Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 23

"Oh... "

Then the elevator went off and suddenly someone came over and rushed inside, yelling, " Come on. Two guys are making love. Come and have a look!"

"she was wearing a cleaner’s uniform…"

The speaker stopped abruptly as he saw that man's face.

Mr. Harvey…James?

The people in the elevator came out noisily and excitedly to have a look. However, when they recognized who that man was, they all paled in fright and instantly became mute.

It was hard for they to decide whether to leave ot not.

James threw his suit over Angela and blocked her with a piercing chill on his face, "Are you waiting for me to send you away?"

“No... I won't bother you, I... we're leaving right...!"

The man standing in the middle stumbled, even if he was curious about who the heroine was, he didn't dare to look at her. He pushed the crowd inside the elevator.

Cathleen stood in the crowd. After having several looks, she thought that woman was Angela. However, before she could take a closer look, she was dragged away by a man, "Don't drag me so hard!"

The corridor, which had just seemed crowded, was instantly empty.

"I can't afford Mr. Harvey's clothes."

Angela shuddered with her right hand covering her broken clothes. She handed the suit to James, tears falling down her face.

James dropped his eyes to tear stains on his suit. He suddenly became irritated.

He paused for a moment before picking up his suit and said, "Who do you want to seduce if you dress like that?

Or are you trying to make me feel sympathatic for you?"

Seduce?

Tears flowed into Angela's mouth, extremly bitter.

Did she want to dress like this?

Didn't he rip her clothes off?

"But there's no use for you to seduce anyone, they can't help you."

James swept over her water-soaked eyes. His chest felt inexplicably stuffy. He frowned and moved away, "The only one who can get you out of here is me."

Angela clenched her hands and scoffed to herself, "Is Mr. Harvey implying me to seduce you?"

She licked her dry lips, her chest sinking as if a boulder had fallen, "You didn't even like me two years ago, it's impossible for you to like me now.

Are you telling me that I have to stay here forever to atone for my sins?"

"It's good for you to know this."

James said mockingly.

Angela knew he would say that, but her heart still ached like a million needles pricking at the same time.

She knew she should drop the idea forever, but there was always a hope in her heart, "Would you believe me if I told you that I didn't drive into Jessica, and she ran to the car on purpose?"

Her tail sound quivered.

She had said that many times, but no one believed her, not even her brother.

Because there were mass of irrefutable facts and all of them indicated that it was something she would do.

But she wanted to tell him again. He was a smart guy, and he might see through Jessica's dirty tricks!

"Two years in prison and you haven't improved at all."

James chuckled lightly as he stroked the visible scars on her cheek, "These scars, for nothing."

Angela took a few steps backward to avoid his touch. Somehow, her tears streamed down her face.

She bowed her head and quickly wiped away her tears.

"Don't act pathetic in front of me, it's useless."

James looked aloof.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Angela seemed to be strangled in the neck, unable to breathe. Her heart was stuffy and clogged, "If not, I'm going to work."
