Angela, with a lazy tone, remarked, “I missed that,” her eyes indifferent, fixed on James, whose chest swelled with anger,fists clenched. His expression hardened-a striking contrast. Amidst the flood of words, a hint of regret lingered.
Impulsive words spilled out, but now, James had other matters to discuss. Did Angela know who pressured Joseph? He neededanswers. He sighed heavily, pondering, sinking into his chair. “Angela, | acted impulsively earlier. Let’s talk.”
Angela eyed him suspiciously but took a seat, awaiting his next words. James, somewhat relieved, changed his tone. “If you trulydon’t know who’s targeting Joseph, it’s fine. I'll investigate. But you still need to meet Zacharias.”

“What do you mean, Angela?” James’ face twisted in anger as he pointed a finger at Angela. Though separated by a table,James couldn't physically reach Angela. Still, the two individuals standing behind her subtly moved a step forward in response tohis actions, ready to intervene at any moment.
Tension hung in the air, and James noticed the threat from the two individuals. After hesitating for a moment, he retracted hisfinger. Angela paid no heed to his actions and kindly responded to his question.
“I'm telling you, | have no brothers.” James’ expression darkened, thinking Angela was upset about the recent conflict betweenher, Joseph, and Zacharias in Northland. Through gritted teeth, he coldly stated, “What about me? | am your brother, too.”
