“If nothing unexpected happens, the Cooper family will also send someone to Nova City to deal with the affairs of the Nova City Coopers.”“The younger generation of the Metropolis City Cooper family lacks true talent. Benson Cooper is notoriously protective of his own, and the heirs he has raised are unlikely to amount to much.”“On this trip to Nova City, avoid unnecessary contact with them unless absolutely required.”Preston Gutierrez offered this final caution.“I understand. I’ve never had a favorable impression of the Cooper family’s younger members. I have no interest in dealing with them,” Wayne Gutierrez replied with a nod.“Do not wear your emotions on your face. Whether you feel disdain or favor, keep it buried within.”Preston Gutierrez nodded faintly.“I understand, Father.”Wayne responded.“If you were Benson Cooper, how would you handle the Nova City Cooper family?” Preston Gutierrez asked.“How would I handle it? Either destroy them—or bring them to heel. There are on

“Have a seat, please—sit.”Lincoln Myers greeted Joseph with warm enthusiasm the moment he saw him.“This really has nothing to do with me. Why insist on dragging me into it?” Leonard Sanchez muttered with mild irritation.“Well, Professor Wilson, we’ve asked you here today to finalize your teaching schedule for the new semester.”“Your situation is rather unique—you’ll be teaching in both the Department of Traditional Medicine and the School of Western Medicine. So we thought it best to bring you in and coordinate everything properly.”Geoffrey Harris spoke up at last.“I see.”“Honestly, I’m fine with whatever arrangements you make.”Joseph replied with easy indifference.“Professor Wilson, on the Western Medicine side, we’d like you to teach the foundational course in clinical diagnostics for internal medicine. What do you think?”Lincoln Myers was the first to propose it.“That works for me. I have no objections—I can take on that course.”Joseph agreed readily.“That’s excellent!

“It’s indeed very well done.”“The simplicity is especially fitting. This is a hospital—too much luxury would feel out of place.”“As it stands, it’s just right.”Joseph rose to his feet, glanced around, and spoke with an easy smile.“Unpretentious, unextravagant—calm and grounded. Young people like Professor Wilson are rare these days.”Leonard Sanchez could not help but remark with a sigh.“Absolutely, absolutely!”The others echoed in agreement.“You flatter me.”Joseph only gave a wry smile.“Professor Wilson, everyone—it’s about time. Let’s head to the meeting.”Geoffrey Harris called to the group.“Alright, I’m just about done here as well.”Joseph replied with a nod.The group began to file out. Mason Alvarez deliberately lingered at the back. Instead of walking alongside Joseph, she turned and shot him a playful, knowing look.Joseph merely responded with a glance of his own.Professor Alvarez, it seemed, was simply unwilling to let life grow dull.Before long, they arrived at

“I see. That makes sense now.”Clarence Bennett nodded as if everything had clicked into place.“Commander Bennett, thank you for telling me all this. I’ll have someone look into the details.”Joseph addressed Clarence Bennett again.“No need to thank me, Professor Wilson.”“For safety reasons, it may be difficult for me to contact you for a while.”“I don’t want my affairs to drag you into trouble. As long as Wayne Gutierrez doesn’t connect the dots, any investigation will be futile.”Clarence Bennett added.“Alright, don’t worry. Nothing will go wrong on my end.”Joseph replied with firm confidence.“That’s reassuring.”“Professor Wilson, I won’t keep you any longer. I’ll hang up now.”Clarence Bennett said.“Alright.”Joseph responded.With that, Clarence Bennett ended the call.But no sooner had Joseph put down his phone than it rang again.He glanced at the screen—it was Neil Foster.Joseph quickly answered.“Hello.”“Is that you, Young Master?”Neil Foster’s voice came through t

“It’s not that urgent—just something I need to discuss with you.”Joseph replied.“As long as it’s not pressing, then it can wait. Let’s eat first and talk over dinner.”“If it’s not urgent, then it’s certainly not more important than a meal. What could possibly be more pressing than eating?”Old Mr. Cooper said with a genial smile.“Well… alright then. Let’s eat first.”Joseph paused, realizing he might have been a bit too hasty.With that, they began their meal.After a while, Joseph spoke again.“Sir, here’s the situation.”“The Cooper family from Metropolis City has sent people to Nova City. I believe this is something you must know.”Joseph exhaled lightly before continuing.At his words, everyone at the table paused, falling into a sudden silence.Old Mr. Cooper set down his utensils.“What’s meant to come will come. Surely they didn’t travel all this way just for sightseeing.”He let out a cold chuckle.“After all these years, they still refuse to leave us alone?”Old Mrs. Coop

Why would Grandpa suddenly bring that up? Isn’t it awkward? He’s really going all out trying to marry both my sister and me off to him—unbelievable.Heidi kept her head lowered, her thoughts racing.Fiona also lowered her head, her mind elsewhere, a faint blush coloring her cheeks.The last time Grandpa had insisted she marry Joseph, she had resisted with everything she had. And now… she was silent.What did that silence mean?“Sir, perhaps we should leave that matter for another time. Let’s deal with the immediate issue first.”“Whether it’s out of respect for my mentor’s friendship with you, or my own friendship with Heidi, I will stand with the Cooper family.”“Besides, Fiona is now in charge of the joint venture. If anything happens to the Cooper family, it will inevitably affect me as well.”“So please, rest assured.”Hearing their words, Joseph felt his heart skip a beat. He steadied himself before speaking.“Grandpa, why would you suddenly say something like that? It’s so awkwa

After waiting for a while with no reply from Joseph, Heidi gave up.She put away her phone and skipped back, clearly in a good mood.It wasn’t until Joseph got home that he saw Heidi’s messages. He replied casually, chatted with her for a bit, and then turned to other matters.The night passed quickly.At a little past eight the next morning, a flight from Metropolis City landed at Nova City International Airport.About half an hour later, Wayne Gutierrez emerged from the arrival gate with his entourage.Behind him were officials of various ranks from Metropolis City. Their trip had been deliberately low-key—almost incognito.At that moment, a young man dressed in loud, gaudy colors stepped out as well.He looked to be in his early twenties, his face brimming with arrogance, as though nothing in the world deserved his regard.As soon as he exited, he scanned the area and quickly spotted Wayne Gutierrez ahead. He strode over in a rush.“Hey, Wayne Gutierrez, what’s your problem? I told

At those words, the hall erupted into prolonged applause, echoing for nearly a full two minutes.Joseph even gestured for quiet, but the clapping continued unabated.Only after a minute or two did it gradually subside.“I believe most of you already know me, so I won’t bother with a formal introduction.”“Thank you all for such a warm welcome. This is my first time teaching at Westside Hospital, so if there’s anything I don’t do well, I hope you’ll be patient—and feel free to point it out.”Joseph looked across the room, offering a few polite remarks.“Professor Wilson, you’re too modest. Having you teach here is a blessing for all of us.”“Exactly! Now we don’t have to sneak over to the traditional medicine department and listen through the windows.”“Even listening through a window would be worth it—there are students from other schools outside who don’t even get that chance!”“…”The students responded enthusiastically.“I won’t dwell on pleasantries any longer. Let’s move on to th

“This Nova City branch of the Cooper family may not be as grand as our headquarters in Metropolis City, but it’s passable.”“Still, it’s nothing more than a backwater. The scale and refinement fall short.”Outside, the scrawny young man walked in with his hands clasped behind his back, following Uncle Alvarez into the rear hall.“You’re nothing but a servant, yet you dare strut about here? If that foul mouth of yours doesn’t shut, don’t blame me for forgetting my manners.”Uncle Alvarez shot him a fierce glare.The young man had been about to retort, but the moment their eyes met, a chill ran through him. His bravado faltered.“Ahem… ahem…”He cleared his throat, putting on a composed front to mask his unease.After that warning, he didn’t dare say another word.Though he served the Cooper family of Metropolis City, he was, after all, on чужой ground—better not invite trouble.He told himself that once the young master arrived, there would be plenty of time to humiliate this Nova City

"Grandfather is getting old. This family truly needs a man who can step forward.""Joseph would undoubtedly be the most suitable… unfortunately, he is no longer my grandson-in-law.""We’ll inform him later."Old Mr. Cooper sighed."Mr. Wilson isn’t a petty man. As long as we ask, he’ll help with anything."Heidi said."But under what pretext? He is no longer my grandson-in-law."Old Mr. Cooper replied helplessly."Grandfather, why are you always fixated on the idea of a grandson-in-law?"Heidi said awkwardly."If the Cooper family wishes to go further in the future, we must rely on Joseph.""Only if you or your sister become his woman will the bond between the Cooper family and Joseph become unbreakable.""That’s how I see it—and the Morgan family thinks the same.""But fate rarely follows our calculations."Old Mr. Cooper sighed again, his tone filled with resignation."All this calculating—didn’t you say matters of the young should be left for them to decide?""Enough. Let’s eat. Yo
