Back in the living room, she poured herself a glass of water and drank it down in one go.

"Joseph, I was messing around in the kitchen earlier and worked up quite a sweat. I feel all sticky—I’m going to take a quick shower."

After finishing her drink, Alice announced.

"Alright, go ahead. I’ll just sit here for a bit."

Joseph responded casually.

Before long, Alice returned to her room. Moments later, she emerged again, carrying a change of clothes as she headed toward the bathroom.

Joseph settled onto the sofa and immediately sent a message to Heidi, inquiring about Bruce Cooper's condition.

Heidi responded swiftly with a voice message.

"Grandfather is doing much better now. His complexion has improved a lot."

"Brother-in-law, you're truly amazing. This afternoon, when I saw Grandpa coughing up blood, I was terrified."

"If it had been an ordinary doctor, he’d probably be in the ICU by now."

Heidi sent three messages in succession. Her voice was gentle and soothing, making Joseph feel i

    "This is the medicine I got from the pharmacy. It's for external use—can you spray it on for me?" Mason Alvarez said, her cheeks tinged with a soft blush as she handed over the bottle."Uh, sure—on your back?" Joseph asked, slightly unsure."Of course! Where else would you spray it?" Mason Alvarez replied matter-of-factly."Not a problem, but you'll need to lower your shirt a bit." Joseph said as he took the bottle from her hand."I know, just wait a second. What's the rush?" Mason Alvarez muttered, unfastening the buttons at the front of her blouse as she spoke.Watching this, Joseph couldn't help but think to himself—if anyone else overheard this exchange, who knows what they'd imagine! This Miss Alvarez really did have a way with words. Joseph silently sighed.In no time, Mason Alvarez had loosened her top, revealing her fair, delicate shoulders. The sight was undeniably alluring. She had always had a great figure—not overly slim, but her collarbones and shoulders loo

    “With that frame of yours? You do realize I’m the strongest man in Nova City, right?” “Just a few muscles and you think you can take on 246 kilos? Let me tell you, the national record is 253. Anyone who can push 246 is already among the country’s elite.”Drew flexed his muscles as he spoke.“Big muscles don’t always equal real strength,” Joseph said, shaking his head.“Still pretending? Trying to impress Dr. Riley, is that it?” “Yeah, I didn’t want to say it, but you’re clearly trying to show off.” “This guy’s just here to pick up chicks with a fake act.”The crowd murmured in agreement.“Enough! This is a hospital, not your personal gym. Back off and stop wasting my time.” Dr. Riley finally snapped.The crowd reluctantly stepped aside, clearing a path for Joseph, though they still lingered, eager to watch what would happen next.“Mr. Wilson, you may begin,” Riley said, her voice suddenly much gentler.Drew noticed the shift in her tone—and for the first time, a flicker of

    "Huh? What muttering? Did I say something? I don’t think I said anything!" Riley jumped slightly, panic flashing across her face.Oh no, did I just say that out loud? She felt a sudden wave of anxiety."You just said something about asking heaven for... something? I didn’t catch the last part," Forrest scratched his head, looking puzzled."Oh, that? I was praying for a promotion and a raise," Riley quickly responded, thinking on her feet."Ah, I want a promotion and a raise too, haha..." Forrest chuckled honestly."Ahem, well, if you want that, you’d better focus on doing your job well." "Forrest, Duncan, adjust the barbell weight to 246 kilos." Riley said in a serious tone."Got it. Is this for that muscle-man teacher again?" Forrest asked curiously."Who else could lift this kind of weight besides him?" Riley glanced in Joseph’s direction, her eyes slightly glazed.A man who attracts women is either handsome or physically strong. But the muscle-man teacher had bo

    She looked like she was in her early twenties. Even in her lab coat, her good figure was evident, and her face was even better.As she spoke with Mason, her eyes occasionally darted toward Joseph. There was a flicker of nervousness in her expression.“He’s the one getting tested again today. You remember him, don’t you?” Mason asked casually.“Of course I do. Isn’t this the muscle-man teacher from before?” Riley chuckled, sneaking another glance at Joseph.“Muscle-man teacher?” Joseph raised an eyebrow. That was… a strange nickname, to say the least."Yeah, that's right. The muscle-man teacher." "Your last bench press was 246 kilos—only seven kilos short of the national record." "With numbers like that, how could you not be a muscle man?" Riley smiled as she explained."Uh… okay. It just sounds kind of strange, that’s all." Joseph scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly."Strange? Everyone here knows you as the muscle-man teacher." Riley giggled behind her hand."Wel

    Joseph quickly understood and scratched the spot through her clothing.“How’s that? Better?” he asked after a few strokes.“Nope. It’s too dull—through the clothes, I can’t feel a thing.”“Mr. Wilson, could you put your hand under my shirt?” she asked directly.Joseph froze in place, utterly stunned.“Uh, putting my hand under your shirt… is that really okay?” Joseph was at a loss, a frown forming on his face.“What’s not okay about it? It’s not your first time doing something like this. It’s just your hand going in—not like I’m asking for anything more,” Mason Alvarez twisted slightly in her seat, visibly uncomfortable. “Hurry up, will you? I’m dying here—it’s so itchy.”“Well… alright then.” Joseph couldn’t say no to Mason Alvarez.He asked her to unbutton the top of her shirt. She undid two buttons, and he gently pulled the fabric down a little. Even though it was only two buttons, the moment her shirt slipped slightly off her shoulder, Joseph caught a glimpse of somethin

    Leonard Sanchez came rushing in from outside. Seeing the office door was open, he walked right in.“Principal, you called for me urgently—is something the matter?” Leonard Sanchez asked.“Old Sanchez, have a seat. Have some tea,” said Geoffrey Harris as he calmly poured a cup.Leonard Sanchez took a sip and set the cup down.“Old Sanchez, have you seen how Mr. Wilson’s free clinic went?” Geoffrey Harris asked.“The teachers have been talking about it in the staff group chat. Didn’t you praise Mr. Wilson yourself? How could I not know?”“I heard the response was phenomenal. I thought it was just a free clinic, but it was streamed online.”“I heard Nova University’s official Twitter livestream had over fifty thousand viewers at once.”“That’s unprecedented since the school was founded—and we gained over a hundred thousand new followers in a single day. This free clinic livestream wasn’t just effective—it was a sensation.”Leonard Sanchez couldn’t stop talking. He had to admit—this Mr. W
