“Sorry, no.” Angela shook her head.

Seriously, Jonathan wasn’t exactly a stranger. How could she possibly kick him out and chat with this outsider, Joseph? 

Joseph furrowed his brow. He seemed to be weighing the odds of persuading Angela. 

Finally, he sighed resignedly. 

“Alright, spill it. Time’s ticking,” Jonathan urged impatiently with a displeased look. 

Joseph avoided meeting Jonathan’s gaze. He tried to ignore his obvious presence and turned to Angela. “Angela, you know why I’m here, right?“. 

“I don’t know. Just spit it out.” Angela frowned. She was not interested in hearing his unnecessary chatter and gestured for him to get to the point. 

Joseph awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth. He swallowed nervously and didn’t know how to broach the subject. 

He still wanted Angela to treat Zacharias, but he didn’t know how to bring it up because he knew that Angela might not agree. Thus, he felt a pang of 

concern. 

And now, it wasn’t just Zacharias in jeopardy, but also Fanny. 

If they couldn’t secure a kidney for Fanny soon, Zacharias might resort to reckless actions. 

He glanced at Jonathan seated beside Angela and couldn’t help but wonder. If Jonathan could help find a kidney, then…

Just as the thought crossed his mind, he was met with a stern glare. It wasn’t just anyone glaring at him, but Jonathan himself. 

The latter’s eyes emitted a chilling intensity, warning him against further consideration and reserving his softer side solely for Angela. 

Joseph suppressed his unease and set aside his fleeting thoughts. He spoke softly, “Zacharias is in a bad state. He has lost his will to live.” 

Joseph’s words drew Angela’s attention, and her eyebrows arched in surprise. 

However, when she recalled Zacharias‘ deliberate provocation during their last encounter at the hospital, it seemed evident that he lacked the desire to continue living. 

“I’ve heard all that before. How about telling me something new?” she remarked. 

ad a nagging suspicion that his agitation wasn’t solely about 

Zacharias; it likely involved Fanny as well. 

Based on her understanding of her brothers, Fanny was likely dealing with some health issues and though Angela was no longer targeted by them, they would undoubtedly still be fretting over Fanny and would be busy tending to her. 

When he mentioned Zacharias, he observed her furrowed her brow momentarily. He swiftly regained composure as he was aware that Jonathan was nearby. 

He fought to suppress the irritation simmering within him and wanted to converse calmly with her. Yet, his every attempt to speak proved futile. 

The words lingered on the tip of his tongue before he swallowed them back down. As such, he felt frustrated by his inability to articulate his

thoughts. 

The case with which Angela mentioned knowing Zacharias had lost his will to live made Joseph reconsider the moment when Zacharias had confided in him in the hospital ward, expressing concern that he might have said something harsh to Angela. 

Did she already notice that Zacharias was not in the right state at that time? But she didn’t tell me! 

In the end, he couldn’t contain the anger simmering within him. 

“You knew about this beforehand? Why didn’t you tell me?” Once the fury erupted, keeping it in check became nearly impossible. 

Jonathan shot Joseph a chilling glare, causing him to tremble involuntarily. 

Angela gently rested her hand on Jonathan’s to soothe him before shifting her gaze toward Joseph. 

She found Joseph’s inquiry amusing. “Seriously? Am I supposed to be the one keeping you, updated on your family affairs?” 

Jonathan’s piercing stare helped Joseph regain some composure, though Angela’s words stung. 

Indeed, to the Kins Family members, Angela was regarded as an outsider, if not less. So, why should he expect her to keep him in the loop? 

Despite Joseph’s rational thoughts, he couldn’t shake off his resentment toward Angela. 

He frowned, but his gaze was still clouded with displeasure. 

Angela brushed off his glare. “If you’ve got nothing else to add, then we’re

done here. Don’t bother Jonathan anymore.” 

When Angela mentioned him, Jonathan chimed in with a cautionary note, “Next time you come knocking, luck might not be on your side.” 

Joseph felt the weight of the implied threat and couldn’t shake off the discomfort it brought. His mind swirled with resentment, yet he managed to push it down and buried it beneath a facade of calm resignation. 

“What more do you want to know?” Joseph asked wearily, his tone tinged with defeat. 

Angela chuckled softly and said amusingly, “It’s not about what I want to know but what you’re willing to confess. But truth be told, I doubt anything you say will sway my decision.” 

Joseph felt the simmering anger rise within him once again at her nonchalant response. His fists clenched beneath the table and he grinded his teeth to regain control. 

“I reckon he’s said his piece. Let’s move along,” Jonathan interjected casually and shot a glance at Joseph before turning his attention back to Angela. 

Panic gripped Joseph as he watched Jonathan prepare to leave with Angela. 

“Angela, you promised to help cure Zacharias!” he blurted out, the urgency evident in his voice. 

Despite his sudden outburst, he made sure to keep his tone subdued, though the surprise in his words couldn’t be concealed by the three of them. 

Angela shrugged casually. “You guys broke the agreement first.”

Joseph was momentarily taken aback by her words.
