A Man with Nerves of Steel (Joseph Hart) novel Chapter 464

Chapter 464

Marie added, “Joseph needs help now more than ever. Do everything you can to help him.”

“Grandma, you told me not to get too involved in his business not that long ago. Why the change of heart now?” Yelena asked.

“A man like Joseph isn’t someone you can win over with a few favors. You have to understand him. How are you supposed to build a deeper relationship with him if you just sit back and watch when he goes back to settle the score?”

With a small smile, Marie continued, “Naturally, I have my own selfish thoughts. I hope you and Joseph can build a meaningful connection. And when you get the chance, you should tell him how you feel.”

“Grandma, you…’

“Of course, I’m merely sharing my thoughts. As for matters of the heart, you young people should figure them out yourselves.”

Marie chuckled after saying that. Joseph was an exceptionally capable man, and Yelena was beautiful. In her eyes, they were a good match.

Of course, given both Joseph’s and Yelena’s circumstances, they couldn’t exactly be together publicly, which was why she was dropping these hints in private.

There were things that had to be done while one was young. Once Yelena reached her age, it would be too late to regret it.

And it wasn’t as if Yelena hadn’t considered things herself. She and her husband couldn’t have children, yet they désperately needed an heir because her husband’s standing within his family depended on it.

Without a child, his branch of the family would eventually lose its place. In a big and powerful family, there was no shortage of people with kids ready to take their place.

But she couldn’t tell Joseph that. If she did, their friendship would go right out the window.

Back at the Traditional Medicine Center in Jenton, Cora once again went to Yara’s room. And that was because Yara was using their business project as leverage, demanding Cora track down Joseph and force him to treat her.

Although her condition had stopped getting worse after days of treatment, there was still no improvement. Her legs were still not functioning properly.

“You’re going to drag people down with you out of spite? That’s a toxic mindset. Keep that up, and you’ll have no friends left!”

“Stop wasting my time with this crap and go get Joseph! Make him treat me. He cured Wesley, so he can cure me too. Go now!”

“Joseph isn’t in Jenton. He left to clear his head. And to be honest with you, he has no intention of treating anyone from the Zahn family. And you should know exactly why.”

“Does he even have a choice?” Yara shot back.

“Why wouldn’t he have a choice? He might be a doctor, but he’s also a human being, and everyone has the right to choose. And he’s no longer the man he once was.

“He’s become quite prideful now. Yara, if you actually want him to treat you, you need to set aside your pride. You have to drop your act, sincerely apologize to him, and ask for his forgiveness.”

Cora looked Yara straight in the eye and emphasized, “Especially for what you did to my daughters. How exactly are you going to explain that to him?”
