Angela’s approaches were just different, and Zacharias was quite disappointed in her. Zacharias displeasure was unknown to her, and even if it had been known, she would not have cared. She had come to the conclusion that the Kins Family could not be saved, and had given up on them.
She went to bed early because she had an exam the next day and it was becoming late in the evening. Scarlet and Fanny were assisting Joseph to the sofa even before Zacharias became lost in meditation. At last, the three of them got comfortable.
Joseph questioned Zacharias, “Zac, how have you been feeling these past few days?” as soon as he sat down.
Zacharias did not realize it, but he was actually not doing well, especially with his very pale skin. He was just waiting for the right opportunity to give Fanny his kidney as he had lost all will to life.
Joseph, I’ve been alright these past several days. I apologize. Joseph would not have threatened Angela or found himself in this predicament if it weren’t for him.
Both Joseph and Angela shared some of the blame for Joseph’s present miserable look. Zacharias is planning to donate his kidney to Fanny in secret, despite Joseph’s best attempts to rescue him.
Zacharias‘ guilt was increased when he caught the glimpse of Fanny’s troubled and hurt visage as she looked at him.
He requested Fanny to keep it a secret from the other family members and accompanied her to the exam in the morning. This puts the good–natured Fanny in a painful and challenging predicament. Zacharias felt gloomy and his face went pale.
“What are you apologizing for?” With unexpected burst of strength, Joseph said, “You are my brother.” You apologize to me, but why All you have to do is look for yourself. I’ll figure out a method to heal you!”
Quite unlike earlier, his tone was forceful yet composed
He changed so abruptly that Scarlet and Fanny were shocked. Scarlet was the first to console him, saying, “Joseph, I admire you thinking this positively. But you have to start off slowly. Take care of your health first since you have been suffering.”
During their vehicle chat, Angela had actively pushed Joseph to look for a kidney donor, but only because she knew that he would not be physically strained by the endeavor. But Zacharias’s health had gotten so bad that not even the best private hospitals could properly care for him. Angela had stopped treating Zacharias, even though she was the only one who

could have kept him stable. Joseph was now left with the heavy responsibility of worrying for Zacharias’s health and trying to find Angela or find another reliable physician. Whatever route he took, it would surely be physically and psychologically taxing.
Scarlet was therefore forced to briefly hold Joseph back despite her worry for her brother’s well–being. She could not stand to see her boys fall apart in front of her eyes. She already carried a heavy burden for Samuel, who was incarcerated, and the years of suffering had worn her down to the point where she could not stand to face another day. She really could not take any more hits at this point.
Sensing the intense worry and suffering in Scarlet’s gaze, Joseph gently nodded and reassured her, saying, “Mom, I know my limits.”
Wiping the dew from the corner of her eyes, Scarlet hoped that the kids would not notice her frail side and would be too affected by her awful attitude. She stated plainly, “It’s getting late. Now is the time to relax.”
“Where’s James,” inquired Zacharias. Why didn’t he return today?”
Joseph should be with James now that he’s back, as James had been pushing for Joseph’s release.
Scarlet answered, “I asked James, but he’s busy with something else.” She continued, observing that Zacharias was keen to ask more, saying, “He need to return tomorrow. Then, we can talk about it.”
In the end, Zacharias stopped asking questions. It was becoming late in the evening, so everyone went back to their rooms. Fanny saw Joseph’s shadow just beyond the door as she brought Scarlet back to her room.
“Joseph?” Though Fanny couldn’t be certain, she had the impression that Joseph wasn’t just stopping by but was actively waiting for her.
Joseph turned to face her when she called out to him, saying, “Let’s talk inside.”
With a nod, Fanny trailed behind him. They soon came inside a room.
Joseph burst in the door and said, “Fanny, do you know what James went to do?”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
A flutter of anticipation filled Fanny’s heart as she sensed Joseph had made a discovery.
“I–I…” she started, finding it difficult to express to Joseph what she really wanted to say because it was all speculation.
If Jonathan had truly challenged Florence’s associates, she was interested to know. And even if he had, it did not seem like he would go after justice. Florence had reached out to James, and they had to follow her instructions. She was taken before Florence without her will, but

Fanny came to the realization that Florence enjoyed their misery after meeting her several times. She was just cruel.
Joseph saw Fanny’s hesitancy and inquired, “Why are you hesitant to speak? Is it too much to tell you what our brother is up to?”
Actually, he had charged his phone and tried to call James before he asked Fanny.
But the call went unanswered, for whatever reason. Perhaps because it was late and James had already turned in for the evening. He could not get through to James, so he remembered Fanny’s attitude in the vehicle and went straight to her for clarification.
“It’s not that…” After hearing Joseph’s comments, Fanny quickly shook her head.
She was careful with her remarks, not urging him outright to stay ignorant. She recognized that Zacharias had almost confirmed their suitability for a kidney donation, so she could see why the rest of the Kins Family did not accept his choice.
And Fanny realized that, for all the Kins Family’s seeming fondness, they had never really thought of her as highly as Zacharias. How could she not feel bitter? Fanny pretended to be scared and upset as her mind raced, keeping her deep feelings hidden from Joseph.
With a sigh, Joseph reached out to stroke her hair consolingly. He said, “I didn’t mean to blame you.”
