"It's me—Mason Morgan! Mason Morgan! Do you get it now?" A slightly exasperated voice came through the phone. "Then say it clearly next time. My hearing isn't great—I can’t always distinguish voices over the phone." Joseph responded deliberately. "You’re not hard of hearing—you’re just doing this on purpose." Mason Morgan snapped. "Uncle Mason, how could you say that about me?" "Anyway, did you call because you've finally come around?" Joseph asked directly. "Is there anyone with you right now? Is Alice nearby?" Mason Morgan’s tone was cautious. "No, I'm alone. Just say whatever it is you need to say." Joseph replied. "This isn't something that can be explained over the phone. Why don't you come out now so we can talk in person?" Mason Morgan hesitated, sounding somewhat troubled. "Not happening. I haven’t even had lunch yet." Joseph rejected the proposal outright, his tone full of reluctance. "Lunch? Forget that! You think I’d let you go hungry? Just name a place—pic

"Thank you, Alice. In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony," Mason Alvarez said with a smile. Joseph had yet to pick up his chopsticks, but she had already started eating, fully embodying the meaning of being unreserved.Joseph took a bite as well, nodding slightly in approval, offering Alice generous praise for her cooking. There was no denying it—her culinary skills had improved remarkably. "Oh, by the way, your dad called me earlier. He wants to see me after lunch," Joseph mentioned casually as he ate. "My dad? What does he want with you?" Alice asked, surprised. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Does this mean you two have already met the parents? When’s the wedding? And when can I expect to hold your baby?" Mason Alvarez teased, a playful smirk on her face. Though she joked, there was a hint of envy in her heart—perhaps even a trace of melancholy. Alice was only eighteen, yet she had already introduced her boyfriend to her father. And what about herself? Why was it that she could never seem

"So, how do you think my conversation with him went?" Felix Baker smiled, throwing the question back at Mason Alvarez."Looks like it went pretty well—you've got a smile on your face," Mason replied casually.Felix chuckled. "It was quite enjoyable, actually. You’ve heard about all the mess Charles Martin has gotten himself into, right? Well, Director Myers' opinion of him has definitely taken a nosedive." He lowered his voice slightly—after all, discussing other professors in public wasn’t exactly appropriate.Mason’s eyes lit up. "So that means I don’t have to go on that blind date with Charles Martin anymore?" "Of course not! What’s so great about him anyway? He’s just a fool. Professor Wilson is leagues ahead of him." Felix spoke with sincerity."That’s a relief! Thanks, Professor. This whole thing had been stressing me out." Mason sighed in genuine gratitude.Felix waved it off. "No need to thank me; it was nothing. Anyway, I’m off to grab some food—you go ahead with whatever

"Oh, stop it! Don’t ask me that—you’re so shameless!" Alice covered her face, utterly embarrassed. Every time Mason Alvarez probed her with these kinds of questions, her cheeks would burn as if set ablaze. "Oh, please! You’ve been living together for so long—who would believe that nothing has happened between you two?" Mason teased with a mischievous grin. "It’s true! Joseph said he wants to wait for the right moment," Alice murmured, her voice growing softer as she buried her face deeper into her hands. "Tsk tsk, waiting for a special moment? Who would’ve thought Wilson was such a traditional man? He really doesn’t seem the type," Mason mused, clearly surprised. "Honestly, I think it’s kind of sweet," Alice said in a hushed tone. Mason draped an arm around Alice’s shoulders, her voice laced with playful mischief. "Listen, little one, a man only truly belongs to you once he’s in your grasp—understand?" Alice blinked in confusion. "What do you mean by that, Mason?" "It’s simpl
The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 1: The Unfaithful Wife
Today was Fiona Cooper's birthday.Reflecting on the countless humiliations he had endured over the past three years, Joseph Wilson had little affection for his wife, Fiona Cooper. However, as husband and wife of three years, it was her birthday today, so Joseph Wilson still bought a bouquet of flowers, intending to pick her up from work at the entrance of Cooper Group.It was laughable that, as a live-in son-in-law for three years, his wife in name had never looked him in the eye. They had always slept in separate rooms, and he had never even touched Fiona Cooper's hand.Fiona Cooper never allowed Joseph Wilson to appear at the company, so every time Joseph Wilson came to pick her up from work, he would stand far away and wait for her to come out. This time was no exception.However, what Joseph Wilson did not expect was to see his wife walking out of the Cooper Group building, arm in arm with a man."Charles, why are you back so suddenly?""I finished my business abroad and missed y
The Rise of the Son-in-law After Divorce Chapter 2: Divorce
Joseph drove towards Cooper Group.The Cooper Group belonged to the Cooper family, the biggest family in Nova City. Three years ago, it wasn't, but in these three years, the Cooper family had developed very rapidly, leaping to become Nova City's top family.After about half an hour, Joseph Wilson finally arrived near the Cooper Building. He parked the car in front of a secluded alley and called Fiona Cooper."Fiona, I'm here, at the usual place."Joseph Wilson said after the call connected."I know. How many times do I have to say it? Don't call me Fiona. Call me Fiona Cooper." Fiona Cooper's disgusted voice came from the other end."Okay, Fiona Cooper. I'm here, waiting for you at the usual place."Joseph Wilson repeated his words.The other end immediately hung up. Joseph was used to this. Moreover, he had already made up his mind. It was time to leave.About ten minutes later, Joseph saw a tall, beautiful, fair-skinned woman walk out of the Cooper Group building. The woman was nat

Thereafter, the three chatted idly. Joseph was full of questions, but he didn't get much useful information from Alice Morgan and Blake Morgan.After about half an hour, Blake Morgan's car drove into a luxurious villa neighborhood and stopped in front of a detached villa."Mr. Wilson, please," Blake Morgan got out of the car and personally opened the door for Joseph.The three entered the villa's hall. The interior decor of the villa could be said to be quite extravagant. At first glance, even Joseph was shocked.It was clear from this that Blake Morgan's identity was quite extraordinary. However, Joseph couldn't remember his master having a friend named Blake Morgan at all."Mr. Wilson, now that you have left the Cooper family, following your master's instructions, I will provide you with whatever assistance I can. Is there anything you need help with?" Blake Morgan poured Joseph a glass of water and asked meaningfully."I need a job and a place to live, that's all. Of course, if pos

After leaving the villa, Joseph was pulled by Alice to the underground parking garage.The garage housed dozens of cars, the least of which were luxury vehicles like Maseratis, demonstrating immense wealth."Mr. Joseph, you seem quite unhappy. Experiencing marital changes in middle age is indeed difficult to accept. But someone as outstanding as you will surely meet a better woman in the future." Alice held Joseph's arm, her breasts intentionally or unintentionally brushing against it, making Joseph feel out of place.He had never had such close contact even with his wife in name."Thank you. I'm fine," Joseph said with a wry smile."Joseph, I have a question I want to ask you." Alice released Joseph's arm, her demeanor and tone somewhat restrained."Hmm? What question?" Joseph instinctively asked."Do... do you think I'm pretty?" Alice bit her lip, mustering her courage to speak. As she uttered these words, her face flushed crimson, and she tightly grasped the hem of her clothes, her

"You… You—!" Joseph’s words had left Lincoln Myers fuming. Not only was he livid, but more importantly, he had no retort—because, well, Joseph wasn’t wrong. He was both bald and overweight. "Alright, don’t get too worked up—anger isn’t good for your health. It’s bad to lose your temper so often." Joseph spoke with the air of someone offering sincere advice. Then, without waiting for a response, he turned and strolled away. "You brat, just you wait! You won’t get away with this!" Lincoln Myers shouted after him, but all he could do was glare at Joseph’s retreating figure before stomping off in frustration. Inside the office, Geoffrey Harris had overheard their argument. He could only shake his head helplessly. The relationship between the Traditional Medicine Department and the Modern Medical College had always been tense. Ever since Joseph’s arrival, things had escalated further. And now, Joseph had directly clashed with Lincoln Myers. In the Medical College, most professors

"This kid—why should he be part of the investigation team? He himself might have issues! How can he possibly be an investigator?" Lincoln Myers shot a pointed look at Joseph, his voice filled with skepticism. Joseph, however, merely chuckled. "Director Myers, I originally had no interest in getting involved in this matter, but now that you've questioned me like this, I find myself quite intrigued." His tone was deliberately teasing. Hearing Joseph’s infuriating response, Lincoln Myers’s temper flared instantly. Seeing the smug grin on Joseph’s face only made him want to throw a punch at him. "You little brat, you just love going against me, don’t you?" He fumed. "You were the one who started going against me first," Joseph replied with a smirk. "Alright, enough. Stop arguing." "Director Myers, listen to me." Geoffrey Harris waved a hand, cutting off their bickering. "Professor Wilson is not only a direct witness to this medical incident, but he was also Old Mr. Cooper’s at

"Since the inquiry has been issued, we must conduct an investigation. After gathering our findings, we’ll need to submit a formal report to the higher authorities." "This investigation won’t just focus on Charles Martin’s actions last Saturday—it will also cover his professional history, educational background, academic achievements, and more. Everything must be thoroughly reviewed." "Therefore, we need to establish an investigation committee." Geoffrey Harris stated decisively. "An investigation committee… Don’t tell me I’m going to be on it?" Joseph raised an eyebrow, finding the situation rather amusing. Him investigating Charles Martin? Now, that was something he never saw coming. "Professor Wilson, you managed to wake Old Mr. Cooper. You’re more than qualified to be on this committee." "You were directly involved in the incident, and besides, isn’t the Modern Medical College currently investigating you as well?" Leonard Sanchez was quick to express his support for Joseph

"Professor Wilson, you’re here! Come, come, have a seat—no rush, take your time. Here, have some tea first." Geoffrey Harris greeted Joseph warmly the moment he saw him. "This is from an excellent coffeehouse—give it a try," he added, pouring Joseph a cup of coffee. Joseph took a sip and nodded appreciatively. "It’s quite good." "I just called Professor Sanchez over. Once he arrives, we’ll get down to business," Geoffrey Harris continued. "Sounds good. I’ll wait," Joseph said, setting his coffee down with a slight smile. "Professor Wilson, how’s your teaching going lately? How does it feel to be a professor?" Geoffrey Harris started making small talk. "It’s been going well. The students are enthusiastic, and the work is smooth—though I’d say that’s mostly thanks to their cooperation," Joseph replied modestly. "Ah, Professor Wilson, I have to disagree with you there! It’s not just about the students cooperating—it’s about your exceptional expertise." "I’ve not only heard abou

"Huh? Yes, that’s definitely the ladies’ room… What on earth is Professor Charles Martin doing in there?" The female student frowned, puzzled. "I'll go take a look," Joseph said without hesitation. "Wait, Professor Wilson! That’s the ladies’ restroom!" The female student called out, trying to stop him. "I just want to check on Professor Martin. He’s young and inexperienced—I’m worried he might have lost his way." "If he’s engaged in any inappropriate behavior, I’ll put a stop to it immediately." With that, Joseph strode toward the restroom. The female student stood frozen, stunned by his words. "Professor Wilson is such a man of integrity! He’s actually worried about Professor Martin going down the wrong path!" "Intervening to prevent crime, standing up for justice—he's a true role model for us all!" "Professor Wilson is the embodiment of positive energy!" The surrounding students, both male and female, were full of admiration. Of course, Joseph, already walking toward th
