A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 481

Chapter 481

Joseph had a mask on, and his back was hunched slightly. Coupled with his dead-looking eyes, Peyton couldn’t recognize him even as he stood right in front of her.

She kept clamoring for Jenna to find Joseph to save her people, unaware that the man she was looking for was right before her

eyes.

Jenna acted exactly as Joseph had mentioned yesterday She focused all her attention on the VIP patients and members of the Zahn family. As for Peyton’s injured subordinates, she handed them over to the other attending physicians.

However, Joseph did not overstep his position. He was merely a minor attending physician and could only assist where appropriate.

Jenna refused to help Peyton look for Joseph and quickly entered the treatment ward, ignoring Peyton altogether.

Joseph soon noticed Cora arriving, and Peyton immediately went up to her.

Peyton demanded, “Have you found Joseph yet? Get him here to save them.”

Cora shook her head. “I haven’t. I’ve searched everywhere he could go, but I couldn’t find him. He’s turned off his phone and left everything behind. There’s nothing I can do.”

Unlike Peyton, whose anxiety was written all over her face, Cora remained calm and composed.

“Jenton isn’t that big. Where else could he have gone?” Peyton asked through gritted teeth.

Cora shrugged. “Who knows? He might have already left Jenton. Not long ago, he disappeared for some time and hid away in a monastery, completely ignoring his family and career. Don’t put too much hope on him. For now, just focus on saving them.”

She then asked, “Do you know who did it?”

Peyton shook her head. “No. Those people had unfamiliar faces. Judging by their accents, they weren’t from Jenton, nor were they Yelena’s men. Jenton has always had all sorts of people around. I was really careless this time.”

Peyton sighed. “It’s just that my father painstakingly trained these men, and now they’ve died under my watch.”

Cora replied that she was already doing everything she could to investigate and that they should have answers soon.

Joseph thought that the two of them were really similar. Neither of them was a good person.

Not long after Joseph left, he casually wandered into Yara’s room carrying a thermometer.

“Get out!” Yara exploded with anger the moment she saw him. She seemed convinced that his loose tongue had caused her condition to worsen and his prediction to come true. In her eyes, all the blame rested with him.

“Ms. Zahn, I understand how you feel. There’s no need to get angry. I’ll leave,” Joseph replied. However, he still went over and took her temperature with the automated thermometer.

“Come back here,” Yara called him back just as he was about to leave.

“Tell me the truth. If I really have to get amputated, how risky is the surgery?” she asked.

“There’s practically no risk. Just trust Jenna and the others. It’s not a particularly difficult procedure,” Joseph answered.

Yara frowned. “Is there really no risk at all?”

Joseph nodded. “Of course. I’m an honest doctor.”

Yara scoffed. “Then explain these figures and conclusions in my medical report. Tell me what they mean. And don’t lie to me.”

Yara handed him her latest examination results and compared them with yesterday’s report. She might not be medically
