A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 625

Chapter 625

Joseph noticed that Helen was genuinely angry and stopped pushing her. He simply left her with a few words and told her to think about it herself.

At that moment, Jenna called and relayed Yara’s proposal to him, leaving the decision in his hands.

Was that woman actually willing to spend money on him? Someone like her would never willingly part with her money. After all, she was nothing without it. There was no way she’d simply surrender her lifeline.

Joseph neither accepted nor rejected the offer. He simply told Jenna not to get involved.

He didn’t leave Jenton University Hospital immediately. Instead, he went to the ward of their former housekeeper, Mary.

Last time, Joseph had gotten information about Yara from Mary. Then, he’d handed her over to Cora, and Cota had punished her severely, leaving her badly injured and bedridden for several months.

Mary hadn’t even dared to report it to the police, and she’d been forced to pay for her own medical treatment.

Joseph entered the ward and asked Mary’s family members to step aside. After checking her pulse, he quietly used a needle to prick her while she was asleep.

A moment later, Mary jolted awake. After looking around in confusion, she assumed Joseph was simply another doctor since she didn’t recognize the man standing before her.

He asked casually, “Aren’t you the housekeeper who worked for Jenton’s richest woman, Cora Lowell? How did you end up beaten this badly? Did you report it to the police?”

Mary looked at Joseph warily and said, “I fell. Nobody beat me, so don’t make things up. If someone had beaten me up, I would’ve reported it already.”

Joseph smiled. “I’m from the Zahn medical sect. I know more than you think, so don’t bother trying to hide things from me. Relax, I’m not here to cause you trouble. Besides, you don’t have anything I need.”

Mary looked at Joseph. “You’re from the Zahn medical sect?”

She was slightly less suspicious now, but even more confused as to why someone from the Zahn family would seek her out.

Joseph said, “You really are uninformed. Don’t you know who I am? I’m Yara Zahn’s boyfriend.”

Mary’s eyes widened. “You’re Ms. Yara’s boyfriend?”

“You don’t believe me? Here.” Joseph took out a photo of himself posing cheek-to-cheek with Yara. Mary’s expression immediately softened, and a hint of awe appeared in her gaze.

Before Joseph could say anything, tears welled up in Mary’s eyes. She choked out, “Please tell Ms. Yara that I never betrayed her. No matter how Cora and Joseph tortured me, I remained loyal. I will always be loyal to her.”

Joseph raised an eyebrow. “Do you really expect anyone to believe that? If you didn’t betray Yara, how did she end up in Joseph’s hands back then?”

Mary grew increasingly emotional. “I really didn’t want to tell Joseph anything. It’s just that their methods were too terrifying, and I couldn’t withstand it. I only told him about Lara. I didn’t expect Joseph to track Ms. Yara down from that.”

Joseph said gently, “Don’t panic. You’re not the only one who couldn’t withstand Joseph’s methods. Even Yara

couldn’t handle what he did to her. I’m looking for Joseph right now. I’m going to find a way to make him pay a hundredfold for everything he did to Yara.

“You lived with Joseph and Cora for so many years. You should know quite a bit about Joseph. Tell me what you know about him.”

Joseph’s true purpose was to extract information from her. He continued, “Yara and I may be lovers, but there are still things she refuses to tell me. As her man, just because she doesn’t tell me something doesn’t mean I’m not entitled to know. I’ll get revenge for everything she’s suffered and endured.”

Mary’s gaze was filled with hatred. “You absolutely cannot let that bastard off the hook. Make him pay. Make sure he can never get back on his feet.”
