"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.

“It’s about the classes starting up.”Lincoln Myers spoke with a slightly ingratiating smile in his voice.“Oh, that. I remember. Don’t worry.”“What I promised still stands. As long as you coordinate properly, I’ll follow the school’s arrangements.”Only then did Joseph realize what he meant.“Aren’t we about to talk to old Sanchez anyway? I was worried you might have forgotten.”“If the principal steps in, this will basically be a done deal.”Lincoln Myers added.“That’s good. As long as you’ve discussed it and agreed, it’s fine.”Joseph replied.The two exchanged a few more casual remarks before hanging up.“You’ve been getting pretty close to Director Myers lately.”Mason Alvarez said offhandedly.“That’s because he’s my patient now.”Joseph smiled faintly.“Looks like you’ve completely won Director Myers over.”Mason Alvarez covered her mouth and laughed softly.“Hardly won him over. Just colleagues helping each other out.”Joseph chuckled.After finishing the call with Lincoln M

“No need. I’m feeling much better now. I’m a doctor myself—I know my own condition,” Joseph said with a smile.“Alright then. I’ll check the injury on your hand later,” Fiona said considerately. “For now, go wash up and eat something to settle your stomach.”“Okay,” Joseph replied, nodding.“I’ll go heat up some food for you, Joseph,” Alice said, and trotted eagerly into the kitchen.Ever since Joseph injured his hand, Alice had taken over most of the household chores.At her insistence, Mason Alvarez had become her assistant, helping out wherever needed.Watching the two of them busy themselves on his behalf, Joseph felt a twinge of guilt. Perhaps because he had always been the one taking care of others, being cared for in return felt oddly unfamiliar.Unfamiliar as it was, he was still deeply moved.After he had eaten a little, Mason Alvarez began examining his wound.The injury on Joseph’s hand was extensive, so she proceeded with great caution. With wounds of that size, ne

“That’s the general situation. What do you all think? Do you believe this project is viable?” Fiona swept her gaze across the room, asking with deliberate emphasis.“Of course it is. This is a guaranteed win—a rare opportunity for the Cooper family.”“Exactly. If even a project like this can’t be done, then there’s no project worth doing at all.”“I suggest we move immediately to avoid unnecessary delays. A drug like this should reach the market as early as possible—the sooner, the better.”“...”The opinions were almost unanimous, and everyone spoke with visible excitement. It was clear that they all had great confidence in the project.“Since there are no further objections, I’ll begin assigning tasks,” Fiona said with a faint smile. “When it comes to making money, we need to be both steady and fast—secure, yet swift.”“I have no objections.”“I’ll follow Miss Cooper’s arrangements.”“Same here!”“So will I!”“...”Everyone voiced their agreement.After that, Fiona began assigni

“Miss Cooper, you’re not joking, are you? Ever since the Morgan Group terminated most of its projects with us, we haven’t been able to find any suitable partners.”“Our business model has always been extremely narrow. Finding a partner on the level of the Morgan Group is incredibly difficult. And even if we do find one, they’re usually unwilling to work with us.”“Exactly. Without partners, how are we supposed to expand the business or launch new projects?”“...”The room filled with overlapping voices.“This time, I intend for us to do it ourselves and expand into new lines of business,” Fiona said.“In the past, our operations were limited to secondary processing of materials and the production of raw materials.”“But starting today, I want to lead everyone into something different. I plan to leverage our existing raw-material supply chain and develop our own pharmaceutical manufacturing, promotion, and sales operations.”“Miss Cooper, it’s still the same old problem,” someone said.

“Professor Wilson said he’ll come by tomorrow at three in the afternoon. He has some matters he wants to discuss with you,” Fiona replied.Old Mr. Cooper nodded slightly at her words. “Yes, that’s something that should be discussed.”“Then, Grandfather, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first. I need to get up early tomorrow morning,” Fiona said after finishing her report.“Go on, go on. Get some proper rest and make sure everything is arranged well tomorrow,” Old Mr. Cooper said gently.With that, Fiona took her leave.Heidi, together with the household staff, wheeled Old Mr. Cooper back to his room.Under normal circumstances, the old man would have already been asleep by this hour.At the same time, Joseph had returned home as well.Once he was back, Mason Alvarez checked Joseph’s wounds again and applied medicine that would aid healing.Alice, for her part, had specially prepared a nourishing soup to replenish his energy and calm his nerves. Naturally, all the ingredients we

“This medicine is excellent—specifically for treating women’s physiological issues.”“When it comes to dysmenorrhea, there’s virtually no drug on the market that can cure it at the root. If this medicine truly delivers effects comparable to a miracle drug—and even offers a complete cure—it would undoubtedly become a bestseller. An absolute blockbuster.”Old Mr. Cooper gazed at the documents before him, sighing with emotion.“I think so too,” Fiona agreed.“This was given to you by your brother-in-law?” Heidi asked, rolling her eyes.“Yes,” Fiona replied.“You didn’t take advantage of him again, did you?” Heidi couldn’t help but remark sarcastically.“As for profits, I never intended to shortchange him—if anything, I planned to give him more.”“Whether it’s the Cooper family or myself, we truly owe him a great deal.”Hearing this, Fiona’s delicate face showed a hint of awkwardness. Her younger sister was far too blunt—painfully honest, even. She gave her no face at all. If Fiona hadn’t
