"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.

“Camden Murphy, what do you think you’re doing? This is the Central Council—how can you silence others?”“And how many times have I told you? When we’re at work, don’t call me ‘Father.’ Address me by my title.”Vincent Murphy rebuked him sharply.“Yes, Father—”“No—Mr. Roberts.”Camden Murphy caught himself mid-sentence, corrected awkwardly, and shot Terence Roberts a venomous glare.“Someone escort Mr. Terence Roberts outside. Let him cool his head.”Vincent Murphy said, looking directly at Terence Roberts.Several men immediately stepped forward, seized Terence Roberts, and began dragging him out.“Vincent Murphy, you traitor! You persecute the loyal and betray the nation—you won’t die a peaceful death! You’ll be nailed to history’s pillar of shame and cursed for generations—!”Even as he was hauled away, Terence Roberts continued to shout.Vincent Murphy merely closed his eyes, remaining silent.“Gentlemen, this meeting is meant to find a way to stabilize the situation—not to liste

“The doctor says it’s nothing serious—just exhaustion.”“But these past few days, I can’t shake the feeling that her mental state isn’t quite right.”“You’re the real expert in this field. If you have the time, please drop by and take a look.”“She’s always so busy—everything in this household, big or small, falls on her shoulders. She never spares a thought for her own health. As her grandfather, I can’t help but worry.”Old Mr. Cooper spoke as he walked, his voice tinged with concern.“All right. I’ll go check on her when I have the time.”Joseph gave a slight nod as he replied.“Then I won’t keep you any longer. I should be heading back.”“Now that I’ve taken on responsibilities again, there’s more than just the family business to handle.”“At my age, I still hope I can be of some help to you.”Old Mr. Cooper came to a stop, smiling faintly.“Take care of yourself as well, sir.”Joseph inclined his head.“Oh, don’t you worry about me. I’m in excellent health—I don’t plan on dying a

“Most people aren’t buying it. Anyone with eyes can see something’s off.”“As things stand, the more the Central Council tries to deny it, the more they’re only hurting themselves.”“The additional footage we hold clearly shows they’re dismantling the nation’s most advanced weapons.”“With our video evidence, combined with the copy of the Peace Dove Project in your possession, we can ignite public opinion completely—without a doubt,” Neil Foster said with firm conviction.“Good. Over the next few days, we’ll act according to how things unfold,” Joseph nodded.“Young master, there’s another important piece of news,” Brian Adams added, his expression grave.“What is it?” Joseph asked.“Old Neil, you explain—you’ll make it clearer,” Brian said, turning to him.“Young master, according to intelligence gathered both from our side and the Southern Frontier, Dreadmoor’s forces are quietly mobilizing.”“Their assembly point is toward our eastern coastline, on the western flank of the Dreadmoo

“We still need to remain here for a while to handle a few matters. If you’re not in a hurry to return, young master, you could stay as well,” Neil Foster replied.“I won’t be staying. I’ll head back to the city now and return to Nova City this afternoon,” Joseph said, shaking his head slightly.“In that case, we won’t see you off,” Neil Foster and Brian Adams exchanged a glance.“Go ahead and handle your work—don’t worry about me.”“I’ll be on my way as well.”With that, Joseph wheeled out his bicycle, bid them farewell, and rode off.Before long, his figure faded into the morning mist.“Let’s finish up here and head back to Nova City as well.”“It’s better if we’re there to keep watch,” Brian Adams said.“Agreed,” Neil Foster nodded, turning back inside, with Brian Adams following close behind.After leaving the Good Fortune Farmhouse, Joseph made his way toward the city.By the time he returned to the hotel, daylight had fully broken.He washed up briefly, had a quick meal, and went

“If such a day truly comes, we will act according to circumstances.”“But no matter what, as long as we wait, the opportunity will present itself.”“This time, in coming here, I also hope to establish some concrete forms of cooperation with all of you.”Joseph gave a slight nod before addressing the group.“Whatever ideas you have, young general, please speak freely,” they replied in unison.“The senior scientists from the Academy have long sought to preserve the work of their lifetimes. Through Nova University, they intend to safeguard their theoretical research.”“In the time ahead, more and more of them will come to Nova City—to Nova University.”“What they bring with them will be the theoretical foundations and manufacturing methods of advanced weaponry. If these can be utilized by the Southern Frontier forces, the benefits would be immense.”Joseph rose to his feet, his tone steady.The others nodded in agreement.“In truth, I have already been working in this area.”“As for the

“The other reason—an even more important one—is for the country, and for our people.”“In these times, the righteous are cast into obscurity while swine and curs sit in the halls of power. The Central Council has fallen under the control of the three great families, and corruption runs rampant.”“And beyond that, there is the utterly disgraceful Peace Dove Project—a betrayal of the nation itself.”Dale Jimenez’s gaze darkened, his voice heavy with restrained anger.“The Peace Dove Project?”Clifford Castillo, Malcolm Sanchez, and Norman Price all froze at the unfamiliar term.Brian Adams, Joseph, and Neil Foster already knew of it—but for Clifford Castillo and the others, this was the first they had heard of such a thing.“The Peace Dove Project is exactly what it sounds like. And my master—he was killed because of it,” Joseph said quietly.“So you’re aware of it as well, young general?” Dale Jimenez looked at him, unsurprised.“For the past few years, I had lost my memory. But now… e
