Chapter 401 Stirring Up Trouble

Angela, after thinking things through, asserted, “I’ll handle any further contact from Joseph.”

The mere thought of reaching out to Joseph turned Angela’s stomach.

Jonathan, not one to argue, chimed in, “Mind if I tag along when you meet him?”

His request took her by surprise, and while she was hesitating, he acknowledged, “I’m concerned he might bully you.”

A faint blush colored Angela’s checks and cars as she subtly nodded.

As the night wore on, Joseph returned to the hospital and found Christopher in Zacharias‘ room. Furrowing his brow, he realized that Christopher couldn’t facilitate contact with Jonathan although he was Jonathan’s younger brother.
