"What does it have to do with you?" Blake Morgan was the first to reply.
"Grandpa is right. What does it have to do with you?" Alice also replied in the group.
Seeing their responses, Mason Morgan was speechless and could only send a series of question marks in the group to express his astonishment.
"Dad, although you have the final say in Alice's matters, and I trust your judgment, I should at least know what kind of man my daughter is going to marry, right? I'll find time to go over and take a look after a while. There are too many things going on here in Metropolis City at the moment. @Blake Morgan," after a long time, Mason Morgan sent another lengthy message.
"Do as you wish. It's not like you can change anything anyway," Blake Morgan said rather domineeringly.
"Dad, you're overthinking. It's only just beginning now!" Alice was obviously a bit exasperated too.
After replying, Alice put down her phone.
"Why aren't you eating yet?" At this moment, Joseph also came out from the kitchen. He placed the last dish on the table.
"Ah? I was waiting for you! I thought about it and felt it wasn't quite right to start eating alone," Alice was slightly stunned, then answered.
"Try it. No need to be so formal," Joseph picked up a piece of cheese steak for Alice, making her feel a sense of bliss.
"Thank you," Alice expressed her gratitude, then took a bite.
However, after just one bite, her expression changed, and she instantly froze.
"Um, how is it? Not tasty?" Joseph noticed Alice's unusual expression and asked.
However, Alice didn't answer. Instead, she picked up two more pieces and started eating.
"If it's not tasty, don't force yourself. Try something else?" Joseph blinked and suggested.
"Joseph, what are you saying? What do you mean by not tasty? It's too delicious! How can it be so delicious? This is the most delicious cheese steak I've ever eaten. It's simply too good."
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to eat first. It's too delicious," Alice couldn't wait to start eating. She was already a bit hungry, and with such delicacies in front of her, she found it even harder to control herself.
"This is delicious!"
"Oh, this is delicious too."
"This one, this one, even more delicious."
"Wow, this is the most delicious. It's too good."
As she ate, Alice kept praising Joseph endlessly.
Hearing this, Joseph felt a bit unreal. Was it really that delicious?
"Isn't this just an ordinary home-cooked meal? Is it really that delicious?" Joseph smiled awkwardly. Was this girl just teasing him?
"Joseph, you're being too humble. Whew, even the top chefs in my family can't make dishes as delicious as yours."
"Joseph, be more confident. You're really amazing and awesome," Alice continued to praise him while not stopping her hands from eating.
Joseph smiled and started eating too.
Alice ate more dishes, while Joseph ate more rice. Since childhood, Joseph had always had a huge appetite.
After about an hour, Alice was finally full. Although Joseph had a large appetite, he was already full at this point.
"If it's not enough, I can make more for you," Joseph noticed Alice's lingering desire for more.
"Ah? No, no. I can't eat anymore. Really can't eat anymore," Alice quickly responded.
She seemed to have been eating a bit like a wolf just now, not very ladylike. Would Joseph dislike her?
Thinking about this, Alice felt a bit uneasy.
"That's good then," Joseph smiled.
"Joseph, I don't usually eat so unladylike. Do you prefer gentler girls?" Alice asked tentatively.
"You just need to be the way you like. It doesn't matter what kind of girls I like," Joseph chuckled.
"How can that be? That's too casual," Alice shook her head.
"Then let me put it another way. I like all your ways," Joseph said with a smile.
"Ah? Are you serious?" When Joseph said this, Alice's pretty face instantly turned red. She turned around and fled back to her room.
Joseph watched Alice's departing figure and just laughed. She was already eighteen years old, yet still like a child.
After Alice left, Joseph began to clean up.
Back in her room, it took a long time for Alice's burning heart to cool down.
"So, Joseph likes me too. Does that mean we have mutual feelings?" Alice lay on the bed, hugging her big plush doll, talking to herself.
Suddenly, she thought of something, grabbed her phone, dialed Blake Morgan's number, and called.
Before long, the call was answered.
"Hello, Alice. How is it going? Have you arranged everything?" Blake Morgan's voice came from the other end of the line.
"Of course. It's not a difficult task. I've settled Joseph in," Alice replied.
"So, what's the matter? Calling grandpa so late?" Blake Morgan asked again.
"There's nothing in particular. I just wanted to tell you that Joseph's cooking skills are really good, much better than those top chefs in our family," Alice couldn't stop praising Joseph's culinary skills.
"Hahaha... Is that so? Now I want to taste it even more."
"However, I can't fully trust your opinion on it being delicious because, in the eyes of someone you love, even their flaws are virtues," Blake Morgan couldn't help but tease.
"What do you mean by 'someone you love'? My relationship with Joseph is not certain yet!" Alice said this, but her heart was happy.
"I remember three years ago, when Joseph married into the Cooper family, someone in our family hid and cried for a day and night, with swollen eyes."
"She even said Joseph Wilson had promised to marry her and that Joseph wasn't a man of his word," Blake Morgan teased again.
"Grandpa, you... Always teasing people. I won't talk to you anymore," Alice's pretty face turned slightly red, unable to keep a straight face. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Blake Morgan, she hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Alice opened F******k and found that her update had exploded with 99 comments.
Moreover, when she opened it, she saw that all 99 comments on the update were from the food photos she had just posted, mostly from boys.
"Alice, who is this man? He's not your boyfriend, is he?"
"Alice, are you in a relationship? Which family's young master is this?"
"Joseph? Who is Joseph?"
"Fuck, if he becomes your boyfriend, I'll kill him..."
"Hehe... Don't let me see this guy in Nova City. Every time I see him, I'll beat him up twice..."
Alice read the comments for a while. They were all a mess.

Chapter 737
“Wasn’t everything just fine? Why the ‘nourishing’ bit?”Joseph sighed, helpless.“Oh, drop the act. Haven’t you felt completely drained these past few days?”“Little Nini and I only stopped pestering you because we were worried you couldn’t handle it.”“Well? Don’t we treat you well?”Mason Alvarez shot Joseph a look as she spoke.“You’re both very good to me. Really.”Joseph’s answer was perfunctory, though a faint smile tugged at his lips.“Perfuctory.”“Then give me a kiss.”Mason Alvarez tilted her face to him.“This isn’t exactly appropriate. It’s early.”Joseph was exasperated.“What’s inappropriate about it? Hurry up.”Mason Alvarez wouldn’t let it go.Under her insistence, Joseph finally surrendered and brushed a light kiss against her impossibly lovely cheek.There was no denying it—she was pure witchcraft.Any other man would have lost his composure.“Smooch!”After his quick peck, Mason smacked a hot, lingering kiss right back onto Joseph.“I’m going to wash up.”Mason ros

For the next hour or so, Joseph endured a blissful kind of torment.Only after that did the two women finally set him free.He spent a short while in his room, then went to shower.When he came out, the hall was empty—Mason Alvarez and Alice were nowhere to be seen. It was only a little past ten, yet both had gone to bed early.Even more surprising, he drifted off without trouble. Neither of them sneaked in to tease him that night.It felt a little strange, but hardly a bad thing.Some things were best done in moderation. He could handle it, but Mason and Alice were still delicate; they shouldn’t be run ragged.After all, his constitution wasn’t exactly average.He hadn’t been in bed long before sleep took him.He turned in early; naturally, he rose early too.Before eight, he’d already made breakfast. The two lazybones, Alice and Mason, showed no sign of getting up.Since they wanted to sleep in, Joseph didn’t call them—he simply left breakfast set out on the table.After eating, he

“I just ate. I’m not hungry—no need for a late-night snack.”Joseph smiled.“Alright then—how about some fruit? I’ll go wash some.”Alice’s eyes sparkled; she grinned.“Fruit sounds perfect.”Joseph replied.“Then I’ll get it. Go sit on the sofa and relax.”She pecked Joseph on the cheek again before trotting off to the kitchen.“Unbelievable. I just said the fruit was gone and told her to wash some—she wouldn’t budge. Now she rushes off on her own.”“Priorities, priorities. Traitor to friendship. Wretched woman.”Mason Alvarez threw her arms up theatrically.“Why are you always bossing her around?”Joseph poured himself a glass of water and settled onto the sofa.“Mr. Wilson—mwah! mua! (╯3╰)”No sooner had he sat than Mason swooped in for a mock kiss, leaving Joseph momentarily nonplussed.“Tch. What’s that look? Are you disgusted?”“The little one kisses you and you beam. I kiss you and you look like you’ve swallowed a lemon.”“You shameless man—such favoritism.”Mason pouted at his

“Uncle, Auntie, wherever you came from, go back there. You won’t be homeless, will you? In any case, it’s no longer appropriate for you to stay here.”Charles Martin drew a long breath and spoke.“Charles?”Maria Long tried to say something, but the words wouldn’t come.“It’s decided. You have two or three days—move out. Tell me when you’re leaving. If you don’t, I’ll come by myself.”“All right, I’m busy. I’m hanging up.”Charles didn’t want to go in circles with Maria and Stephen any longer. He ended the call.Left with a dead line, Maria and Stephen simply stared at one another.“Joseph. It’s Joseph again—that insidious, scheming Joseph. Damn him.”“Why won’t he leave us alone, even now?”Maria found her voice at last, each word bitten off with spite.“Let’s think what to do. If we leave here, where can we go?”“I was thinking—could we return to the old house?”Stephen’s brow furrowed deep.“Stephen, are you out of your mind? Back to the old house? You think your heartless father w

“Soon—within a week or two. Once it’s set, I’ll tell you.”Her little cousin replied to Heidi almost at once.“Just come straight to the Cooper family estate. My parents probably don’t know what’s been going on at home, do they?”Heidi asked again.“Huh? What’s going on?”“You know my mom and your aunt don’t really get along. I don’t think they’ve spoken in ages.”Her cousin added.Heidi briefly filled her in on what had happened over the past weeks.Family scandal, perhaps—but no longer the point.“Oh? So that’s how it is. Then when we come, Mom and I will just visit you and our eldest cousin.”Her cousin said.“It’s up to you. But you should talk to Auntie—bring her up to speed.”Heidi instructed.“I know.”“I’ll tell my mom.”“Cousin, I’ve got to go—Mom’s calling me.”With that, her cousin said goodbye and fell silent.Heidi changed into her pajamas before stepping out of the bathroom.At that moment, Fiona was in the hall, reading with unruffled focus.Say what you will—Heidi hers
Chapter 732
“Dad, what I mean is, if we want Mr. Wilson to become the director of Nova University’s Sixth Affiliated Hospital, I can do my part to help push it along. I’m just worried he won’t be willing.”“By help, I mean I’ll be a bit proactive—do some quiet brokering.”Richard Anderson explained patiently.“Your son is the incoming director of the Nova City Health Bureau. He’ll be taking office soon, and he’s already acting in that capacity.”“The provincial office sent a letter asking for his recommendation on how to handle the Havencrest Medical Center land, didn’t they? He’ll have to weigh in on that.”“If, when the time comes, your son mentions Mr. Wilson to President Harris—says that it was Mr. Wilson’s intercession that allowed the land to go to Nova University—”“Then guess what? In the end, wouldn’t Nova University seriously consider Mr. Wilson as director of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital?”“At that point, even if Mr. Wilson isn’t keen, they’ll likely pin the top seat on him anyway.”T
