Chapter 758
he Zahn family has way too many illegitimate children, and the generations are all mixed up. There’s no point trying to figure out who’s senior to whom. It gives the two of us headaches.
“Things are going incredibly well right now, but I’m still missing a few formalities. I’m short on cash Hand over everything you have. It’s time to go all in.”
Skylar shot back, “Do you really think I’m that easy to fool?”
Joseph scoffed. “Fool you? Isn’t Yara your sister? She’s my first wife now. Isn’t Rhea Mr. Zahn Senior s youngest daughter? She’s my second wife now.
“You can refuse to give me money, but I can still build up my wealth little by little. Once I have enough money, I’ll have even more leverage. Skylar, this is the last chance I’m giving you.”
Joseph gave Skylar a sly smile. “There’s another person in Jenton with plenty of money-Cora. She just congratulated me and showed that she’s willing to cooperate. Do you think her money and yours come from two different worlds?
“Of course, I haven’t worked with her yet. First, I need to find Joseph. Once I find him, I’ll kill him.”
He put on an agitated expression and continued, “Damn it. Joseph went after your sister and made her cheat on me. That humiliation is something I can never forgive. I’m going to make sure he pays for it.
shouldn’t I get rid of the guy who made her cheat on me?”
Tell me,
“You absolutely should!” Skylar agreed immediately, but he was thinking about something else.
If the main branch found out about Yara and Joseph’s relationship, would Henry use it against Yara and divorce her? The family wouldn’t let her off easily. They might go after Skylar as well. The more Skylar thought about it, the more dangerous everything seemed. His future suddenly looked bleak.
Skylar couldn’t help feeling angry at Yara. How could she have been fooled by Joseph so easily? He wanted to kill Joseph.
Joseph said, “Don’t just give me empty words. I’ve already told Yara that if she refuses to make a decision now, when I’m living the good life, she’ll be left out in the cold.”
Skylar replied, “You suddenly being favored by Mr. Zahn Senior was completely beyond my expectations. I can’t give you an answer right away. I’ll make my decision next time.”
Joseph sighed. “Joseph and Cora are already making arrangements to send people after you. If either of them manages to break in once, you’re finished.”
Joseph wasn’t trying to force Skylar. Only by making Skylar voluntarily cough up the money could Joseph get even more.
That night, Joseph received a call from Jenna. She had already heard that he was going to marry two
but she had no idea what he was really thinking.

Jenna responded, “You might not believe me if I tell you. I used to see her coming and going from Mr. Zahn Senior’s place all the time.
“I assumed she was one of his granddaughters or great-granddaughters. I never imagined she was actually his biological daughter. What did you do to make him trust you this much?”
Joseph replied, “So, even you didn’t know everything. Rhea is dependent on drugs. Of course, she doesn’t go out and buy anything herself. She gets the drugs through our hospital. I’m basically a cover for Mr. Zahn Senior. He wants me to provide her with what she needs.”
Jenna was shocked. “I didn’t know there was such a case. Everything makes sense now.”/
Joseph asked, “Is Rhea really Mr. Zahn Senior’s youngest daughter? He doesn’t have any other children younger than her, does he?”
Jenna answered, “According to the information I’ve gathered, the biological material Mr. Zahn Senior preserved when he was young was used up a long time ago. Judging by Rhea’s age, she should have been one of the last successful IVF births.
“I’ve also heard that for decades, Mr. Zahn Senior has stayed away from women because he wanted to preserve his vitality.”
