Fiona didn't tell Joseph who gifted Cora the fish. Instead, she asked Joseph to ask Cora himself. Naturally, Joseph had no intention of doing that. He knew Cora would never tell the truth.Still, Joseph had his wits about him. He tried hard to recall the details. The fish had been delivered two years ago, and at the time, Cora had even redesigned the courtyard just to build a pond for the fish. Joseph said to himself, "So they really did mean something special to her."Joseph suspected the person who gave Cora the fish was the lover, but suspicion alone meant nothing without evidence. After all, Cora was the kind of person who could even deny a DNA test.After smoking a cigarette, he went outside and saw that Cora was gone. Meanwhile, Mary was cleaning up, preparing to throw away all the fish.Joseph said, "No need to clean up. Go buy a few replacements from the pet store."Mary replied, "You can't get these from a regular pet store. Otherwise, Ms. Lowell wouldn't be this angry.

Bernard and Helen looked down on Joseph. On the other hand, he resented them for how they had raised Cora. In his eyes, the Lowell family were either bullies who bullied the weak or manipulators. He didn't want to stay there a second longer.Even his daughters wanted to go home with him, but they weren't allowed to. It was an undeniable fact that they were someone else's children.Just as Joseph stepped out of the house, he saw the Orimplad math tutor from before. "Mr. Hart, Ms. Lowell had me come over," greeted the tutor awkwardly. Considering that Joseph was the man of the house, the tutor forced a natural smile."Teach them well. You're a good tutor," replied Joseph, not making things difficult for the tutor before getting into the car and leaving.In the house, Helen returned to her room and called Cora. She asked in a lowered voice, "Has your affair been exposed? Joseph was hinting earlier that you've been spending time with other men. Tell me, are you working right now, or ar

Once Joseph was focused on work, his mind became completely calm. All of his attention was on analyzing the surgical recordings. Soon, he frowned.The failed surgery couldn't exactly be blamed on Travis' mistakes. Given his age and medical ability, that outcome was already the limit of what he could achieve. Even if Walt had been the lead surgeon, the outcome would likely not have changed.Every surgery carried risks. Even Joseph himself couldn't guarantee a perfect success rate. After replaying the recordings one more time, he wrote down a reflection. It was only then that he realized he was hungry and left the study.In the living room, Cora was reading a book. She looked calm and composed. When she saw Joseph come out, she lifted her head to look at him. She wanted to see what he would do next."I'm making a late-night snack. I'm just going to make chicken noodle soup. Do you want some?" Joseph asked casually, as though their fierce argument earlier had never happened.Cora fro

At Lowell Group, Fiona walked toward Cora with a box of roast lamb. She said, "Joseph sent this over. It's lamb leg meat. He told me to let you try it."So, this was the surprise Joseph had mentioned that morning. The aroma of roast lamb instantly caught Cora's attention. After taking a bite, she found the flavor excellent. She asked, "Did Joe come?""Yeah. He's downstairs handing out roast lamb to everyone. From the sound of it, he doesn't want to come up. I can drag him up if you want," responded Fiona."No need. If he doesn't want to come up, let him stay downstairs," said Cora. She felt a bit displeased, but after thinking about it, Joseph was currently enjoying the spotlight. She shouldn't compete with him over this.A while later, Fiona received a notification on her phone. She clicked into Joseph's post and discovered that he had asked everyone to rate his roast lamb."Joseph really knows how to win people over. Everyone ate his food, so, of course, they're praising him. Be

Although Joseph was no longer working at Jenton University Hospital, he was still a doctor at heart. After three days without treating patients, he felt restless. Jenton University Hospital no longer trusted him, but there were still people who believed in his medical skills, like the patient with rheumatic disease.Joseph went to the patient's home to perform acupuncture therapy. Afterward, he stayed for a simple meal before administering another round of treatment later that night. It was only then that he left together with Dolly.In the car, Dolly asked, "I didn't want to ask earlier while we were at their house, but how did things fall apart between you and Dr. Loughlin?"Joseph answered, "To tell you the truth, my marriage has hit some serious problems. I asked for a divorce, and my in-laws agreed to it, but my wife refuses to admit any fault and won't agree to the divorce."So, my father-in-law used Dr. Loughlin to force me out of the hospital. He even wants me out of Jenton
