A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 477

Chapter 477

“No matter what, I still hope you’ll treat Yara. If you can heal Wesley, then you can definitely heal Yara. Name your price,” Jenna

said.

She couldn’t empathize with Joseph, nor could she force him to help. The current Joseph was disguised, and if the medical skills he displayed were too great, people would start grow suspicious.

Joseph said, “You don’t have to. Your medical sect will make a move. Of course, I don’t think they’ll succeed either. Whatever the outcome, just do your best. No one will suspect anything.”

Joseph took out a cigarette, sniffed it, then put it back. “This is the perfect opportunity for you to file an application to use that miraculous pill of yours. I really want to see what it can do.”

“Your curiosity will be satisfied eventually.” Just as Jenna finished speaking, her phone rang. Another elder of the Zahn family was in a critical condition and was being rushed to the hospital.”

She turned to Joseph and said, “Those people from the Towne family of Westoria used a slow-acting poison. More and more people from Emerald Mountain are beginning to show symptoms. Can you put aside your prejudice for now and help me get through this crisis?”

Joseph replied, “We can discuss the antidote together, but I won’t personally treat them. The members of the Zahn family are too precious for me to lay my hands on. Besides, I hate anyone who’s connected to Skylar.”

Joseph did not attempt to hide his feelings. After taking revenge on Skylar, he still wanted to remain safe. Better yet, he’d like to bring down the entire Zahn family along with him.

Those lofty people deserved to experience what it was like to lose everything.

Likewise, he would make sure the Lowell family suffered the same fate.

Jenna went to prepare for the patients arriving from Emerald Mountain. Worried that Joseph might cause trouble at the hospital, she insisted he stay right where she could keep an eye on him.

“It’s Desmond and Yolanda Zahn. I need your help,” Jenna whispered again.

Joseph nodded. He didn’t mind helping with the diagnosis since he wanted to see what was so extraordinary about the Towne family’s poison. After all, he had some expertise in toxicology himself.

Besides, he and Jenna were partners. If he wanted to continue making use of her, he had to give her a little something in return.

After examining the patients, however, he deliberately withheld the optimal treatment plan. Instead, he offered a compromise that would preserve their lives for the time being. Later, he intended to investigate the poison’s source to see if it could be extracted from nature or synthesized chemically.

While Jenna and the elders of the Zahn medical sect discussed treatment options, Joseph quietly slipped away and entered Yara’s hospital room.

“Can we talk?” Joseph asked.

Yara dismissed everyone and said coolly, “What are you plotting?”

Joseph said, “There are some things Jenna isn’t comfortable telling you, but I think you deserve to know the truth about your condition. Would you like comforting lies or the truth? If you think what I say is worth hearing, then spare me a little cigarette

money.”

Yara took out a ten-thousand-dollar check. Just as Joseph reached for it, she held it firmly between “The truth. And you’d better not lie to me, or I’ll make you regret it.”

Joseph still took the check and said, “Your condition is very serious. It’s much worse than what Jenna and the others have told you. Even Jenna isn’t confident she can cure you. I also overheard a phone call from Emerald Mountain. They said that if they
