A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 773

Chapter 773

Once Cora confirmed that Daniel and Winona were at Emerald Mountain, she didn’t say anything else. After ending the call, she immediately texted Joseph and even went straight to Katie, insisting that she had to see him.

“Oh, Cora. I wonder what you have to say this time.” Joseph sighed. –

Late at night, Joseph sneaked over to Cora’s villa.

“Honey, you’re home.” Cora had left a way in for him.

She led him to the bedroom. They hadn’t seen each other in so long. She had her needs, and so did he, so they wasted no time getting into bed.

Just as they were almost done, Joseph asked, “After this, we’ll go get divorced?”

“Yes. We’ll get divorced after this. I swear I won’t back out this time,” Cora said. The truth was, she wanted to keep him from leaving her.

Cora had no idea how Joseph had managed to hide himself so well. No matter how hard they searched, they found no trace of him. It was as if he had completely vanished.

She guessed that Joseph was somewhere studying and seeking enlightenment, paying no attention to the outside world. He only had a book and a pot of tea with him all day. Since he didn’t interact with anyone else, there was no way she could find him.

But Cora never would have guessed that Henry, who was more powerful than ever, was none other than Joseph himself.

She said, “Honey, I’m in trouble. You have to help me.”

“What is it?” Joseph knew what Cora wanted to say, but he played dumb.

Sure enough, she said, “The Dixons and the Zahns have joined forces to go against me. They want to take our entire fortune and hurt our family.

“I can’t back down, so I have no choice but to fight them. But I’m just a woman. I don’t have the connections to deal with them. I hope you can help me deal with them.”

“What’s going on between you and the Dixons?” Joseph asked.

“Honey, you can tell that you’re the only man I’ve ever been with, right?” Cora asked.

“I don’t even know what to think anymore… Cora, I can’t tell if you’re being insincere or if you’re just messing with me anymore.

“I’m tired. I’m done trying to figure it all out. We’re done here. Shall we get divorced in the morning?”

“We’re not done. I can go for another round, but you’ll have to take the lead.” Cora wanted to say she didn’t want a divorce, but she knew that would only provoke Joseph. She had no choice but to play along.

When it came to intimacy, women naturally had more endurance, while men needed more time to

Cora could just push through it, but he might not be able to do it. After all, he was already 40 years old,

not 20.

As expected, Joseph didn’t move. He said, “Tell me. What’s the deal between you and the Dixons?”

Cora replied, “You have to believe me. I didn’t betray you.”

“Just answer my question.”

“We’re just business partners. A few years ago, I went on a business trip and got to know Winona. Or rather, she approached me first.

“She and I had similar backgrounds and hobbies, so we became fast friends. She helped me sort out problems with my business and introduced me to some projects. Eventually, we grew closer and became best friends.”

Joseph listened, trying to figure out if she was telling the truth.
