.


    But her other hand was always tightly gripping Joseph''sb coat.


    She subconsciously leaned into Joseph''s arms, "so painful..."


    Her voice was coquettish and provocative.


    Kathy frowned as she watched Edith''s actions, the displeasure in her eyes surfaced.


    Joseph washed her hands before letting her go, but Edith gripped him tightly and wouldn''t let go.


    "You''re not in good shape today. I''ll have Conor Nicholsone pick you up." Joseph got irritated and


    pushed her hand away mercilessly.


    Edith was confused. She usually never made these mistakes, but today, she was distracted.


    It was because Kathy was here too.


    "Sorry, I''ll reflect on it.”


    Kathy helped clean up the equipment, but Joseph stopped her, "I''ll do itter."


    "I''m not that squeamish," Kathy said coldly.


    Thinking about Edith''s panicked appearance just now was not the reaction that someone who had


    been in theb for a long time should have.


    She was purely trying to rely on Joseph.


    Kathy felt uneasy.


    She quickly left theb.


    Kathy knew that the two of them were only doing research together because of business, but that


    person was Edith.


    When Joseph came out, he didn''t see Kathy.


    It was raining outside, and he dialled Kathy''s phone, but it was turned off.


    Kathy was in the bathroom, and the liquid had just dripped onto her elbow as well, to a small extent, so


    she didn''t feel it just now.


    But now, it had corroded the skin.


    Her face turned pale, and she nned to go to the hospital immediately.


    But before she could leave the bathroom, Edith''s blocked her.


    Edith was on her heels, coldness spreading across her face.


    "Isn''t it ugly, Kathy?" The smile on her face was grim.


    Kathy shuddered, thinking of what had just happened, and she quickly realized.


    Edith deliberately got the solution onto her hand.


    "Why are you doing this?"


    "Well, because I don''t want to see you." Edith moved closer, "You''re an eyesore when you''re around


    Joseph!"


    The pain in her hand was amplifying. Kathy didn''t want to pay attention to Edith, she had to go to the


    hospital immediately.


    Edith sped her hand and dragged her back when she wanted to go out.


    Kathy raised her foot and kicked her hard in the leg.


    Edith wasn''t paying attention and almost fell over.


    She smiled as Kathy was going to open the door, "I locked it before I came in unless someone came by


    to open the door."


    Kathy pursed her lips and mmed the door hard.


    "Is anybody there..." she shouted, "Anyone, help!"


    But the only voice that responded to her was her own.


    Edith proudly walked over, "Don''t waste your energy, you''re definitely going to get a scar on that hand,


    it''s toote to go to the hospital."


    After that, Edith took out a bottle and vigorously sped Kathy’s hand, that is, to pour the solution onto


    Kathy''s face, she coldly said, "This stuff can turn your skin ck and rotten, how ugly do you think your


    face will be if it touches the solution, will Joseph still like you?"


    Seeing the solution was about to pour down, Kathy pushed her away hard, "Even if Joseph dislikes me,


    he won''t marry you."


    "Is that it?" Edith squinted, "The rtionship between Joseph and me can''t bepared to a woman


    like you. As long as I destroy you, I will have my way to marry him."


    Edith was a little taller than Kathy. With her chin mped by Edith, Kathy raised her hands.


    Kathy stared at her with a serious look on her face. Her hand rose up and sped Edith''s wrist back.


    The bottle fell from Edith''s hand, and Kathy immediately stepped back.

    The liquid sshed everywhere. Edith was wearing a short skirt, and a lot of it sshed on her calves


    because the wall was behind her.


    The hatred under her eyes surfaced. Edith ignored the liquid and picked the bottle up to desperately


    ssh at Kathy, "Get away!"


    Kathy lifted her leg and kicked her. Edith was unsteady in her heels and was about to fall backwards


    when Joseph walked in and caught her.


    Edith''spletely changed her attitude, and she immediately threw away the bottle of solution.


    Turning around and tightly gripping Joseph''s shirt, "Joseph, Kathy was so scary just now... That liquid


    was poisonous, and she wanted to ruin me..."


    Kathy leaned against the door handle, looking at the pale, panicked look on Edith''s face, her cherry lips


    slowly revealed a smirk.


    The act was a real eye-opener for her.


    "Edith, you''re the one who wanted to ruin me, you''re jealous that I''m Mrs Joseph," Kathy stated.


    She was calm, and she didn''t act like she was a victim.


    However, her clenched palm still showed her fear.


    If the solution did get on her face, the disfigurement would be the worst nightmare for a woman.
