All Chapters of A Man with Nerves of Steel: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Warren's mistress didn't know the identity of the other man. According to her, Warren only brought it up briefly to spice things up before they were intimate. Once they were finished, he never mentioned it again. "Why do you want his phone so badly?" Joseph asked. "You said yourself it's just an old basic phone. Besides making calls, what use could it possibly have?"Joseph knew he wouldn't get the answers he wanted that easily. If Cora's infidelity had been obvious and out in the open, the news would have leaked to high society long ago. Warren might have seen Cora with another man, but that didn't mean he had actually witnessed her sleeping with someone.Despite that, the fact that Cora and Warren had gone to a hot spring resort together was enough to convince him that something was going on between them. No matter how convincing this woman sounded, he couldn't fully trust her.When she hesitated to answer, Joseph continued, "You might claim that you're Warren's mistress, but hi

After work, Joseph left the hospital and once again went to Lacey's apartment. When he got there, he found Lacey eating a microwaved meal.He said, "Is this how beautiful women live? Your face and body are worth a fortune, but you're unwilling to treat your own stomach well."Lacey's cheeks flushed red, whether from the hot meal or from being caught by Joseph at such a moment. "I'm not a beautiful woman. I'm just an ugly duckling that everyone looks down on. Why are you off work so early today, anyway?"Joseph took off his shoes and coat, climbing into bed without answering.Lacey muttered, "I… I have to go out later. I won't be back until late…"Joseph said, "Cora wants you to accompany another man? Just turn it down."Lacey replied, "Hey, that's my job. I can't just refuse. It's the same as asking you to quit being a doctor and stop treating patients. Could you do that?"Joseph scoffed. "Just like a leopard can't change its spots, a prostitute will always be a prostitute."Jo

Joseph was the head of the ICU, so he was already swamped with work. On top of that, he avoided appearing too involved in Warren's case, deliberately keeping his hands off Warren's treatment. So, no one suspected that he tampered with anything.Stepping out of the emergency room, Joseph spotted a familiar woman entering Frank's room, so he walked over.That woman was Mary, the former housekeeper at his house. Joseph had also found out sometime ago that she was Frank's mistress."Who allowed you in here? Get out!" Joseph barked as he walked over.Mary froze in shock. She had only just arrived and hadn't even had the chance to speak to Frank before Joseph discovered her. "Mr. Hart…"Joseph didn't give Mary the chance to speak. "You and I have nothing to do with each other. Don't even think about trying anything. Get lost!"The last thing he needed was for Frank's lover to pass him information. If Frank became aware of too much, Joseph would lose his leverage over him. After cha

That afternoon, Joseph spent several hours performing a liver surgery. By the time he left the hospital, evening had already fallen. Without drawing attention to himself, he made his way back to the apartment where the mother and daughter pair stayed.He handed the bag of medicine to the middle-aged woman, saying, "If you don't take this, your condition will only get worse. A cough can turn into pneumonia. When that happens, your already struggling family will be in deeper trouble."The woman stared at him suspiciously, and the wariness in her gaze grew stronger.Joseph said, "Don't overthink it. I just don't want my investment going to waste. This is all purely transactional. Don't mistake me for a good person. If you don't ask me who I am, I won't ask you how you ended up like this."Still, if someone gives you trouble during this month, you can tell me. I'll handle it for you."After sitting down for a short while, he heard the door open. The little girl had returned from schoo

Joseph stared at Helen in disbelief. He was so angry that he didn't even know what to say. He dipped his finger in his tea and scrawled on the table—one could never truly understand what others were thinking.Helen thought Joseph was about to name a price, so she was very disappointed and lost respect for him. She pulled a pre-drafted contract from her bag and handed it over, saying, "My family and the Lowells always keep our word. "As long as you don't ask for an unreasonable amount, we'll pay you at once. At the same time, we'll also support your medical career."Back then, I didn't realize you had real talent, so we'll invest in your development going forward. We'll send you to pursue a PhD and arrange postdoctoral training at the best medical institutions abroad."Joseph reviewed the contract and realized that once he signed it, he would receive the money, but he would never be able to divorce Cora. As for the amount, he could fill it himself. "Helen, look at what you're doi
