The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 123: Fixated on Joseph
"I heard Professor Wilson is going to demonstrate a high-difficulty bone realignment technique today. It’s a rare chance to see such a procedure in action, so even grad students from the medical school have come to watch.""Professor Wilson is incredible. His classes are so popular!""Of course they are! I’ve been saying it all along—having Professor Wilson teach Orthopedic Surgery is the best thing that’s ever happened to us."The students buzzed with excitement, their voices filled with admiration and anticipation."Good morning, esteemed professors and fellow students," Joseph began as he stepped onto the podium. His calm, confident demeanor immediately captured the room’s attention. "Many of you attended yesterday’s lecture, so you should already be familiar with me. For those who aren’t, allow me to introduce myself again." He paused, scanning the room with a faint smile. His poised, charismatic presence made it clear he was ready to deliver a memorable lesson."Mr. Wilson, let’

Meanwhile, another round of applause erupted in the classroom. Joseph had just finished questioning over a dozen students and proceeded to offer a detailed analysis of Charles Martin’s injuries.Time flew by amidst the engaging lecture. The students, engrossed in Joseph’s explanations, were surprised when the bell rang, signaling the end of class."Class is over already? That felt so fast!""Mr. Wilson’s lectures are always so captivating. No wonder time flew by.""Every time I attend his class, I feel like I’m opening the door to a whole new world.""At least this semester, we’ll get to attend his lectures regularly!"The students chattered excitedly, their praise for Joseph ringing through the room.But Charles Martin, sitting off to the side, was far less enthusiastic. After enduring an entire class of Joseph’s antics, he finally couldn’t hold back any longer."What’s with this nonsense? You spent most of the class asking students questions, then went on about theory for another tw
The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 125: Just to See You
“Ventilation, huh? Is that really the reason?” Heidi asked with a knowing smirk.Joseph cleared his throat, trying to change the subject. “Heidi, you’re not even a medical student. Could you even understand my lecture?”“Of course not! I didn’t come here to learn,” she replied matter-of-factly.“Then why are you here?” Joseph asked, taking a sip of water to mask his discomfort.“Obviously, I came to see *you*! And to witness Charles Martin make a fool of himself. I’ve already seen you in action—gotta say, you looked pretty dashing up there, brother-in-law. Why didn’t I notice before how charismatic you are?”Heidi’s words flowed effortlessly, her tone both playful and sincere.“Alright, enough of that. I need to head back. Charles Martin’s hand still needs fixing—if I don’t treat it soon, it might end up permanently damaged,” Joseph said, glancing at the clock.“Why bother? That guy’s been out to get you from the start. Let his hand stay ruined—it’d serve him right,” Heidi huffed, cle

“Let’s get a chair for Professor Martin. He’ll need to sit for this,” Joseph instructed, his voice steady and commanding. The students quickly followed his directions, and soon everything was prepared.An eerie silence settled over the room. The atmosphere grew tense, and even Charles Martin, now seated, felt an inexplicable chill.“Does anyone have something for Professor Martin to bite on? I’m worried he might bite his tongue,” Joseph said suddenly, breaking the silence.“Wait, hold on, Professor Wilson—will it really hurt that much? Enough for me to bite my tongue?” Martin asked, his voice trembling slightly.“Professor Martin, your hand is severely swollen. To restore it through manual adjustment, there’s only one way,” Joseph said, pausing deliberately as if to build suspense.“What… what way?” Martin’s voice wavered, his growing dread evident.“Strength brings miracles,” Joseph declared, his tone calm and matter-of-fact. “Since strength is involved, the pain is inevitable.”With

“Young and fearless—that’s what I see in you. It reminds me of my own younger days. As we age, it’s not that our skills diminish, but our courage does.”“I can already feel the fresh energy Professor Wilson has brought to our department. Our field of traditional Chinese medicine sorely needs more talented young doctors like him.” The professors from the TCM department clapped and spoke with admiration, showering Joseph with praise.“Professor Wilson, today you’ve truly opened my eyes,” Leonard Sanchez said as he approached Joseph, extending his hand for a firm handshake. This lecture was undoubtedly a moment of pride for the TCM department, especially with so many attendees from other disciplines and modern medical institutions.“Your courage is remarkable, Professor Wilson. Faced with such a complex case, many of us wouldn’t dare to act,” Geoffrey Harris said as he stepped forward, shaking Joseph’s hand warmly. His tone carried genuine admiration for Joseph’s ability to resolve the

“Alright, enjoy your meal,” Joseph replied, knowing that Heidi was likely already at the restaurant and too busy eating to check her phone.Just as he was about to put down his phone, it started buzzing. Alice’s name lit up the screen.“Joseph, have you eaten yet?” Alice’s sweet voice came through the line.“Uh… not yet, actually. I just finished everything here,” Joseph admitted, momentarily taken aback by her call.“I figured as much! I called earlier, but you didn’t pick up. I knew you must’ve been swamped with students,” Alice said with a hint of concern in her voice.“They were just… very enthusiastic,” Joseph replied with an awkward laugh.“Well, I’m already on my way to the university, and I’ve brought you some food. I couldn’t finish the dishes you made this morning, so I added two simple dishes I cooked myself. Just make do with it,” Alice said warmly.“You cooked?” Joseph asked, genuinely surprised.“Of course! Don’t worry, it’s probably not terrible. I didn’t have much to d
The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 129: This is Called Love
“Well? Do you believe me now?” Heidi said smugly, clutching her lunchbox tightly to protect it from further “damage.”“Alright, I believe you! Does your brother-in-law bring you food every day? I’m so jealous—this is top-tier chef-level cooking!” Daphne asked, her curiosity piqued.“Not every day, but today was a coincidence. Even if it were every day, he wouldn’t refuse. He works at Nova University now, so it’s not a big deal for him to bring me food. Even though he’s divorced from my sister, he still dotes on me. He wouldn’t say no if I asked,” Heidi said, her tone carrying a hint of pride.“Wait, your brother-in-law works at Nova University? Is he a professor?” the short-haired girl asked, picking up on the key detail in Heidi’s words.“Girl, professors at Nova University are all highly educated and usually over forty. They’re basically a bunch of old men. So, which old professor is your brother-in-law?” Daphne teased, clearly enjoying herself.“What nonsense are you spouting? My b

“In psychology, when you’re afraid of losing someone, it’s a sign that you’ve already fallen for them. Let me guess—you feel uncomfortable whenever you see him with another woman, don’t you?” the short-haired girl asked, her tone knowing.“How do you know that?” Heidi asked, her eyes wide with surprise.“Because you have feelings for him. Those feelings may have already blossomed into love. Let me ask you this—if he were hurt, homeless, or in trouble, would you feel heartbroken for him?” the short-haired girl asked gently, testing her.“Of course! He’s my brother-in-law. He’s family,” Heidi answered without hesitation.“But he’s not your brother-in-law anymore. He’s divorced from your sister, which means he’s no longer your family. So… in what capacity are you feeling heartbroken for him?” Daphne pressed, her words cutting straight to the point.“As… a friend?” Heidi ventured hesitantly.“That’s where you’re wrong. If he were just a friend, why do you still call him ‘brother-in-law’ e

"Brother-in-law, I’m heading out. I’m going to Grandma’s today to mooch a meal and maybe gather some information about her side of the family." "Honestly, I didn’t want to go so early, but the food at home is unbearable. Brother-in-law, I miss your cooking so much. I even dream of you when I sleep." Joseph chuckled at her dramatic complaint and replied: "Go and check things out, then. While you’re there, try to ask about your grandfather. You can casually bring up my willingness to treat him." "But remember, you need to be tactful. Lead the conversation carefully and gradually change her opinion of me. Build her trust little by little. Only then can I earn her support. Do you understand what I mean?" He typed quickly, sending the message without hesitation. Moments later, Heidi replied with a voice message. Her soft, sweet voice carried a hint of flirtation, sending an involuntary shiver down his spine. "Got it, brother-in-law! I’m not stupid. Why are you so naggy?" Joseph cou

“Of course not! Because I’ve never had a boyfriend or kissed anyone either. My first kiss is still safe and sound!”She declared it with a sense of pride.“Uh… why are you telling me this?”Joseph asked cautiously, starting to sense that something wasn’t quite right.Leaning in closer, Heidi’s voice dropped to a teasing whisper.“Brother-in-law, do you want to experience a girl’s first kiss?”Joseph’s face turned crimson, and he quickly stood up, flustered.“This… this isn’t appropriate! If your sister finds out, she’ll kill you! Let’s just forget this ever happened. I need to get back to the office.”Heidi, however, grabbed the collar of his shirt with surprising strength, pulling him back down. Their faces were now mere inches apart.<

Joseph chuckled as he unwrapped the food.“Which brother-in-law gave it to you?”He teased.“I only have one, silly!” Heidi retorted playfully. “That tall, handsome, charming older man named Joseph Wilson! You know him?”Feigning innocence, she batted her lashes and asked,“Excuse me, handsome, what’s your name?”“Joseph Wilson,” he replied casually.“What a coincidence! You have the same name as my brother-in-law!”She grinned mischievously.“Alright, stop fooling around and eat. I have to head back to the office soon,” Joseph said with a helpless smile.“Let me see what goodies you brought!”Heidi eagerly opened the containers. “Wow, this smells amazing! Is this bone broth?

"Technically, it’s a medicinal soup. A couple of days ago, I gave my ex-wife’s younger sister a prescription for a strong medicine. The side effects make her body weak, so this soup should help alleviate that weakness," Joseph explained patiently. "Oh? So it’s for your little sister-in-law? You’re really good to her," Alice said, wrinkling her nose slightly, her tone laced with a hint of jealousy. "It’s not about being good or bad. She’s taken care of me in her own way over the years. You know me—I always repay kindness when I can," Joseph said with a faint smile. "Fine. If even you say she’s a good person, then I suppose I won’t be jealous," Alice said, sitting down at the dining table and resting her chin on her hands, her expression relaxed. "She’s alright. A bit mischievous at times, but overall, not bad," Joseph replied nonchalantly. "Alright, then. For her past kindness to you, I’ll let it slide," Alice said with an exaggeratedly serious nod. "Did I say you were jealous? Y

"I thought he was just being polite when he mentioned it, but he actually bought it for me!" "And it’s the top-of-the-line flagship model! I’ve wanted this phone for so long but could never justify spending the money!" Her face lit up with unrestrained joy as she admired her new phone. After a moment, she decided to take a few pictures and send them to Joseph. "Brother-in-law, did you buy this? 【Love You.jpg】" She sent the message, complete with a playful emoji. But after waiting for a while, there was no response. "Ugh, that jerk! He sends me such an expensive gift but doesn’t even bother replying to my message." Heidi pouted, grumbling under her breath. Unable to wait any longer, she dialed his number. The phone rang for several seconds before Joseph finally answered. At that moment, he had just stepped out of his car and was about to enter his house. "Hello? Heidi? What’s up?" Joseph asked casually. "Brother-in-law, I got the package! It’s amazing—I love it so much!" Heidi

"If you want to go, I’ll go with you," Joseph said, smiling warmly. "Really?" Alice’s eyes lit up with delight. "Of course. Why would I lie about something like that? I don’t have any plans for Saturday, and staying home all day isn’t much fun either. A little outing sounds nice," Joseph said with a nod. "Great! It’s settled, then!" Alice declared happily, clapping her hands as if sealing the deal. "I’m almost done eating. Let me know when you’re ready, and I’ll go pack my things. We can head to school after that," Alice said as she finished her breakfast and stood up. "Oh, and don’t worry about picking me up after class. I’ll find my own way back," she added before heading to her room. "Alright. I’ll have lunch ready when you get home," Joseph replied. "Thank you, Joseph! It’s so nice having you around. I get to eat delicious food every day!" Alice said with a giggle before retreating to her room, her face glowing with happiness. Joseph quickly finished his own breakfast, tid

The proximity, combined with the intoxicating fragrance of her body, overwhelmed Joseph’s senses. He felt his blood surge, his pulse quickening as an uncontrollable heat spread through him. It wasn’t just Alice’s teasing words—it was the subtle, almost imperceptible mix of her voice, her scent, and the warmth of her body pressed against his. It ignited something deep within him, a fire he struggled desperately to contain."What smell? I have no idea what you’re talking about!" Joseph’s face flushed a deep red as he stammered, utterly flustered. He struggled to suppress the surge of desire coursing through him, but it was a losing battle. "Ugh, obviously I mean body fragrance! Every woman has her own unique scent. Don’t tell me you can’t smell it," Alice teased, blinking her bright eyes at him mischievously, clearly intent on prolonging his discomfort. "It’s… fine, I guess," Joseph exhaled slowly, trying his best to sound composed. "Fine? Do you like it, though?" Alice leaned in c

"The two bells are only part of the reason I married your sister. There are other factors as well," Joseph began, his voice calm yet deliberate. "My master and your grandfather struck additional deals, agreements that go beyond what I’ve told you. But the most important reason lies in my past. That, above all, is what led to this marriage." "And what exactly is that reason?" Heidi asked, her curiosity piqued. "I… forgot," Joseph said with a wry smile. "You forgot? How could you forget the most important reason? Brother-in-law, your selective memory is incredible. You remember everything unimportant and forget the key things," Heidi teased, shaking her head in exasperation. "I can’t explain it either," Joseph replied, his tone tinged with helplessness. "My master has abilities that defy normal understanding. The fact that I’ve forgotten certain things—it’s all part of his plan." "Why would he do that? Making you forget so much… it’s just too strange," Heidi said, her frustration

"Although I’ve never paid much attention to the Cooper family’s affairs, it’s clear to me that your sister doesn’t have absolute control over the family. She’s still too young, lacking in both the means and the authority to truly dominate the Cooper family. Despite all she’s done for the family over the years, she still relies heavily on your grandmother’s prestige to maintain her position." "Am I wrong about any of this?" Joseph asked slowly. "Brother-in-law, for someone who seems indifferent to everything, you know the Cooper family far too well," Heidi said with a sigh. "You’re absolutely right, especially now. Morgan Group has withdrawn from many of our projects recently, and the Cooper family’s profits have been plummeting." "Those in the family who have been waiting for an opportunity won’t let my sister off the hook so easily. She’s practically a clay idol barely crossing the river herself." Heidi’s tone carried a hint of helplessness. "That’s why I don’t recommend involv
