Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self

Chapter 375 As Fate Would Have It

Fanny and Christopher were rushing to the hospital when Angela also received a call from Joseph.

Joseph asked her to treat Zacharias and stabilize his condition. Without hesitation, she promptly refused. The last time I treated Zacharias, he accused me of mistreating Fanny. Why should I bother treating someone who will only cause me trouble? Furthermore, despite only treating Zacharias twice since his arrival in the capital, she was well aware of his current condition. Even if she chose not to go, his life could still be sustained for the time being.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Joseph informed Fanny that she could visit. He observed that Zacharias was not faring well. He considered having Angela come to attend to Zacharias’s needs. Surprisingly, Angela flatly refused. Not only did Angela decisively decline, but she also did not offer any explanation. As he was about to inquire further, he heard the dial tone on the phone. “Angela!” Joseph’s expression immediately darkened. He knew Angela couldn’t possibly have good intentions. Despite agreeing to treat Zacharias before, she was now reneging on her word, which greatly displeased him. At that moment, Joseph had already forgotten that without Angela, Zacharias might have lost his life long ago. With a look of disdain in his eyes, Joseph paced restlessly before finally gritting his teeth and entering Zacharias’s ward.

Upon noticing Joseph’s solemn expression, Zacharias made a knowing remark. “She turned you down, didn’t she?”

“You’re right. She hung up on me outright!” Joseph replied, feeling disheartened and annoyed.

However, Zacharias calmly responded. “It’s for the best.

Glancing at Zacharias, Joseph sighed and decided not to mention Angela any further. “Fanny will be visiting later, and if she sees you looking so frail, she will undoubtedly worry,” Joseph remarked as he approached and sat beside Zacharias’s bedside. Finally able to take a moment to rest, Joseph sat down, alleviating his fatigue.

Initially indifferent, Zacharias furrowed his brow upon hearing that Fanny would be concerned. Joseph believed Zacharias was furrowing his brow to prevent Fanny from worrying, but only Zacharias knew the actual reason behind his furrowed brow. He was frowning because he couldn’t bear the thought of Fanny worrying about him. Even before arriving in the Northland, he had realized that despite his illness, he typically made sound decisions in most matters, except when it concerned their beloved sister, Fanny. His judgment would falter when it concerned her. During his near–death experience, he had a moment of clarity and saw many things. As a result, he believed his mind was now clear, and he wouldn’t make the same mistakes again. Yet, just one visit from Fanny, and he had once again hurt Angela with his words. Subsequently, he acknowledged his error, but he was powerless to resist. He thought to himself, this must be fate as it has it. Although I don’t comprehend why all this is happening. I can’t help but follow the will of destiny to see
