Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Heartache

Angela looked him straight in the eye and nodded, "Believe it or not, that's the truth."

"You've been in jail for two years and you're still as open-mouthed a liar as ever!"

Danis sneered, unable to say whether he was jealous or angry.

Even when she was down and out like this, she still chased after James to death, never looking him in the eye"

"You can think what you like."

After a moment, Angela said with downcast eyes.

It was useless for her to say more to those who didn't believe her.

She turned around and headed towards the restroom.

"Angela!"

Danis yanked her, pinning her against the wall, and said angrily.

"You have hit Jessica's leg and ended her dancing career, and now you want to seduce her boyfriend?

Where is your conscience?"

They were close, close enough to make out the tiny fuzz on each other's faces.

He looked down at her, and his heart suddenly ached as his gaze touched the bruises on her face, as if his heart had been suddenly stabbed by a needle.

She had always been big-headed and didn't care about anything, but she cared about her face as much as every other girl, and now she had such a visible scar added to her face.

"You're right. I was seducing Mr. James."

Propping her hands on the front of his chest, Angela attached herself to his ear and taunted.

"But you're wrong about one thing. It's never me whose conscience is eaten by dogs."

Silky curls of hot air hovered along the cochlea of his ears, penetrating an unspeakable ambiguity, and Danis was in a trance for a moment and had been pushed away by her.

Angela fiddled with her bangs to cover the scar on her face, and when she turned around, she inadvertently saw James not far away.

He wasn't wearing a suit jacket, and his white shirt was buttoned all the way up to the top one, looking ascetic but also oozing a bit of insensitivity.

Angela did not know how long he had stood there and wondered what he saw and what he heard. She was inexplicably uneasy and subconsciously wanted to explain, "Ja..."

The next moment, James brushed past her, not even bothering to give her a glance, and went straight into the men's restroom off to the side.

It wasn't that he was angry and ignoring her, but it was that he ignored her as if she was transparent.

Angela's hand stopped in mid-air for a moment and dropped down to her lap.

Had she just been brain-dead or hysterical? How could she ridiculously think he was jealous and angry?

The person he loved was Jessica, while she was just a mole who had harmed his beloved and was disgusted by his revenge.

How could she think of anything else when she was already thankful to please him and escape his revenge?

"You like James so much?"

Danis looked at her with a complicated expression. His heart seemed to be tipped over like a spice bottle, with mixed flavors, "Even if he broke your legs and sent you to prison, you still like him and want to be with him?"

"Who I like seems to have nothing to do with Mr. Danis.

Or have you always liked me and felt jealous?"

Angela asked lightly.

Her words stung Danis, and his face abruptly turned ugly, "Do I need to remind you that I have a girlfriend? Even if I don't have one, there's no way I'd like someone who tried deliberately to murder my sister."

"That's good."

Angela turned and went into the restroom.

Danis stood still with his complex expression, and finally washed his face and went back.

When Angela went back, Danis and James had long been sitting in their seats, and she swept her eyes in James's direction and went back to her original seat.

"Angela, you've been there for so long. Did you have a bad stomach?"

Jessica asked with a worried look.

Fearing that her stomach would be uncomfortable, Angela didn't eat anything else and just picked up a bowl of miso soup and sipped it in small sips, "No, don't worry about me."
