All Chapters of A Man with Nerves of Steel: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Joseph doubled back to the ICU Department office and made do with the cramped space for the night.But when he woke up before dawn and headed for the parking lot again, Ella intercepted him once more. Joseph said in exasperation, "You really are a bitch, aren't you?""Keep provoking me, and I might just beat you up! If Ms. Lowell hadn't specifically told me not to, I'd have dealt with you a long time ago!" Ella clenched her fists tightly, causing her knuckles to crack. She looked at Joseph arrogantly."So even dogs bite their owners these days. The world really has changed." Joseph hadn't expected a mere housekeeper to be so bold."One last warning. Insult me again, and I really will punch you!" Ella growled through gritted teeth, barely restraining herself.There was a glint in Joseph's eyes. He'd suddenly thought of a way to deal with Ella. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it himself. After returning to his office, he contacted Grace and asked her to send him someone.Grace agre

"Cora, what the hell are you implying?" Joseph asked, hanging up with a sneer.If he hadn't already learned that none of his daughters were actually his, Joseph might have believed Cora's story about working overtime. But now? He refused to believe a single word that came out of her mouth.And from the few hints she'd dropped during the call, Joseph could tell that Cora's lover was capable of handling the chaos caused by Jason's absence from the project. That alone spoke volumes about the man's abilities.Then there were Marla's remarks to Natalie. Everything pointed to the conclusion that her lover was a very capable man."Damn it! I'll get him one day. When I do, I'll make him wish he were dead." Grinding his teeth, Joseph forced down the overwhelming hatred boiling inside him. After lunch, he received a call from a nurse that Ella had regained consciousness, so he headed right over."Joseph, you ambushed me! You're despicable!" Ella immediately jumped out of bed and tried to at

"Dad, Natalie may not want you anymore, but I do! You'll always be my father." Selena carried a cup of hot chocolate into the study for Joseph while Cora was busy putting Kimberly to bed.Joseph smiled warmly. "Selena, I'm happy you feel that way. Natalie is all grown up now. She has the right to make her own choices. I don't blame her, and I support her decision. I'm an open-minded man. I respect each of your decisions."Selena crossed her arms. "Cora's not a good woman. We don't need her!"Joseph shook his head. "Now you're just going too far. At your age…"Selena protested, "Dad, you're about to start lecturing me again and treating me like a little kid, aren't you? I may be young, but I know more than you think. Whatever. I don't want to argue anymore. Rest early."Before Joseph could continue nagging, Selena turned around and left, heading upstairs to bed.A wave of bitterness welled up in his heart.Cora walked in and noticed that Joseph was just staring into space with an

At noon, in a quiet private room, Cora finally finished sizing Grace up just as the waiter left. Cora said, "If I told you that what happened that night had nothing to do with me, would you believe me?"Grace answered, "I would. I'll believe anything you tell me."Grace kept her emotions tightly under control. Her trip to Jenton had taught her something new. Back home, she always had Mavis and her family to protect her. Even when trouble came, it was always just a minor setback.Meanwhile, Jenton was different. It was a bloody jungle here, and just one misstep could prove to be catastrophic.She added, "If you want me to leave Jenton, then that's fine. Just divorce Joseph, and I'll leave with him."Cora frowned. "Joseph? You have your eyes on Joseph? He's my family. If you touch him, you'll be seriously crossing the line." Cora glared harshly at Grace. Whatever happened between them, family was supposed to be off-limits. If Grace intended to go after Joseph, then she was going

Neither of them was in the mood to keep arguing. The children were home, after all.Once the girls were asleep, Joseph and Cora returned to their bedroom. Joseph noticed Cora's phone screen lighting up repeatedly with incoming calls. She ignored every one of them.Joseph said with a faint smile, "Your man seems pretty eager to get a hold of you. If you want to keep him company, just go. Right, I forgot. If you want to work overtime, you should go."The sight only strengthened his conviction that Cora was having an affair.Cora snapped, "What nonsense are you talking about? You're my only man. There's no one else."Cora switched her phone off. Whatever Frank or the Patron wanted, it could wait until tomorrow.She then started to tease Joseph, stirring his desires. Right as they were at the peak of passion, she held Joseph tightly. "You keep saying I have a lover. Aren't you worried I might actually find one someday? What would you do if that happened?"Joseph replied, "Other than
