Chapter 536 I Hope You Love Yourself

Josephine was surprised and said, "Gerald, are you proposing?"

Gerald nodded.

"That's great!" Josephine was very happy. "Then go buy some flowers!"

Gerald said, "I'll propose to her alone after you meet Kathy."

"What? You won't let us see it?" Josephine had to say, "Alright, I wanted to witness it."

Gerald said, "Kathy will be shy."

"Gerald, I didn't expect you to be so considerate." Josephine said, "This relationship has made me see you in a new light."

Gerald smiled.

Nicole knew about Kathy's injury and wanted to visit her.

Gerald wouldn't let her go: "Mom, when Kathy feels better, I'll bring her to see you."

"How is that the same?" Nicole was very anxious. "No matter what your relationship is, she saved you. As a mother, I should thank her."

Gerald said, "Mom, I understand how you feel, but I think Kathy might not be ready to meet you yet."

"I'm not a bad person. Why does she need to prepare to meet me? Have you been badmouthing me to Kathy?"

Gerald was at a loss."No. It's just that, Mom, if you want to meet her, I should at least let her know in advance. It would be too abrupt otherwise."

Nicole, although very worried, had to suppress her desire to visit.

But she had Josephine bring a lot of expensive supplements and sent a housekeeper to help with cooking and cleaning.

Because she knew Gerald was busy with work and couldn't be relied upon.

Since he couldn't be relied upon, she hired a housekeeper.

After all, she couldn't let Kathy do these things.

Kathy also had a job, and now she was injured.

Josephine knew about Gerald and Kathy living together, but this was her first time visiting their place.

On the way, Josephine said, "Gerald, you can't just prepare flowers, you need a ring too. Do you know Kathy's ring size?"

Gerald honestly shook his head.

"You." Josephine shared her experience, "If you want to surprise Kathy and don't want her to know you're preparing this, you can secretly measure her size with a string."

"Okay."

"Gerald, why are you so calm? You don't seem happy at all."

Gerald smiled wryly, "She's injured, how can I be happy?"

"That's true." Josephine knew Kathy was fine and was just happy. "Luckily, Kathy is okay, otherwise..."

Otherwise, she really wouldn't know what to do.

Gerald finally found a girlfriend, and if something happened because of this, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

With Gerald's personality, he probably wouldn't find another girlfriend in the future.

Luckily, Kathy was okay.

But Josephine was also surprised that Kathy saved Gerald so selflessly and without hesitation.

According to Stuart, the situation was urgent at the time. If Kathy hadn't reacted quickly, the rock could have crushed Gerald to death.

After pushing him away, Kathy didn't have time to dodge, and the corner of the rock hit her shoulder.

If the whole rock had fallen, Kathy's life would have been in danger.

Josephine didn't see it herself, but hearing Stuart say this made her feel scared.

Finally seeing Kathy, Josephine didn't have time to tour their house and first saw Kathy's arm in a sling.

She went up and hugged Kathy, carefully avoiding her wound.

Although Josephine had been worried before, seeing her, she couldn't control herself, and her eyes turned red, tears falling.

Kathy only had her father as a relative, and now he was in a nursing home.

Naturally, Kathy wouldn't tell him about her injury.

Thinking of this, Josephine felt even more heartbroken.

Kathy patted her, "Don't be sad, I'm fine. You have a baby in your belly, don't be like this."

The two sat on the sofa holding hands, while the two men put the things they brought in the kitchen.

Stuart finally had a chance to say something to Gerald. "Gerald, are you sure you want to propose now?"

Gerald said, "Yes, why?"

"I don't think it's appropriate." Stuart said, "Kathy might think you're proposing because she saved you."

Gerald said, "Would she think that?"

"I'm afraid she might."

"She won't." Gerald said, "Although it's a bit soon, I think she would be happy to marry me."

"Let's hope so." Stuart said, "I hope so too. Good luck with your proposal."

"Thank you."

At this moment, in the living room, Josephine said, "Kathy, even though he's my brother, I have to say, what you did was too dangerous!"

"I didn't think much at the time, it was just a reflex."

"Luckil,y you're okay, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do." Josephine hugged her again, "It's great, you and Gerald will definitely be safe and sound in the future."

"It's okay, don't worry."

Josephine was pregnant, and Kathy needed more rest due to her injury, so Josephine and Stuart didn't stay long and left.

The house now had two more housekeepers, one for cleaning and one for cooking.

Kathy didn't feel uncomfortable, as she used to have several servants at home.

The house was 1,400 square feet, more than enough for her and Gerald, but with two more people, it felt a bit lively.

The people Nicole sent over were undoubtedly good cooks.

After taking care of Kathy's meal, Gerald took her to rest.

Kathy was helpless, "I'm fine, I can do it myself."

Gerald even wanted to feed her during the meal.

"No," Gerald said, "you need to rest more and lie down more to recover quickly."

Kathy had to obediently lie on her side in bed.

Gerald sat by the bed, holding her hand.

Kathy looked at him, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Gerald looked at her, "How did you know..."

"I don't know how I knew, but I felt you had something to say."

"Yes." Gerald lowered his eyes, "Kathy, although you saved me, and I'm very touched, I'm also very angry."

Kathy was stunned.

Gerald continued, "Any behavior that harms your body, no matter the reason, I can't accept. In this world, I hope you can love yourself first before loving others. No one is worth you sacrificing your life to save."

Kathy didn't say anything.

Gerald added, "If something like this happens again, I hope you can be a little selfish, okay?"

Kathy finally said, "What if this happened in front of you, what would you do?"
