Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self by Fleur Delacour

Chapter 452 | Don’t Have A Brother James raised an eyebrow. “So, Angela has been holding a grudge against Fanny all this time?” As memories of past clashes between Fanny and Angela resurfaced, he couldn't help but acknowledge the possibility. Still, he hesitated to believe Angela was the mastermind behind it all.

Scarlet nodded gravely upon realizing that James, residing far away in Riverdon, might have not been fully informed about Angela’s previous misdeeds that led to conflicts between Fanny and Yaxley. Hence, she wasted no tin bringing it to his attention.

With a furrowed brow, James acknowledged her words. “Mom, I'm aware of that. Joseph filledin.” The mention of Joseph prompted him to ponder, | wonder what insights Joseph might have offered if | were present.

The thought of Joseph still being detained weighed heavily on his mind as he sighed and turned to her. “Mom, have you considered the possibility that Fanny might have offended someone else?” Scarlet swiftly defended Fanny's character, stating, “Fanny is so well-behaved and sensible. It's hard to imagine her offending anyone. Only someone like Angela would target her without reason.

Observing James’ somber expression and lack of response, she continued her criticism of Angela. “Angela doesn’t even have the courage to answer your calls. Clearly, she’s feeling guilty about something!” James remained silent as his thoughts were consumed by the dilemma at hand. “Mom, even if Angela is involved, we can’t afford to antagonize her now, After all, aren't you still relying on her to help rescue Joseph and Zacharias?” Scarlet looked extremely pale, but deep down, she felt that Joseph and Zacharias were indeed slightly more important than Fanny, so she could only sigh and shake her head.

James attempted to comfort her. “I doubt Angela’s behind this. ‘If it were her, Mom, you wouldn't need to worry about Fanny so much.” For sreason, he just couldn't believe Angela was capable of being cruel or ruthless.

Scarlet fell into silence, and her expression was grim.

The mother and son sat quietly on the couch and the atmosphere was silent as well.

175 Chapter 452 | Don’t Have A Brother After a while, Scarlet picked up her phone again and said anxiously, “I'll give Fanny another calle James didn’t stop her. He felt that if she could get through, Fanny shouldn’t be in any life- threatening danger.

On the other side, Fanny, who was left at the villa by Florence, saw her phone fully charged and was about to call James back when she spotted the incoming call from Scarlet.

Her hand trembled as she took the phone, but she answered it as quickly as she could.

When Fanny picked up, Scarlet’s voice rang with a mix of worry and surprise.

“Fanny, where have you been? Your phone was off for ages.” Fanny sensed Scarlet had been searching for her anxiously for a while. “Mom, I'm at a friend's house. She invitedover, and | forgot to give you a heads-up. My phone died, but it’s charged now.” Scarlet found Fanny's explanation a bit stretched, but she was relieved they were finally talking, and the latter's explanation eased her initially tense heart.

Thank God, Fanny isn’t restrained by Angela.

“Okay, that’s a relief. So, when are you coming home, Fanny?” Fanny wasn’t sure herself when she could return.

After hesitating for a while, she finally asked, “Can | stay at my friend's for a few days, Mom? Please?” Scarlet didn’t sound thrilled, but she agreed and reminded Fanny to take care of herself.

Just before hanging up, Scarlet dropped James’ name.

The call was then passed to him.

After a brief exchange, he curiously inquired if Fanny knew anything about Joseph spreading rumors about Angela.

Naturally, Fanny denied any knowledge, and the call ended shortly afterward.

Once the line went dead, she felt a rush of confusion sweep over her.

Why did James suddenly bring up Joseph’s gossip about Angela? Does he suspect my involvement? 2/5 Chapter 1521 Don’t Have A Brother With a quick shake of her head, she dismissed the thought.

Her only link to the matter was Telvis, whom she had introduced to Joseph.

It all started on her first day back at Northland Medical University after Christopher departed from Northland.

And it was Joseph's concern for her that led him to drive her to school that day.

When they casually crossed paths with Telvis, they were discussing how heartless Angela was for completely disregarding Zacharias’ illness.

That person seems to be in training with Angela,” she mentioned, gesturing toward Telvis.

Joseph, already upset with Angela’s cold treatment, scrutinized Telvis after hearing her words, and this made Fanny secretly hope he would do something about it.

However, she didn’t expect him to just hand Telvis a flimsy note. Though everything written on the note was true, it still gave Angela an opportunity.

She outright denied Zacharias, her own brother.

Thinking about how Joseph didn’t cause any trouble for Angela but ended up embarrassed instead, Fanny felt he was more trouble than he was worth.

But even though she had a lot of opinions about him in her heart, she didn’t dare to reveal them in front of him.

The next morning.

Angela learned from Jonathan that James had stopped by. Still half-asleep, she mumbled, “When?” Jonathan smirked, and a trace of amusement danced in his eyes.

“After you dozed off.

Angela's checks flushed immediately. She recalled how worn out she was last night after Jonathan's relentless teasing.

Upon contemplating his unchecked desires, she felt a mix of embarrassment and wistfulness. Back in Riverdon, Sebastian and May would probably have been hoping for her to have a chubby little boy by now.

As she reminisced, her blush deepened.

Yet, despite everything, memories of Riverdon made her feel a pang of longing. Even though 3/5 Chapter 452 | Don’t Have A Brother there wasn't all sunshine and roses in her past life, it was still home, where she felt more at case.

And with friends who cared for her and people like Sebastian and May, who felt like family, Angela felt a certain fondness for Riverdon.

When she cto Northland for training, May originally wanted to accompany her, but she declined the offer.

Even with Jonathan's arrival, Sebastian and May didn’t join. Apart from themselves and Oliver, the bodyguard, their accommodation only had a housekeeper who handled cleaning and cooking.

And thanks to Jonathan's specific instructions, the housekeeper rarely crossed their path.

After being lost in her thoughts for too long, Angela was startled when he called out to her softly.

She snapped back to reality and slowly got up. It dawned on her, prompted by his mention of James earlier, that she should inquire further.

“Why is James looking for me?” She always sensed trouble whenever the Kins Family reached out to her.

With Joseph's recent detainment, Angela couldn't shake the suspicion that James‘ appearance was somehow linked to it.

“I didn’t ask, but it’s probably not a good thing,” Jonathan replied, his tone icy yet matter-of- fact. However, he still proceeded to summarize his conversation with James for her.

Angela couldn't help but frown at his words.

Jonathan's response mirrored her thoughts, almost like they were on the swavelength.

And she couldn't believe he had just confronted James, saying she had no brother.

It really hit close to hfor her.

Being tangled up with the Kins Family only brought her disgust. How could she consider them as kin? It becclear to her that James was definitely not her brother. She had no brother.

Jonathan gently tousled her hair and checked the tbefore softly suggesting, “Let's ready for dinner, then I'll walk you to school.” get Chapter 452 | Don’t Have A Brother Angela looked away from her thoughts and flashed him a big smile. “Sure.
