Chapter 478 Seek Someone’s Help
Previously, James had considered approaching Florence but was deterred by her dangerous reputation.
Now, however, a promising idea struck him, requiring confirmation of a suspicion. If correct, Florence might just cooperate with him.
Mulling over this, James stepped aside and called Hugh.
Upon connection, Hugh began discussing Fanny and Zacharias‘ hospital visit, but James redirected to inquire about Florence, Angela, and Jonathan.
Hugh, puzzled, asked, “I investigated this before; weren’t you disinterested? Why the change?”
James replied, “I need her help.”
Hugh, aware of whom he referred to, chuckled. “Florence helping you?”
“It’s not just help; it could be cooperation,” James clarified, cutting short further questioning, “Send me the information you gathered earlier, thanks.”
After receiving and swiftly reviewing the data, James formulated a plan.
“I have a way,” he assured Joseph, “If successful, you could be released today.”
Skeptical yet hopeful, Joseph asked, “Do you really have a solution?”
Eager to return to Riverdon and not miss Fanny’s wedding, his interest was piqued.
“Yes, there’s a tentative plan. Its feasibility is uncertain, but let me explain,” James responded, choosing to share his thoughts with Joseph, who would be ideal for executing the plan due to his available time and necessity in the strategy, potentially convincing Florence to expedite Joseph’s release.
Joseph’s eyes brightened, intently awaiting further details.
“Let me go to Flo…” James began, but was interrupted by a police officer entering to usher him out.
Halting mid–sentence to avoid revealing too much, he reassured Joseph, “Wait for good news. We’ll discuss more once you’re out.”
Left in confusion without the crucial information, Joseph could only watch as James departed.

James‘ confidence stemmed from the information Hugh provided, which matched his suspicions. Previously, he had followed Jonathan and Angela to persuade Angela to relent on Joseph’s matter.
However, he pondered why Florence was tracking Jonathan’s car that day, realizing she did so to meet him.
Initially, James assumed Florence wanted to discuss business with Jonathan.
Despite Angela’s naive attempt to block Florence, he expected Florence to teach her a lesson, but surprisingly, she refrained from reacting.
Upon reviewing the information, he discovered Florence was openly pursuing Jonathan, a married man. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
This revelation led James to consider a plan that might be feasible.
Upon seeing James return, Scarlet inquired, “Did you find a way?”
“Yes,” James responded, “Mom, I’ll take you home first. After sorting out Fanny and Joseph’s issues and finalizing our return to Riverdon, I’ll seek someone’s help.”
He intended to contact Florence but lacked her contact details.
However, he believed Fanny might have them or at least could connect with someone who did, based on previous findings that Florence had once taken Fanny out, which Hugh had investigated.
Hearing James‘ assertiveness, Scarlet didn’t press further, only emphasizing, “We must get Joseph out as soon as possible.”
“Of course,” affirmed James, “Once we get home, please follow instructions.”
Soon after, they returned home.

Following James‘ instructions, Scarlet proactively discussed the marriage with Christopher and inquired about the return to Riverdon with Fanny.
Fanny, seeing Scarlet’s softened stance, promptly responded, “I’ll follow your arrangement.”
Scarlet decisively declared, “We’ll return once Joseph is out.”
Fanny was taken aback, and even Zacharias nearby was slow to react.
“Can Joseph come out now?” Fanny inquired.
“I have a plan we can try,” James stated.

Joy and anticipation filled Fanny’s eyes. “That would be wonderful.”
“Alright, that’s settled then,” James concluded, then said to Fanny, “Come to my room. I need to talk to you.”
Summoned by James, Fanny felt nervous, her mind racing with doubts, fearing their visit to the private hospital with Zacharias might have been discovered.
In the living room, Zacharias was equally anxious, his gaze fixed on them as they entered the
room.
Inside the room, after entering, James gestured for Fanny to sit while he took a seat opposite her.
He stared at her, pondering over her agreement to undergo matching with Zacharias, especially since she had done so knowingly, leaving him feeling uneasy.
Even without hearing the details from Hugh, James could guess Fanny’s possible rationale.
Could she be unaware that losing a kidney would drastically shorten Zacharias‘ life?
Raised in their family’s affection, Fanny was adored and showered with love, especially by her brothers, who wished to give her everything best.
Yet, how could she be so indifferent about Zacharias‘ life?
His disappointment grew as he contemplated more, but he also considered that Fanny might have agreed to the matching to avoid upsetting Zacharias, hoping she wouldn’t actually accept his kidney even if the matching was successful.
Despite this hopeful thought, James couldn’t shake off his doubts and discomfort.
The room filled with heavy silence.
Fanny felt uneasy under James‘ intense gaze, breaking the silence by mustering the courage to ask, “James, what did you want to ask me?”
James snapped back to reality and deflected with, “I wanted to know if you really want to marry Christopher.”
He didn’t bring up Florence, puzzled by Fanny’s apprehensive look.
Instead, he chose to discuss Christopher and marriage, intending to soothe her emotions.
He didn’t want their cherished little princess to be hurt due to his assumptions.
Fanny breathed a sigh of relief and confidently responded, “James, of course, I really want to

marry Christopher!”
To reassure James, she smiled, “I’ve always liked Christopher, you know that.”
Seeing her simile, James suddenly thought of what Hugh had found about Kaydron.
Fanny had bailed out Kaydron and even spent nights at his place more than once.
He abruptly asked, “What’s going on with you and that Kaydron Reed?”
Fanny’s heart skipped a beat, her mind reeling as if struck by a heavy blow.
“I… James, how do you know about Kaydron?”
Could it be that Kaydron had shared the photos…
Fanny was too frightened to continue the thought.
She clenched her teeth tightly, her head bowed, and her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.
