Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30 James Left Her Alone

"Why didn't you say anything? How can you suddenly appear from nowhere. You really scare me to death!" Nova laughed awkwardly and left with Janet who was flushing.

Only after they left did Angela drag her leaden legs to the bathroom.

After washing her face, she looked up in the mirror and realized her eyes were somehow red.

She shuddered and took in a deep breath, biting her lip to push down the choke in her throat and bent down to wash the tears from her face.

Angela adjusted herself and returned to the ballroom, only to find that the party was over.

She went out of the hotel to look for the car and couldn't find the Bentley... James left her behind.

"Mr. Chante, it's settled then. I'll ask my secretary to send you the contract tomorrow."

"Sure! I want to work with you for a long time, and I finally get the chance."

Hearing the familiar voice, Angela turned toward the entrance.

She wanted to go forward, but she was hesitant, looking at her father Lorenzo Chante in a daze.

The smile on Lorenzo's smile disappeared instantly when he saw her. He frowned at her and then averted his gaze.

"Dad!" Angela clutched her hands and plucked up the courage to walk over, "James isn't here, you don't have to... avoid me."

"Mr. Flank, I have something else to do, see you next time." Lorenzo interrupted her and pulled open the door, got into the car and left.

Angela stood still as the car disappeared from her view, dazed and chilling to the bone.

People come and go in a scene of feasting and pleasure-seeking. Not far away, someone is laughing, and the city was lively at night but it had nothing to do with her.

The cold wind was blowing and the tears on her face were dry and wet.

"Nobody needs me..." Angela murmured. She licked her dry lips and walked straight towards the traffic.

Her family didn't need her anymore, so why would she need then and live in anguish?

Death seemed to be a good choice as she didn't have to work so hard and be sneered by others.

Angela watched the cars approaching from a short distance with her eyes closed and hands opened, and a smile emerging.

She had never been so close to death, and yet she was not afraid at all, only yearning for it.

BANG!

Just as the car was about to hit Angela was about to hit her, a white Ferrari rushed over and crushed into the black car.

The two cars didn't stop immediately after crashing into each other, but spun and crashed into the side of the green belt.

Splash…

Splash…

The traffic on this road was a mess, accompanied by the sound of brakes in rapid succession.

Angela opened her eyes, the flickering headlights blinded her.

She stood in stunned silence at the center of the crash, vaguely seeing a man staggering out of the Ferrari and running towards her in panic.

It was only when the driver approached that she saw her brother covered in blood.

"Angela, are you okay?" Greyson pressed her shoulder and scanned her up and down worriedly, "You..."

"Why not find a better place if you want to commit suicide?" The driver of black car got out of the car, covering his bleeding head and angrily interrupted him, "Fuck you! Do you know how to drive? I never thought someone can come from the opposite lane. How did you get your driving license?"

"Don't fucking chirp. Tell me how much do you want, I'll pay you! Is a hundred thousand dollars enough?"

Greyson swished and signed a check, tossing it impatiently to the driver of the black sedan.

The man held the check in his hand with his face turning red out of anger, "This is not a matter of money! I just suffer from minor injury this time, what if I get killed? Will your damned money buy my life back?"
