Upon receiving Zacharias'' response, Scarlet was relieved of her anxiety. Nevertheless, upon recollecting the doctor''s caution regarding Zacharias'' inclination towards depression, she found herself experiencing feelings of anxiety and apprehension. She felt an instinctual urge to providefort, prompting her to shift the conversation by reminiscing about past events.
Initially, Zacharias was indecisive about his intentions and remained silent while she spoke.
However, as Scarlet borated on their tranquil life in Riverdon before Ang''s disruptive influence, he was prompted to recall images from his dreams.
Scarlet''s mood was consistently soured whenever Ang was mentioned, as she attributed the current state of their family to Ang. Though not explicitly stated, Scarlet''s words implied a sense of grievance towards Ang. Her efforts to provide sce transformed into persistent nagging as she spoke continuously.
"Mom, I am fatigued and desire to rest." Zacharias abruptly interjected.
Scarlet realized that she should not have focused on negative topics. She ceased speaking and carefully wrapped him in a quilt before departing from the hospital ward.
Zacharias observed Scarlet departing, attentively watching as the door to the ward closed gradually. Upon reflecting on her initial denial of the match results, he further solidified his belief in his
Zacharias considered contacting other hospitals to make arrangements for a kidney transnt without prior notification to Fanny. Curiously, he pondered the reason for herck ofmunication with him during this period.
At that moment, Zacharias'' cell phone rang on the bedside table. Upon answering the call, he heard Fanny''s voice on the other end. Neglecting the subject of kidney donation, he apprised her of Joseph''s absence and asked her to attend to Scarlet''s emotional welfare.
Upon receiving the news, Fanny was taken aback and inquired, "What happened to Joseph?"
Zacharias, however, did not provide further details, offering reassurance before concluding the conversation.
After she departed from the ward, Scarlet contacted James following thorough deliberation. "James, Joseph has been wrongly used by Ang and is currently detained. Ang''s whereabouts have not been determined. Can you visit Nortnd?" While adopting a conversational tone, Scarlet expressed her hope that James would adhere to her request.
Scarlet has experienced notable transformations following her encounter with George, leading to a heightened determination in her decision-making.
During the call, James inquired about Joseph''s situation. Scarlet embellished the story and suggested a visit to Nortnd. She
refused to resign herself to fate and was determined to make Ang yield. Her n was simple. She thought, if James goes to find Ang, Ang wouldn''tpletely ignore him.
After persistent persuasion, James eventually acquiesced, bringing relief to Scarlet as she departed from the hospital.
Upon arriving home, Scarlet encountered Fanny.
Fanny extended a warm greeting. "Mom, you have returned."
Despite experiencing a unique tenderness towards Fanny, Scarlet''s conflicting emotions surfaced when contemting Zacharias'' reluctance to donate a kidney. She thought, my words swayed
Zacharias'' thoughts, but it is also essential to address Fanny''s perspective and provide reassurance.
"Fanny, the match with Zacharias was unsessful, but James will help locate an alternative source for a kidney donation," Scarlet said.
Fanny blinked, feeling relieved. "It is fortunate that the match with Zacharias did not seed. He probably won''t be as negative as before."
"I have rmended that he coborate with the treatment. He ought to heed the advice." Scarlet let out a sigh. She was uncertain if it was the appropriate course of action, but she knew articting this would improve everyone''s emotional state.
Fanny observed Scarlet''s expression with a sense of uncertainty. She could not rid herself of the sensation that the match with
Zacharias had been sessful. Otherwise, Zacharias wouldn''t have abruptly contacted her earlier. Despite not answering the call. initially and Zacharias not mentioning the match when she returned the call, her intuition was typically urate. While she had faith in her intuition, she found herself unable to broach the subject of kidney donation on her own. Nevertheless, despite the potential sess of the match, Zacharias and Scarlet concealed it from her and misled her, leading to her anger. She thought the individual who previously pretended to be a suitable donor was Zacharias, and now he is also the one showing reluctance to donate a kidney.
Observing Fanny''sck of further inquiry, Scarlet exhaled a sigh of relief.
Upon assisting Scarlet into the room, Fanny suddenly realized and inquired casually, "Where is Joseph?"
Scarlet''s countenance transformed, and her eyes brimmed with bitterness as she said, "Ang was responsible for Joseph''s apprehension by the police. He will
be detained for several days."
Fanny appeared taken aback upon
hearing the news and promptly
inquired for further information,m asking, "What did Ang do?" She What did

experienced difort as she recalled Zacharias'' abrupt act of defending Ang in the past:
"Ang defamed Joseph and levied unfounded allegations against him, leading
to Joseph''s arrest by the police without a thorough investigation. In what manner could Joseph havemitted such an act? However, the most troubling aspect is that Ang went as far as having someone mimic his handwriting and paying
off an
individual to falsely identify Joseph. Even if the evidence is falsified, it was nted by that individual. What was the manner in which it came to rest on Joseph''s head? believe that this situation may be part of a conspiracy orchestrated by Ang. She is engaging, in suspicious behavior, attempting to falsely incriminate him." Scarlet expressed frustration when she raised this issue, feeling ack of validation from Zacharias and a persistent need to express her emotions.
Fanny attentively listened, experiencing increasing anxiety as

handling Ang. The decision for
Fanny to involve Kaydron in handling
Ang stemmed from a dual purpose, to create challenges for Ang and to instigate problems for
Kaydron. Regardless of Kaydron''s
ability to cause trouble for Ang,
Fanny would derive benefits from
such actions. When Scarlet mentions that Joseph''s directive to have someone ce stickers has been
discovered, Fanny experiences a sense of panic. She expressed concern that Kaydron might be apprehended and subsequently reveal her secrets.
Fanny made a concerted effort to quell the panic and soothe Scarlet. "Mom,
please don''t be sad or angry. It is detrimental to one''s health. Let us coborate to devise a strategy for rescuing Joseph. Or I could speak with Ang." The word served to providefort to Scarlet as well as to herself. Fanny
believed it was necessary to ensure that Kaydron was more cautious to avoid leaving any evidence of her instructions to him.
Scarlet was gently stroked on the chest by Fanny, who spoke soothingly. "You
are still thoughtful, Fanny."
"Mom, please don''t be angry. I will now converse with Ang to request Joseph''s release." Fanny''s statementscked persuasiveness. Despite not rising from her seat, her demeanor profoundly resonated with Scarlet, evoking a heartfelt
response.
Instead, Scarlet restrained her and providedfort. "It''s okay, Fanny, you need
not concern yourself with these matters. It is advisable to concentrate on
academic pursuits and prioritize maintaining good health. I have requested James to manage task."
Fanny experienced a slight sense of relief and silently indicated agreement. She
harbored thoughts but refrained from sharing them with Scarlet. After some time had passed, she returned to her
