    Chapter 345 Did Ang Bully You?


    Upon exiting the ward, Ang was greeted by Jonathan and Joseph.


    With Jonathan at her side, Joseph hesitated to step forward despite his concern.


    Jonathan observed Ang’s pallidplexion, feeling a pang of sympathy as he helped her to her


    feet. In return, Ang offered him a reassuring smile.


    Joseph inquired, “How is Zac faring?”


    Ang nced at him before responding. “You should have someone assess his mental state.”


    Subsequently, she took hold of Jonathan’s hand and suggested, “Let’s go.”


    Their lunch ns were thwarted by Joseph’s interruption, depriving them not only of a meal but also of


    their chance to rest.


    Although Joseph wanted to ask more questions, a stern look from Jonathan deterred him as he


    watched the pair walk away.


    As they retreated, he suddenly remembered that Ang had not unblocked him.


    However, his concern for Zacharias prompted him to cautiously check on his condition.


    Jonathan assisted Ang into the car and inquired, “Are you feeling better?”


    Seeing her exhaustion, he expressed his concern and care for her.


    Ang shook her head, replying, “I’ll be fine after a short rest. Let’s go grab a bite.”


    Seeing her acquiescence, Jonathan instructed Oliver to drive.


    He drew her close and whispered, “You can take a nap; we’ll order food and dine at home.”


    She nodded at the mention of returning home, leaning against Jonathan and drifting off to sleep.


    Meanwhile, after Ang departed, Joseph checked on Zacharias before contacting Fanny.


    At that moment, Fanny had just been escorted home by Yaxley and was ted to learn of their


    impending trip to Nortnd.


    Despite feeling physically and mentally drained from her encounter with Yaxley, she agreed

    to go to the hospital.


    Upon arrival, Joseph was preupied, prompting her to visit Scarlet first.

    Even after Scarlet’s transfer to Nortnd, May continued to care for her. Spotting Fanny, May


    eximed, “Oh, it’s Miss Fanny!”


    Relieved, Fanny inquired, “How is my mom doing?”


    May sighed and replied, “It’s only been a few days, so there hasn’t been any change. I hope the


    doctors in Nortnd can help. It’s distressing to see your mother in this state. I’m sure you’re worried,


    too.”


    Fanny nodded in agreement, stating, “Yes, I hope she’ll wake up soon.”


    May was about to say more when Fanny abruptly requested, “Ms. May, could you step out for a


    moment? I’d like to have a private conversation with my mother.”


    “About what?” May inquired, but upon receiving no response from Fanny, she simply shrugged and


    exited the room.


    Alone by the bedside, Fanny took a seat. Tears welled up in her eyes as she pleaded, “Mom, please


    wake up soon. I’m going through so much right now.”


    After spending a few days in Nortnd, she came to realize that Mr. Leigh introduced by George was


    not genuinely concerned for her well–being but viewed her as a means to maintain connections with


    affluent individuals.


    Though Dn’s intentions were not overt, she could sense his ulterior motives.


    Fortunately, she crossed paths with Yaxley, sparing her from being coerced by Dn into attending


    blind dates with other people.


    Fanny’s thoughts turned to Christopher as she reflected on blind dates.


    Feeling conflicted, she decided to confide in Scarlet about Christopher and her predicament.


    Christopher was portrayed as the deceitful individual who persisted in entangling himself with her


    despite betraying her.


    And there were also mentions of Ang. However, most of the things rted to Ang were not


    spoken of in a positive light..


    As she cried and spoke, she didn’t notice Scarlet’s fingers moving slightly.

    Just then, there was a knock on the room door, and she quickly wiped away her tears.


    Joseph entered, and upon seeing Fanny crying so intensely, he immediately felt heartbroken.


    “Fanny, what’s wrong?” he asked.


    Seeing Joseph, Fanny threw herself into his arms, sobbing.


    She hadn’t been suffering much these days, but once her emotions erupted, it was hard to contain. At


    that moment, she didn’t want to hold back.


    Joseph quickly embraced her,forting her and gently patting her to soothe her.


    He felt sorry for her and wanted to ask why, but he knew he couldn’t rush her.


    After a while, when Fanny had cried herself out and leaned against Joseph’s chest, he finally asked,


    “What’s wrong? Fanny, who hurt you?”


    Fanny whispered, “No one, Joseph.


    “Why are you crying like this?” Joseph didn’t let go of his suspicions, specting in his mind. whether it


    was caused by Ang.


    Ang was also in Nortnd, so it would be easy for her to hurt their Fanny.


    With this thought in mind, he asked, “Did Ang bully you?”


    Fanny was startled, still sobbing, but remained silent.

    This only confirmed Joseph’s suspicions.


    “What did she do? Fanny, tell me. I will help you seek justice!” Joseph hadpletely forgotten about


    being scared to speak up when he saw Ang before, under the influence of his excessive protective


    instincts.


    In the face of his overprotectiveness, all fear was thrown out of his mind.


    “She…” Fanny hesitated, then abruptly stopped, changing the subject. “Joseph, let’s not talk about her.


    I’ll go check on Zac.”


    She couldn’te up with a specific incident to tell him, so she chose to change the topic.


    However, Joseph saw her behavior as pitiful, being bullied by Ang to the point where she dared not


    speak up.

    He felt a deep hatred in his heart but didn’t press further, only determined to the pain Fanny suffered


    from Ang.


    make up for


    Joseph took Fanny to see Zacharias, and before entering, he said, “Zac isn’t feeling well, so don’t stay


    long. Do you want me to go with you?”


    Fanny shook her head and said, “I’ll go see him myself. You go ahead and do your work.”


    Joseph didn’t look too rxed, but she didn’t insist on him staying. Moreover, she couldn’t shake off the


    feeling that Zacharias had been acting strangely toward her during their time in Riverdon..


    She felt a little nervous about meeting Zacharias now.


    And Joseph patted her head and went off to do his own thing.


    Fanny took a deep breath before knocking on Zacharias‘ door.


    When Zacharias saw that it was Fanny who hade, he didn’t speak first.


    “Zac, are you feeling bettertely?” Fanny timidly approached, standing in front of his bed, looking at


    him and asking.


    There was concern in her eyes, but when he looked back at her, she avoided his gaze.


    “Yes, I am.” Zacharias said, “It’s all thanks to Ang for doing acupuncture for me; otherwise, I’d be in


    pain for a little longer.”


    The look on Fanny’s face left Zacharias feeling torn between satisfaction and conflict. Fanny was their


    younger sister, after all, and had not done anything particrly oundish. He shouldn’t be cold


    towards her.


    When Fanny heard Zacharias mention Ang, her face stiffened slightly, but she agreed anyway,


    saying, “Yes, all thanks to her. I’m to me since I’m not a inedical professional, and I can’t help you.”
