“No matter what happens, we’ll stay by your side.”“Come on, have a meat bun.”Mason Alvarez spoke calmly as she picked up a meat bun and placed it into Joseph’s bowl. Joseph lowered his head and began to eat as well.Over the next two or three days, Joseph either stayed at home with Alice and Mason Alvarez, or went out with them to wander around.They rarely traveled far—everything stayed within the boundaries of Nova City. Aside from visiting scenic spots, most of their time was spent shopping together or dining out.In truth, because of the matter of the “dream,” both Alice and Mason Alvarez had been deliberately giving Joseph extra attention these past few days.The two of them seemed to be intentionally trying to cheer him up, which left Joseph deeply moved.To have wives like this—what more could a man ask for? And he had two.As for Peggy’s condition, Joseph called Dr. Forrest almost every day to ask about her progress, and even video-called Peggy to check on her himself.Overa

“We can talk to her over breakfast later. After all, you’re right.”Joseph pondered for a moment before speaking.“Then I’ll go prepare something for you to eat. You should take a bath and relax a bit.”Seeing that Joseph didn’t seem to be in the best spirits, Alice said gently, with thoughtful concern.“I’m fine. My mental state isn’t affected.”“It’s just that I dreamed and sweated a lot.”“But I’m very clear about this—it’s not a physical issue.”“Generally speaking, people with a weak constitution tend to have nightmares and cold sweats, but what I had wasn’t a cold sweat.”Joseph shook his head.“As long as you’re fine, that’s all that matters. There’s no need to dwell on it—everything will fall into place naturally.”“Alright, let’s get up. After breakfast, we can go out for a walk.”Alice leaned in and kissed Joseph.After lingering for a while, the two finally got out of bed.Since he had sweated quite a bit, Joseph still went to the bathroom for a quick shower.After finishin

“What I mean is, you’re already so sleepy—why didn’t you just go to bed? Why did you still come over?”Joseph sat down on the edge of the bed and explained.“I missed you. I want to sleep with you tonight.”Alice leaned in and said affectionately.Hearing this, Joseph reached out and turned off the light. In one smooth motion, he pressed Alice gently onto the bed and pulled the blanket over them.Breathing in the alluring fragrance of her body, Joseph found it hard to restrain himself. He instinctively lowered his head and kissed her soft, rosy lips. The exquisite sensation at his mouth nearly made him lose all reason.“Mmm?”“Joseph… what’s gotten into you tonight? Why are you in such a hurry?”Alice asked in confusion. Normally, Joseph was the composed one, while she was more proactive. Tonight, however, he seemed unusually impatient.“Because I feel like I’ve been too busy lately, and I haven’t spent enough time with you.”Joseph thought for a moment before answering.“You silly Jo

“I just finished up. What’s going on?”Joseph replied.No sooner had he finished speaking than Mason Alvarez pushed the door open and slipped inside, looking rather furtive.“Professor Alvarez, what’s going on? Is something the matter?”Joseph asked, amused by her behavior.“Nothing serious. Did you get the meeting notice? The one for Wednesday.”Mason Alvarez took out her phone, opened her email, and showed it to Joseph.“I haven’t checked my inbox yet, but President Harris already called me. I’ll be attending the Wednesday meeting as well.”Joseph glanced at her screen and answered.“Of course you will. You’re the main event. The fact that the president personally called you means you’re crucial to this meeting.”Mason Alvarez said as if it were obvious.“That’s more or less how I see it too.”“The selection meeting for the management of Nova University’s Sixth Affiliated Hospital—President Harris has brought up the dean and vice-dean positions with me more than once.”Joseph smiled

“Here’s the situation. The total cost of the surgery came to two hundred and thirty thousand dollars, but Professor Martin transferred one million dollars. After deducting the surgical expenses, there’s still over seven hundred thousand left.”“After some discussion, we decided to transfer that remaining amount to your account, Professor Wilson.”“After all, the success of this surgery is largely due to you. Please don’t refuse.”Dr. Forrest explained the entire matter in detail.“Did Professor Martin say how the excess money should be handled?”Joseph asked.“No. He simply transferred one million dollars. That’s all.”Dr. Forrest replied candidly.“If Professor Martin transferred one million to you, then technically, that money belongs to the hospital.”Joseph said plainly.“But you were the lead surgeon for this operation.”“And our hospital cannot accept excess fees. So in the end, this money can only be handled by you.”Dr. Forrest looked genuinely troubled.“I see…”Hearing this,

“How about I make her steamed lobster—her absolute favorite?”Joseph thought for a moment and said.“A dinner made with love, huh?”“Either way is fine. You’ve grown up together—you know her better than anyone.”Mason Alvarez blinked her beautiful eyes and replied.“Then it’s settled.”Joseph nodded.After that, Joseph and Mason Alvarez first went to buy the lipstick Alice loved most. On the way home, Joseph stopped by a seafood market and carefully selected an especially large lobster.Once everything was prepared, the two of them finally headed home.By the time they arrived, it was already around four in the afternoon.At that moment, Alice was sprawled in the living room, binge-watching a drama while munching noisily on snacks.“Joseph, you’re back!”Seeing him, Alice immediately put down her tablet and hurried over to him.“What did you buy?”She stared at the bags in his hands with childlike curiosity, rummaging through them like an overly inquisitive kid.“They’re ingredients.
