INICIAR SESIÓNJoseph followed the woman. Sure enough, he saw her stop in front of Grace's grave, set down the flowers, and silently pray.He wanted to approach her, but this time, Edith held him back, saying, "Don't be foolish. That's Mr. Howe's fiancee. If you mess with her, he won't be the only one coming after you. Our family won't stand for it either.""Isn't she my sister-in-law?" Joseph asked."What nonsense! That's Minerva, not Grace. I can't believe you! You know exactly who she is, and you're still going after her? You're so shameless!" "You're the one with no shame! I'm only looking out for Grace. You've got it all wrong! It's not what you think. Maybe you should think about what's wrong with you!"Joseph ignored Edith and headed down the path to Grace's grave. He lit three cigarettes, took a drag from each, and set them in front of the grave. But Minerva Summers took them away and stomped them out. Then she glared coldly at him, her eyes filled with contempt. "Get lost!"Joseph s
Even then, Yasmin didn't say much and returned to her bedroom. She suddenly thought of Joseph, who was a real catch. She hoped he would stay in Croma for good and continue seeing her in private. Yasmin wanted to move to the new residence too. That way, if Joseph had no place to go, he could come see her. She never imagined that Joseph was under the same roof.Joseph kept to himself and didn't say anything for the rest of the night.The next day, he arrived at the graveyard where Grace was buried. Back then, Mavis let him take her ashes away, so it was just an empty grave in her name. But he wasn't actually there to pay his respects. He just wanted to see if anyone was keeping an eye on that place. The one who got Grace killed probably didn't want him anywhere near that place. And sure enough, he spotted one of her family's people nearby. These people would stop Joseph from getting close to Grace's grave. They didn't want him ruining the Summers family's reputation or making
The Yeagers had a magnificent courtyard estate, which was well furnished and maintained. At the moment, all of the family's key figures were gathered there.Even though Colin Yeager, Zachary's father, held considerable power in the family, his health had deteriorated badly. His Parkinson's disease had become so bad that he had to stay in a sanatorium. Now Zachary's uncles called the shots in the family, and Mavis had a say in important family decisions too. At first, Zachary had considerable sway in the family. However, after going to Jenton and accomplishing very little—followed by falling ill and getting injured—he was gradually sidelined. Steven Yeager had stepped in to replace Zachary. Before Joseph showed up disguised as Zachary, the Yeagers had been planning to track him down and convince him to stay in Croma as their family doctor. That way, they could rise into the ranks of mythical-tier families and become one of the most powerful families in that circle. Now that
Cora asked, "What makes you think that?""Don't you know what the Zahns are like? Women don't exactly have a place in a family like ours."Ms. Lowell, not every woman is as beautiful and well off as you. Not everyone gets to have a husband who treats them well as yours does.""That's not what I mean! By the way, what's the connection between Henry and Joseph? Can you get hold of Joseph for me?""I can't! But I don't think he's in Jenton anymore." Jenna didn't say anything more. She was worried she might let something slip, so he left. Two days later, Cora received some news. She learned that Joseph had gone off to Croma to perform surgery. According to the report, he helped separate conjoined twins at Croma Hospital, and he was the lead surgeon too. Cora immediately arranged for her people to head over to Croma Hospital to find Joseph and watch over him in secret. She dug deeper and learned that the Zahn medical sect had arranged for him to lead the surgery through its connecti
Maybe Joseph's heart had finally won out. Or maybe he just wanted to see how Natalie was doing. He decided to humor Cora and went to Natalie's new house. Seeing the bodyguards leave, Natalie thought Cora was finally letting her leave. She never expected Joseph to walk in. Displeased, she asked, "What are you doing here?"Since Natalie was doing well, Joseph considered turning around and leaving. Whatever Cora had told him about her was all just a lie. Natalie was doing perfectly fine here—living the good life. Joseph remarked, "You've really grown up!"Natalie instinctively tugged her clothes into place and eyed Joseph warily. "What are you up to? If you dare touch me, I'll make you pay for it!"Touch her? Did she really think he was that desperate?Goddamn that Natalie! She really didn't think much of him. Joseph didn't approach Natalie, but he wasn't upset either. "Your mom said you wanted to see me, so I came. "I guess this was all just your mom's wishful thinking, h
Natalie said nothing, so Cora continued, "What were you trying to get by seducing Henry? Go on. Tell me.""Henry Zahn used to be Henry Jebb. He's not even a real Zahn. He's young and single, and he's only a few years older than me. So what's wrong with the two of us being together? "A lot of the real Zahns marry people who were adopted into their family. They'd rather keep their wealth among themselves. If I married into the family, I could do so much more."How naive! Cora wondered how she had ended up with such a foolish daughter. Cora almost laughed out of frustration. Still, she knew nothing she said would help. Natalie was convinced she knew better, even though she didn't know what she was talking about. Cora knew she couldn't reason with her. Cora thought of Joseph. She decided to convince him to talk to Natalie. He would know exactly what to say. After all, he knew Natalie better than she did. On top of that, Cora couldn't help thinking that Joseph's parenting had play
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
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
