Chapter 330

مؤلف: Lunar Flame
Joseph received a call from Shirley. She wanted to bring Mia in for a checkup so Joseph could give her one last look-over before flying her out of the country for further recovery and treatment.

Joseph wasn't opposed to it. The hospital had no shortage of doctors who could handle the physical exams, so he claimed he was too busy.

Right after he hung up, Cora called. "Honey, the teacher called again. Selena is upset at school. You need to go down there and have a heart-to-heart with her."

    On the drive over, Joseph closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, completely ignoring Cora's attempts to make conversation.Cora could tell Joseph was being disrespectful to her. She huffed in displeasure, but Joseph paid her no mind.In the past, he would've bent over backward to coax her, waiting on her hand and foot so she never even had a reason to get mad.But now? He couldn't care less about her feelings. He probably didn't care about her anymore, either.Cora felt dejected, frustrated, and utterly confused. She still had no idea where things had taken a wrong turn.Outside, the streets were bustling and loud, but inside the car, it was dead silent.They reached the Traditional Medicine Center a few minutes later. Joseph went to check on Natalie and the other two first. Since their blood was no longer being drawn, he could clearly tell their vitality was returning."Dad, can you come visit me every day?" Selena asked."I'll try. I'll come whenever I have time. But don't w

    "What's this supposed to be? Your way of challenging me? Now that you've secured the Towne family, you're cutting me loose?""You got what you needed from me too. I helped you secure the partnership of the Lowell, Banks, and York families with the Towne family, and you also got to safeguard your own interests."So don't act like you did me some huge favor or that I owe you. If you're not going to appreciate a great guy like Joseph, I'll gladly take him off your hands!""Belinda Towne, you're a real bitch, the kind that bites the hand that feeds her!""That's a little harsh! You and Joseph are basically at each other's throats right now. Why not take a step back and make the smarter move? Just divorce him and let him move on."I'll be with him instead. And don't worry—I'm not the petty type. You can always drop by whenever you want to have some fun with him.""You're shameless! Keep dreaming!"Having heard enough, Cora stormed out.She sat in the car, her heart growing colder by

    When Joseph returned to the clinic, Yelena just happened to bring in an elderly member of the Cooper family, so he got right to treating them.Cora swung by the clinic, but Joseph was genuinely too busy to see her. When she learned he had lunch with Belinda, she went straight to Belinda instead.By the time Cora got to Belinda's place, Belinda had already changed into her pajamas and was about to take an afternoon nap. Belinda's slim, curvy figure made even Cora feel a twinge of envy for her youth.She cut right to the chase. "We're supposed to be partners. I helped you secure the Towne family, and this is how you repay me? By seducing my husband?""What are you talking about, Cora? I never tried to seduce Joseph. There's nothing going on between us. We just had lunch together. And he paid, by the way. It was strictly a meal. We didn't sleep together or anything. You're not seriously getting jealous over a meal, are you?"Belinda smiled, looking totally unbothered.Cora pressed,

    Sure, Joseph wasn't a monk who had to stay celibate yet, but that didn't mean he was some kind of pervert who had weird fetishes."I've finally won over those stubborn old fogies in the Towne family. They're letting me take over Towne Group. Jonas has already signed the transfer papers. He's out!" Belinda exclaimed excitedly."Oh? What made Jonas cave?""I mean, think of the state he's in. What choice did he have? Besides, if he refused, he wouldn't dare set foot outside that hospital ever again."He knows that the second he leaves, I'll pay him back and let him get a taste of what I went through.""What about what I asked for?" Joseph asked."Joseph, I know you want proof of Cora's affair with Jonas. But after doing some digging, I really don't think Jonas ever had a shot with her. Cora actually has some standards.""Standards?" Joseph grumbled, annoyed that Belinda was speaking on Cora's behalf."Oh, what I mean is, she definitely had an affair, but I don't think it was with

    The next morning, Joseph received a call from Lexi. She'd been to several top-tier hospitals in other cities, but none of them had come up with a better treatment plan for Jonathan.Now she wanted to transfer him back to a healthcare facility in Jenton. Since Joseph didn't have a better treatment plan either, he had no choice but to politely decline the request.His clinic was poorly equipped and wasn't suitable for long-term hospitalization or treatment anyway.At the same time, he egged Lexi on to take revenge against the Zahn family. Lexi, easily swayed, declared over the phone that the Zahn family would pay. Joseph then ended the call.Around 10:00 am, Shirley showed up at the clinic for a follow-up. She had become extremely sensitive and felt as if there were a volcano of desire inside her, ready to erupt at any moment.These were the side effects of that drug. Grace had been affected by the same drug back then. But because Joseph had personally detoxified her and relieved th

    That was what Joseph figured. Since he had put pressure on Yara, her backers surely knew about it by now and would soon show themselves to rescue her. It was also possible that Cora would send Yara back to the Zahn family.Joseph fell into deep thought. "This is where we find out whether you still have a heart or you're just a monster. After everything that's happened, can you really just sit there and do nothing?"Later, he got an update. Yara had been taken to Jenton University Hospital, then transferred to the Traditional Medicine Center, where she was placed in a VIP intensive care ward for treatment.He immediately called Cora. "What the hell did you do? You had her, and then you just sent her straight back to the Zahn family. Unbelievable. You really are one of them, aren't you?""It's not like that. Her family came and arranged the transfer. What could I, an outsider, possibly do?" Cora said, unable to do anything about the misunderstanding between them."Funny how you coul

    Joseph walked into the bar and found the owner, Anne Wells. One look at her long, dark curls made him start to doubt that what the hotel front desk had told him was fake.Sure enough, when he said he wanted to repay the room fee and deposit, Anne immediately refused. She denied ever driving him to

    Joseph rejected Cora's unreasonable demands without hesitation. "No way. I meant every word. The paternity test result is real, which means your cheating is real. You've already been unfaithful, so there's no point in keeping this marriage going. We have to di—""Joseph, is this the sort of attitud

    Cora had once been the number-one beauty in Jenton. Even now, at 40 years old, she was still stunning. Thanks to her good maintenance routine and a pampered lifestyle, there was no trace of age on her face—she looked like she was 28 at most. Her age only added a touch of mature charm to her.She wa

    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
