"Why is it that whenever Joseph drives, he never gets stuck in traffic? He always finds the fastest routes. He takes shortcuts and somehow manages to get me to my destination on time every single time. And yet here you are, a so-called driver, and you can’t even do your job properly!" Fiona fired back, her tone rising in exasperation as she unleashed a barrage of questions.

"Miss, there are indeed other routes to Nova University," the driver admitted awkwardly.

"Then why didn’t you take them?

    “Hahaha, excellent—truly excellent!”“There’s something familiar about the taste, though. A certain familiarity I can’t quite place.”Blake Morgan laughed heartily as he offered his assessment.“Familiar in what way?”old Mr. Cooper asked, puzzled.“It reminds me a bit of Joseph’s cooking. Not quite at his level, perhaps, but clearly from the same school.”Blake Morgan said meaningfully.At this remark, Heidi couldn’t help but glance at Joseph, her gaze carrying a hint of unspoken warmth.“Ahem… perhaps it’s because Heidi is used to eating my cooking. Over time, the dishes she makes have naturally come to resemble mine in flavor.”“I imagine it’s the same with Alice.”Joseph said, sounding slightly embarrassed.“Is that so? It seems living closely with someone does leave its mark.”Blake Morgan mused.“Well then, old Morgan, you must have had Joseph cook for you quite often.”“You’re a fortunate man—fine food, a glass of wine in hand.”“Unlike me—I’ve practically forgotten what wine e

    “Of course, the matters at hand are the most important.”“Everything else can wait, but what lies before us must be handled well.”“This isn’t just an opportunity for our own growth—our progress is equally vital to Joseph. It cannot be taken lightly.”old Mr. Cooper spoke with solemn emphasis.“I understand.”Fiona nodded gently.“That’s enough—there’s no need for me to say more.”“As for what comes next, I believe you already know what to do.”“You’re no longer a child. Many things require your own judgment now.”“Come, let’s head to the hall.”old Mr. Cooper added.“Alright.”Fiona responded, pushing his wheelchair toward the dining hall.By the time Joseph reached the entrance of the Cooper family’s old residence, Blake Morgan’s car happened to arrive as well.As Blake Morgan stepped out, he spotted Joseph immediately.“Joseph, did you just arrive too?”he asked.“I’ve been here for a while. I was concerned you might not be familiar with the place, so I waited to walk you in.”Jose

    “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

    “Quality must always be kept under control. That’s the foundation for maintaining profit.”Joseph reminded them once more.“I know. 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
