Chapter 437 A Successful Match
Zacharias approached Joseph to inquire about the results of the matching. He was aware that this point should have revealed the results of the matching process between himself and Fanny.
However, despite seeking clarification from the doctor, he was not furnished with any information.
Before Zacharias could receive the results from Joseph, the police unexpectedly entered his hospital ward and subsequently took Joseph away. Zacharias was surprised by Joseph’s accusations against Angela. Despite harboring skepticism, the preponderance of evidence was compelling, compelling him to acknowledge the integrity of the situation.
Upon Joseph’s departure, Zacharias remained in silence for an extended period. After his eyes had dried from staring blankly, he eventually recollected to get in touch with Angela. Despite Zacharias overhearing the police questioning Angela’s forgiveness towards Joseph, he still maintained a glimmer of hope for an alternative resolution.
Following the dialing of the number, an extended period elapsed with no response, leading to a profound sense of disappointment in Zacharias. “It seems… we’ve been blocked.” He suddenly recalled Joseph’s mention of Angela having blocked their phone numbers. At that moment, Joseph also commented that Angela displayed genuine heartlessness.
Steadying his slightly dizzy head, Zacharias opted against further exploration of the issue. He thought, Joseph had committed a wrongdoing and should be temporarily detained. Hopefully, he will acquire

knowledge from this experience.
After recollecting that Angela had blocked him, Zacharias harbored no inclination to exert further effort. After a brief moment of contemplation, he realized that he could not prolong the wait any further. Consequently, he made the decision to revisit the matching results.
Zacharias encountered Gregory once more.
“Back again?” Gregory’s brows furrowed slightly upon sighting Zacharias. “Didn’t I tell you the results are with Joseph? He desires for us to maintain confidentiality. It is advisable to inquire with him regarding the matter.” Given their professional relationship, he and Joseph were colleagues. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that he would not have violated the commitment upon receiving instructions from Joseph.
Zacharias said with a bowed head. “Joseph had been taken away.”
Upon receiving this information, Gregory was surprised. He had been preoccupied previously and had not yet been informed about Joseph’s circumstances. “By whom?” he inquired.
Zacharias provided a brief explanation and subsequently opted not to elaborate further. Instead, he inquired once more about the matching results.
“I am uncertain about the results,” Gregory replied, unwilling to provide additional information. Alternatively, he proposed. “In case Joseph is unavailable, you may consider consulting your mother. She might be aware.”

Zacharias doubted Gregory’s lack of awareness regarding the results. He had a vague suspicion that Gregory refrained from. informing him due to the success of the match. “Thank you, Dr. Gregory. I won’t bother you any longer,” he stated before promptly leaving the office without any further remarks.
Instead of engaging with Scarlet, Zacharias endeavored to communicate with Fanny. Zacharias consciously avoided potential conflict and was mindful of Scarlet’s sentiments regarding their potential match. He thought, so be it, then. Additionally, I intend to relocate to another medical facility for the kidney transplant procedure alongside Fanny. Nevertheless, he has not yet succeeded in contacting Fanny via cell phone.
Meanwhile, Fanny, engrossed with Kaydron, inadvertently muted her phone to avoid any interruptions. They were not elsewhere. Instead, they were at Kaydron’s residence. After Kaydron had fallen asleep, Fanny, with a look of disgust, left the bed and observed his phone on the bedside table. She covertly brought it with her to the bathroom. She sought to ascertain the whereabouts of the photo. However, the phone was secured with a password, impeding her ability to retrieve them. Feeling frustrated, Fanny returned the phone and departed from Kaydron’s residence. Upon her departure, she observed the missed calls from Zacharias and promptly contemplated the forthcoming kidney donation.

In recent days, Fanny has been unable to visit the hospital due to various reasons. However, her thoughts have been preoccupied with her compatibility with Zacharias. Despite her inability to openly express her desire for a successful match, she was keen to locate a compatible kidney.

Joseph had not succeeded in contacting Fanny before Scarlet. approached him.
“Zac, where is Joseph? What is the reason for his absence from either your place or the office?” Scarlet’s complexion was no longer pale as it had been upon waking up. After a period of rest, her condition significantly improved.
Zacharias tensed up instinctively, displaying uncertainty when formulating a response.
Upon observing his changed expression, Scarlet promptly detected an issue and inquired urgently, “What is the matter? Where can Joseph be located?”
Zacharias sighed with a somber expression and replied, “Mom, Joseph has been apprehended by the police.”
Scarlet’s expression underwent an immediate change. “What? The police! How could Joseph be taken when he was fine?” Before Zacharias could respond, she anxiously exclaimed. “Was it Angela who caused this? She has consistently harbored animosity towards our family. If something happened to Joseph, it must be her responsibility.”
Zacharias was momentarily rendered speechless. He maintained silence as Scarlet persisted in articulating her anger and frustration, harboring a desire to confront Angela and seek retribution. She was using profane language in an extremely disagreeable manner.
Initially, Zacharias harbored no intention of speaking out. However, as Scarlet’s insults escalated in inoffensiveness and

became increasingly intolerable, he quietly uttered. “Mother, Joseph erred unintentionally.”
It had been a while since Joseph was taken away by the police, causing Zacharias‘ emotions to transition from shock and disbelief to a state of composure and rationality. Despite Angela’s
involvement in the incident, he was aware that it was not her fault. On the contrary, Angela was portrayed as the victim, while Joseph, depicted as the wrongdoer, was deemed deserving of punishment. and justified in being taken away.
“What? Zacharias, what are you saying?” Scarlet gazed at Zacharias with a look of disbelief as though she had just been confronted with something incredulous and inquired, “Are you implying that it is Joseph’s responsibility? Have we, as a family, ever mistreated you, Zacharias? Has Joseph recently been taking your well–being into consideration in all matters? How could such hurtful words be directed towards Joseph? Will you align yourself with Angela, akin to a traitor?”
Under the circumstances of being angrily scolded and questioned by Scarlet, Zacharias experienced feelings of discomfort and confusion, leading to an irregular heart rate. His respiration rate increased, and he struggled to inhale air. His complexion paled while he clarified. “I did not intend it in that manner. I… *gasps*.” He experienced difficulty in breathing, resembling symptoms of an asthma attack, accompanied by trembling and convulsions, presenting a distressing and alarming sight.
Scarlet was frightened by the situation, prompting her to move closer to offer comfort. “Don’t be fearful. I shouldn’t have made those statements. I was momentarily disoriented due to the intense

emotions of the situation.” Her excessive anger led her to speak impulsively, resulting in subsequent regret. However, despite her comforting words, Zacharias remained unaffected as he continued to convulse and shake uncontrollably, with what seemed to be saliva dripping from his mouth.
Scarlet became distressed and promptly summoned a doctor.
When the doctor arrived, he promptly administered emergency treatment to Zacharias, including injections, and provided physical comfort before proceeding with an examination.
The doctor instructed Scarlet to leave the room, after which she waited outside, experiencing a blend of anger and regret as she paced back and forth.
Shortly thereafter, a nurse emerged and inquired about the situation. “Why did the patient suddenly become agitated?”

Scarlet hesitated while expressing. “It was simply a minor disagreement. I am uncertain about the reason for his sudden and abrupt reaction. Is he alright?” She had not yet determined the reason for Joseph’s removal by the police. The situation escalated as a result of the disagreement with Zacharias regarding whether Angela was responsible for it.
The idea of Zacharias advocating for Angela caused Scarlet to experience discomfort.
