The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 151
"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 Morgan Group has withdrawn from many of our projects recently, and the Cooper family’s profits have been plummeting."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

"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

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

"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

"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

"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

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? Look at the m

“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.<

"Don’t worry, Charles. You know how close I am with your mother. If you truly like my daughter, I’ll help you. But I need you to cooperate too. You understand what I mean, don’t you?" Maria’s voice lowered meaningfully."I understand, I completely understand." A glint of satisfaction flickered in Charles Martin’s eyes as he listened to Maria Long’s words.As long as Fiona and Heidi moved into his villa, even if he couldn’t win their hearts, he was determined to possess their bodies."As long as you understand our intentions, that’s all that matters." "Alright then, we won’t keep you any longer. Let’s leave it at that for now." With the matter settled, Maria Long ended the call, her tone filled with smug contentment.After hanging up, Charles Martin’s expression darkened with a sinister edge. "Joseph, you’ve been married for three years and haven’t even touched Fiona’s hand. When I finally have her, I'll make sure to flaunt it in your face.""And Heidi—that wretched woman who’s ne

"This is a matter between teachers—it has nothing to do with you students!" Charles Martin tried to explain, his voice tense."If it has nothing to do with us, then why did you make it public?" "Exactly! Couldn’t agree more." "A teacher who doesn’t keep his word isn’t welcome at Nova University." "Yeah, own up to your bet!" "..."The voices on the other end grew louder and more chaotic."I’m done talking. I’m hanging up—I have class to get to." Charles Martin ended the call abruptly. There was no point in dragging it out any longer; he knew he wouldn’t win against this mob.He was tempted to just switch off his phone and be done with it.But school policy required teachers to keep their phones on and available during work hours, in case of emergencies or administrative contact.Charles leaned back in his chair, exhausted in both body and mind. He still had no idea who had leaked his personal information to the school forum.Buzz! Buzz!And again, the phone vibrated.Already on e

"Professor Alvarez, you misunderstood. I just didn’t control my volume," Joseph said awkwardly, trying to explain himself."Then why do you always seem so dismissive of me? Why are you constantly arguing with me? Do you have some sort of bias against me?" Mason Alvarez pressed on, clearly aggrieved."You’ve really got it wrong. Honestly, I think you’re a great person—easygoing and down-to-earth. Being around you, I don’t feel the need to put on airs." Joseph replied earnestly."Is that really how you feel?" Mason’s voice softened, her gaze growing gentler."Of course it is. Why would I lie about something like that? I wouldn’t have agreed to help you dodge that blind date otherwise, would I? And besides, you’re close with Alice. Any friend of hers is a friend of mine." Joseph spoke without hesitation."Then, Professor Wilson... why don’t we date?" Mason’s eyes sparkled mischievously as she made the unexpected suggestion.Joseph froze, completely taken aback."Hey, what’s with th

While Mason Alvarez was drowning in embarrassment, Joseph sat at his desk, utterly unfazed, leisurely flipping through documents and browsing references on his computer, as though the chaos around him had nothing to do with him.The sight of his calm demeanor only fueled Mason's frustration.Why was she the one being grilled by Brady Rogers and Felix Baker, while this infuriating man got to sit there, completely untouched by the storm?Fueled by indignation, she abruptly lifted her foot and stomped hard on Joseph’s.“Ouch!”Joseph yelped in pain, turning to her in disbelief.“Professor Alvarez, what the hell?! Why’d you step on my foot?”“Oh, sorry. Totally an accident.”Mason shot him a glare that said otherwise. Joseph was left speechless.“Professor Alvarez, you still haven’t answered Professor Baker’s question.”Brady Rogers reminded her, ever so helpfully.Mason nearly choked. Brady, who usually came off as the quiet one, was now joining the teasing squad? The world had truly gon

The moment Joseph opened the school forum, his screen was flooded with posts about him. Nearly every trending thread pinned at the top was somehow related to him.“Youngest professor cracks a complex medical case!” “Professor Martin’s bet with Professor Wilson—will he really bow and apologize?” “Anyone got Professor Martin’s number? I want to give him a piece of my mind.” “If Professor Martin doesn’t keep his word, no one will take his class ever again.” …Every corner of the forum was plastered with threads, all revolving around Joseph and Charles Martin.He casually tapped into the post asking for Martin’s phone number. A quick glance confirmed his expectations—users had already dug up more than just his number. His home address was exposed too.The replies were brutal.“Looks like Professor Martin’s getting digitally lynched.”Joseph muttered under his breath. Martin probably never imagined his private life would be stripped bare and paraded so shamelessly on the school forum.

"Seven times a week should be fine. Any more than that, and it might be pushing it. Just pace yourself." Joseph said casually. "Seven times a week? That much? Even at my peak, I couldn’t manage that!" Mason Morgan was utterly stunned. Joseph cast him a knowing glance. "Sounds like Uncle Mason wasn’t all that strong to begin with." "You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting now?!" Mason instantly bristled. "Just hurry up and finish writing that prescription. Less talking, more working!" Joseph smirked but didn’t argue. He simply continued writing with quiet focus. One check’s backside wasn’t enough—he had to use a second one to finish. After about twenty minutes, he finally put down his pen. "This one is the prescription, and the other contains the medical instructions. Follow them precisely, and you’ll be fine." Joseph handed both checks to Mason Morgan. Mason scanned them, recognizing a few of the ingredients but not fully understanding their effects. After all, he

"Well, what do you think?" "If that old doctor were more skilled than me, you wouldn’t be sitting here talking to me right now. His prescription clearly didn’t meet your expectations." "That’s why you came to me—hoping I could offer a better solution." Joseph’s words were sharp and precise. Mason Morgan sighed. "That’s true." "But if even that old doctor couldn’t fully resolve my issue, are you sure you can? He seemed pretty capable." His brows furrowed in concern—after all, this was a matter that would affect the rest of his life. He couldn’t afford to take it lightly. "The old doctor does have some skill," Joseph admitted calmly, "but not much." Mason scoffed. "You sure don’t lack confidence, kid." "But talk is cheap. I still don’t know how skilled you really are. You say all the right things, but when it comes down to actual treatment, can you really deliver?" Joseph smirked. "I don’t even need to see it to know what prescription he gave you." "Got a pen and paper? Hand

Joseph took a slow sip of his lemon water, placing the glass back on the table with a composed smile. His unhurried demeanor only served to irritate Mason Morgan. "Kid, you’ve got nothing, huh? I knew you were just full of hot air!" "But I get it. You’re trained in traditional medicine—you don’t understand modern medical practices, so you have no clue how Western medicine would treat my condition." Mason assumed Joseph’s calmness was just a stalling tactic. "Uncle Mason, I’m well-versed in traditional Chinese medicine, but I also have a solid grasp of modern medicine." "To put it plainly, I’ve mastered both worlds, East and West, past and present. In the field of andrology, my mentor was known as the ‘Saint of Men’s Health.’" "I inherited all his teachings, but I didn’t just stop there—I refined and innovated upon them. As a result, I earned the title ‘Little Saint of Men’s Health.’" "And let’s be clear—the ‘Little’ in my title isn’t because I’m inferior to my master. It’s sim

Under Mason Alvarez’s relentless teasing, Alice could do nothing but yelp and struggle. "You’re awful! You’re the worst! Let me go—I surrender! I won’t say anything about you again, I swear! Please, have mercy!" She begged for a while before Mason Alvarez finally relented. By then, Alice was thoroughly disheveled, her breathing uneven as she lay sprawled out on the bed, utterly spent. "Now do you understand the power of your senior?" Mason grinned triumphantly. "You’re nothing but a shameless rogue!" Alice huffed. "Oh? Care to repeat that?" Mason’s eyes narrowed in mock threat. Alice immediately turned her head away, pouting but clearly backing down. "Still, Wilson sure is one lucky man," Mason mused as she gave Alice a once-over. "You look so petite, but who would’ve thought you had such a killer figure?" Alice shot her a glare. "You’re not exactly lacking yourself! You think you were the only one taking advantage just now? I got my fair share too!" Mason chuckled. "Oh? Is
