Chapter 218 I’m Begging Your
When Scarlet arrived, Angela was lazily sunbathing on the balcony.
This luxurious studio apartment had everything one could need, making it as comfortable as being at home.
Having money was truly wonderful.
With a good mood and comfortable living arrangements, Angela’s injury healed quickly.
At that moment, Oliver came to inform her that Scarlet had arrived.
Upon hearing this, the smile faded from Angela’s face.
She couldn’t believe that someone as arrogant and unwilling to back down as Scarlet had actually come, all because of Zacharias,
Indeed, apart from Angela, any child in Scarlet’s eyes was held in high regard.
When Scarlet entered, she seemed a bit uneasy. Having learned from the previous encounter, she didn’t display the same arrogant attitude. Instead, she appeared somewhat gentler.
She was holding some things in her hands, and her gaze fell on Angela with a hint of concern. “Is your wound getting better?”
Angela sneered. “Let’s be honest here. Why bother being so hypocritical about our relationship?”
Scarlet’s expression stiffened. She was still somewhat displeased with Angela’s attitude and couldn’t help but say, “Angela, regardless of anything, I am still your mother. Can you please not speak to me with such a tone?”
Angela shrugged. “Then what tone should I use? Madam Scarlet, are you still unable to grasp the situation? I am no longer your daughter. Have you forgotten?”
The words came out without hesitation, leaving Scarlet visibly shaken. She struggled to hold back her frustration and managed a forced smile. “Angela, just say the word. I’ll do whatever I can to help.
Angela glanced at her casually. “You’ve got it wrong, as usual. You’re the one who came to me. Why do you act like I’m twisting your arm into doing something wrong?”

Scarlet’s face soured, but she tried to keep her cool. “Angela, please, I’m begging you. Save Zacharias. He’s still kind to you.”
Angela scoffed as her eyes filled with sarcasm. “Kind to me? Has anyone in the Kins Family ever treated me well? I made it crystal clear before that I have nothing to do with the Kins Family’s fate.”
“But you said if I came to beg you…” Scarlet’s face flushed as she stumbled over her words.
you’d agree to help Zacharias.”
Angela smiled. “Yes, I said I’d think about it… And isn’t this begging? Maybe life’s been too easy for you, and you don’t know what it’s like to plead with someone?”
Scarlet was irritated by her teasing and said desperately, “So what do you want? Do you me to kneel and beg you? We’ve lived as mother and daughter for a while. Even if things aren’t great for you now, it’s still better than being with Britney.”
That was the truth.

If it weren’t for their past experiences, she wouldn’t hold such deep resentment toward them. and willingly sacrifice herself for Fanny.
so diligently
Upon seeing Scarlet’s reaction, Angela chuckled. “But didn’t I care for all of you in the past? Hasn’t that repaid your supposed kindness to me? Without me, Zacharias might not even be alive today.”
Scarlet grew anxious. “Angela, will you help or not?”
“Here we go again…” Angela seemed detached, as if observing a spectacle. I’ve mentioned before that you lack the finesse to seek aid. If you seek my assistance, you must show respect instead of coercion. Otherwise, if I’m unwilling, I won’t be able to devise a viable solution for saving someone.”
Upon seeing Angela’s demeanor, Scarlet felt truly at a loss, prompting her to humbly inquire. “Tell me, what are your terms?”
“If you want me to save Zacharias, then you must remove Fanny from the Kins Family and have her household registered at Mike’s house,” Angela stated coldly and emphasized each word. “If you choose Fanny, then your son will face death.”
These words pierced Scarlet’s heart like a dagger.
She had mulled over countless scenarios, was prepared to tackle any challenge and willing to spend a hefty sum to save Zacharias. Yet, Angela’s condition caught her off guard.

Instinctively, she inquired, “How does this involve Fanny?”
As expected, it all boiled down to Fanny.

In Angela’s past life, she vividly remembered a time when she had tirelessly served the family, only to fall ill from exhaustion. Despite running a high fever and delirium, no one bothered to offer her even a sip of water.
Her illness was brushed off as mere theatrics, with no one acknowledging its seriousness.
Meanwhile, Fanny, who had a minor cold, received an abundance of care and attention.
At that time, Fanny was like a little princess and was regarded as the apple of everyone’s eyes.
Angela couldn’t understand why she deserved to be neglected just because she didn’t grow up around them from a young age, thus lacking emotional attachment.
So, this time, she wanted to see for herself what choice Scarlet would make between. Zacharias and Fanny.
People often fail to empathize until they experience pain themselves.
Angela’s eyes turned slightly cold, and she said sarcastically, “After all, Zacharias has been doting on her for so long. Doesn’t Fanny want to do something for her dear brother? It’s just at matter of status, nothing serious. Anyway, she’s very sensible and kind, I think she’ll agree.”
“Well…” Scarlet was somewhat hesitant. “Can we change the terms? Fanny hasn’t endured much hardship since childhood. If she goes back to the Lynch Family, she’ll be miserable.”
Angela didn’t waste any words and said coldly, “Fine, then let Zacharias wait for death!” This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Scarlet’s expression changed, and she immediately approached Angela. “No, Angela, don’t be so ruthless. He’s your brother…your blood brother. I’m begging you….
Angela stepped back with a hint of disdain in her eyes. “Don’t try pulling at heartstrings. We never shared any real bond. If you can’t let go of this, spare me the lectures about my lack of conscience. You’re just as selfish, so spare me the sanctimony about motherly love. It’s all just selfishness.”
Scarlet’s expression faltered. She felt unsure of how to respond.
She wanted to say more, but seeing Angela’s distant demeanor, words failed her.

Finally, all she could manage was a nod and pleaded, “Could I have some time to think this. over?”
Angela nodded, a faint smirk playing on her lips. “You have one day to think about it.”
Upon listening to Angela’s sarcastic tone, Scarlet felt deeply uncomfortable, but there wasn’t much she could do about it.
She left the hospital. When she squinted at the glaring sunlight, she felt a little dizzy. She nearly stumbled but was thankfully helped by a kind passerby.
Scarlet stumbled back home in a daze, and when she saw Fanny coming to greet her, she felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.
