The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 355
Under the comment posted by the user with the James profile picture, a flood of inquisitive netizens gathered, all eager to uncover the identity of the man whose piano performance had touched their hearts so deeply.After keeping everyone in suspense long enough, the user finally revealed the answer. "I’m a student at Nova University. This gentleman is our teacher—Mr. Joseph Wilson. At least, I’m fairly certain it’s him." "Whoa, no wonder! Turns out he’s a big shot from Nova University’s Music Department. That explains the brilliance. He made Butterfly Lovers sound like a divine symphony. 'Today I heard him speak through the pipa, and it felt like celestial music piercing the soul.'" "Actually, just to clarify, Mr. Joseph isn't from the Music Department. He’s the youngest faculty member in the Traditional Medicine Department—just joined less than a month ago," James replied again. "I’m also a student at Nova University. The person in the video does resemble Mr. Wilson, but not ent

"Mr. Wilson, about that request you made earlier—to compile my wife's medical records—I stayed up last night and got it all done."Brady Rogers cleared his throat, his tone unusually eager."Oh? That fast? Where are the documents? Let me take a look."Joseph was a bit surprised—he hadn’t expected Rogers to be so efficient."Right here.""Please have a look, Mr. Wilson."As he spoke, Brady lifted a thick stack of folders from beneath his desk."Just leave it on my table. I’ll go through it and let you know."Joseph glanced at the pile of medical records and CT scans. Even skimming it would take considerable time."Much appreciated, Mr. Wilson."Brady placed the documents in front of Joseph but didn’t make any move to leave."Professor Rogers, you don't have to wait here. Go ahead with your work—no need to tire yourself out."Joseph noticed him standing stiffly in front of his desk and tried to persuade him."It’s alright, Mr. Wilson. I’d rather wait. I’m... quite anxious, honestly."Br

"Hello? Uncle Mason? What’s the matter?"Joseph answered the call, taking the initiative to speak first."My dear future son-in-law, are you alone right now?"Mason Morgan’s voice came through the line, sounding a little secretive."Uh, yeah. I’m the only one in the office at the moment. Everyone else is off—some are teaching, some are in the lab, and others are running errands."Joseph glanced around before replying."Good, that’s perfect. I’ve got a rather private question for you."Mason sounded visibly relieved."Sure, Uncle Mason. Ask whatever you want."Joseph blinked in surprise, but responded casually."Remember how you said my body would recover most of its function within three days?"Mason began cautiously."I did say something to that effect, yes."Joseph nodded, recalling the conversation."You definitely said it. So I want to ask—were you being serious?"Mason pressed."Of course I was serious. If it comes out of my mouth, it’s the truth. I don’t make empty promises.""B

"What do you mean 'looks like'? That's clearly Mr. Wilson—my former brother-in-law, mind you!" After watching for a while, Heidi spoke with absolute certainty."Are you really that sure, Heidi?" A short-haired girl glanced at her, skeptical."Of course I am! I lived under the same roof with him for three years. I can recognize his speech patterns, his every little habit and gesture without even thinking. Even if there are many things about him that I don't fully understand, I'm too familiar with who he is. I can even recognize his scent the moment he gets close.""So yeah, I'm a hundred percent sure—that's my brother-in-law. Well... ex-brother-in-law," Heidi declared, her tone firm."Geez! Honestly, it sounds like those three years, Wilson wasn't married to your sister at all, but to you," Daphne teased, a strange feeling rising in her heart. The intimacy between Heidi and Joseph, the depth of her understanding of him, seemed almost excessive—far beyond what normal relatives or ev

Even before the final bell, Joseph was already sitting in his car, waiting patiently for Alice. He sat quietly, glancing idly into the left rearview mirror—only to spot a few familiar figures reflected within.Seeing the situation, Joseph reached out and adjusted the rearview mirror, giving himself a clearer view of the people behind the car. At that moment, on the balcony of the First Teaching Building, a few students stood, their gazes cold and sharp, fixed on Joseph’s car.Joseph recognized them all. Leading the group was Raymond Kim, flanked by his ever-present sidekick—someone named Jonathan, if he recalled correctly. Another figure was Scrappy, a non-student who Joseph had once taught a painful lesson. University campuses were generally open spaces; unless someone behaved outrageously, outsiders wouldn't be barred entry.What surprised Joseph was the presence of Griffin Bailey, who had relentlessly pursued Heidi before. Yet, thinking it through, it made sense—both Griffin'

"Even from a short distance, you can catch a whiff of a strange, foul mixture of odors. It’s obvious this man is addicted to debauchery, steeped in nightlife excess. He’s riddled with various venereal diseases—he's utterly filthy.""So, it's best to stay as far away from people like him as possible. Many diseases are contagious," Joseph said with a faint smile."My grandfather once took me to dinner with his father, and he was there too. Was I in danger back then?" Alice asked, a flicker of fear crossing her face."It's not that serious. Most diseases of that nature require intimate contact to spread. A shared meal isn't enough. You’re perfectly healthy—there’s nothing to worry about.""But keeping your distance is still wise," Joseph added reassuringly."Phew, that's a relief," Alice exhaled deeply."Joseph, by what you’re saying, Raymond Kim doesn't have long to live," Alice said, half-joking but with a trace of genuine concern."Not necessarily that he'll die soon, but he’l

"Are you stupid? There’s no such thing as a secret that doesn't leak," Raymond Kim sneered. "We’re talking about the Morgan family here—a force that dominates both politics and business across Elysia. Their wealth alone could crush you to death.""You think the Morgans are like your pathetic Zhang family? You must be out of your mind." "No matter what, I’ll never gamble my entire family’s future. If anything happens, my father would kill me himself.""And the entire Kim family would fall with me. Tell me, is it worth the risk?" Raymond Kim ranted as he slapped Griffin Bailey across the face repeatedly, forcing him to shield his head and take the blows.After venting his anger, Raymond felt much better. Indeed, happiness often came at the expense of others' suffering."Mr. Kim, I believe we can still use the fact that he was a live-in son-in-law against him," Jonathan spoke up again."But that's just one angle; we need more dirt to make it stick," he added."Can you say anything

"Matched? I've told you before, Alvarez and I are just putting on an act," Joseph said, feeling a little helpless. Today, Heidi was acting oddly."That's what you think. But Alvarez may not see it that way! She's not exactly young anymore—of course, she'd latch onto you," Heidi replied.Joseph gave her a look. "You're acting really strange today.""Because it’s like the saying—rain will fall, and my brother-in-law will marry," Heidi said dramatically.Joseph nearly stumbled at her words. Was that even how the proverb was supposed to be used?!"What nonsense. I'm a man—how am I supposed to get married?" Joseph said, thoroughly exasperated."Brother-in-law, you have no idea. There are so many little junior girls at school watching you now. Girls who are prettier, have better figures, and better personalities than me—plenty of them," Heidi said wistfully."I'm a freshly divorced man. It’s not as dramatic as you make it sound. Right now, I just want to focus on my work," Jose

Joseph listened in silence before speaking again.“Cancer remains one of the most formidable illnesses in the world. Even with my master’s abilities, curing your condition would’ve been no easy feat.”This was the reality of cancer—it wasn’t like in those fictional tales where a miracle doctor could cure it with a single acupuncture session. To Joseph, such stories were nothing more than fantasy.“You’re right. But your master was truly remarkable. He used his extraordinary methods to keep me alive for years. Still, he couldn’t completely cure me.”“Though I was alive, I lived in constant agony, hiding away in hospital rooms, unwilling to face people. Only your master and I knew the truth of my illness.”“To the outside world—to my sons and grandchildren—I was simply growing weaker by the day. They were just waiting for me to die so they could tear each other apart for power.”“But as long as I was alive, they didn’t dare act openly. If they had known I was terminal, known exactly whe
