After waiting for a while, Scarlet finally saw Joseph, who looked much more haggard and spiritless than before.

Upon seeing Joseph’s condition, Scarlet couldn’t help but tear up.

Joseph, noticing his mother outside, tried to muster some energy to comfort her. “Mom, I’m fine.”

Scarlet, unable to believe his words and seeing his lack of spirit, became furious and started cursing Angela, “How can you be fine? It’s all Angela’s fault. She caused you to be like this.”

Joseph didn’t argue.

Deep down, he almost agreed with Scarlet’s accusations.

He believed his current plight was indeed caused by Angela.

If only Angela had kept her promise to treat Zacharias, and if she hadn’t ignored Fanny’s illness, he wouldn’t have resorted to posting that paper. He never imagined that simply telling the truth on a piece of paper would get him accused of spreading rumors.

Angela’s manipulations were indeed cunning!

As he thought about how Angela had wronged him, Joseph clenched his teeth, tasting a faint bitterness in his mouth, and his eyes filled with gloom.

To prevent worrying Scarlet, he quickly looked down.

Scarlet, mistaking his silence for sorrow and despair, felt a surge of pity. “James is outside. Joseph, don’t worry. He will definitely find a way to help you! You’ll be out soon!”

Scarlet knew that even without bail, Joseph would only be detained for about ten days, but they couldn’t bear to see him suffer that long.

They were determined to get him released as soon as possible.

Joseph managed a rare smile. “I know.”
