Joseph and Gemma Zahn were both adults, so they knew there was no point in making things awkward.

They did not mention what had happened in the hospital room and brushed it off as an awkward first encounter.

Gemma took off her mask, unveiling a beautiful, stunning face. She then took off her coat, exposing her graceful,. curvy figure. She was quite a sight.

What a beauty…

Joseph took off his smile and flashed her a friendly smile. Unfortunately, it also put his ugliest features on display, and he looked really out of place next to the two gorgeous women. He was such an eyesore.

“Come on. Lunch is on me,” Gemma said.

“Alright!” Joseph didn’t turn her down as he wanted to learn more of the Zahn family’s secrets. The best way to do that was to get closer to the Zahns.

At the moment, the outsiders and the Zahns had reached a temporary truce and were no longer fighting. In a way, they might even agree to control Jenton jointly.

But that wasn’t what Joseph wanted. He had to find another way to stir up trouble.

When Gemma excused herself to use the washroom, Joseph seized the opportunity and asked Jenna, “What’s Gemma’s deal? How close are you two? Do you think she’ll see through our act?”

“She’s here for you,” Jenna explained.

“Me? Do I even know her?”

“Me?

“When we competed to see who was the better doctor, I lost to you, and she got wind of that. She wanted to come back and restore the medical sect’s reputation, so she came here to look for you.

“When she got back, she found out that I had chosen an ugly guy like you as my boyfriend. She immediately became curious about you.

“I think Gemma will try to approach you in private. You need to watch out. Don’t fall into her trap,” Jenna explained.

Whether it was Joseph or the person disguised as Henry Jebb, Gemma had managed to track down the right guy. Jenna couldn’t do anything about that.

“Oh, a trap? Is she really cunning?” Joseph finally understood why Gemma had touched him earlier. Was she really just testing him?

“Gemma’s been studying abroad for years, so she can be pretty bold in certain ways. She might even try to seduce you.”

“Trying to win me over with her looks? Ha!” Joseph scoffed. Gemma could try that.

“You sure have high hopes, don’t you? Look at how gorgeous Gemma is. Do you really think she’d be short on admirers?

“I’ll be honest. Skylar has been pursuing Gemma for ages, and I don’t think she even turned him down. As for what’s going on between them, I’ll leave that to your imagination.”

“Skylar’s actually making a move on someone from his family?”

“Gemma’s just like me. She’s also an orphan the Zahn medical sect took in. Even though she carries the Zahn surname, she’s not actually a true Zahn, so she’s not really considered Skylar’s family,” Jenna explained.

“Just like how Ivan approached you last night because of me. He’s confessed his love to me many times and asked me to be with him. I turned him down every time, yet he refuses to give up.”
