Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 283

In the ward.

After Roland and Eleanor left, James threw the cover, then asked Angela to lie on the bed and massage her waist. She felt that this posture made her uncomfortable and wanted to refuse, but she couldn't dissuade him.

"You don't need to be so deliberate." Angela put her hands on the pillow, resting her chin on her hands, "Roland had no interest in me. "

James massaged her waist for a while, then moved to her right leg, "What deliberate?"

"You know exactly." Angela frowned.

James grabbed her waist, and turned her over, facing her, "I don't know, why don't you tell me?"

He was close to her, as if he would kiss her any second.

Angela was uncomfortable looking at by him. She wanted to turn over and stay away from him, but was stopped by James half way through.

James dragged her back and sat up, "Do you think you are at home? You'll fall from the bed."

Angela glanced at the bed; she was embarrassed.

She forgot the bed was small.

"Why did you do that today?" James sat on the chair and removed the water bag and water pipe, lest Lawson or others found the clues.

Angela said lightly, "What do you think I would do? Diss back as before?"

James was noncommittal.

"I just wanted to." Angela didn't explain.

In fact, she has been thinking all this time that Jessica was a brassy and scheming bitch. Jessica wouldn’t be hurt if Angela dissed back. On the contrary, it would just be an opportunity for Jessica to pretend to be the victim.

When she heard Jessica apologizing to her today, her first thought was that Jessica might use the ruse of self-injury to win her confidence and then pretend to black out to win public sympathy.

Men were strange. When something happened, they always subconsciously sympathized with the weak.

Angela didn't want to give Jessica the chance to gain sympathy, and wanted to use Jessica's customary tactics to disgust Jessica.

James didn't ask, but frowned slightly when he saw that she didn't want to tell him.

Angela wanted to take this opportunity to return to the Chante family, but she was afraid that her parents would not know she was ill, so she wanted to tell her brother and sister-in-law so that they could pass the message to her parents.

When she was about to text them, she found out that she didn't bring her phone.

"Did you bring your phone when you came out?" Angela asked.

"No." It’s a bit hot in the ward. James took off his suit jacket and hung it on a hanger. “Do you want to check the news if Jessica made any moves with her faint, or you want to tell your brother that you are in the hospital?”

Angela's pupils became bigger, and she did not answer.

It was not the first time James has outguessed her; she still had an indescribable sense of fear when he made the correct guess.

He was so smart, but he still had to maneuver with people like Jessica and Lawson.
