Chapter 412 Completely Lost Her Mind As the phone call went through, it was immediately hung up. Just as they were about to try again, a call arrived from Michael.
The bodyguard handed the cell phone to Florence. After she impatiently jutted her chin, the phone was passed back to Christopher.
When he retrieved his phone, Christopher noticed the non the screen and immediately realized what Jonathan's words had meant earlier. He hadn't expected him to act so swiftly.
Although he felt worried and hesitant about taking the call, he had no choice but to answer it. Once the call went through, a string of furious roars sounded from the phone, leaving him frozen.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Scarlet gained consciousness to find only Joseph waiting by her side.
“Ah!” Jolted awake by a nightmare, Scarlet woke up drenched in sweat.
Joseph hurriedly wiped the sweat off her forehead. “Mom? Mom, are you okay? Do you feel better?” Fanny had filled him in about how Scarlet had been extremely agitated before she had been sedated, so he was too nervous to leave her to work and stayed by her bed instead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Scarlet did not seem to be completely conscious as she suddenly grabbed his hand and roared furiously, “Sanders! How dare you show up!” She tried to give him a slap, but he reacted quickly and dodged her hand while yelling, “Mom, it's me, Joseph!” His loud voice seemed to wake Scarlet from her daze.
1/5 Chapter 412 Completely Lost Her Mind “J-Joseph?” Her eyes grew large as she looked at him. When she got a clear look of him, the tension in her body dissipated and she dove into his arms as she wailed, “Joseph, you're back! Sanders is up to no good, he's trying to harm Zacharias!” Joseph felt a pang in his heart. He had feared the worst, and he only needed to hear a little to piece together the entire story.
“Mom, don’t worry, | won't let Zacharias donate his kidney,” he hastily comforted her.
However, Scarlet did not stop sobbing, tears rolling down her face. “But what if Sanders continues to convince Zacharias?” Joseph let out another sigh. “I will talk to Zacharias.” Despite that, they both knew deep down that persuading Zacharias was not as important; the most crucial issue at hand was to cure his illness.
“Why, why did it cto this?” Scarlet was not reassured by his words in the slightest. Instead, her cries grew even more sorrowful as she rammed the bed and hit her chest.
All of a sudden, her blows cto a halt, and as if suddenly regaining her senses, she yelled firmly, “That wretched Angela must be causing all this trouble!” Joseph's face darkened at the mention of Angela’s name.
Before he could reply, Scarlet yanked him and demanded, “Didn't | tell you to bring that wretched woman here to treat Zacharias and give Fanny a kidney? Why haven't you gone yet?” Joseph said, “Mom, I'm back now.” “Where is she? Where is that wretched woman?” Scarlet looked around 2/5 Chapter 412 Completely Lost Her Mind +5 Free Coins frantically as she scratched at the air. “Bring her here! | want to teach her a lesson!” When she attempted to confront Angela previously, she was not only mocked but also warned by the bodyguards surrounding Angela not to get too close. Scarlet still felt peeved upon reflecting on it now.
Joseph hurriedly went to reassure her in a helpless tone, “Mom, she doesn’t want to save Zacharias.” He had attempted to persuade her, but Angela was not as easy to talk to now compared to when she was in Riverdon. Moreover, she even brought Jonathan along with her when they met up, making it difficult for him to say much.
Although they were now in Northland, the foundation and background of the Kins Family still remained in Riverdon. Joseph was no stranger to Jonathan's influence in Riverdon. Therefore, with Jonathan by her side, Angela was not someone he dared to offend.
Scarlet burst with fury at Joseph's reply and cursed, “Do you want your brother to die, just like that Sanders boy? Why didn’t you just bring that woman here?” Joseph's expression immediately turned gloomy. He felt that Scarlet had completely lost her mind.
“Mom!” He released her and retreated, his gaze turning icy as he looked at the woman on the sick bed.
Frightened by his reaction, Scarlet did not dare to raise her voice any further and started mumbling under her breath as she climbed out of bed, “I want to see Zacharias, | want to see Zacharias.” Naturally, Joseph couldn't allow her to see Zacharias in her current state, so he firmly prevented her from leaving her bed. He attempted to reason 3/5 1 1 Chapter 412 Completely Lost Her Mind with Scarlet as he held her back.
“Mom, listen to me. No matter how much Christopher provokes Zacharias, and regardless of what Zacharias thinks, | assure you, | won't let him donate his kidney.” Scarlet stared at him intently and eventually softened under his determined look.
“One more thing! Joseph, you have to remember to teach Sanders a lesson.” Scarlet’s eyes burned with hatred as she recalled Christopher's previous words to her.
She was convinced that if he hadn't instigated Zacharias, Zacharias wouldn't have gotten to the point where he would consider donating a kidney to Fanny.
0 At the thought of Fanny, Scarlet felt a pang in her heart and added, “You and James must be more vigilant about the kidney.” Upon seeing that Scarlet was calmer and her speech was now clear and more organized, Joseph promised her repeatedly that he would do as she said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeanwhile, at the cafe in Jonathan's company, Michael did not stop berating Christopher as soon as he answered the call.
Florence listened gleefully and did not order Christopher to hang up, instead leaving him to his own devices.
Hence, he could only grit his teeth and endure the insulting looks from the crowd along with Michael's fury.
In the end, when Michael had finally finished scolding him, Christopher mumbled weakly, “Dad, | didn’t mean to cause trouble for Jonathan, I...” After the assault by Florence's men, his mouth ached with pain as he spoke, and his face burned, causing him to let out a soft groan against his 4/5 ddMMM Chapter 412 Completely Lost Her Mind will.
E 10:45 “I don’t care if you meant to or not!” Michael didn’t notice anything amiss. and threatened him sternly, “Stay away from Jonathan's bad side! If you do this again, I'll send you back to Riverdon!” Without waiting for Christopher to utter another word, he ended the call abruptly and left him listening to the dial tone.
Christopher felt like crying, but there were no tears to be shed. Terrified by Michael's warning to send him back to Riverdon, he fell into a dilemma, which was broken at the sound of Florence's scornful laugh.
“Weakling.” It was then that he remembered he wasn’t only being threatened by his father, but Florence as well. Even though he was being ridiculed by her, he dared not express his anger.
“Miss Shelton, my dad forbadefrom contacting Jonathan...” Christopher struggled to speak, suppressing the pain on his face.
After all, Jonathan had hung up without a word when he had called earlier, clearly indicating his stance.
Florence jeered in reply. “Huh? Do my words not hold as much weight as your dad's?” Christopher was intimidated by her threat, not only due to her warning and icy gaze, but also due to the bodyguard beside her who was flexing his fists.
Just as he was about to respond, a knock sounded on the door.
