It proved to be quite a challenge. James was occupied with business negotiations, Joseph was undergoing surgery, and Zacharias was too weak to handle the labor involved.
He was the only one available to take care of it.
When he received Joseph’s call, he took a leave of absence from school and rushed to the hospital.
However, upon arrival, there was no sign of anyone.
Angela must have deliberately done this!
“Samuel, have you
lost your
mind? Since when do I need your permission to be discharged? What amount of alcohol have you consumed to reach such an astonishing level of arrogance?” Angela sneered.
“You…”
“What? Have you gone deaf or lost your hearing? I said it last time that I will remove my name from the Kins Family registry and sever all ties with you. Your brain and ears are useless, beyond repair. You should start over.”
Take me home? For what?
Last time, she nearly faced a fatal beating, and Samuel stood by, observing with cold. detachment.
Upon hearing her words, Samuel felt his anger rise instantly.
He angrily retorted, “Angela, you truly don’t know how to appreciate kindness! Our family has treated you well all these years, but I never expected you to become such an ungrateful person. Not only do you constantly cause trouble, but you also take advantage of others‘ kindness!”
Angela moved her phone away, listening to his accusations, her smile becoming even more mocking.
Treated me well? Is he referring to wearing worn–out clothes laundered until they turn white, sleeping on a broken and frigid bed, and enduring bone–chilling cold in a cramped storage room qualify as good
treatment?
“Today, Fanny personally cooked for you to welcome you back from the hospital. She worked

tirelessly all morning. Is this how you appreciate someone’s sincere efforts?” Samuel frowned, feeling that Fanny’s efforts were not valued.

Normally, they would never let Fanny cook. It was only because she insisted on cooking to welcome Angela that they agreed.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have brought Angela home on Fanny’s special day, causing such a chaotic and unpleasant atmosphere and ruining the mood.
“The food she cooked?” Angela scoffed, not hiding the sarcasm in her tone. “I dare not even taste the ‘delicious‘ foods she made. I’m afraid I’ll be poisoned. You and your family can enjoy it.”
In her previous life, she was always busy cooking for them. Fanny never had the chance to cook. Occasionally, she tried a few times, but the food was simply terrible.
Once, Fanny claimed to have baked a cake for her. Angela wanted to please them, so she forced herself to eat it all.
As a result, she had stomach pain and diarrhea that night. She felt completely weak. She had to drag herself to the landline and call for emergency help. In the end, she stayed in the hospital for several days.
But not a single person believed that Fanny had tampered with the cake. They even blamed her for having poor health and wasting money on medical expenses.
Upon thinking back to the past, Angela felt even more disheartened.
“What right do you have to criticize what Fanny has made? What Fanny makes is a thousand times better than what you make!” Samuel was completely enraged.
rolled her eyes. “If it’s so delicious, then eat more. I’ll contact the crematorium for you and arrange your funeral. You don’t need to thank me.”
After saying that, Angela abruptly hung up the phone.
Not one to flatter, but retaliating with full force, it was indeed a joyous day for her.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar deep voice coming from downstairs.
Angela hurriedly went downstairs to see a man in a black hoodie pushing Jonathan into the living room.
Upon hearing her footsteps running downstairs, Jonathan looked up at her and said softly, “Take it easy: your body has just recovered.”

“The arrangements have been made. We will go out later. Someone will pick up Uncle Donald and the others and take them to the Laurel Hotel to discuss the wedding.” Jonathan paused for a moment and spoke casually, “You haven’t forgotten, have you?”
Wedding?
Angela suddenly widened her eyes. She was the one about to get engaged, and the feeling in her heart suddenly became strange.
“No… I haven’t forgotten.” She coughed and stammered, “Jonathan, isn’t it a bit rushed to discuss the wedding today?”
Angela didn’t expect to discuss the wedding immediately after being discharged from the hospital, which essentially meant on the same day.
So, does that mean Jonathan and I will be getting our marriage certificate in the next few days?
Upon looking at her standing obediently, her innocent and confused face, Jonathan suddenly found it particularly interesting.
He chuckled lightly and said leisurely, “My grandpa and my dad checked the almanac. Today is an auspicious day, where wishes come true, and success comes easily.”
Angela turned on her phone and glanced at the calendar. It was a really good day, suitable for traveling, praying for blessings, and getting engaged.
Upon seeing the words ‘getting engaged‘ on the calendar, Angela’s fair earlobes gradually turned crimson. “It really is a good day.”
Jonathan looked at Angela’s clothes, running his hands up and down, and said, “Go upstairs and change into a new outfit.”
Angela felt a bit nervous. Although she had lived for many years, she had never been married and had always been alone in her previous life.
Whatever Jonathan said now, she would do it.
Angela nodded and glanced at her inexpensive clothes, which didn’t cost more than six dollars in total.
This would definitely embarrass Jonathan.
Understanding his intention, Angela went upstairs to change her clothes. She could sacrifice. her own image but not Jonathan’s!

Jonathan looked at May, who immediately understood and followed Angela upstairs to help..
Downstairs, Jonathan stayed in the living room. Sebastian handed him two long lists, saying, “Master Jonathan, these are the gift lists prepared by the two elders.”
Jonathan raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why are there two lists?”
Sebastian looked conflicted and said, “They were not satisfied with each other’s gift lists, so they each made their own, saying they would give separately.”
Jonathan rubbed his temples with a headache.
Meanwhile, at the Kins Residence.
In the living room, Fanny was wearing the new dress she had just received as a birthday gift from James. She twirled happily in front of her family, showcasing the exquisite design and the youthful beauty of her figure.
She stopped and looked at them with anticipation on her small face, smilingly asking, “How does this dress look?”
Scarlet smiled and looked at her precious daughter, leading the praise, “Of course it looks beautiful! You’re so cute and pretty. You look good in any dress!”
Other people naturally followed suit, with James indulgently saying, “Fanny, whatever style of dress you like, I will buy it for you. Just tell me.”
“I don’t need so many dresses. What I really want is for our family to always be happy together, Fanny said, coming over and linking her arm with his, her smile radiant.
Upon hearing these words, everyone suddenly felt that she was sensible.
James was satisfied and relieved. Suddenly, he remembered something and snorted coldly, “Fanny is sensible, unlike that troublemaker…”
“James, let’s not mention her,” Samuel said, even more dissatisfied, still remembering the phone call earlier. “Fanny remembered her on her birthday today, but that heartless. person didn’t come. Disgusting!”
When will Angela be as obedient as Fanny? Samuel thought about Angela’s aggressive tone on the phone and felt a bit uncomfortable for some reason.
Upon seeing that the atmosphere was about to turn gloomy, Zacharias took a small gift box

from the nearby table and placed it in Fanny’s hands.
“Fanny, today is your birthday. You’re twenty years old now, a grown–up. I had someone bring you a necklace from abroad. Take a look and see if you like it.”
“Oh my goodness, this necklace is absolutely stunning, exclaimed Fanny with delight as she opened the box. It was truly a delightful surprise. The necklace was a new design that had been featured in a fashion magazine, making it both expensive and difficult to find. The fact that she was able to acquire it showed Zacharias thoughtfulness. Fanny expressed her gratitude by saying. “Thank you, Zacharias. I will definitely wear it often in the future.”
After expressing her gratitude, Fanny noticed another gift box placed beside Zacharias.
Curiosity piqued, Fanny inquired, “Zacharias, what is inside that box??
