Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 63

"What statement, you misheard!

Eh, I've had too many drinks, my head hurts. I'll sleep a bit more, don't call me!"

Greyson smiled awkwardly and hurriedly said a few words before hanging up the phone, leaving Angela no more chances to ask questions.

When Angela dialed again, there was no answer.

She pursed her lips and got out of the bed. She put on her shoes and headed out the door without even changing her hospital gown.

Brother did things impulsively without thinking about the consequences, and he did not even know what he had just done!

"You're going out?"

Julia stood up and blocked in front of her, "Your sister-in-law told you to get some rest."

Angela frowned, "Get out of the way."

"Your leg has been injured before, and now you've been burned. What if inflammation or something else caused a cellular necrosis? Your leg would be completely crippled."

Julia did not know anything about medicine, and she did not even know what she just babbled about. She just wanted to stop Angela from leaving the hospital.

Angela frowned a little harder, "I know my own legs, get out of the way."

After a pause, she added,

"If you don't want to offend my sister-in-law, you can just tell her that I rushed out. She's not unreasonable."

Julia glanced at her face and hesitated, but still gave in, "That's what you said yourself."

Angela confirmed carelessly, and ran around her to the outside.

"Angela, wait for me, I'll go with you!"

Julia thought for a moment and quickly followed up.

Without stopping, Angela ran all the way to the elevator, pressed the buttons of all four elevators and waiting between two of them that were coming at the same speed with her head down and frowned eyebrows.

DING!

The elevator door opened.

When she lifted her head and was about to enter, she froze at the sight of the persons in the elevator.

In the elevator, James stood behind the wheelchair in a silver-grey suit, noble and handsome, and he was looking intently at the wound on the back of Jessica's hand.

Julia was standing right besides Angela and froze at the sight too.

"Why are you still running out?"

Jessica looked at her leg and said anxiously.

“Your leg got burned, so it's better for you to rest on bed."

James lifted his eyes, glancing at Angela's leg for a moment, and then quickly moved the eyes away.

"Did my brother make that wound on the back of your hand?"

Angela licked her dry lips and asked as she saw the wound on the back of Jessica's hand.

Her brother was still at the police station after such a long time, which meant that he must had gotten into a big trouble. She could not really think of any other reason and anyone who had provoked James and Jessica.

Jessica nodded slightly and said with a bitterness on her pretty face, 'Greyson called it ‘an eye for an eye’.

He also said that I must have splashed you on purpose. He wouldn’t believe me no matter how I explained it.”

Julia's gaze wandered around, not knowing where to look at.

“Do you...... can you leave him alone?"

Angela’s throat rolled as she held back the part 'didn't you really do it on purpose?'.

James looked at the patch of medical bandage on Angela's leg, a dark aura flashing under his eyes, and he felt vaguely annoyed.

"I've suggested several times to handle it in private, but Greyson called me...... a fake ass bitch and refused to accept my good intentions, so I really had no choice."

Jessica sighed helplessly.

After hearing this, Julia, who had been silent, said with a frown,

"That's Mr. Greyson’s fault then. Miss Jessica said she won't mind, but he still......"

She weighed her words, “scold her."

Angela pressed her lips and clenched her fists tightly.
