"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.

    “As for the subsidiary, I never intended to devote too much of my energy to it. But there’s no denying that its development is extremely important.”“Just as you said, Grandfather, I do need to entrust its management to someone I truly trust.”“Because I genuinely don’t have the time to oversee it myself. Once the semester begins, I’ll be taking up the position of director at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Nova University.”“In the period ahead, most of my attention will likely be consumed by the hospital and other responsibilities.”Joseph gave a slight nod, clearly in agreement with old Mr. Cooper.“That’s why I’m offering Fiona as an option. If you think it’s suitable, she’s more than capable—and she’s someone you can trust.”old Mr. Cooper reiterated.“Grandpa, Professor Wilson, what are you talking about?”At that moment, Fiona walked in, a faint smile playing on her lips.“Speak of the devil.”old Mr. Cooper remarked.“Nothing much, just casual conversation.”Joseph replied of

Professor Wilson, please rest assured.”“You’ll find that every step we take will be cautious. That’s our chance with the Cooper family.”“Once you lose an opportunity like this, there probably won’t be a second one. I truly cherish a chance like this.”Fiona replied with a few messages.“As long as you approach it carefully—that’s all I ask.”Joseph said briefly.“Then, Professor Wilson, I don’t have anything else. As for setting up the joint venture company, tomorrow you can talk it through with old Mr. Morgan and with Grandfather.”“As for me, I’m the one responsible for executing the details. Whatever you decide, I’ll carry it out.”Fiona added.“Alright. See you tomorrow.”After Joseph replied simply, he didn’t say anything else.Once he finished chatting with Fiona, Joseph went to wash up and get some rest.Time passed quickly.The next day, it was

    Joseph watched the commotion below and could only shake his head and smile—speechless, but amused.He’d expected the students’ passion for learning to be high.Nova University students were understandable. After all, anyone admitted to Nova University was a top-tier academic—true prodigies.But he hadn’t expected students from other schools to barge in and listen too.After looking for a moment, Joseph reposted the announcement about his Western hospital classes onto his own page, adding the words “Confirmed.”“I personally confirm that I will be teaching at the Western hospital.”The instant the repost went out, it drew the attention of countless people.“Holy—this is Professor Wilson’s first tweet! Alive and well, Professor Wilson! Is this account actually being handled by Professor Wilson himself?”“Confirmed. It’s real—he’s really coming to teach at our Western hospital. Long-awaited at last. Professor Wilson, look here—this is the Cardiothoracic Surgery department. We’re all wait

    “Don’t worry, the two of you. As long as everything is negotiated properly, I won’t have any issues on my end.”Joseph said with a smile.“With you saying that, we can rest easy.”“Then, Professor Wilson, I won’t keep you. You’re busy.”After the three of them said their goodbyes, they finally hung up.Once the call ended, Joseph let out a quiet breath.But before he could even head home, his phone rang again. This time it was Leonard Sanchez.After a brief conversation with Leonard Sanchez—mostly intended as congratulations—Joseph could only thank him politely.Then, one after another, Felix Baker, Brady Rogers, various leaders from Nova University, and several other professors who were close to Joseph all called to offer their congratulations as well.Joseph thanked each of them in turn. As for etiquette and how he treated people, he was still more than capable.Still, after this run of calls, he’d lost count of how many he’d taken.It wasn’t until about an hour later that no more c

    “Professor Wilson, if that’s the case, then everything is perfectly fine.”“I can almost see the bright future of Nova University’s Sixth Affiliated Hospital.”“And if the Sixth Affiliated Hospital succeeds, then the other affiliated hospitals of Nova University should follow suit and keep pace.”“We’ll make Nova University’s name and reputation known far and wide.”Geoffrey Harris spoke with ambition.“I’ll talk with the administration then and align everyone on the future direction for Nova University’s Sixth Affiliated Hospital.”“Even though I’m the dean, I can’t call all the shots by myself. I still need everyone’s support to make sure the work gets done properly.”Joseph said with a smile.“Absolutely, absolutely. You’re right—of course you are.”“Professor Wilson, you’re thinking too carefully. Honestly, I’ve been thinking all the time—ever since I started working with you, I’ve always felt that you were young, and I couldn’t help wanting to remind you of things.”“Now I see: w

    “I didn’t have it at first. But after I took time to restore my health, it went away.”“The one who wrote your prescription is Professor Patricia Roberts from your Traditional Chinese Medicine program. She’s—well—arguably the most authoritative gynecological specialist in that department.”Mason Alvarez explained.“I see.”Joseph gave a slight nod.“But compared to what Professor Wilson has created, it still falls far short.”“There are ways in Traditional Chinese Medicine to help with women’s ailments. The problem is that the process takes too long. Many girls can’t stick with it, and—more often than not—they have to observe strict dietary restrictions.”“Professor Wilson, this formula addresses many similar issues. Take it as prescribed, and you can see results in a short time—that’s the unique advantage of this new medicine.”Mason Alvarez delivered his critique with precision.“When I first formulated it, I drew on countless ancient texts, and conducted countless—countless—trials.
