My Sweetheart novel Chapter 315

Joseph frowned, looked at the playground then strode over to the equipment room.

With the help of some students, he found the equipment room. As it turned out, there really is a sign with word “demolition” on it, normally no one will ever come out.

"Is there anyone here…"

As he heard a familiar voice, he cooled himself down and immediately pushed the door open.

But it was locked.

“Mrs. Joseph, step back first!”

Kathy regained consciousness and heard Joseph’s voice, she was touched, and she almost cried.

She had been trapped in there for ten hours, and every minute was tormented for her.

If Cohen did not come back, if no one ever found her...

At that moment, the door was kicked open. She looked up, and in her blurry vision, Joseph's handsome face came into her eyes.

It was him.

Wearing his usual monochromatic outfit, the man seemed to be her savior from the sky.

And in the end, tears still flowed from her eyes.

Kathy’s heartbeat finally returned to normal as Joseph held her tightly in his arms.

All her anxiety, fear, and dread, finally gradually dissipated.

“I'm the one who's late.” Joseph’s frustrated voice sounded, he dared not to think about how long she had been here, and what she had experienced.

Kathy kept her eyes closed, greedily enjoy this peaceful moment.

The two of them, neither of them made a sound.

Only after a long while, Kathy lifted her head and asked, “How did you know I was here?”

Joseph pursed his lips and did not speak.

Kathy was suspected as a plagiarist, but he did not want to tell her himself.

“Joseph, are you still sending people to follow me?” Kathy’s face looked stern.

“No, but I regretted it.” Joseph said gravelly.

If he sent someone to protect Kathy all the time, at least he could take immediate action if something happened to her.

“This was an accident, it is just because I was accepted by Professor Benedict as an exception, and some students were jealous...” Kathy explained.

Now that she was very popular in school, some admired her, but there were also some people envied her and discredited her.

She never paid any attention to it, and never thought that someone would even trap her to vent their anger.

“Kathy, what if I told you that there is a chance you will be expelled,”

He said it with a tone as gently as possible, but Kathy's face turned pale for a moment.

"What did you say?" She looked up, the tension in her eyes surfacing.

"Your test paper was found to be identical to another student’s, and before this matter is investigated thoroughly, your admission is temporarily canceled."

Kathy gripped Joseph's shirt tightly for a long while before she loosened her grip.

She laughed in a low voice, "Do you believe me?"

“I believe you, Mrs. Joseph, I will help you look into this matter.” Joseph cupped her face; his tone was intimate and gentle.

“You don't interfere, I'll look into it myself.” Kathy took a deep breath.

She and Joseph were no longer husband and wife, and he didn't need to do this.

"I will not just stand by and watch." He said seriously.

...

After walking back all the way back to the dormitory, Kathy can feel the gaze of her classmates around her, all full of mockery and disdain.

On the bulletin board, there was indeed a notice about her plagiarism, and the other student was Caelan, whom she did not know at all.

But the answers of their test papers were almost identical.

"Professor, regarding this matter, I hope you believe me." Kathy solemnly said.

"I only believe in the final results of the investigation, but since you are my student, if you are innocent, I definitely won't let you suffer."

Hearing the belief in Benedict's words, Kathy was relieved.

"Professor, can you pull up the video of the exam day?"

After hearing this, Benedict shook his head, "It can't be checked anymore, now both you and Caelan will be investigated, but the school has evaluated you for abnormal behavior during the exam, so you need to be temporarily suspended from school."

As Kathy left the office, her mood was terrible.

Now the public opinion was all in favor of her plagiarism, and such unwarranted accusations made her feel very bad.

Bertie had been waiting for her, and when he saw Kathy come out, he did not come forward for a moment.

He did not know how to comfort her and could only walk silently behind her.

Until Kathy found out and stopped walking.

“Mr. Marshall, could you please stop following me.” Kathy frowned; her tone was not good.

“I'm worried about you.” Bertie frowned.

“Your worries are stressing me out, so please go and mind your own business.”

“What can I do to help you?” Bertie asked.

“You can help by staying away from me.”

Under the hostel, the black car was parked not far away.

Joseph's gaze fell on them two, he looked grim.

Soon after Zofia came back, she received a call from her brother, telling her that Kathy had gone back to the dormitory and asked her to bring Kathy some food from the dining hall.

The rumor that Kathy had cheated on her exams has spread in the school. Yesterday there were still people who admired and acclaimed Kathy as a “The goddess of learning”, but today everyone just mocked at her.

“Brother, I think that Kathy really might be expelled from school.”
