“Old Master!”“Grandfather!”Joseph and Fiona called out as they stepped into the hall.“Joseph, you’re here. Right on time, as always.”Old Mr. Cooper said with a genial smile.“Grandfather, I’ll go make some tea.”Fiona offered.“Go on, go on. Use the best leaves.”Old Mr. Cooper instructed.“Alright.”Fiona responded and went off to prepare it.“Joseph, Fiona has told me about your ideas in business.”Old Mr. Cooper patted Joseph’s hand, his tone earnest and measured.“I originally meant to come to you first, but after giving it some thought, I decided to speak with her directly.”“After all, she’s the one managing the Cooper family’s businesses now.”Joseph replied with a smile.“Talking to her is perfectly fine. You young people communicate more easily.”“I’m an old relic, and now I can only stay at home, unable to do much of anything.”Old Mr. Cooper said.“But the overall direction and strategy of the Cooper family are still in your hands.”Joseph said with a light smile.“That

“It’s not a hundred pounds. It’s barely over ninety, okay?”Lillian Morvek protested at once.“Then could you at least behave with a little restraint? You’re not a child anymore.”Heidi replied.“What’s there to be afraid of? There’s no one here but people I know.”Lillian Morvek glanced around at the familiar faces.“Hahaha, she’s right. Just treat this place like your own home.”Old Miss Cooper said with a warm, amused smile.“Ma’am, how have you been lately? Your health still good?”Nicole Hayes walked over and asked.“Good, very good. No aches, no illnesses.”Old Miss Cooper replied, still smiling broadly.“Ma’am, this is far too much trouble. You even came out to greet us yourself—must be exhausting.”Jaden Morvek added.“Not at all, not at all. Walking around does me good. I wanted to come out and welcome you.”The old lady remained gentle and cheerful.“Auntie, Uncle, please go inside first. The servants will take care of the luggage.”“When it’s time, I’ll have Heidi take you

“It’s about the classes starting up.”Lincoln Myers spoke with a slightly ingratiating smile in his voice.“Oh, that. I remember. Don’t worry.”“What I promised still stands. As long as you coordinate properly, I’ll follow the school’s arrangements.”Only then did Joseph realize what he meant.“Aren’t we about to talk to old Sanchez anyway? I was worried you might have forgotten.”“If the principal steps in, this will basically be a done deal.”Lincoln Myers added.“That’s good. As long as you’ve discussed it and agreed, it’s fine.”Joseph replied.The two exchanged a few more casual remarks before hanging up.“You’ve been getting pretty close to Director Myers lately.”Mason Alvarez said offhandedly.“That’s because he’s my patient now.”Joseph smiled faintly.“Looks like you’ve completely won Director Myers over.”Mason Alvarez covered her mouth and laughed softly.“Hardly won him over. Just colleagues helping each other out.”Joseph chuckled.After finishing the call with Lincoln M

“No need. I’m feeling much better now. I’m a doctor myself—I know my own condition,” Joseph said with a smile.“Alright then. I’ll check the injury on your hand later,” Fiona said considerately. “For now, go wash up and eat something to settle your stomach.”“Okay,” Joseph replied, nodding.“I’ll go heat up some food for you, Joseph,” Alice said, and trotted eagerly into the kitchen.Ever since Joseph injured his hand, Alice had taken over most of the household chores.At her insistence, Mason Alvarez had become her assistant, helping out wherever needed.Watching the two of them busy themselves on his behalf, Joseph felt a twinge of guilt. Perhaps because he had always been the one taking care of others, being cared for in return felt oddly unfamiliar.Unfamiliar as it was, he was still deeply moved.After he had eaten a little, Mason Alvarez began examining his wound.The injury on Joseph’s hand was extensive, so she proceeded with great caution. With wounds of that size, ne

“That’s the general situation. What do you all think? Do you believe this project is viable?” Fiona swept her gaze across the room, asking with deliberate emphasis.“Of course it is. This is a guaranteed win—a rare opportunity for the Cooper family.”“Exactly. If even a project like this can’t be done, then there’s no project worth doing at all.”“I suggest we move immediately to avoid unnecessary delays. A drug like this should reach the market as early as possible—the sooner, the better.”“...”The opinions were almost unanimous, and everyone spoke with visible excitement. It was clear that they all had great confidence in the project.“Since there are no further objections, I’ll begin assigning tasks,” Fiona said with a faint smile. “When it comes to making money, we need to be both steady and fast—secure, yet swift.”“I have no objections.”“I’ll follow Miss Cooper’s arrangements.”“Same here!”“So will I!”“...”Everyone voiced their agreement.After that, Fiona began assigni

“Miss Cooper, you’re not joking, are you? Ever since the Morgan Group terminated most of its projects with us, we haven’t been able to find any suitable partners.”“Our business model has always been extremely narrow. Finding a partner on the level of the Morgan Group is incredibly difficult. And even if we do find one, they’re usually unwilling to work with us.”“Exactly. Without partners, how are we supposed to expand the business or launch new projects?”“...”The room filled with overlapping voices.“This time, I intend for us to do it ourselves and expand into new lines of business,” Fiona said.“In the past, our operations were limited to secondary processing of materials and the production of raw materials.”“But starting today, I want to lead everyone into something different. I plan to leverage our existing raw-material supply chain and develop our own pharmaceutical manufacturing, promotion, and sales operations.”“Miss Cooper, it’s still the same old problem,” someone said.
