Chapter 3

George couldn’t help but frown. “Angela, be careful with your attitude.” Angela was taken aback fora moment, then smiled and said, “Is my attitude not satisfactory, Mr. Kins?” Scarlet’s face turnedsour, and she said, “Angela, that’s your father. How can you speak to him like that?” The third sonZacharias sneered, “What’s wrong? Angela, are you throwing a tantrum again, acting like a spoiledprincess? Look at how indulged you are. Now, you’ve even disowned your own parents. If you leavethe Kins Family, you’re nothing.” “Yes, you’re right.”Angela lay back down and started dismissing them. “If you have nothing else to say, please leave. Ineed to rest. Goodbye.” She protected Fanny and tried to escape but was beaten up by the thugseven more. She was still lying in the hospital while they came to seek justice for Fanny, who wasstanding there unharmed. She was reliving her past life. She hadn’t even been discharged from thehospital, and they targeted her chance at the Brundelian speech. Angela didn’t want to haveanything to do with these hideous creatures. She just wanted them to leave as soon as possible.Everyone frowned, and Samuel exploded. “Angela, are you out of your mind? Do you know whatyou’re saying? You actually want to kick us out. Who do you think you are?” Angela turned away,refusing to communicate with them any further. In this lifetime, she wouldn’t let Fanny have thechance to attend that speech competition. Not a chance in hell. Fanny glanced up slightly, her gazesweeping over Angela’s back, with a hint of confusion in her eyes. Then, she smiled. It seems thatAngela isn’t that foolish after all. The Kinses were upset. Seeing that Angela was unresponsive,they said a few harsh words and left. The door was slammed shut, making a loud noise that evencaused a piece of wall to peel off. It could be imagined how angry the Kins Family members were atthis moment. As the door closed, Angela opened her eyes. Her heart was calm at this moment. Itturned out that not yearning for the warmth of family and no longer being a sycophant could be sosatisfying. In her previous life, she was too arrogant, always thinking that as long as she wassensible enough and excellent enough, she could integrate into this family. But what did she get inreturn?She had done her utmost for the Kins Family. Since I have a chance to start over, I need to live adifferent life and not repeat the same mistakes. The door was pushed open again, and Angelanovelbin

impatiently turned to look at the person coming in, Joseph, who had just left and returned. Hewalked to the bedside and said to Angela, “Angela, don’t be so stubborn. It shouldn’t be so difficultto apologize to Fanny and promise that you won’t do such things again. As long as you do that, youwill still be seen favorably by everyone, and Mom and Dad won’t ignore you.” But the only responseJoseph received was silence. Angela closed her eyes and didn’t want to talk to him. Joseph sighedand said, “Rest well. I’m leaving.” The door was closed again. After all the commotion, Angela felt abit thirsty and got up to find some water to drink. The hospital corridor was filled with all kinds ofpeople. During this period, there was no distinction between outpatient and inpatient departments inthe hospital, and the space was limited. It was not uncommon for several people to share a ward.After getting some cold water from the water dispenser in the corner, Angela took a few big sips andfelt much better. She then got some hot water and was about to leave when she turned around andsaw a man sitting in a wheelchair behind her. The man had deep facial features and was dressed ina neatly tailored shirt. His sleeves were casually rolled up, revealing his long and fair wrists. Even ina wheelchair, his noble and cold temperament couldn’t be hidden. “Hello, Jonathan,” Angelastammered as she greeted him. Upon hearing Angela’s voice, Jonathan, with his ink-colored eyes,raised his gaze and looked at her. “Hmm?” “I am Angela. We met at the Sanders Residencebefore,” Angela said, feeling pressured under Jonathan’s intimidating gaze, struggling to speakclearly.Angela had seen him twice before. He was Christopher’s half-brother. To be precise, she was veryconcerned about anything related to Christopher. It was rumored that Jonathan had suffered from achronic illness since childhood, but he had exceptional talent in business. He held the fate of theSanders Family in his hands, so he had a supreme position in the family. Although he was theeldest son of the Sanders Family, he didn’t bear the Sanders surname for some unknown reason.And most importantly, Jonathan would pass away at a young age due to illness in two years. At thatthought, Angela’s heart skipped a beat, and she glanced at Jonathan’s almost perfect profile, seeingcomplexity in his eyes. Due to her previous life, Angela was completely devoted to her family andhad no idea when Jonathan passed away. Later, when she heard about it, she couldn’t help but feelregretful for a while. Jonathan faintly responded, “A friend of Christopher from the Kins Family?”

Angela nodded hesitantly, somewhat surprised that he knew. “Yes…” Although the man had anexceptionally handsome appearance, his eyes were too cold, emitting a chilling aura. Angela feltuneasy, unconsciously gripping the cup in her hand. In her previous life, she had fallen forChristopher and pursued him relentlessly, and almost everyone knew about it. During the two visitsto his family, she tried to win their favor by being overly accommodating and flattering.She thought she had done well. But later, she found out that they thought she was a joke. Theymocked her behind her back, saying she lacked self-respect as a girl, chasing after a man like that,being frivolous and lowly. Glancing at the water dispenser, then at Jonathan’s wheelchair, Angelakindly took the cup from Jonathan’s hand and got some water for him. Jonathan held the cup in hishand, his narrow eyes turning slightly as he calmly said, “You don’t need to please me; I have nosay Christopher’s affairs.”
