Angela! Turn on your phone now. Don’t make me angry!”
‘Do you have to create such a huge scene before you’re willing to stop?”
James sent several messages but received no response.

Angela wouldn’t have dared cause such a commotion in the past, and James wondered what she
wanted this time.
James stared at the messages on his phone with a darkened gaze.
Meanwhile, Jessica was being questioned by the police. She was the one who reported the incident
and the last person to have seen Angela.
Through tears, Jessica explained, “I parted ways with Angela at noon. I returned to the dormitory, and
she said she would study at the library before her classes. She had classes in the seventh and eighth
periods. I waited for her after school, but she never showed up. Everyone had left, and when I asked
her classmates, they said Angela didn’t attend her afternoon classes.
“I’ve searched everywhere Angela usually goes. I even checked the library, but I couldn’t find her
anywhere. Her phone is also unreachable. Do you think Angela might be in trouble? Please, you have
to find her.”
Lately, there have been several cases of missing female college students reported in the news,
causing the public to be restless. Jessica’s mind was now filled with various thoughts, and she feared
something terrible might happen to Angela.
After all, Angela was incredibly beautiful. It was possible that someone may have targeted
her.
After the police finished questioning her, Jessica approached James and sobbed. “James, do you have
any news about Angela?”
“Perhaps she went somewhere to have fun and intentionally hid to avoid our scolding. You should go
back home first so that your parents don’t worry,” James comforted Jessica, not worried about Angela’s
disappearance. After all, she had done similar things in the past.
The last time Fanny got injured, Angela had instigated it out of fear of taking responsibility, deliberately
causing such a severe injury. This time, it was just another attempt for her to distance herself from the
Kins Family.

When Jessica heard his words, she looked at him in astonishment. Then, she became angry. “If it was
Fanny who went missing today, would you still be so calm?”
“Fanny wouldn’t do something so foolish.” James frowned. He was somewhat irritated by Jessica’s
words.
“So, in your opinion, Angela is an irresponsible person?”
James‘ face darkened. “This is my family matter, Jessica. You are just an outsider. I’ll have someone
drive you back.”
Hearing James‘ words, Jessica became furious. No wonder Angela wanted to move out. In such a
biased family, she must have been devastated!
This time, Jessica truly experienced the heartlessness and absurdity of the Kins Family.
Jessica sneered. “No thanks. I have my own car, and my parents care about me. They would never be
as cold–hearted and biased as you. I genuinely feel sorry for Angela to have a brother like you! You
don’t deserve to be her brother at all.” Such a person was not worthy of
Angela’s kindness. She knew Angela had spent a long time studying different recipes to ensure James
ate well since he was picky about his food. However, she felt it was indeed at waste of such genuine
care for such a person.
The pain was excruciating, a continuous surge of piercing agony.
Then, Angela heard faint voices around her.
“Thankfully, she was brought here carly. It’s cold now. I can’t imagine what would have happened if she
had suffered such severe injuries and was deliberately drenched with water, even being locked in the
bathroom overnight. I don’t know what deep grudge she had with whom, but the wounds on her body
are all aimed at fatal areas. Fortunately, she protected her head, but the injuries on her arm are
uncertain. I heard she is a medical student, right?”
“Yes.”
“After she recovers, it is recommended that she thoroughly examine her arm. Medical professionals are
most concerned about injuring their hands. Additionally, it would be best. for her to follow a light diet
and avoid spicy food for now.”

After the doctor left, Sebastian walked toward Jonathan. “Mr. Jonathan, the doctor has finished
examining Angela.”
Jonathan said, “Let Simon in.”
The next moment, the door was pushed open, and a man wearing a black hooded sweatshirt. entered.
He wore a mask that only revealed his eyes. He appeared slender and untamed, like a wild beast.
“Mr. Johnson.”
The dim yellow light fell on his face. He looked cold and wicked.
Jonathan slightly turned to the side and said, “Investigate this. Regardless of who it is, I want to know
the truth today.”
Simon lowered his gaze and replied, “Understood.” With that, he retreated as if he had never
appeared.
Angela didn’t have many enemies who could hate her enough to want her dead, but there were plenty
around him. This unjust disaster may be because of him.
Thinking about it, Jonathan turned around. He stared at Angela with his sharp gaze, already cold
expression became even colder.
and his
Angela slowly opened her eyes, feeling disoriented. Why am I seeing Jonathan? I can even hear his
voice. However, she didn’t stay awake for long before falling back asleep.
Her whole body was cold and aching. It was as if needles were pricking her. Every time she moved, it
felt like a knife was stabbing, causing excruciating pain.
“Sebastian, take care of her.”
Sebastian opened his mouth and glanced outside the door. However, he said nothing and simply
nodded in response.
Jonathan turned his wheelchair and silently left the hospital room.
“Jonathan…”
As Jonathan exited the room, Christopher’s expression changed, revealing a hint of fear. Het nervously
stood up and kept his head down to avoid eye contact.
Although Jonathan was in a wheelchair, he wore a black knitted sweater and had fair skin. He
resembled a proud white plum blossom on a winter night, standing alone and independent,

facing the darkness with a cold and distant demeanor. There was no youthful vibe on him. but rather a
restrained demeanor that had experienced countless trials.
Christopher waited for a few seconds but didn’t hear Jonathan speak. His face grew paler, and his
body tensed up even more.
Jonathan’s expression remained unchanged as he asked, “Don’t you have anything to say?”
Under the cover of the night. Christopher raised his head. His head was pounding, and his voice
sounded strained as he spoke. “Jonathan…”
“You were the last one Angela called. Why didn’t you answer it?” Jonathan’s tone was calm, but it
inexplicably filled Christopher with fear.
Taking a deep breath, Christopher felt himself freezing. “I was in a business meeting at the time. I didn’t
know it was a call for help. If I had known, I would have answered her call.” He never expected things
to escalate to this point. He thought it was all just a trick by Angela, just like James had said.
Just now, he heard the doctor’s words. Angela was seriously injured and had several broken bones.
When she was found, there was a pool of blood beneath her. Her body was cold, and her breathing
was weak. If they had arrived any later, she would have been dead.
She would either bleed to death or freeze to death.
Jonathan rubbed the cold armrest of his wheelchair and said, “Since you despise Angela much, I’ll help
you end your engagement with her. I’ll talk to Grandpa about it and change it to Fanny. I hope you
won’t regret it.”
