Chapter 368

Belinda handed Joseph a copy of the Zahn family’s proposed “donation plan”. The designated recipient was the Jenton Charitable Foundation.

Under the proposal, the Towne family was expected to donate 20 billion dollars, which was practically everything they owned. If they paid, they would be left with nothing.

What frustrated Belinda was that almost half of the older generation in the Towne family actually supported it If her health hadn’t been so weakened at that moment, she would have been tempted to kill those old men herself.

She looked at Joseph seriously. “Joseph, what do you think I should do?”

Joseph finished reading the proposal and saw that it was basically just legal robbery. As he searched for information about the Jenton Charitable Foundation, he asked, “What do you think?”

Belinda said, “I definitely can’t side with the Zahns. I think they’re finished this time. They’re going to lose everything and disappear from Jenton. If I keep following them, I’ll just go down with them.

“I should cooperate with the outsiders. But I’m worried that they’re going to discard me once they’re done using me. Then I’ll end up doing all that work for nothing.”

Joseph smiled faintly. “You already see the situation clearly, so haven’t you already figured out the answer?”

He picked up his phone and called Peyton. After asking her to come over, he introduced Belinda to her.

Meanwhile, Joseph went to examine and continue treating Marie. No matter what else was happening, he never forgot that he was a doctor first.

Marie also handed Joseph another copy of the Zahn family’s so-called longevity manual. She claimed that she had no use for it and that professional matters should be left to those who understood them.

As Joseph flipped through the pages, he was surprised that it wasn’t identical to the copy given to the Croma faction. Hidden among the pages was a thin booklet.

The contents seemed to contain material stolen from the Gould family, focusing primarily on acupuncture and theories surrounding the preservation of life.

The Gould family’s ancestor had clearly been an extraordinary physician. His research had already brushed against the principles of slowing aging, but unfortunately, the scientific conditions of his era had been too limited.

He’d never discovered that blood transfusion was the most direct and efficient path. Or perhaps, he simply hadn’t dared to attempt it; after all, modern blood transfusion theory didn’t exist back then.

Owen truly was a cunning old fox. Even when he was forced to surrender the longevity method, the man still couldn’t resist planting hidden traps. He would do anything to sow discord.

The alliance among the outsiders had always been temporary. They were only united by shared interests, and once those interests were divided unevenly, infighting would inevitably begin.

After Marie fell asleep during the acupuncture treatment, Joseph turned to Yelena. “I heard the Zahn family has started demanding donations from Jenton’s major families. What’s going on?”

Yelena looked surprised. “Donations? We’ve never demanded any money. What we wanted was the longevity method and for the Zahn family to stop monopolizing Jenton. We simply wanted to start investing and doing business here.”

She even handed Joseph a proposal that outlined her family’s plans to enter Jenton, including an investment in the construction of a dock.

Joseph quietly read through the document without making a comment.
