Chapter 344 My Family Consists of Only One Person
At this point, neither of them spoke. Zacharias undressed andy down on the sick bed.
Ang took her needle and concentrated on applying acupuncture to him.
As the acupuncture session progressed, when Ang was removing the needles from his back,
Zacharias spoke again. “I didn’t expect you to still be willing toe and treat me. I thought you were
angry about what happened before.”
“What happened?” Ang asked, raising an eyebrow as she took out the needles.
Zacharias thought she had forgotten, paused for a moment, and then added, “They will bring Fanny
back home. I didn’t expect this to happen because it was not what was promised, but I couldn’t stop it.
I’m sorry.”
With a frown, Ang pulled out the needles. “Wasn’t she sent awayter?”
She was aware of Fanny’s return, and Scarlet had caused amotion with her at the time, but she
refused to give in.
In the end, Fanny was indeed sent out of the Kins Family again.
“They…” Zacharias hesitated, realizing that Ang was not forgetful but truly kept in the dark.
She didn’t know that Fanny had been brought back to the Kins Family again. James and Joseph had
kept it a secret so well.
He didn’t know either until he went home to get something before leaving and found Fanny’s room
being cleaned again.
Fanny was in Nortnd, but the Kins Family cared about her. Especially George, who stayed. at home,
kept mentioning Fanny and even said that Fanny would bring Ang back to Riverdon.
The entire Kins Family, except for George, who deluded himself, did not believe that Fanny could bring
Ang back to Riverdon.
It was also the reason he showed up in Nortnd.
Joseph and James agreed to send Fanny to Nortnd mainly because Fanny had once again be
famous in Nortnd, and the scandal of being a third party had made it to the Riverdon Daily, so she
needed toy low in Nortnd.

Joseph came up with the idea of transferring to Nortnd himself, bringing Zacharias and Scarlet to
seek medical treatment in Nortnd.
“What happened to them?” Ang sensed that something was wrong, gesturing for him to lie down for
acupuncture while asking.
Zacharias slowlyy down and finally confessed, “Fanny, she went back home again.”
“Is that so?” Ang pinched the silver needle, asking expressionlessly.
Before leaving Riverdon, she had no interest in the Kins Family’s affairs as she was busy preparing for
training. However, she did not expect that Joseph and James were still up to their old tricks, bringing
Fanny back into the Kins Family.
“Yes,” Zacharias replied affirmatively, feeling guilty. He didn’t dare to look at Ang’s face, instead
saying, “If you’re upset, you don’t have to treat me.”
He knew that Ang had truly helped him every time she treated him, and he was genuinely grateful to
her. Therefore, when his brothers in the Kins Family did such a thing again, he couldn’t ignore it or feel
guiltless.
“I don’t do anything halfway.” Although she was speechless, Ang continued to insert the needles
without stopping.
Her response took Zacharias by surprise.
“But you know now, you can choose to just let me go on like this.” Hey there, but his words. were just
as firm.

Ang put down another needle and repeated, “I said, I don’t do things halfway. And even if you want
me to stop now, Joseph will stille to bother me.”
Shecked the time and energy to keep going back and forth. If Zacharias wasn’t in Nortnd, she
would have refused without hesitation. However, Joseph brought Zacharias to Nortnd, so there was
no need for her to refuse.
Having lived two lifetimes, in her previous life she didn’t live authentically. In this lifetime, she wished to
live freely and follow her heart.
“I understand.” With a quiet sigh, Zacharias said, “I’ll let Joseph know not to bother you
anymore.”
Ang nced at him and met Zacharias‘ gaze.
However, there was ack of vitality in his eyes.

Seeing the emotions in his eyes, she questioned, a little shocked, “Why? Why did you think this way?”
Ang had never seen Zacharias give up on treatment and express himself in such a way- not in this
life or thest.
She felt like she had overlooked something.
“It’s nothing. I just feel like as your brother, I have been neglectful. From the moment you returned to
the Kins Family, until now, we have…, Zacharias paused to catch his breath before continuing. “We
haven’t been good to you. So, I feel uncasy.”
He appeared uneasy and awkward, with no other expression on his face.
His change was not sudden; she had sensed it even back in Riverdon when they were together.
She assumed it was all in her head, though, so she ignored it at the time.
Now that she heard Zacharias say it, she understood it wasn’t a figment of her imagination; rather, it
was real.
He had indeed changed a bit, and they were both slow to realize it.
Ang said, “You feel bad? Then live your life well.“,
Among the four Kins brothers, she had the least dislike for Zacharias, and he had done the least to
disgust her.

She would most likely pick him to live with if she could choose between the Kins brothers.
“But I…” Zacharias looked at her, surprised, and opened his mouth to say something, but didn’t.
“Shh. I need to focus. He hesitated, but Ang ignored it, saying just one line and focusing on the
acupuncture.
Although the mysterious needles were magical, they were also draining, and she didn’t want to keep
distracting herself by talking to Zacharias.
Zacharias still didn’t speak up until the acupuncture was done.
“Ang, Jonathan, and the others… They’re just oblivious to the truth,” he said abruptly as Ang
prepared to leave the ward after putting away the needles.

“Someday, they will understand, and I will help you. Then you can go home. We have always been a
family.” Zacharias‘ voice was a little less weak than before, but it still had a hint of uncertainty as he
spoke softly.
Ang nced back at him, frowned, and replied, “You’re overthinking it. I never thought about going
back to the Kins Family.”
For her, the Kins Family was never a good ce. It was a predicament, a cage, and definitely not her
home.
She saw Zacharias‘ expression change. Even though he had received acupuncture and his face was
no longer as pale–in fact, it was slightly pink–he looked extremely ashamed.
“But-“Zacharias wanted to say something more after hearing Ang’s words.
Straight away, Ang cut him off, saying, “There’s no ‘but. You’re not my family. My family consists of
only one person.”
She had already guessed what Zacharias wanted to say. He tried to emphasize the concept of family,
but she didn’t let him.
Once she had finished her sentence, Ang turned to leave the ward.
