A Man with Nerves of Steel Chapter 1004
After leaving the Traditional Medicine Center, Owen went straight to the docks, where a boat waited to pick him up. It carried him out of Jenton, but halfway through the journey, he transferred to a smaller vessel. Then, he came ashore at a secluded, uninhabited location before returning to Jenton before dawn.Joseph wasn't in Jenton, but he had many informants keeping an eye on things. Eventually, his people discovered that Owen had used a secret channel to enter Dolly's sanatorium.Dolly wasn't the one who welcomed Owen. Instead, another associate director handled his admission, registering him under the name of Dominic Zeller rather than his real name.The associate director didn't inform Dolly that a new patient had been admitted. As soon as Dolly arrived at the sanatorium, her superiors summoned her to a meeting and kept her so busy she had no time to make her rounds.Afterward, Dolly was ordered to accompany state health department officials on an out-of-town study trip.

Joseph decided to take things a step further and exposed himself to Yvette. The moment she saw what he had, the smugness and excitement in her eyes were impossible to miss. That only made him more determined to make her pay for what she had done.Joseph and Yvette were in her office. The director and other senior administrators at Croma Hospital had all been summoned by the Howe family to straighten them out.Because Yvette served as acting director of Jenton University Hospital, she was exempt. Otherwise, she would have been dragged in for the same treatment. So, nothing else happened between her and Joseph.Instead, Yvette ordered Joseph to undergo a physical examination. He had to be tested for skin conditions, sexually transmitted infections, and other contagious diseases. He also needed to undergo a cardiac function examination.Her real intention was to wear down his sense of shame through a series of minor demands. Step by step, she wanted to establish control over him.Jos

The Yeager family ranked 12th, while the Summers family held the 13th spot. Of course, the Zahn family's sixth-place entry into the Roundtable Council dealt the biggest blow to the Byers family. With the Zahn family taking its place, the Byers family was pushed out of the elite group known as the 95 Supremes.After the meeting, Joseph told Rhea to return to Jenton first. She was just a figurehead he had put forward to represent the Zahn family, and he couldn't risk letting the Howe family kill her.He wanted her back in Jenton for another reason. Her return would give him an opportunity to get Owen out of Traditional Medicine Center. He planned to use her to arrange Owen's escape.If Owen killed Rhea, Joseph would have free rein to retaliate against him without holding back. Nevertheless, he couldn't return to Jenton yet. Too many uncertainties still surrounded the Yeager family.Mavis had left Jenton, but instead of returning to Croma immediately, she had gone to visit the Dixon f

The relevant government authorities approached Henry once again, demanding that the Zahn family explain why such a large stockpile of explosives had been hidden on Emerald Mountain.Joseph arranged for the officials to confront Owen directly. As expected, Owen gave them an earful, putting on a completely different act from Joseph. With Owen setting the tone, the authorities eventually dropped the matter and stopped bringing it up.Once the controversy died down and the disaster relief efforts were complete, Joseph decided the time was right. He arranged for Jenna to lead a team to Croma for a medicine-and-poison competition with the Howe family. Joseph had a place on the team, but under the identity of a 50-year-old village doctor, Darius Clarke.Before that, Joseph switched back to his disguise as Zachary. Along with Dean, he publicly welcomed Jenna and the others to Croma and worked with the Howe family to finalize the procedures for the competition.The next day, Joseph left Dea

However, something happened afterward that shook Joseph's materialistic worldview. After the disaster relief efforts ended, a massive landslide occurred on the back slope of Emerald Mountain.For reasons no one could explain, nearly half the mountainside suddenly gave way, revealing an enormous cavern hidden deep inside the mountain. Judging from the traces left behind, it appeared that some kind of living creature had once inhabited the cave.Even stranger, on the very day the landslide occurred, someone claimed to have seen a rainbow stretching from Emerald Mountain all the way to the mouth of Blackveil River.The geomancy specialist said that an earth dragon had taken advantage of the floodwaters to ascend to the heavens. It could be a sign that Joseph was about to rise to great heights.Joseph still refused to believe in any of that. Still, he had finally found the perfect excuse to move Owen and the others away from Emerald Mountain. Then, he sent a specialized team to survey

After parting ways with Dolly, Joseph made another trip to the cemetery. When Minerva continued sending him messages, he finally told her to meet him there.Minerva asked, "Is this an empty tomb?"Joseph answered, "No, the one in Croma is the empty tomb. Grace and her child's ashes are buried here."With everything changing so rapidly within the Yeager and Summers families, no one cared about the ashes of someone already dead."You moved my sister to Jenton? You truly are something." Minerva frowned. She hadn't expected Joseph to be this devoted to Grace.The wind picked up as dark clouds rolled across the sky. Rain was clearly on the way, and the cemetery staff was making their rounds, urging the two to leave. They returned to the car, and barely had closed the doors when raindrops fell.Joseph pulled out a cigarette and was about to light it, but then he noticed Minerva sitting beside him. Instead, he tucked it behind his ear. To his surprise, she took it from him, lit it herse

Joseph met Bernard's scrutinizing gaze and said, "It's genuine. I didn't believe this was the truth, either, so I did a few more paternity tests with different labs. But the results… they didn't change."Bernard didn't speak right away. He just stared at Joseph, his eyes sharp and probing.A bitte

Joseph was prepared for this and met Cora's gaze head-on. "Cora, you're now the richest person in Jenton. Your net worth is what, 80 billion dollars? And that's even a conservative guess. I'm not going to make some ridiculous demand to split everything equally. That money isn't mine, and I didn't ea

When Joseph finally woke from his drunken stupor, he found himself in a luxurious king-sized bed in a hotel room. He was completely naked under the covers, and from the mess all around, he'd definitely gotten down and dirty.His head buzzed as he tried to piece together last night's events. After f
