Chapter 370 Offending The Unoffendable
Fanny turned her head and saw a Christopher in his mask and sunglasses. Just hearing his voice, she recognized him but couldn’t understand why he wore a mask and sunglasses. “Christopher? Why are you wearing a mask?” she asked.
Christopher replied, “Sorry, Fanny, there were other things, so I didn’t come to see you immediately. I wear a mask because my face is allergic.”
Upon hearing this, Fanny bit her lip and remained silent. I thought Christopher just discovered the news, but he’s already known I had been arrested long ago and has only come to see me now! He says there were other things to attend to. Does that mean what happens to me doesn’t matter to him? Thinking about this, Fanny became even more disappointed in Christopher.
Unaware of what was happening in Fanny’s mind, Christopher observed she didn’t say a word. He instantly continued, “Fanny, don’t worry. I will find a way to get you out.”
“Fanny, just wait. I will figure something out,” Joseph added.
Upon hearing their words, Fanny felt upset and asked, “So you’re not here to take me out now?”
Neither of them responded, and the three fell into silence.
Tears welled up in Fanny’s eyes instantly, and she anxiously grabbed Joseph’s arm. Joseph? Say something! You’re here to help me, right? I don’t want to stay here anymore. Although she was temporarily detained, the police did not mistreat her by starving or freezing her, but she didn’t want to stay there any longer! I want to get out!
Joseph deeply breathed and reassured her. “Fanny, calm down. Tell me what happened so I can help you.” Although Mr. Leofric did not explicitly mention it, upon hearing that Fanny could not be released on bail, he and Christopher harbored suspicions. Fanny must have offended someone she shouldn’t have.
After hearing Joseph’s words, Fanny hesitated momentarily before telling them about what she and Dylan had done. However, in her words, she is just an innocent person who has been deceived by Dylan.
Before Joseph and Christopher could say anything after listening to Fanny, Mr. Leofric came over to urge them. “You should leave now. It’s late at night. Whatever you have to say, say it tomorrow.”
The two reluctantly glanced at Fanny for a moment before leaving.
As for Fanny, without the previous excitement, she leaned against the iron railing and watched the backs of the two as they walked away.
During the night, Angela observed Yaxley during training and noticed he was constantly distracted. “Yaxley? What’s wrong with you?”
“Nothing.” Yaxley returned to his senses, shook his head, and focused on the topic.
When the two were about to leave after finishing their tasks, Angela still felt that Yaxley was acting strangely, as if something was bothering him. However, Yaxley didn’t want to say more, so she tactfully didn’t press for answers. As they walked out together, they were unexpectedly stopped by two people.
“Yaxley, Angela, Lara spoke with a gentle expression, a soft tone, and a smile.

The person standing beside her was Tyler. In contrast to Lara’s kind appearance, Tyler looked proud, and his eyes, although fixed on Yaxley, were full of hostility.
Yaxley lazily glanced at the two of them without saying a word.
Angela smiled at Lara and softly asked, “Is there something you need?”
With a kind smile, Lara said, “Well, tomorrow is my birthday, so I wanted to invite you all to come and celebrate. It’s not a big party, just a gathering of some young people.” Although she spoke to Angela, her gaze drifted towards Yaxley.
Angela noticed Lara’s expectations as she turned to look at Yaxley.
“Not interested,” Yaxley said casually, taking Angela’s hand and leading her away. “Ava is eager to meet up, Angela. Come with me.”
Lara’s expression froze upon hearing Yaxley’s words.
Tyler spoke up only after the two of them were far away. “Tsk, you insisted on inviting them, but they simply weren’t interested!”
During the previous welcome party, they had invited Yaxley and Angela, even though their intentions were all directed towards Yaxley. But neither had shown up. Lara had hoped that this time, using her birthday as an excuse. Yaxley and Angela would agree to come, but she didn’t expect Yaxley would show her no respect at all.
“Tsk, still staring? Yaxley did that on purpose! He’s just relying on the Collier Family’s status and looking down on you,” Tyler said sarcastically, furrowing his brow as he noticed Lara’s gaze fixed on Yaxley.
Lara looked at him coldly. “If you have nothing constructive to say, please keep silent.”
The tension between the two was palpable, but they exchanged only a few words without escalating into a fight.
Yaxley, who had walked away with Angela, soon released her hand. “Sorry, Angela. Those two were annoying. That’s why I pulled you away.”
Angela walked beside him. “It’s okay. I don’t feel like talking to them either.”
Lara and Tyler were both students at Northland Medical University. During the training session, they acted like they were in charge of everyone. Angela didn’t dislike their attitude but didn’t particularly like it
either.
Yaxley nodded, and then he asked, “Do you have other plans for later, Angela? Ava wants to meet you. She and Sophia are already outside.”
Angela shook her head. “No, I’ll go see them myself. She assumed Yaxley probably had other commitments, so she didn’t want to hold him up.
“Alright, I’ll have someone drive you there.”
Angela stopped him just as he was about to call the driver. Oliver was waiting outside the school gate, so there was no need to worry about transportation.

After saying goodbye. Angela contacted Ava and found out that she and Sophia were at a mall near Northland Medical University. She quickly had Oliver drive her to meet them.
“Angelal” When Angela exited the car, she heard Ava’s voice. She looked up to see Ava waving at her, with Sophia smiling beside her.
“I was about to come find you. Why are you out here waiting?” Angela walked towards them with a laugh.
Ava blinked and smiled. “We were just strolling near the entrance and decided to wait for you. You arrived quickly. We didn’t wait long.”
Sophia added, “Yes, we just got here. You’ve arrived. Let’s go inside and have a chat.”
Angela nodded, relieved to see both of them in good spirits. The three of them walked together, feeling at case. However, their conversation soon turned to Fanny,
“Hmph! Fanny deserves it! She dared to set up my brother. The police won’t go easy on her,” Ava said angrily.
Sophia pondered momentarily before saying, “However, it might not keep her locked up for long”
Angela agreed, “This should teach her a lesson.” She had always disapproved of Fanny’s behavior, especially since Fanny seemed to cause trouble for her deliberately. Now that Fanny had been arrested, she could finally have peace for a few days.
After discussing Fanny for a while, the three of them continued shopping.
Meanwhile, Fanny, who had been locked up for the whole night, caught sight of Yaxley,
“Yaxley?” Fanny was pleasantly surprised to see him. “Are you here to bail me out?”
