"I'm not sure what happened, either. I just got a call from the higher-ups in the medical sect telling me to prepare for Jenna's arrival. We'll have to ask her directly what went down."Gemma looked grim, clearly in the dark as well. Joseph didn't press further, but a heavy knot formed in his chest. Jenna had undoubtedly been beaten because of him. If she had sold him out earlier, the Zahn medical sect would have hunted him down and left her alone. Of course, they might have branded her a traitor and punished her severely anyway. He was becoming increasingly indebted to her. Joseph forced himself to swallow the conflicting emotions rising in his throat. It wasn't long before Jenna was wheeled into the hospital. At first glance, she was unconscious, her face badly bruised and swollen.Joseph and the others rushed her straight to the emergency room.After a thorough examination, Joseph determined she only had external soft-tissue injuries and had likely lost consciousness from

Chapter 582

Joseph knew Fiona far too well. Her current show of weakness was nothing more than an attempt to turn the tables. With her professional expertise, she could easily destroy his current identity.When it came to her, he couldn't afford to let her take the initiative. He had to lead her exactly where he wanted her to go.What worried Joseph even more was Fiona's loyalty to Cora. That was why Joseph paid close attention to every unusual thing Fiona did.Joseph's goal was to create a crack in the trust between Cora and Fiona. Ideally, he wanted Fiona to betray Cora and let Cora experience what it felt like to be betrayed.Joseph got out of the car and watched Fiona leave before turning back toward the department. Suddenly, he spotted Kaya secretly making a phone call, speaking in hushed tones.Kaya's voice was soft, but Joseph could hear every word. The person on the other end of the line was asking her to do it again, but she said it was too risky. That reminded him that she had been

Chapter 583

The Zahn family could have enjoyed wealth and prosperity for generations, but they had brought plenty of trouble upon themselves. Their practice of exchange transfusion was already a violation of basic morality. Then, Skylar went after Cora, which was more than what Joseph could tolerate.Cora was no different. She had failed in her duties as a wife. She fooled around with other men behind Joseph's back, and even deceived him into raising three children who weren't his. That pushed him even further past his breaking point.For all these reasons, Joseph had no intention of letting Cora and Skylar off the hook. He had used his medical skills to manipulate their conditions. He didn't need to interfere constantly. For now, all he had to do was sit back and watch the show.Gemma's face flushed with embarrassment. There was even a trace of resentment toward Skylar. He had brought up her humiliating past right in front of Joseph. What was the latter supposed to think of her now?Gemma sai

Chapter 584

When Skylar's attending physician arrived, Joseph left without knowing that Gemma had a surprisingly kind heart.Joseph went to look for Yara and found her still waiting outside Skylar's ward. Inside, Skylar was dealing with a personal matter. Out of nowhere, Yara had an idea. She wanted Joseph to take her out of the hospital for a meal.Joseph was a responsible doctor. In the past, he would have flat-out refused, especially since he was the one who had helped her sneak out. However, his mindset had changed. Instead of blindly following every rule in the book, he felt it was more important to understand how the real world worked.Besides, did Joseph really have any responsibility toward Yara? No. If she wanted to throw caution to the wind, let her.So, Yara went back to change. She freshened up and put on elegant makeup before heading to a mall in the city with Joseph. Instead of going to the luxurious high-end stores she normally frequented, she went to places more within Joseph

Chapter 585

Lexi found the sight of Yara hanging out with Joseph incredibly interesting. She couldn't help wondering how someone like Yara, who came from a wealthy family with notoriously high standards, could possibly choose someone as ugly as Joseph. There had to be something about him that set him apart.Lexi's family had originally been putting constant pressure on the Zahn family, trying to carve off a sizable piece of their business.However, after learning that Joseph had been the one stirring up trouble between them, Lexi stopped targeting the Zahn family and focused on consolidating the gains her family had already made."Peyton, I heard you've opened another nightclub and gotten into real estate. You're making money everywhere you can and making plenty of it. Congratulations!" Yara praised.Yara had no desire to deal with Lexi or Peyton, but there was no way around it.Joseph knew everything that happened. The last time several of Peyton's men had been killed, she hadn't been fright

Chapter 586

Cora called Natalie over and asked in a low voice, "What was that about? Where did you learn such terrible manners?"Natalie replied, "He's still hung up on Fiona. He truly doesn't know his worth."Cora responded, "Oh."Then, Cora glanced toward Joseph. She noticed that he and Yara were also whispering to each other.Meanwhile, Yara was asking Joseph what had happened. Joseph told Yara that Natalie had wanted to see Skylar and had ordered him to arrange it, but he didn't have the authority to do so, so he hadn't dared to agree.Yara believed Joseph and didn't pursue the matter.The women continued chatting casually, particularly about their recent projects. Lexi realized that she was making the least money out of everyone, so she quickly lost interest.Lexi turned to Cora and said, "Cora, you have to find Joseph as soon as possible. It isn't just about making him apologize to my brother and checking on his health. You also need to think about Yara."Lexi glanced toward Joseph,

"Your analysis makes sense, but where is Joseph now? I have a feeling Cora isn't really trying that hard to find him. Now that Mr. Zahn is sick and hospitalized, will she have something else in mind?" Joseph asked.Yara questioned, "What could she be thinking?"Joseph replied, "She could deny having a relationship with Mr. Zahn and maintain her marriage to Joseph. Then, she could take her three daughters with her. Besides, she's the richest person in Jenton. She would be free and powerful.""Free and powerful? In her dreams! Jenton will always belong to the Zahn family. Henry, don't let Cora's beauty cloud your judgment. She's 40 years old and already has three children. What's so special about a woman like that?" Yara warned.Joseph laughed cheekily. "Do you think I'm that easily dazzled? Cora is Mr. Zahn's woman, which makes her your sister-in-law. Even if you gave me ten thousand lives, I wouldn't dare touch his woman.""What about me? Would you dare to touch me?" Yara asked.

Chapter 588

Gemma let out a deep sigh of relief when she saw that Joseph had brought Yara back safely. She asked what the two of them had been doing outside, and once she learned that they had only gone out to eat, she didn't press the matter.However, when Gemma took Joseph with her to explain everything to Skylar, Skylar still gave Joseph a stern warning. Skylar warned, "If there's a next time, I'll make sure you regret it."Joseph protested, "Mr. Zahn, you're really blaming the wrong person. Whatever Ms. Zahn wants to do, I can't refuse. Otherwise, she would have made me regret it too."While he said that, he thought that if he convinced Yara to ride a ferris wheel, Skylar would be furious."We all know how headstrong Yara can be. If we don't indulge her a little, she'll kick all of us out. Since Yara came back safely, let's let this one go. Just don't do it again," said Gemma, speaking up for Joseph.Then, Gemma comforted Skylar. "Look at the condition you're in. Don't waste your energy w

When Joseph and Kaya reached the pharmacy, the pharmacists inside were extremely busy. Kaya seemed to know the place well, so she walked straight in and started looking for the medicine.However, Kaya left Joseph waiting outside. A short while later, she came back with the medicine she needed. She handed it to him to carry while she continued scrolling through her phone.Joseph had sharp eyes. He noticed that the tamper-evident seal on a small packet of saline had been partially peeled back. It was obvious that someone had opened it and inspected the medicine inside.In Joseph's opinion, there was a good chance Kaya had tampered with it. She could have used the opportunity to pick up the medicine and add something to it, or quietly switch it with another packet.Worse yet, there might even be someone working in the pharmacy for Kaya. If they want to go after Skylar, let them. Joseph only had to watch, but he couldn't let Skylar die at their hands. Skylar still had to answer to Jose

Chapter 590

As expected, Cora refused to admit that she had cheated on Joseph. Instead, she wanted to twist the truth. She was truly delusional. He had never met anyone so shameless.Joseph was furious, but he deliberately played dumb. He stammered, "That would be extremely difficult…""Is it just difficult? So, there's room to make it work!" Cora exclaimed, as if she had discovered something new. Her eyes lit up with excitement."There's room for it, but it would be extremely difficult. I couldn't do it alone. If you want to make it happen, you'll have to take some serious risks. You may have to pay a very high price. I don't think it's worth it," responded Joseph."It's worth it. Nothing matters more to me than having my husband come back and restoring peace to our family. Tell me what needs to be done. If you can't do it yourself, I'll find a way to make it happen. I'll take responsibility for the risks and the consequences," replied Cora.Joseph said, "I don't know what you're capable of.
