Chapter 25 Donald And His Family
The military zone is situated near the residential area of Harry Holeson High. It
only took a ten-minute ride on an electric scooter to reach there.
It felt lik: ages since she last set foot in this place. After returning to the Kins
Family in her previous life. Angela never visited again. As she gazed at those
old-style buildings, her memories had become somewhat hazy.
Donald lived on the fifth floor of the third row in a three-bedroom apartment.
Queenie rummaged through her bag and realized that she had forgotten to bring
the keys when she hurriedly left home. So, she pressed the doorbell. The
doorbell rang for a while, and then a middle-aged man appeared in her line of
sight. “Angela, come in quickly!”
When Donald saw Angela, joy was evident in his eyes. It was wonderful that she
came to live here.
Angela smiled. “Uncle Donald.”
At that moment, a middle-aged woman walked out of the living room. When she
saw Angela, her eyes instantly turned red. “Angela, I heard that you were injured
and hospitalized recently. Come and let me take a look. Where did you get hurt?”
Hecate pulled Angela into the living room and checked her injuries. When Hecate
saw the clear scar on Angela’s forehead, her eyes filled with heartache.
Girls naturally care about their appearance. Having such a long scar affects her
looks. She
Hecate wiped away a tear and said with concern. “Is this how your family treats
you? They actually kicked you out without any reason. Samuel is also
despicable. He vandalized the place where you are currently living. He’s trying to
make your life a living hell.”
“What? That’s too much” Donald clenched his fists in anger. He knew about
Angela being kicked out, but he had no idea about their belongings being
destroyed.
“I just heard about it at the store. It was done by Samuel. He did it for Fanny
because they wanted to snatch Angela’s Brundelian speech opportunity”
The Kins Family treated the fake heiress Fanny as a treasure, but they were not
close to their own daughter. Donald knew that about them. They used to have
minor conflicts, but this time, they went too far. Donald was furious, but he still
comforted Angela softly, “Angela, don’t be afraid. From now on, just live
peacefully with me. As long as we are here, the Kins Family won’t dare to come
looking for you again.”
Although George and he were brothers, they had a falling out over a decade ago
and hadn’t had any
contact since then.
With tears welling up in her eyes, Hecate nodded and agreed, “Donald is right.
Just settle down here. As long as we have enough to eat, you will never go
hungry.”
Angela’s eyes welled up with emotion. It was only with Donald that she could feel
the warmth of family. It was a warmth she had never experienced in her previous
life, despite trying to please the Kins Family her whole life. The more Donald and
Aunt Hecate cared for her, the more guilty she felt.
In order to please the Kins Family, she deliberately reduced her interactions with
Donald’s family. But they didn’t hold any grudges and continued to treat her well.
She realized how foolish she had been in the

past. Instead of enjoying a life where she was loved and cared for, she chose to
be a servant. Angela blinked and said, “Donald, Hecate, it wasn’t them who drove
me out. I came to the realization myself and didn’t
cant to stay in that household anymore.
Queenie poured two cups of warm water and handed one to Angela, speaking
softly. “It’s best if you’ve come to this realization on your own. The Kins Family is
heartless. After they treated you like that, there’s nothing worth holding onto.”
Taking the cup, Angela took a sip and immediately felt warmth spreading through
her body. It wasn’t just her physical body, but her entire heart was enveloped in
warmth. That long-lost feeling seemed to have returned all at once.
“Queenie is absolutely right. In this family, no one will tolerate any mistreatment
towards you. If you have any needs, please don’t hesitate to let us know.
Consider this place your own home. Holding Angela’s hand. Hecate gazed at her
with a tender expression. She had watched this child grow up since she was
little, and Angela had always been obedient and sensible. Hecate couldn’t
comprehend how the Kins Family could be so heartless and do such despicable
things to their own daughter. Despite Fanny being raised by them for over a
decade and having a closer relationship, blood is thicker than water. Angela was
Hecate’s sister—in—law’s flesh and blood. How could she not love her own flesh
and blood and instead shower affection on a cunning outsider?
Hecate still vividly remembered when Angela was first brought back; she was
thin, quiet, shy, and introverted. Initially, her sister—in—law felt sorry for her, but
gradually, she favored Fanny more. She believed that Angela was timid and
lacked confidence, and she didn’t possess the charm that Fanny had. Angela
was reserved, so Scarlet didn’t warm up to her.
It was Charlotte who noticed that Angela wasn’t thriving in that household and
brought her back to raise her. She raised her for several years. It was only when
Charlotte’s health deteriorated that Angela was sent back. But how long had she
been back before she was forced to leave again? Hecate felt extremely uneasy.
Donald entered the kitchen, tied an apron around his waist, and said to the
others, “You guys chat. I’ll start cooking.
Hecate took out the fruits from the refrigerator, washed them, and arranged them
on a fruit tray in front of Angela. “Just make yourself at home. Help yourself to
anything you want to eat or drink. If you need anything, just let us know. Don’t
feel like a stranger.”
Angela smiled and nodded, saying, “Thank you, Aunt Hecate.”
As she watched Donald busily working in the kitchen, Angela couldn’t help but
think about her uncle’s fate in her previous life, and her heart skipped a beat.
Who would have imagined that he, always strong and healthy, would be
diagnosed with late-stage gastric cancer a few years later? By then, it had
become so severe that he struggled to eat, and soon after, he passed away.
Reflecting on this. Angela felt uneasy. The incubation period of cancer is
excessively long. and she had personally experienced it in her previous life.
Stomachaches were a common symptom, and many people underestimated
them, believing that taking medication could alleviate the pain without the need to
go to the hospital. Only when the painkillers ceased to be effective did they
consider seeking medical attention, but by then, it was already too late. She
needed to find a way to persuade Uncle Donald to undergo a physical
examination in order to detect and treat it early, thus avoiding so many troubles.
Peeling an orange for Angela, Hecate smiled affectionately. “Silly child, we’re all
family here; there’s not

need to be so formal with us.”
Angela took the orange and popped a segment into her mouth. Mmm, it was truly
sweet, even sweeter than honey.
The sound of the door opening came from outside; it was Queenie’s grandmother
and her brother. Quincy Kins, returning.
