Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 55

"Sit in the passenger seat."

James’s indifferent voice came through the window.

Angela responded with difficulty, closing the back door before going around to the front and sat in the passenger seat.

The windows were open, but the car still smelled faintly of tobacco, which was not unpleasant but more tormenting to her than a stomach ache.

It was the same kind of cigarette he'd smoked when he broke her leg two years ago. This smell was so familiar to her that it tormented her in her dreams night after night.

The Bentley started up and soon disappeared into the night.

In the Rolls-Royce in front of the villa, Jessica followed Danis's line of sight and looked over, with a faint bitterness between her words, "You still can't forget Angela?"

“What?

Adeline, who was talking to her husband about business matters, snapped when heard this, "Danis, do you still like that murderer?"

His father didn't say anything, but he also looked at Danis disapprovingly.

'Yes, I can't forget her' This is what Danis thought, but there was no way to say it. He actually gave a completely opposite answer. "No."

"I wish you don't!"

Adeline felt relieved and said with an unpleasant look on her face,

"Angela and your sister were so close back then, but she dared to drive a car to kill your sister because James liked your sister!

Such a ruthless woman! Even if she hadn't hurt Jessica, there's still no way allowing her to go into our family!"

"Your mother is right."

Danis's father said in a deep voice.

Danis swallowed, and his amber eyes stained with dullness. He said in a lower than usual voice, "Dad, mom, don't worry. I still have the most basic concepts of right and wrong."

“OK.

Before you knew she was a murderer, I can understand you like her. But now that you know she has a scorpion heart, you shouldn't be obsessed with her anymore. "

Adeline frowned and said.

Danis lowered his eyes, hiding the look underneath them, "I don’t like her anymore."

"But James......"

Jessica pondered and hesitantly said.

"Cathleen told me at the party that she saw you cuddling with Angela, so she asked me to keep an eye on you in the future."

"Cuddling?

James, is that true?!"

Adeline was emotionally forgotten that she was still in the car, so she hit the roof when she tried to stand up, which made her pale with pain.

Danis's thin lips closed tightly. His expression changed, with a mixed feeling of annoyance, guilt, and anger towards Cathleen.

"Mom, don't be so nervous. It's probably just a misunderstanding.

As you know, Cathleen doesn’t do things wisely."

Jessica glanced at him and gently reassured Adeline.

Adeline glared at her son while rubbing her sore head, "Honestly, is it a misunderstanding or true?!"

"It is true."

Under the gaze of the angry Adeline and disappointed father, Danis said with a guilty conscience, "But...she took the initiative to find me."

His father looked at him, thoughtful and vaguely displeased.

Hearing this, Adeline's anger finally dissipated a bit, “What for?"

"I don't know, she didn't get a chance to say anything before Cathleen came."

Danis inclined his head to look out of the window, his voice tinged with a bit of fatigue.

Jessica looked at the side of his face, the corners of her mouth curving up in a slight curve.

"Angela did such a frantic thing to Jessica, why does she still haunt you?

No, I'll have to go find and ask Elva and Lorenzo how they discipline their own daughters tomorrow!"

Adeline was panting with anger.
