Chapter 32

Rosemary's face grew ugly.

Katherine was indeed a country bumpkin, and there was no way she could be decent. A

dignified young lady would never say such vulgar words.

She glanced at Joaquin in the wheelchair and felt more disdain in her heart.

"Kathy, how could you talk so roughly? I, of course, won't have any intentions toward my

brother-in-law." Rosemary looked aggrieved. When she spoke, she bit her lower lip and

gave Joaquin a pitiful look.

However, it was a pity that Joaquin looked wooden and did not seem to notice Rosemary's

look at all. He went along with Katherine to say, "I'm not interested in that. However, Miss

Rosemary, your attire is really indecent. The Levisays are a strict family, so since you're a

guest here, you should not embarrass the Cornells."

Rosemary's face turned pale; she was so humiliated that she wished there was a hole in

front of her for her to hide inside.

Joaquin simply doesn't know what's good for him!

She was obviously kind enough to remind him that Katherine was a vulgar woman, but

instead of being appreciative, he helped Katherine to ridicule herself. It was no wonder he

could only get second-hand junk like Katherine!

The smile on Rosemary's face could not be maintained anymore, and she could hardly

hold back her unhappy tone.

"I-I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to my room to rest."

Rosemary almost fled.

She was severely stimulated by the double whammy from Katherine and Joaquin.

Katherine was in a good mood. After she closed the door, she took the initiative to push

Joaquin's wheelchair. "There is no one else in the room. Do you want to continue to use

the wheelchair?"

Looking at the man in the wheelchair who was motionless, Katherine asked curiously.

Joaquin raised his eyes that were hidden under the mask. He stared at her calmly with

those deep and bottomless eyes.

After a long time, he twitched the corners of his mouth and asked casually, "When did you

know?"

"I was a little suspicious when we first met." Katherine studied medicine herself, so she

could tell at a glance if he was truly paralyzed.

Joaquin's breath was regular and his face was ruddy, so he did not look paralyzed at all.

If he was paralyzed in the lower body and had been sitting in a wheelchair for a long time,

it was impossible for him to be in this state.

She then confirmed her suspicions that his legs were all right when he was in the car the

day before yesterday.

"Has anyone told you that it's bad for women to be too smart?" Joaquin looked at

Katherine with a half-smile.

"Not really." Katherine tried to recall and answered quite honestly.

Joaquin could not help but twitch his lips happily.

"Now that you know, what are you going to do? Threaten me with this, or expose me to

gain benefits?" Joaquin leaned lazily on the wheelchair, but his deep eyes did not leave

Katherine's face.

"That's a good idea. How much do you think your matter of pretending to be lame is

worth? If I go and tell Hera about this, how much will she give me?" Katherine tilted her

head and looked at Joaquin. She looked as if she was seriously considering how much this

news was worth.

Seeing her acting in such a way, Joaquin knew that she would not expose this matter, and

his impression of Katherine changed a little subtly.

"It should be quite a lot." He smiled lightly and replied casually.

"But I don't like her very much, so, my dear fiancé, you should try to please me and be

kind to me. Then, I can help you keep it a secret. If you really want to become a lame

person and hide the matter from others, I can help you too." Katherine got up, leaned near

Joaquin, hooked her fingers on his chin, and raised his face.

The mask was in the way, but it was not difficult to see that this man's facial features were

very delicate.

Katherine felt that those eyes were a little familiar. She was wondering if she had seen it

before when he suddenly pulled her down. At the next moment, she sat on his lap and was

tightly clasped at her waist.

Joaquin's breathing was heaty and hurried, but it was still a little restrained. "Do you do

the same to other men? Huh?"

His voice dragged on; it was husky and sexy.

Katherine felt itchy in her ears and uncomfortable on her body.

She felt that she had been too careless to be approached by a man again, and the other

party had the opportunity to control her.

This kind of thing had never happened before.

She was annoyed for a while and scolded herself for letting down her guard against

Joaquin just because he was in a wheelchair.

"Of course not. Aren't you my fiancé? How can other men compare to you?" Katherine

replied simply and decisively.

Joaquin did not believe it.

He had already experienced how this woman seduced men.

It was just that she was very close at this time, and he could smell the faint fragrance on

her body. Joaquin, who had always been calm, actually felt butterflies in his stomach.

In the past few years, he had not had any butterflies even toward Beatrice, but Katherine

made an exception again and again.

Joaquin was puzzled.

A physical reaction was always the most direct indication of attraction. Katherine was no

longer a young and innocent girl who had never experienced sexual attraction, so she felt

changes in Joaquin's body.

Her body was a little stiff. It was one thing not to resist Joaquin's physical contact, but it

was another thing to actually have intimate skin-to-skin contact with him.

"My dear fiancé, can you let me go?"

Katherine's voice was a little low and her body was stiff, which betrayed her mood at this

time.

Joaquin glanced at her in surprise. Seeing her delicate face tense and her body extremely

stiff, it was as if she was resisting being so close to him.

He smiled, reached out and gently pushed her off.

After Katherine got up, she hurriedly backed away a few steps, not daring to tease Joaquin

anymore.

This man is very dangerous. He should be listed as Dangerous Person No. 2 for the time

being.

Number one is the shameless man in the hotel.

Joaquin, who was actually the shameless man, said, "I did not expect my dear fiancée to

be so innocent."

"Haha." Katherine only gave him a sneer, then turned around, took out her phone, and

began to play a game on it.

The brief intimate contact with Joaquin just now made Katherine's heart a little chaotic,

and only by playing games could she vent her panic and irritability.

Joaquin had never played games. Looking at Katherine playing at this time, he heard the

faint sounds of her successfully beating the levels. Katherine's pretty face was slightly

cold, and her jaw was tight. Without saying a word, she just stared at the screen of the

phone, and her fingers danced quickly on the screen.

Katherine played the game for two hours. If Theodore had not sent a message to interrupt

her, she would have continued playing.

Theodore sent the medical data of Hawk, as well as the basic data of the patients who

received the experimental drug.

Katherine took a few glances and finally felt a little relieved.

After Katherine replied to Theodore, she heard Joaquin's phone ringing. The man said a

few words in a low voice, his face a little ghastly.
