Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 239

Hearing this, Jessica’s body stiffened, and the blood on her face gradually disappeared.

“The cancellation of the engagement was proposed by James.” Edward continued, “Mr. Harvey said that he could not stop him and expressed his regrets for not being able to unite the marriage with the Smith family. He also said if you change your mind and want to marry another person in the Harvey family, he would be very happy to have you as his granddaughter-in-law.”

Adeline’s eyes gradually widened, and she asked incredulously, “Jessica is so good. Why did James want to cancel the engagement with her? What did he think?”

Seeing that Jessica didn’t look well, Edward said to Adeline, “Forget it.”

Adeline muttered under her breath and looked at Jessica worriedly.

“Jessica, Ralphie is not worse than James, and he has always been fond of you. How about you...” Edward persuaded her.

But before he finished his words, Jessica interrupted him with a wry smile, “Dad, my engagement with James has been known to the public for two years. If I cancel the engagement with him and marry Ralphie, what will others think of me?”

“Don’t care about those gossips. They will disappear after a while. When did you begin to care about what others say about?” Edward said.

Jessica’s eyes flashed, and she bit her lips and said, “Grandfather and others are already on the way. We should go over as well. Otherwise, grandpa would be unhappy if none of our family members were there.”

“Speaking of your grandpa, I’m so angry!” Adeline complained, “It’s shameful that he marries a hooker. I really don’t know...”

Jessica felt upset and interrupted Adeline with a forced smile, “It’s getting late. You have to go over now. I still have something to do, so I’ll go there in a while.”

“Okay. Be careful on the way.” Edward left with Adeline hand in hand.

Jessica watched her parents enter the elevator, and the smile on her face disappeared completely. She took out her mobile phone and called an attorney at Sailing Law Firm.

“Hello, this is Jessica.” After exchanging the usual pleasantries, Jessica asked, “Is it convenient to sue her now?”

The attorney said, “Yes, if you are in a hurry, I will file a lawsuit with the court right now, and the verdict will come out soon.”

“Well,” Jessica said gently, “I don’t want Angela to be arrested for attempted murder. After I sue her, if she apologizes to me, I’m willing to withdraw the prosecution.”

The attorney paused for a while and then asked, “You mean you want to sue Angela as soon as possible, but you don’t want the verdict to come out too soon?”

Jessica gave out a hum and asked softly, “Is it possible?”

After obtaining the attorney’s agreement, Jessica thanked the attorney again and again, and then hung up the phone.

Jessica thought James would definitely come to her before the verdict came out. And she believed she could get a satisfactory result after negotiation.

Angela didn’t eat at night. She felt hungry in the early morning, so she went downstairs in her pajamas to look for something to eat.

Boom!

A heavy object suddenly fell to the ground in the dark living room. And at the same time, Angela heard a man’s muffled sound.

Angela frowned slightly, stepped back a few steps, and picked up the vase. Then she gently walked towards the place where the sound was coming from.

The man had lurched to his feet and sat on the sofa, with his hands on the knees. Angela couldn’t see his face in the darkness.

Angela pressed her lips tightly and raised the vase to the top of her head with both hands.

“It’s me.”

At this time, Angela heard James’s hoarse voice.

In the darkness, Angela’s eyes gleamed, but she still tried to use the vase to hit his head without hesitation.
