All Chapters of A Man with Nerves of Steel: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Cora waited until 10:00 pm, but there was still no sign of Joseph coming home. Frustrated, she called him, only to find that his phone was turned off. In a rage, she hurled her phone out of the room. Cora knew Joseph hadn't gone to a hotel, so he was probably spending the night at his laboratory. Still, she didn't go looking for him. Instead, she went to bed, thinking that if she fell asleep, she wouldn't be so irritated anymore. In the end, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.If Joseph were here, they could make love, and she would drift off to sleep easily. Cora could only fall asleep after taking some pills, but in the wee hours of the morning, she was jolted awake by a nightmare. She touched her back and found it already soaked in sweat. "Joseph, you bastard! I've been so good to you, but look what you did to me! You really let me down!"Cora really wanted to go to his laboratory and give him a piece of her mind. What she didn't know was that he hadn't been slac

After dropping Natalie off at the girls' school, Fiona immediately went to report to Cora."Fiona, do you think Joseph and Natalie could make anything out of this?" Cora didn't want Natalie involved, but Joseph didn't see it that way. In fact, Natalie had entered a rebellious state. She would appear to comply, but act otherwise."This could be a great way to build her character. It'll be very beneficial for her development." Fiona could still tell that Cora's future successor would be Natalie. Even though there were several promising youths in the family, none of them was as bright as her. Suddenly, Fiona received word that Joseph had already left the Crest District. In a few minutes, she would know whether he was on his way home."Joe's on his way home?" Cora was a little surprised.Not long after Cora dismissed Fiona, Joseph arrived home. He handed his old clothes to the housekeeper before joining Cora for dinner. They even opened two bottles of fine wine. Cora and Joseph d

Joseph saw that Cora had arrived. She asked with concern, "I heard you were in a car accident. Are you hurt?""I'm a doctor. I would know if something was wrong. I'm fine, so don't worry," replied Joseph.Joseph studied Cora. If he had told her about Marla from the beginning, Marla couldn't have gotten far if Cora did something.At the same time, there was another possibility. Cora might cover everything up, erasing every trace of her affair and making sure that Joseph would never discover who the biological father was. Currently, he didn't trust her at all. "What are you doing here then?" Cora asked, seeing that Joseph was fine. Since Fiona had already told her that the accident wasn't serious, she believed that he was fine."Marla knows who Natalie's biological father is, so I came to question her. Unfortunately, she had no intention of telling me. And she ran away," answered Joseph after thinking for a moment."Marla?" Cora repeated the name. She searched her memory for any c

The next day, Cora headed to Lowell Group. After a meeting, she was informed that Joseph had gone to visit her parents. She muttered, "What is Joe up to now?"Cora was suspicious. Since Joseph had looked for Marla and the latter had run away, he had gained nothing. There was no way he would just let it go. She was worried that he might do something impulsive to her parents."Mom, Joe didn't cause any trouble, did he?" Cora asked."Didn't I tell you already? Kim caught a cold. Joseph came over to treat her," answered Helen."I see! If anything else happens, let me know," said Cora before ending the call. She felt a pang of guilt.The day before, Cora received a call from Kimberly's teacher. The teacher mentioned that Kimberly was sneezing and had a runny nose. The teacher also advised Cora to pay more attention to Kimberly.Normally, Joseph would have handled such matters effortlessly, so Cora hadn't thought much of it. However, since he was in a bad mood recently, she had left Ki

Joseph stopped by the hospital first and purchased some medicines before returning to his laboratory. That evening, when he got home, he noticed that Cora wasn't there. As he thought that she was with her lover, he couldn't help but snicker."Is your lover really that important that you don't even bother coming home anymore? Why won't you divorce me then? What are you thinking? You betrayed me, yet you refuse to apologize and end the marriage. Sooner or later, you'll pay the price for it!" Joseph muttered.Joseph's heart had turned cold. After dinner, he went straight to his study. Not long afterward, Mavis' subordinate sent over the patient's medical records.Although the patient's name had been redacted, the rest of the information remained intact. The patient was a man in his early 80s suffering from acute leukemia.Acute leukemia progressed rapidly. Without chemotherapy, the patient could only live up to six months. Three months had already passed since the onset of this patien
