Chapter 401

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

Chapter 402

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,

"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

Chapter 404

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 exactly are you trying to say?"Jenna frowned. "Joseph, I know I apologized to you, but I still need you to tell me clearly what you mean.""Weren't you offering to pass on a message? When she wakes up, tell her that she and her whole damn family can go to hell! And mince your words!" Joseph exclaimed before walking away.Jenna followed him into the elevator. Once they were inside, she locked it so no other medical staff could enter, then asked, "What do you want me to help you with?""You know what I want?""No, no. I'm not going to guess. Just tell me directly.""What I need is biological material from all the adult men of the Zahn family. I'm going to use them for paternity tests. I've already been working on this, but I haven't been able to get samples from the core members of the Zahn family.""You still think the children's biological father is from the Zahn family?""Who else do you think could make Cora do something this shameless? Is there anyone else in Jenton w

Chapter 406

While Joseph was on the road, he shook off anyone tailing him and went straight to Kingsley Estate. He didn't want to be bothered, and Rosalie's home was the perfect place to get some rest.He chatted with Rosalie and Brooke for a bit before turning in early.Brooke gestured for Rosalie to follow Joseph in, but Rosalie shook her head.Brooke remarked, "With you dragging your feet like this, by the time you made up your mind, the ship would have already sailed.""Right. You know this because you're the one piloting the ship, right? Honestly, give me a break!" Rosalie fired back sarcastically.Truth be told, she did want to go in and get frisky with Joseph, but he wasn't interested. It took two to tango, after all.…Meanwhile, at the Traditional Medicine Center, Cora had relatives from the Lowell family stay behind to look after the children after she stayed with them for a while. She tried calling Joseph, but his phone had already been switched off.According to the updates fro

"That wasn't entirely my idea. There were people from the Croma faction who also wanted to destroy Grace. They came to me, and I just went along with their plan."But I never expected Joseph to save her. If Grace had been ruined back then, we wouldn't be in this mess today. Damn it! It's all that bastard Joseph's fault!" Jonas said through gritted teeth."You can't blame Joe for this! He's a doctor. He was just doing his job. As for what happened between him and Shirley, I'll look into it. Don't overthink things," Cora comforted Jonas, but seeing that he was still worked up, she didn't say anything more and left.She wanted to find Shirley, but Shirley had already left the hospital, so Cora had no choice but to let it go.She had just gotten back when she received a report from her subordinate. Shirley had shown up at Joseph's company and had gone straight into his office.Were they really involved with each other?Shocked, Cora rushed over to Joseph's company, but he wasn't ther

Chapter 408

After getting some rest, Joseph slipped out of Kingsley Estate before dawn. When he got to the company, he noticed the front gate was open, and his office was unlocked. Surprisingly, nothing inside had been stolen."Did the lock break, or did I just forget to lock up?"Joseph pulled up the security footage. It turned out the gate had opened on its own last night, and nobody had entered for a long time afterward.Then, Shirley and Cora showed up. Shirley had hung around for a bit, but once Cora arrived, they both took off."What did they come here for?"After breakfast, Joseph called Shirley to ask what had happened.Shirley was still in bed, but she forced herself to sound awake. "I laid my cards on the table with Jonas yesterday. I was upset, so I went to find you, but you weren't in your office. Where did you go?""You did? Did you get Jonas' money?" Joseph asked instead of answering her question.He highly doubted it. Shirley wasn't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed, and

Joseph mused, "Three inches. That length isn't enough… But that still shouldn't be the case. There couldn't be any other reason, though. This has to be it!"At that moment, Yelena chimed in, "Dwight is in great shape. He ran a half-marathon last month and placed in the top ten. There's no way he can only climb three flights of stairs. Honestly, I think he could carry a sack of cement up three flights of stairs if he wanted to.""You can explain it to her later. I'm going to write you a prescription to regulate your body first. After that, I suggest you try alternative methods. It should work," Joseph said as he wrote the prescription.Yelena was still confused when she went to pick up the prescription. She wanted to invite Joseph to dinner, but since he still had to go to the sanatorium to treat other patients, she left with Mandy.In the car, Yelena asked, "What did the three flights of stairs mean back there? It felt like you guys were talking in riddles."Mandy chuckled, saying

Chapter 410

Joseph hadn't expected Victor to die like that. Even though he never liked Victor's arrogant, condescending attitude, he was actually considering using Victor to challenge Jenna in a battle of medicine.His plan had been to poison Victor and have Jenna cure him. If she failed, she would have no choice but to watch Victor die before her own eyes.But somehow, Victor had died in a woman's bed instead.What an unbelievable scandal.After leaving Jenton University Hospital, Joseph returned to the sanatorium and retrieved his phone. The moment he powered it on, a flood of messages appeared. Most of them were from Cora, asking where he had gone.Some of them were messages from Kenneth with news of Victor's death. There were even photographs of the body.Joseph contacted Kenneth to get the full story and was soon sent several photos from the scene. They were quite difficult to look at.It seemed like things were getting more absurd by the day.Yet, when Joseph saw the woman involved,
