Joseph’s dissatisfaction with Angela was palpable. Fanny swiftly pocketed her phone, resisting the urge to confront Joseph immediately. Instead, she worked to compose herself, masking her previous panic behind a calm exterior. She connected the dots as she processed the situation: the photo and text message were both from Kaydron! She confirmed her suspicion through the outgoing call records and realized it was the same number. Even the missed call had been made by Kaydron using her phone that morning. It dawned on her–he was threatening her. Kaydron had taken indecent photos of her the previous night, intending to use them as leverage. 

A shiver ran down Fanny’s spine, her nerves on edge as she processed the situation. Initially dismissing the encounter as a mere encounter with a disgusting stray dog, she now realizes that the stray dog was threatening her. Determined not to let him get away with it, she refused to take the blame for the previous night’s incident, knowing it was Kaydron’s doing. Despite shifting the blame onto Angela, she felt no guilt–it was a necessary measure to protect herself. 

Angela deserved it. I must not let him get away with it! she thought. 

She needed Joseph to help her confront Angela, make her pay the price, and endure her torment. 

Joseph, oblivious to the situation, could not sense anything amiss with Fanny except her visibly shaking body. He said apologetically, “Fanny, don’t worry. I will help you uncover the truth. If it was her, our family would make her pay and compensate you.” 

Joseph hurried to verify the situation with Angela. After all, Fanny had

mentioned her, even though she did not mention much about the man. As Joseph tried calling, Fanny finally composed herself. 

Joseph, thank you. But she wouldn’t dare answer your call at a time like this Joseph. Fanny sobbed, wiping away tears before continuing, “That man said Angela paid him. That’s why he…” 

Fanny’s voice trailed off towards the end, but the implication was clear. Joseph stood behind her, feeling immense sorrow. He believed Fanny without question and moved to comfort her, “Fanny, trust me, I will seek justice for you!” 

Fanny hid her resentment, replacing it with a look of innocence as she gazed at him. 

“Really?” she asked tremblingly, “But Joseph, you haven’t asked Angela yet, and she hasn’t confessed.” 

Joseph noticed the fear in her eyes and gently touched her head. 

‘She must be feeling guilty. That’s why she’s avoiding the call! Everyone says Angela hired him, so it must be connected to her. No one else but that malicious woman Angela would harm you for no reason!” 

Joseph grew more convinced as he spoke, convincing himself entirely. 

He looked at Fanny with pity. She had always been delicate, and their siblings always protected and cherished her. Only Angela, that evil woman. would repeatedly harm their sister out of envy! 

Fanny looked at Joseph with a mix of sadness and vulnerability. 

“But Angela has Jonathan on her side. I’m worried, Joseph. You might…. you know what? You don’t have to go after her. I’ll be okay.” 

Without skipping a beat, Joseph said, “Fanny, she has caused you harm.

How could I not confront her when she dares to do such a thing to you?” 

Worried that he had spoken too harshly and scared Fanny, he quickly reassured her in a gentle voice, “Don’t you worry about a thing, I will handle it.” 

“I’m afraid Angela will also target you. She’s completely ignoring her past. She’s become terrifying.” 

As memories of the hurtful past flooded back, she became flustered and anxious, trying to withdraw herself. 

Joseph sighed and embraced her to comfort her. “Don’t be afraid, Fanny. You’re just too kind. I will make Angela pay for her sins and more.” 

Even if he could not do it right away, he would make sure to get payback. 

“Okay, Fanny, Listen to Joseph. Don’t be afraid,” Fanny murmured, leaning into Joseph’s embrace. 

“Joseph.” She suddenly grabbed his clothes, nervously saying, “Please don’t tell anyone about what happened yesterday. I don’t want…” 

“I won’t say anything,” he assured her earnestly. 

After receiving his assurance, Fanny’s tense expression relaxed slightly, and she leaned against him again, murmuring. However, she seemed disheartened, rambling on about something. Joseph gently patted her back, hoping to soothe her to sleep. 

But as she continued to murmur, she suddenly asked sadly, “Joseph, do you know where Christopher is? He promised to come to the hospital, but he didn’t.” 

As she spoke, she burst into tears.

Joseph froze momentarily, suddenly remembering that he had told Christopher about the possibility of Fanny being forced by someone. His stiffness was too apparent, and Fanny, leaning against him, immediately sensed it. 

“Joseph?” Fanny asked in confusion.
