Chapter 658
“Ha! Not even a kid would believe that! You and I have no bad blood, so I won’t kill you. But you chose to team up with my wife, so I’m not letting you off that easily.”.
Joseph had been betrayed too many times to trust anyone easily. He didn’t make things hard for them, but he made sure they ended up like Jonathan.
At dawn, Cora’s people found the mother and daughter and took them to Jenton University Hospital. After examining them, the doctors realized that they were dealing with the same type of case as Jonathan’s.
Lexi was called to the hospital room. After seeing what had happened to the mother and daughter, she spoke matter-of-factly.” That’s right, Cora. Joseph was behind this.
“He’s done it again. If we go by what happened to my brother, they should get the antidote in a month and make a full recovery afterward.”
Jonathan had indeed recovered and was already planning to head to Jenton to settle the score with Joseph. But after seeing what had happened to the Dixon mother-and-daughter duo, she would have to talk Jonathan out of it.
Cora was startled. Joseph’s vengeance was making things harder for her. Even though she was furious, she refused to give in. If he was trying to force her into a divorce, she was even more determined not to let him have his way.
Lexi said, “Tell me. Could Joseph have turned to the Zahns for protection?”
“Never.” Cora frowned. Since Joseph was convinced that Natalie, Selena, and Kimberly were Skylar’s daughters, he wouldn’t try to get on the Zahns’ good side.
“Then where do you think he’s hiding?” Lexi couldn’t figure that out.
“I don’t know, but I have a feeling he’s nearby!” Cora looked around, unable to shake the feeling that someone was watching her, and that was how Joseph was able to keep an eye on her and know her every move.
Cora was close to the Dixon mother-and-daughter duo, so Joseph saw them as her allies and decided to go after them.
Cora saw Joseph’s actions as payback for having Katie locked up. She realized he had gotten strong enough to stand on his own, and she could no longer control him the way she used to.
Of course, Joseph was still in hiding, so Cora had no way to get through to him.
Hearing that Joseph might be nearby, Lexi suddenly felt a chill run down her spine for no apparent reason. It was as if he were a venomous snake, lurking somewhere in the shadows and ready to strike.
Lexi had crossed Joseph before, and ever since Jonathan woke up, she had repeatedly vowed to settle the score with Joseph. She even made a big show of looking for him, but he hadn’t paid her any attention.
Now Lexi realized Joseph was the type to hold a grudge, and he would always get his revenge.
After leaving the hospital, Lexi and Cora went straight to Joseph Hart Clinic to speak to Katie.
“Planning to abduct me again so you can lure Joseph out? He saw through your schemes a long time ago.
“He’s not going to show himself. Besides, he just called me and told me not to panic. If anything happens to me, he’ll get revenge for me.”
Cora replied, “Tell him to stop pushing his luck. He’s playing with fire!”
Katie shot back. “Do you really think he’s still the same Joseph he used to be? He’s finally able to take control of his own life. Cora, I think you’re the one playing with fire!”
Cora scowled. She knew Joseph was a skilled doctor. Now that he no longer worked at the hospital, anyone who went to him for
