Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey novel Chapter 71

"That's really a pity, I do like Angela."

Denise sighed, “Well, when are you going to marry Jessica?”

James frowned and didn’t answer.

“If you don’t have someone else in your heart, what are you waiting for? It would not worth it to both upset your grandfather and loss hundreds of millions.”

Denise said.

James said while having his meal, "I knew what I am doing."

"Well,"

Denise let out a great sigh, ''Usually when you say that, I would be relieved.

But this time somehow, I feel more stressed.”

James glanced up at her, then lowered his head back to his meal. He tried to change the topic, "Angela’s leg was scalded. She is now in the First Hospital."

"How did she scald her leg?"

Denise put down her spoon, shocked and concerned, "Is it serious?"

“By hot tea. She would need to be hospitalized for a while."

"Hot tea?"

Denise raised her eyebrows slightly, "I heard that Greyson had smashed your clubs and splashed Jessica with hot tea. So, Jessica also accidentally scalded Angela with hot tea?"

James said yes.

Denise chuckled and said vaguely.

"I don't know if it's good or bad that the Smiths has such a smart daughter.”

She looked at James, who was eating attentively, and tapped the table twice, "You seldom have dinner at home. It’s so abnormal. Did you just come back to inform me of Angela’s scalded leg on purpose?"

"I didn’t say that."

James said.

With her chin propped on her hands, Denise examined her son's handsome face, "Can I regard it as a way that you care about Angela?

Son, do you really have no feelings for Angela?"

“Ms. Denise."

James put down the chopsticks and wiped his mouth.

Denise raised his hands in surrender and sighed.

"Perhaps I gave it too much thought."

At this moment, James's phone rang. He reached it but put it back on the table when seeing the caller ID.

Roaring for thirty seconds or so, the phone still failed to raise his attention. After a while, Denise's phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Denise glanced up at James and sighed, "Why it's so hard to have a peaceful meal?"

She answered the phone and chuckled.

“You call me at this moment, you're not going to invite me for a dinner, are you?

Really?

I'm so sorry, Adeline. I just finished it."

"You ask me why James has canceled the lawsuit against Greyson?

“Well, about that, I have no idea at all,either. James told me nothing."

"Hand the phone to him?”

I'm at home. He’s still at the office. He didn’t come back.

Well, well, that's it, I'll scold him when I see him. That's so unkind."

Denise hung up the phone and peered at James, "You are a grown-up now. Don't let me clean up the mess for you next time."

"I am always a child before you."

James said.

Denise criticized him with a smile. Then, she got up and took her handbag, "It's still early. Come with me to visit Angela in the hospital."

On returning to the hospital, Angela called Greyson to tell him the whole story.
