Chapter 245

作者: Lunar Flame
After refusing Jennifer's unreasonable request, Joseph considered drawing some information out of Frank. Just then, Joseph saw Theodore enter the ward, leaving him no opportunity.

Aside from that, someone from the critical care ward came looking for Joseph. He had to take charge of the rescue effort. The patient was admitted to the hospital in the early morning and was suffering from late-stage liver cancer. He had undergone surgery in another city last year, but the cancer had returned.

  • A Man with Nerves of Steel   Chapter 250

    After Joseph got off work that evening, he debated whether he should go to Cora or Rosalie. Suddenly, he realized that he was becoming too attached. So, he chose neither. Once he left the hospital, he went to Lacey's apartment."What are you doing here?" Lacey hadn't expected Joseph to come. In fact, he stepped inside directly.Remembering that someone else was in the apartment, Lacey quickly said, "Go back outside first. I…"However, it was too late. A naked woman walked out of the bathroom. The moment she saw Joseph, she jumped in shock. Without saying a word, she spun around and ran back into the bathroom.Joseph frowned. "Does she know who I am?""No. She's my cousin from my hometown. She came to visit me," replied Lacey."I see. I won't disturb you two then," said Joseph.Then, he turned and headed for the door. He dropped some cash onto the table and made a zipper-across-the-mouth gesture, signaling that everything she had seen should remain confidential.Lacey asked, "Wh

    After Joseph finished the treatment, he stepped out and saw Dave."Dr. Hart, a family member of my superior has suddenly fallen ill. It isn't convenient for them to come to the hospital. They would like you to go over," said Dave in a low voice, as if he found the request difficult to explain.Joseph thought about it for a moment. Studying Dave's expression, Joseph knew that Dave didn't know the details either. In the end, Joseph agreed. He handed off his remaining work before following Dave out.Holding the medical bag, Joseph got into the car.It was only then that Dave added, "To be honest, I don't know exactly what's wrong either. My superior only instructed me to find a doctor who was both trustworthy and capable. You were the first person who came to mind. No matter what happens, this needs to remain confidential.""I understand the importance of patient privacy," replied Joseph. Although he found it odd, he still decided to go over.The car entered a luxurious neighborhood

    Joseph didn't believe a word Cora said. Unfortunately, he had no evidence to refute her. Even if he did, she wouldn't admit it.A woman who could deny the results of a DNA test report was beyond reason. At this point, short of completely losing control and doing something irreversible, he saw no way to force the truth out of her.After all, she was the richest person in Jenton. She controlled enormous resources. He couldn't compare to her. In this world, weakness and being powerless were sins.Neither of them spoke again. Before long, they both fell asleep. When Joseph woke up, he noticed that they had ended up wrapped in each other's arms again sometime during the night. He couldn't help but think about how incredible his life would have been if only Cora hadn't cheated on him. At the thought of Cora hiding her affairs, Joseph felt angry. He vented his frustration on her again."Hey, I have an important meeting this morning. I don't have any energy left now," said Cora, rolling

    "Dad, what were you talking to him about? Why did he give me that look?" Cora asked.Bernard immediately advised, "Cora, I've told you before. He isn't worth compromising for. If he wants to do whatever he's doing, let him. You would be free then, and you wouldn't need to put up with his attitude anymore.""Dad, have you still not figured out the situation? I don't want a divorce. I can't get one either. With him around, I have someone I can rely on. Did you two talk about me again?" Cora asked, her expression turning serious."He brought it up first. He mentioned Warren's death and asked what I thought about it. What was I supposed to think? Who cares if a man like Warren dies? What's there to discuss?" Bernard responded.Seeing that Cora didn't have a change in expression, Bernard continued, "Joseph said that Warren may be gone, but what he did isn't. He doesn't intend to let the matter go.""Is there anything else?" Cora asked calmly, though she was far from calm."And the fir

    "Honey, you've really misunderstood me. I never did any of those things…" Cora defended herself.Joseph snapped, "Cora, is that the only thing you know how to say? Every time I hear it, it makes me sick."He was irritated. He genuinely couldn't understand the point of her denying everything. If she already had another man, why not just divorce him and live with that man? Wouldn't it be better?"One day, you'll realize that you've been wrong about me all along," stated Cora.Instead of continuing the argument, she just focused on driving.Silence settled over the car. Then, Cora turned on some music to ease the awkwardness. Fortunately, traffic was light, and they arrived home before long.Kimberly remained innocent. Once she saw Joseph, she ran up to him happily, chattering nonstop. Selena was also visibly happy. On the other hand, Natalie remained quiet, acting as though she didn't see him.Ever since New World Group had been burned down, tensions throughout Jenton had risen. M

The patient was admitted to the hospital in the early morning and was suffering from late-stage liver cancer. He had undergone surgery in another city last year, but the cancer had returned.Joseph wasn't a miracle worker. Even though he managed to pull the patient back from the brink of death, he told the family clearly that it wasn't a long-term solution and that the patient could pass away at any time.Right now, the most important thing the family should do was spend whatever time remained with the patient. The family accepted the reality and only hoped that Joseph could buy enough time for the patient to finish his will.Joseph could do that. Using acupuncture therapy, he temporar

    Joseph quickly took another drag from his cigarette and inhaled sharply to suppress the dark thoughts. He kept reminding himself that he was a doctor—not a butcher, not a murderer. "How close are you with my wife?" he asked.Frank laughed. "You should ask Cora.""I did ask. She didn't say, but I

    Cora was in a car not far away. Fiona came out of the hotel much quicker than Cora expected. After Fiona got in the car, Cora asked, "What happened? Did he kick you out?"Fiona thought to herself that she might not have made it out at all if she'd stayed any longer. Joseph was such a rogue that he

    But Joseph was a doctor. In the end, he went over to examine the man and discovered that the man had suffered cardiac arrest from excessive excitement.What a pervert.Joseph mocked the man inwardly, but still performed CPR. After the man was revived, Joseph called an ambulance, then returned to h

    In the past, Joseph would have just found Natalie's cheeky attitude kind of cute—more like a friend than a kid. Being friends with one's child, he'd always thought, could narrow the generation gap and make living together a lot more comfortable.But after finding out the paternity test results, he
