Chapter 805
Seeing how polite Gabriel was being to Zachary, Evelyn reached out and yanked at her brother while expressing her
dissatisfaction, saying, "Gabriel, why are you being so polite to him?"
Gabriel looked at her willful expression and replied in a low voice, "Evelyn, this is President Yates of the Yates Family.
Watch your manners!"
She crossed her arms in front of her chest, seeming as though she wasn't afraid of anything in the world. Then, she
snorted coldly. "It's just the Yates Group. Gabriel, there's no reason for us to be afraid of him!"
Her arrogant attitude immediately gave Gabriel a headache, and he couldn't help feeling slightly troubled by her
behavior. Thus, he lowered his voice and redirected her attention. "Mom has woken up. Why don't you go and
check on her?"
A wave of relief washed over Evelyn as soon as she heard that Siobhan was awake. Shooting a fierce glare at
Nicole, she tossed her head and flounced away in a huff.
After Evelyn departed, Nicole finally asked, "Why was Madam Gould afflicted with a sudden fever? She was doing

well before this. Did something happen?"
Gabriel frowned slightly when he heard the question. A moment of consideration later, he slowly answered, "Her
blood fused too well with yours, resulting in a lack of antibodies in her body. That's why she is suffering from such a
high fever. Fortunately, her fever has tapered down, and her condition is no longer serious. Miss Anderson, I'm
sorry for troubling you to make this trip."
Nicole seemed slightly taken aback, but she nodded and said, "Oh, it's nothing. I've just been spending some time at
home for the past few days anyway. I'm glad that Madam Gould is feeling better."
Nevertheless, a hint of doubt flashed through her eyes. Coming from a medical background, she knew that
excessive blood fusion could only manifest among close relatives.
There was a certain chance for a recipient receiving a blood transfusion from immediate family members to have
their blood become excessively fused. The recipient's body would not react to the foreign blood, resulting in a high
fever due to a lack of antibodies. Such phenomena were not uncommon in medicine.
However, she had no kinship with Siobhan whatsoever. It was no secret that the Wrenn Family and the Gould Family
were extremely rich and powerful. If the Anderson Family could form a connection with any one of those families,
her father would have seized the opportunity a long time ago.

On that note, it was even more impossible on her mother's side of the family.
Her frown grew deeper as her eyebrows furrowed tightly together. Just how did that happen?
Be that as it may, she said nothing about the situation. She simply nodded dazedly and agreed with a smile. "Yeah.
It's great that Madam Gould's condition is not serious."
Seeing that there was no trace of displeasure on Nicole's face, Gabriel pondered for a moment before he
explained. "When my mother came down with a high fever, the doctor mentioned that it might have been caused
by an issue with the blood. That's why I asked you to come for a checkup today."
Nicole nodded to express her understanding. The reason behind his actions was understandable. The corners of her
mouth lifted into a slight smile, and she quietly assured him. "I see. If you would like a sample of my blood, I will
gladly cooperate."
When she clearly expressed the intent that he had been trying to broach, he hastily responded in assent to her
offer. "Good. Thank you for your kind consideration, Miss Anderson."
Listening to the conversation between those two, Zachary frowned slightly toward the end. He reached out and

tugged at Nicole's hand, and then spoke gently. "Nicky, you've always been anemic. Not to mention, your health has
been declining rapidly after you donated your blood to Madam Gould. Now…"
His sentence trailed off. Every word he spoke was just right, and none crossed the impropriety line. Nevertheless,
he had spoken everything that he wanted to say.
A look of surprise flashed through Gabriel's eyes. He turned to look at Nicole and asked softly, "Are you anemic,
Miss Anderson?"
Zachary quickly responded to the question before Nicole could even open her mouth. "That's right. I finally
managed to stabilize her condition recently. Who could have known that she would be so foolish as to donate her
own blood? Not only has her health deteriorated as a result, but she also had to endure the unwarranted insults
from your sister."
Gabriel lowered his head slightly, a faint expression of guilt appearing on his face. Then, he gave Nicole an
apologetic look. "I'm very sorry, Miss Anderson. I… didn't know about your condition. Now that my mother's
condition has stabilized, there is no need for you to draw more blood if it is inconvenient for you. The Wrenn Family
will never forget that you donated your blood to my mother."
Seeing that Gabriel was being so polite, Nicole answered him in a similarly humble manner. "It's nothing. Thank you
for the kind words."
