Joseph narrowed his eyes. It was the first time he had ever seen Mavis this upset. So she did have a feisty side after all. He said, "I know what we can do to get back at the Howes. I'll have a little chat with their personal doctor, Julian Lockwood.""That's Lester's son-in-law. If you go after Julian, you might provoke Lester. Your target's way too risky. Find someone else.""If we're going to hit the Howes, we might as well go big and hit them where it hurts the most. Besides, I have a perfectly good reason to go after him. "That bastard doctor is responsible for the deaths of three female college students. He's done plenty of other things too. He's got a pretty bad track record. "Of course, even if he hadn't done all of that, he'd still have to die. We're taking him down regardless," Joseph replied. The Howes had gotten away with way too much for years. How many of them would actually come out clean if the authorities really looked into what they had done? "You don't ge

Joseph reminded Cora to be more careful and to take precautions to keep the family safe. Then he told her that he was going up the mountain to go into seclusion, and not long after, she could no longer reach him. Cora was speechless, but she was gradually getting used to it. She knew he would come see her after some time, satisfying both her needs and his.The truth was, Joseph had to go to Croma and keep posing as Zachary. As far as he could tell, no one had exposed his true identity. Joseph continued recruiting people in Jenton, but he didn't bring them into his security company. Instead, he quietly trained them to be his undercover operatives. These people would come in handy when it was time to deal with Rachel, who was probably still alive. They would also help him with Owen's retaliation, outsiders from the Croma faction, and the possibility that Cora might stab him in the back someday. All Joseph had to do was plan ahead and stay out of trouble. As long as his cover was

Joseph wanted to know what Owen was still capable of, so he said he could only help treat him and nothing more. Of course, Owen didn't believe him, but Joseph refused to do anything beyond his duties as a doctor. Owen had no choice but to accept it. Before leaving, Joseph said, "I want to know more about Rachel Yale. How would you describe her?""Rachel was working for my family and me. She was extremely loyal to us. If things hadn't happened the way they did back then, she never would've had to die. "After she died, the medical sect was set back by more than ten years. If she were still alive, Rhea and the others wouldn't even be here. "Henry never would've had the chance to infiltrate my family. I wouldn't be where I am now!" "So you convinced her to come over to your side? I thought the Yales sent her to destroy the Zahns from within. Looks like you did outsmart them after all. I'm impressed!" Joseph said. Something suddenly occurred to Joseph, and he said, "You think so

If there was even a chance that treasure was involved, it was always worth checking. Joseph managed to find that specific history book and found several places worth looking into. He cross-referenced the names with Jenton's historical records before narrowing the location to an old house in a village on the outskirts of the city. Finally, he had his people discreetly purchase the old house. As Joseph stood in the old house, unsure where to begin, he suddenly remembered a small detail from Owen's instructions on where to find the stash of gold bars. He had deliberately paced around the living room, then stopped at a particular spot and tapped it three times with his cane. Was that supposed to be a clue?Joseph was skeptical about it, but he still decided to give it a go. After determining the location, he had his trusted men start digging. Eventually, they did find a box about ten feet underground. Sure enough, it was filled with gold bars. There were exactly 50 of them. Jose

Joseph didn't confirm or deny anything. Instead, he said, "Given your condition, you should be able to live for a very long time. Your family has plenty of resources at its disposal, so I'm sure you might even live to be 150 years old.""Joseph, can I trust you?" Owen suddenly asked. "Oh? What do you need me to do?" Joseph asked. "I want to make a deal with you! I can give you fortune. You'll have more than you could ever spend in your entire life. "Even if you had ten women by your side, you still wouldn't be able to spend it all. But you have to help me with something first.""Forget about the money. Just tell me what you need from me. There are things I can't do. If you're asking too much of me, then your promise means nothing to me!" Joseph replied. He had a feeling Owen was keeping something from him. "I'm trapped here. Help me get out of here. I'm sure you can do it!""You think too highly of me. I'm just a doctor. How am I even going to get you out of here? I'm not al

After Rhea left, she went to tell Joseph what had happened. She then asked, "Do you think my dad has a way out of here? Will Joseph really help him?"As Joseph listened, he started wondering if there was really a loophole somewhere. But where could it be? Was Owen really that cunning? "Joseph will never help your dad. But since your dad wants to see him, there's no harm in letting them meet. I'd like to know what his escape plan is.""Huh? You really want to let Joseph in here? He's pretty sharp. If he starts scheming with my dad, they might actually figure a way out of here." Rhea was perplexed. But if Joseph did come to Emerald Mountain, chances were she might run into him, and that made her a little nervous. "Let's talk about it later," Joseph said. He didn't tell Rhea much about his plans. He could tell that she was completely loyal to him, but she wasn't particularly clever. Rhea was really naive, and there was a chance she might betray him. He didn't exactly trust her,

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
