Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 172

When he saw it was Angela standing outside, James raised his eyebrows slightly and smoothened his facial expression, "You're looking for me?"

Angela shuddered and took a deep breath, trying to suppress the emotions churning in her blood, "I told you I had nothing to do with Danis, then you said you believed me. Besides, you also said you would not blame me for the accident two years ago, right?"

"Come in, it's cool outside."

James glanced at the thin hospital gown she was wearing and moved aside to make way for her.

Angela did not move and clenched her hands that were hanging down on both sides of her body tighter, then she asked again, "You said you believed me, didn't you?"

"Yes." Having Angela’s figure reflected in his pupils, James gave out a light “umm”.

Angela took a deep and shivering breath, and glared at him with a deadly stare, "You told me yourself that I don't have to go back to work at Dream Club in the future, didn't you?"

"Right." James said.

His affirmation did not brighten Angela at all; instead, it stimulated her anger instantly, "You told me I don't have to work at the Dream Club in the future, yet you told my brother that you won't let me go...... James, is it fun to play with me?"

Her anger was burning her whole body in the cool hallway.

James looked down at her, looking deep into the bottom of his eyes, his throat rolling, but he said nothing.

"Why don't you say something?"

Angela's whole body tightened, anger and hatred almost bursting out of her body, "If you know what happened between us are misunderstandings, why do you refuse to let me go?"

Luna stood on the side watching the two, her face not good as well.

Under a gust of wind passing by, the hospital gown clung to Angela's body, making her look even thinner.

Looking at the scar near her eyebrow and her thin body, James felt like his heart just got pinched by something, "Is staying by my side a torture for you?"

"What do you think?" Angela said with full ridicule and mockery, her voice a bit sharp due to her raising pitch, "If you were misunderstood, then that person broke your legs, sent you to prison, forced you to accompany women, threw you out naked in addition to trampling your dignity and making you beg for your life just to live in the world."

She took a step forward, stared at him, gritting her teeth,

"And at last, you were forced to stay with that person; do you think it would be an enjoyment?"

With every sentence of hers dropping, James's face turned paler and paler. Every word she said seemed like a sharp knife that was stabbing him in the heart without mercy.

He pursed his lips, feeling like there was a boulder pressing against his chest, "I can't let you go"

“Well.” Angela sneered, anger exploding in her body, "You......"

"You have to stay with me for the rest of your life, Angela."

James stretched out his hand and gently stroked the scar at the end of her eye, feeling like his heart was stuffed by a water-soaked cotton, dull and depressing, making each breath difficult.

With a few windows left open in the hallway, a cool autumn breeze blew in.

James's words were like a bucket of cold water pouring Angela from head to toe. Her body was cold, but the anger in her heart was burning.

The coexistence of both coldness and heat made her so uncomfortable that it was almost splitting her in half.

"James!" Angela slapped his hand away hard and said with red eyes, "The first twenty years of my life has been ruined by you. Do you have to ruin the rest of my life as well? What have I done to you to deserve this? Ha?”

A few ward doors opened again near them, stuck their heads out to see what was going on while complaining.

“It is you again? This is a hospital. Can you guys keep your voices down?"

"Why are young people so selfish in these days?"
