Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self (Angela and Joseph) novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448 No Brother 

James, Zacharias managed to muster a smile upon seeing James, although his frail and sickly appearance made it appear pale and weak. 

James felt sorry for his brother, who had always been plagued by illness, and quickly reassured him, “Zacharias, you need to take care of yourself.” 

few 

Zacharias nodded in agreement, but the two of them didn’t have much to talk about. This was partly due to the turmoil that the Kins Family was facing, which left them with very pleasant topics to discuss. 

After exchanging a few words, they lapsed into silence. 

At the sight of her two silent children, Scarlet grew concerned about Joseph and casually inquired of James whether he planned to visit Joseph or go directly to meet Angela. 

“James, are you going to see Joseph first, or are you going straight to Angela?” 

As she spoke, she unconsciously lowered her posture without even realizing it herself. 

Zacharias glanced at Scarlet upon hearing her question, and his gaze naturally shifted to James. 

Joseph remained composed, showing no signs of discomfort at her words. 

All of a sudden, Zacharias grasped the current situation. So, James had come to Northland for Joseph, and it was most likely at the behest of Scarlet. 

Recalling what he had heard from the police earlier, he couldn’t help but pipe up, “James, Joseph got arrested because he…” 

However, before he could finish his sentence, James interjected, “Zacharias, go and get some rest. I’ll just ask Mom about it.” 

He had come for Joseph, but Scarlet had already informed him over the phone that if he wanted Joseph to be released as soon as possible, he needed to go to Angela. 

Even so, as he pondered all the recent information he had heard about Angela, James furrowed his brow. He did not want Zacharias to worry, which was why he chose to advise him to rest at that moment. 

Zacharias shook his head, then said to James, “I’m not tired. James, you came to find a way to save Joseph with Mom, right?” 

James nodded in response. “Yes. Joseph’s case could be a big issue, or it could be a small

problem. I’ll speak to Angela and request for her to release him.” 

Upon mentioning Angela, he subconsciously frowned, as if recollecting some unpleasant 

memories. 

Zacharias pursed his lips at the sight of James‘ confident expression but ultimately refrained from expressing his earlier thoughts. If he were to mention that Joseph had brought it upon himself and to advise James not to disturb Angela, it wouldn’t be appropriate for the time. 

However, Scarlet seemed to sense his sentiments and frowned. “Zac, rest well. I’ll speak with James outside.” 

With that, she rose to her feet. 

She didn’t mean to blame Zacharias, but she simply believed that he was not in a right state of mind due to his illness, and had even grown fearful of Angela. 

Previously, they had been unable to take action against Angela because they were a broken family without a father in Northland. Moreover, coupled with Zacharias‘ poor health, there was nothing Angela had to be afraid of. 

However, now James had arrived. He was the eldest son of the Kins Family and Angela’s older brother. As the elder brother held a fatherly role, she couldn’t possibly disregard everything he said, could she? 

With these thoughts in mind, Scarlet had already exited the ward. 

James noticed the change in Zacharias and offered him a few comforting words before following him out of the ward. 

Seeing James emerge, Scarlet inquired once more, James, have you made a decision?” 

James nodded. “Let’s visit Joseph first to assess the situation.” 

She felt a twinge of discomfort but agreed, “It’s best to see him first; you two haven’t seen. each other in a while, after all.” 

James inquired about the whereabouts of Joseph at the police station before preparing to leave, showing no intention of accompanying Scarlet. 

As she watched his departing figure, Scarlet called Fanny once more. However, Fanny’s phone remained unreachable, causing her to grow anxious. 

After some consideration, she decided to head straight home. Shortly after, James encountered Joseph. 

Upon seeing James, Joseph couldn’t contain his surprise. “James, why are you here?” he

exclaimed. 

James sighed and replied, “Mom sent me to check on you. You can’t stay locked up forever. I came to understand the situation, and then I’ll go find Angela.” 

Feeling uneasy, Joseph stubbornly insisted, “There’s no need to involve Angela. It was my mistake that led me to being discovered this time. Next time, I won’t let Angela get a hold of my weakness.” 

Sighing once more, James looked at Joseph, unsure of what to say. 

Despite not having been in Northland recently, he had kept in touch with Joseph and was aware of his experiences in Northland as well as Angela’s recent attitude. If she maintained her previous tough stance toward Joseph, persuading her would be challenging, and maybe even impossible. 

Nevertheless, since Scarlet wanted him to convince Angela, he felt obligated to do so even if it was just for show. 

However, even if he went to Angela, he would not be as naive as Scarlet to think that merely using his status as the eldest brother would make her change her mind. From the start, he had planned to negotiate with her. 

“Jonathan, you don’t need to offer Angela any incentives. It won’t be a major issue for me to be locked up for a while,” Joseph argued after hearing James‘ thoughts. 

Shaking his head, James responded, “Don’t worry about that. I’ll assess her attitude before I

Although he had already heard Scarlet’s version, he knew that she had twisted the narrative due to her emotions. As he had expected, Joseph’s account differed slightly from Scarlet’s. 

Even after Joseph finished recounting the events, he remained resolute. It was impulsive of him to write those words and have them placed in the classroom where Angela was training, but he had no regrets. Angela had acted ruthlessly, so why couldn’t he speak up?
