Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 29

Angela clenched her hands and didn't look back, “You already has a girlfriend. Aren't you afraid of being misunderstood by the others if you continued to stay here with me?"

With the strength on her shoulders loosing, she went straight out of the stairway without even looking at Danis.

She was unluckyto meet Cathleen.

Angela paused for a moment, then moved on.

However, she went left, Cathleen went left; she went right, Cathleen also went right, blocking her way.

“What are you doing with Danis?"

Catheleen asked while gnashing her teeth.

Angela asked, "They say I broke Jessica's leg, do you think Danis will be with his sister's enemy?"

Cathleen hesitated, but was still unsure, "If you don't hide something in your heart, tell me frankly why Danis is looking for you."

"If you want to ask something, just ask me."

Danis came out from the stairway, not looking very good.

The jealousy and resentment on Cathleen's face all disappeared, leaving only panic and anxiety.

She trotted up to Danis, put her arms around him and whispered.

"Danis, I......"

Angela had no intention of getting involved in the crap that was going on between them. Without Cathleen’s stop, she went straight into the banquet hall.

At the banquet, everyone was dressed up in fancy clothes and had a makeup, holding glasses of wine and laughing.

But with her short, uneven hair and her janitorial uniform, she looked incompatible with the others, not knowing where to go.

She watched James standing beside Jessica, talking to her parents.

She didn't know what he was talking about, but he had a shallow smile on his handsome face.

And her dad, talking and laughing with some men in suits, just averted his eyes from her and looked away so quickly, as if he'd seen something dirty.

It was the first time that she realized she was truly alone.

"Miss, Mr. Harvey wants you to come over."

The waiter came up and said.

Angela nodded wearily, dragging her heavy legs towards James.

"Angela, your clothes are wet, you'll catch cold if you wear them all night."

Jessica said softly.

“You’d better change into my gawn."

"She broke your leg and you're still being so nice to her, aren't you stupid?"

Adeline regreted that she did not live up to her expectation, "You still want to count money for people when they sell you?"

Angela lowered her head and bit her lip, anger rushing through her chest, but there was nothing she could do but to endure.

James chuckled lightly, and replied.

"Auntie Adeline, you don't know your own daughter very well."

Jessica's stupid?

Heh, joke.

"?"

Adeline looked at him, not understanding what he meant by that, while Jessica, in the wheelchair, didn't look very well.

With absolutely no intention of explaining himself, James placed the empty glass on the waiter's tray, grabbed another glass of champagne, and left.

Angela followed him.

Missing her meal for the day, Angela felt a stomachache.

"Did Danis call you?"

James didn't even stop and asked her carelessly.

Angela was stunned for a moment before realizing he was asking her, and she replied with an “Hmmm”.

"You've worked really hard to get back."

James stopped and looked down at her, "You think you broke Jessica's leg and you still have a possibility to be with Danis?

Hmm?”

His dark eyes stared at her, showing no difference from usual, but she somehow felt that he was upset. She had no idea who had enraged him.

She licked her dry lips and dropped her eyes to avoid his gaze, "I didn't."

James laughed softly, a laugh that seemed to be sarcastic.

Angela wanted to explain, but ended up saying nothing.
