After Rhea left, she went to tell Joseph what had happened. She then asked, "Do you think my dad has a way out of here? Will Joseph really help him?"As Joseph listened, he started wondering if there was really a loophole somewhere. But where could it be? Was Owen really that cunning? "Joseph will never help your dad. But since your dad wants to see him, there's no harm in letting them meet. I'd like to know what his escape plan is.""Huh? You really want to let Joseph in here? He's pretty sharp. If he starts scheming with my dad, they might actually figure a way out of here." Rhea was perplexed. But if Joseph did come to Emerald Mountain, chances were she might run into him, and that made her a little nervous. "Let's talk about it later," Joseph said. He didn't tell Rhea much about his plans. He could tell that she was completely loyal to him, but she wasn't particularly clever. Rhea was really naive, and there was a chance she might betray him. He didn't exactly trust her,

If there was even a chance that treasure was involved, it was always worth checking. Joseph managed to find that specific history book and found several places worth looking into. He cross-referenced the names with Jenton's historical records before narrowing the location to an old house in a village on the outskirts of the city. Finally, he had his people discreetly purchase the old house. As Joseph stood in the old house, unsure where to begin, he suddenly remembered a small detail from Owen's instructions on where to find the stash of gold bars. He had deliberately paced around the living room, then stopped at a particular spot and tapped it three times with his cane. Was that supposed to be a clue?Joseph was skeptical about it, but he still decided to give it a go. After determining the location, he had his trusted men start digging. Eventually, they did find a box about ten feet underground. Sure enough, it was filled with gold bars. There were exactly 50 of them. Jose

Joseph reminded Cora to be more careful and to take precautions to keep the family safe. Then he told her that he was going up the mountain to go into seclusion, and not long after, she could no longer reach him. Cora was speechless, but she was gradually getting used to it. She knew he would come see her after some time, satisfying both her needs and his.The truth was, Joseph had to go to Croma and keep posing as Zachary. As far as he could tell, no one had exposed his true identity. Joseph continued recruiting people in Jenton, but he didn't bring them into his security company. Instead, he quietly trained them to be his undercover operatives. These people would come in handy when it was time to deal with Rachel, who was probably still alive. They would also help him with Owen's retaliation, outsiders from the Croma faction, and the possibility that Cora might stab him in the back someday. All Joseph had to do was plan ahead and stay out of trouble. As long as his cover was

"Honey, what's going on? Who's asking to see you?" Yasmin asked as she walked downstairs. She wasn't about to let some other woman seduce her husband. "It's Claire. She's trying to set me up. She wants to see me." Joseph didn't bother hiding it from Yasmin. "Oh? Then are you going to see her? You're not afraid of a little trap, are you?" Yasmin asked, but deep down, she was furious. So she had been right. "I'm not, but I'm not about to take unnecessary risks. I'll probably be fighting the Howes for a while, and I'm not going to let that brat take me down that easily."The truth is, Claire's starting to lose her cool. If she's taking matters into her own hands by setting a trap for me, that means the Howes must be getting desperate." Joseph chuckled."That's what I thought!" Yasmin walked over. She sat on his lap, curled into his arms, and kissed him. Again? Joseph was getting a little frustrated. Sure, he was posing as Yasmin's husband, so there was nothing wrong with being i

The ball was back in Claire's court. Of course, she didn't trust Joseph. A woman's first time was special. He didn't even try to charm her or offer her anything in return, yet he still expected her to marry him. What a creep."Relax, Zachary. I'll definitely save myself for you. I'm so glad you're going to send someone to ask for my hand. I really want to know how much you're planning to offer my family." Claire let out a chuckle."Keep playing dumb then! Claire, I've got some news for you. If you refuse to marry me, you'll have to marry Henry. Congratulations in advance, then.""Henry? Who's that? I don't even know that guy. Why are you congratulating me in advance? Can you really stand to see me marry someone else?""Why not? Henry's already set his sights on you. It won't be long before he asks for your hand in marriage. You'd be his 9th or maybe even 13th wife. The Howes might turn me down, but they can't afford to refuse Henry."Joseph chuckled before continuing, "Your fami
