Joseph’s dissatisfaction with Angela was palpable. Fanny swiftly pocketed her phone, resisting the urge to confront Joseph immediately. Instead, she worked to compose herself, masking her previous panic behind a calm exterior. She connected the dots as she processed the situation: the photo and text message were both from Kaydron! She confirmed her suspicion through the outgoing call records and realized it was the same number. Even the missed call had been made by Kaydron using her phone that morning. It dawned on her–he was threatening her. Kaydron had taken indecent photos of her the previous night, intending to use them as leverage.

A shiver ran down Fanny’s spine, her nerves on edge as she processed the situation. Initially dismissing the encounter as a mere encounter with a disgusting stray dog, she now realizes that the stray dog was threatening her. Determined not to let him get away with it, she refused to take the blame for the previous night’s incident, knowing it was Kaydron’s doing. Despite shifting the blame onto Angela, she felt no guilt–it was a necessary measure to protect herself.

Angela deserved it. I must not let him get away with it! she thought.

She needed Joseph to help her confront Angela, make her pay the price, and endure her torment.

Joseph, oblivious to the situation, could not sense anything amiss with Fanny except her visibly shaking body. He said apologetically, “Fanny, don’t worry. I will help you uncover the truth. If it was her, our family would make her pay and compensate you.”

Joseph hurried to verify the situation with Angela. After all, Fanny had

mentioned her, even though she did not mention much about the man. As Joseph tried calling, Fanny finally composed herself.

Joseph, thank you. But she wouldn’t dare answer your call at a time like this Joseph. Fanny sobbed, wiping away tears before continuing, “That man said Angela paid him. That’s why he…”

Fanny’s voice trailed off towards the end, but the implication was clear. Joseph stood behind her, feeling immense sorrow. He believed Fanny without question and moved to comfort her, “Fanny, trust me, I will seek justice for you!”

Fanny hid her resentment, replacing it with a look of innocence as she gazed at him.
