Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self (Angela and Joseph) novel Chapter 421

Chapter 421 Being Disrespected 

Fanny not only endured mockery from Jane and Harley but was also coerced into drinking through a bottle of wine. She refrained from calling Christopher over, which led Jane and Harley to accuse her of wasting their time, pushing her to drink as an apology. 

Fanny was reluctant but felt pressured, as she knew leaving was not an option, not with the circumstances. Finally, she consumed half a bottle of wine, thanks to the despicable Harley. Unsurprisingly, as she exited the club’s private room, she was wobbly and not in the greatest condition. Without the bouncer watching everything unfold help, she felt disoriented, her surroundings blurred, trying her best to navigate the corridor clumsily when suddenly, she collided with somebody’s chest. 

“Watch where you’re going!” 

The loud voice echoed, and she was seized by the hair and lifted. Her scalp stung as she raised her alcohol–clouded gaze, struggling to discern the features of the individual. She could not identify the person in her inebriated state, but the voice reminded her of Christopher. 

“Hey there, little lady, have you had too much to drink?” 

Upon seeing Fanny’s intoxicated face, the man’s irritation dissipated, replaced by a lecherous grin. Kaydron, a portly figure in his thirties, exuded a coarse and uncultured demeanor in both his speech and actions. Unfortunately, his voice bore a striking resemblance to Christopher’s. 

Fanny, who was thoroughly confused, mumbled hazily, “C–Chris…” 

Kaydron bared his yellowed teeth in a lascivious smile, remarking, “Chris? Call me ‘big brother, and I’ll take you to a private room.” 

Unable to respond, Fanny was led away by the uncouth nouveau riche.

This incident did not take long to reach Jane’s ears. 

“Tsk, I wonder how Chris will react when he finds out,” Jane remarked sardonically, sipping her drink. 

Mary then suggested, “Christopher has attracted the attention of the Shelton Family. Perhaps you should find another “insurance” for yourself, Jane?” 

Jane began to contemplate the suggestion. Once Christopher returned home and settled in, he finally turned on his cell phone. Upon doing so, he noticed a missed call from Fanny, evoking a sense of uneasiness. Fanny had contacted him while his cell phone was off, and this made him anxious, and rightfully so. 

Christopher immediately assumed she must be upset due to his lack of response. His next concern was whether she had encountered any trouble. Hastily, he dialed her number. 

Meanwhile, the bodyguard who had escorted him back had almost finished packing his belongings. Christopher’s growing concern over Fanny’s unavailability heightened his anxiety, amplifying with each ignored call. In the midst of his escalating worry over Fanny, he found unexpected reassurance in the presence of the bodyguards. Hence, he inadvertently stalled their departure without urgency. 

On the other hand, Fanny remained unreachable despite numerous attempts. After his fifth failed call, he contacted Joseph. When Joseph picked up the call, he was immediately bombarded with insults before he could utter a word. 

Given different conditions, Christopher might have apologized to Joseph, considering Fanny’s status. Nevertheless, her prolonged unavailability. prompted him to sidestep the risk of further aggravating Joseph. “Joseph, I’ve been attempting to contact Fanny to no avail. Do you have any idea where she might have gone?”

Joseph snapped back sharply, “You have the nerve to ask abo 

if you have any right to know about Fanny! Your behavior is probably the reason she’s ignoring you.” 

Christopher furrowed his brow while suppressing his anger. “Joseph, why don’t you try reaching out to Fanny?” 

With that final remark, he ended the call. 

Even though Joseph vehemently disagreed with Christopher’s persuasion of Zacharias to donate a kidney, he could not ignore Christopher’s genuine concern for Fanny. Thus, immediately after disconnecting the call, Joseph attempted to contact Fanny. However, there was no response when he called her phone. 

Like a pendulum frozen at its peak, his heart hung in suspense. 

Despite his overwhelming worry, he swiftly regained his composure and dialed again. After several rings, a voice finally answered on the other end. 

With a sigh, Joseph felt the weight lift off his chest. His fingers trembled with excitement as he gripped his phone tightly, eager to speak. “Fanny, y- you..” His words were cut short by the interruption of a deep voice on the other end. 

“Hello?” 

It belonged to a man that’s distinctly older than Joseph. 

“Who are you? Why are you answering Fanny’s phone?” Joseph inquired angrily. 

“Fanny?” Kaydron’s voice cut through the room, breaking the silence that followed his intimate encounter with the heavily intoxicated woman lying motionless on the bed. He reached for the ringing phone, his eyes lingering on her unconscious figure with a mixture of satisfaction and

detachment. Seating himself on the edge of the bed, he lit a cigarette, and the glow of the flame cast shadows on the room’s walls, 

“Who are you?” Joseph demanded impatiently. 

Kaydron took a drag of his cigarette and replied, “I’m her partner.” 

With a flick of his thumb, he cut the call short. 

With thoughts of Fanny lingering, he delivered a swift smack to wake the person swiftly before delving back into his pursuits. 

Meanwhile, Joseph was seething with anger upon hearing Kaydron’s words. It is no doubt that my sister has been taken advantage of, he thought. 

He immediately redialed, only to hear the line disconnect.
