Chapter 476 Cunning Tactics

James took Scarlet to the detention center.

After waiting for a while, Scarlet finally saw Joseph, who looked much more haggard and spiritless than before.

Upon seeing Joseph’s condition, Scarlet couldn’t help but tear up.

Joseph, noticing his mother outside, tried to muster some energy to comfort her. “Mom, I’m fine.”

Scarlet, unable to believe his words and seeing his lack of spirit, became furious and started cursing Angela, “How can you be fine? It’s all Angela’s fault. She caused you to be like this.”

Joseph didn’t argue.

Deep down, he almost agreed with Scarlet’s accusations.

He believed his current plight was indeed caused by Angela.

If only Angela had kept her promise to treat Zacharias, and if she hadn’t ignored Fanny’s illness, he wouldn’t have resorted to posting that paper. He never imagined that simply telling the truth on a piece of paper would get him accused of spreading rumors.
