A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 738

Chapter 738

Yra wasn’t about to let the opportunity slip away. She started complaining about Henry, portraying him as er.tirely at fault while painting himself as the innocent victim.

Joseph picked her up, placed her on the bed, and restrained her hands behind her back.

Yara started to panic a little. “Joseph, what are you doing?”

This wasn’t how she had imagined things would go. She had assumed showing him her injuries would make him/ sympathize with her, allowing her to take advantage of his concern to win him over.

“Do you like it gentle, or the other way around?” Joseph asked.

“You… You should be gentle with me.” Yara knew Joseph wasn’t going to treat her gently. Yet instead of fear, she felt a strange mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

Joseph removed his coat, took out his stethoscope, and leaned closer. “First, I’ll examine you and make sure you’ve completely recovered. If you have, I’ll give you an injection.”

Yara asked, “I need an injection even if I’m already recovered?”

Joseph then explained what he meant in a deliberately suggestive tone. Yara’s face flushed, and she became increasingly flustered.

But Joseph hadn’t come here for that. His real purpose was to manipulate Yara further and gradually take control of everything she possessed.

If it was possible, he intended to get his hands on Skylar’s assets as well.

The next morning, Joseph was in the hospital when Clara came looking for him again. She immediately asked him for the certificate.

Joseph looked at her calmly. “Bring me written approval from Mr. Zahn Senior and the medical sect. Without their authorization, I won’t issue anything.”

She asked, “Didn’t Yara already speak to you about this? Why are you going back on your word?”

Joseph replied, “Yara is Yara. Mr. Zahn Senior and the medical sect are the only ones I listen to.”

Clara frowned. “Don’t forget your position. People from the medical sect are supposed to listen to the women of the main family without question.”

Joseph remained firm. “I only obey orders from Mr. Zahn Senior and the medical sect. Nothing else you say matters.”

She even called Yara and tried to have her persuade him, but that failed as well.

Joseph soon received a call from Emerald Mountain ordering him to head over there and take over the research that Harry had been handling.

The Zahn medical sect had been researching methods of extending human lifespan for years. They had obtained several ancient medical texts written in archaic script, and Harry had been responsible for deciphering them.

Only then did Joseph understand why they hadn’t arranged for replacements after several doctors had been arrested. There simply weren’t enough people left. The medical sect was running short of doctors.

Joseph was also granted additional privileges. He was given a room inside Emerald Mountain and permission to

enter and leave freely.

course, he still didn’t have permission to meet Owen. He would have to wait until Owen summoned him.

Still, Joseph was in no hurry. They would come begging him once the Zahn medical sect ran out of doctors.

Joseph took the research materials and returned to the hospital. He had no intention of moving into Emerald Mountain yet. Once he entered the compound permanently, his freedom would be considerably restricted.

Late that night, Joseph was still studying the research materials when Natalie suddenly pushed the door open.
