Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 330

It would maintain a semblance of peace if they pretended not to know each other, but Danis's remarks out of blue gave out the smell of a standoff with the atmosphere swiftly turned a bit embarrassing.

Cathleen's face changed, and she looked at Angela with a could of glumness in her eyes.

Watching what had happened, James took a few steps to the left front of Angela mutely, barely blocking the sight from Danis and Cathleen.

Duran got stunned for a second and said with a smile, "People were always frivolous when young, weren't they? It's common to have some former hidden crushes or exes. I had written love letters sneakily to our Class Beauty myself when I was in high school."

It's distinctly an out for Danis.

With that, Angela felt a bit surprised, for she hadn't expected Duran was so close to Danis!

"Dad, how dare you write love letters secretly when you were just a high school student?" Raya was looking for Angela when she happened to hear her father's confession. She burst out instantly, "I'm telling this to mom."

Duran replied with a tap on her head, "You little brat, why are you interrupting as the adults are talking? Sean, I just saw your father and stepmother were also here, and you can take Raya to greet them."

Sean responded and pulled her away.

Angela had longed to invite Mrs. Brown home to comfort her mother since the other day. But she's afraid it's too brusque to invite her bluntly in the case that she had never met her and knew nothing about her.

"Let's also go to greet Mrs. Brown later," James whispered in Angela's ear on seeing her look to Sean.

Angela nodded gently.

"Danis, it's good to be blunt. There's nothing wrong for you to behave so." Duran said, "Nevertheless, it differs by occasion. For example, it might not be appropriate to talk about your past flings in front of Cathleen."

Cathleen smiled and said with sarcasm, "That's all right. I am used to it."

"I'm just accustomed to talking that way. I'll pay attention next time." Danis apologized to Cathleen with apparently little sincerity.

She sniffed.

"You literally need to pay attention," James wiped a crumb off the corner of Angela's mouth and continued, "or not only Miss Delia would be unhappy, I would also feel uncomfortable."

Danis frowned and said after a pause, "It's my fault."

"I have forgiven you, Mr. Smith." James stared at him intently, with his hand around Angela's waist. "After all, my woman is too charming, and I know it clearly in my heart."

Both of them spoke with a sting in their words.

Duran interceded, "Mr. Harvey, don't be angry. I guarantee Danis didn't intend to be disrespectful as he is always blunt and unthoughtful. Besides, by his own account, he 'has pursued' her, which means it's already over."

"Duran, you don't need to explain it for Mr. Smith, for I'm not such a narrow-minded man," James said.

Duran guffawed, "If Mr. Harvey is narrow-minded, you would not reach your present position. Nevertheless, it's better to make it clear concerning such things."

"I agree with you on that. People in this field are always interested in scandals, so Mr. Smith had better restrain your words and behaviors lest you would get misunderstood by others." James said.

Danis stopped a waiter and asked for a glass of red wine, "I would, and thank you for your reminder. This is to you."

With that, he gestured to James before raising his head and drinking up the wine, and then he put the empty glass to the table nearby.

"I didn't mean to blame you, so you don't have to do that." James picked up a glass of juice from the waiter's tray and handed it to Angela. "You must be thirsty after eating so many snacks, aren't you? Have some juice."
