Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 240

The scene of James applying the suit jacket to her and the appearance of his soaked shirt clinging to his body were constantly appearing in her mind.

Angela turned on the bedside lamp and sat up. She got out of the bed with a pale look and walked to the door. She remembered James usually prepared a medicine cabinet, which should contain anti-fever medicine.

But she didn’t go out of the room after she turned the doorknob and opened the door. She just closed the door again.

James’s fever was none of her business!

Angela lay back on the bed with a stern countenance. She huddled in the quilt with her hands around the knees and closed her eyes with a frown.

She stayed awake all night.

Angela sat up with an appalling headache. She put on her shoes, and went downstairs slightly faster than usual. When she saw no one on the sofa in the living room, her face softened. Then she turned and went into the kitchen.

“Breakfast will be ready soon. Go to the dining room now and wait for me.” James was frying eggs with an apron. He seemed to suffer from a cold because he spoke with a nasal tone.

Angela opened her mouth but said nothing in the end. She turned back into the dining room.

She felt so dizzy and hungry that she rubbed her sore eyebrows. Many thoughts crossed her mind, but she didn’t know what she was thinking.

“Help yourself.” James had already taken off his apron. He put the fried eggs, porridge, and a few stir-fried side dishes on the table.

Angela glanced at his pale face, grasped the corner of her clothes slightly, and lowered her head to eat.

“You didn’t sleep well because you were worried about me?” James asked.

“No.” Angela didn’t even hesitate for a moment before answering him with a faint expression, “It’s just that I was frightened by Lawson, so I didn’t sleep well.”

James stopped eating, raised his eyes, and looked at her firmly. After a while, he withdrew his gaze, “Don’t go to see my grandpa if I’m not with you.”

“Oh!” Angela sneered and said sarcastically, “It is as easy for him to take me away as you want to keep me by your side. Neither of you needs my permission.”

James held the chopsticks tightly, and his knuckles turned white due to the excessive force. He used his chopsticks to nip a handful of beans, but most of the beans fell off before they got into the bowl.

He picked up tissue to wrap the beans and threw them into the trash can. Then he returned to his seat and said, “Change your clothes and go to the company with me after breakfast.”

“I didn’t sleep well last night, and I need to get more sleep.” Angela continued to eat without even lifting her head.

“You have disrupted Grandpa’s plan. Even if you have my flesh and blood, Grandpa may not let go of you. He doesn’t like us.” James continued, “Go to the company with me later. You can sleep in the lounge.”

Angela swallowed the fried egg in her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed.

After eating, they went to the Harvey Group together.

“Hello, President Harvey.”

“Good morning, President Harvey.”

Where they showed up, people kept saying hello to James, and some people sneaked a look at Angela.

“Have you seen enough?” James hugged Angela and glanced at those employees.

Those employees smiled sheepishly and shifted their gazes in a hurry.

After getting into the elevator, Angela shook off James’s hand and stood in the farthest corner away from him.
