Before she knew it, the door swung open.
Joseph was momentarily stunned when he saw Nathael's face, forgetting to speak for a few seconds.
Is this Nathael's room? It turns out to be Nathael's! But how did Maggie get hold of Nathael's room key? His mind was filled with questions.
Nathael was surprised by Joseph's unexpected visit, his expression growing even colder as he asked, “Mr. Cameron, what brings you here?" Joseph tried to peek past Nathael into the room behind him, but Nathael's tall figure blocked his view.

Joseph? That troublemaker again? How did he even get here? Oh, I dropped my card during the day.

But it turned out she had overestimated him! "I'm not obligated to clear things up for you." Nathael's expression turned stern, his voice icy. His sharp gaze fell on Joseph, making him feel strangely weak, as if his confidence had suddenly disappeared.

The force of the closure almost caught Joseph's nose, causing him to step back in shock, his thoughts racing.
Torn between confirming Maggie's involvement with Nathael and his own feelings of resentment, Joseph couldn't help but wonder how the Camerons could profit from a connection with Nathael.

Just as Alex was about to kick Joseph out, he answered Nathael's call and then pushed Joseph to the ground once again. With a friendly tone, he remarked, "Mr. Harris said you can see, as long as you can handle ten minutes with me." Joseph hesitated about getting into a fight with Alex.
However, considering how things had escalated, backing down now would make him appear cowardly.
"Okay, deal!" With that, Joseph picked himself up from the ground.
