A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 439

Chapter 439

“Joseph, what else can you do?”

Jenna stared at him, unable to look away. The man standing in front of her felt like a complete stranger, and the realization chilled her to the bone.

Now it all made sense. She finally understood why the operatives she sent to tail him had lost his trail completely. With skills like this, all he needed was a few needles to melt into a crowd, utterly unrecognizable.

“If I were to ask you to take me inside the Zahn residence now, would you feel pressured?” Joseph shot back. In fact, he already had his answer from Jenna’s shocked expression earlier.

“Not at all. If you stood in front of Yara looking like that, she wouldn’t be able to recognize you even if she looked, at you closely.

“Oh, about that. I find it a little strange. Why do you keep targeting the Zahn family? Are you really certain one of those bastards had an affair with your wife?”

“The Zahns are the most likely. In all of Jenton, only a man from the Zahn family could make Cora yield.

“Even now, backed into a corner, she refuses to confess and continues to shield him. Tell me if it isn’t a Zahn, who else could possibly hold that kind of power over her?”

“She could’ve slept with the most powerful man in the family, but the opposite extreme is just as likely. The father could be someone completely bottom-tier-a street beggar, or some nameless transient. If it were someone like that, of course your wife would rather die than admit to cheating on you.”

“Do you honestly believe Cora would sink that low? Time and time again, she’s proven her ego is far too high for that. Jenna, don’t tell me you were the one who took Cora’s blood.”

“I studied legitimate medical practices. I’m not a supporter of those blood transfusion theories. Besides, strictly speaking, I’m not actually a Zahn.

“I’m just an orphan who took on their last name. Out of all the orphans they took in, I happen to have some talent for medicine. That’s why…

“Damn. We aren’t that close. Why should I even be telling you all this?”

Jenna found Joseph truly despicable for trying to trick her into revealing information. He had shown off his extraordinary medical skills, making her feel she couldn’t compare to him.

From there, Joseph would bring up the Zahns’ secrets and gain the upper hand in the conversation. What a terrifying man!

Joseph gave a chuckle. “The Zahns need a massive supply of blood, and the younger, the better.

“Using orphans would be their first choice. Besides, I already knew about this long ago. Even the authorities are looking into it.
