Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 293

Seeing that James agreed with his opinion, Lorenzo was clearly more excited than usual, "Finally, someone could understand me! Angela and Jessica had a grudge, what could I? If we sacrifice the Chante family to save Angele, you might make us break. In front of the Smith family and the Chante family, I can't protect Angela at all."

Hearing the words "can't protect Angela", James's eyes dimmed for a while as he tapped the sofa unconsciously with his right hand.

"I did all this for my family!" Lorenzo said angrily, "But now, my family members came to accuse me one by one. Do they know why they can live such a happy life?"

James put down the cup and leaned forward with his elbows on the knees, "Parents of Angela's mother. Everything you have was given by them." Then he said with a smile, "Is that right?"

"I'm grateful to them, too." Lorenzo froze for a while and changed the topic, "But the best choice I could make two years ago, to give up on Angela. You also agree with me on this, right? Nevertheless, it was two years in prison, not a death sentence."

James smiled with mockery," Just two years in prison? Why about you having a try? I believe that Angela will consider forgiving you if you take the initiative to in prison for two years."

"If my son and my daughter can support the Chant Group, I will go into prison without any hesitation. Being in prison meant eating and sleeping all day without doing anything else, easier than being a civil servant."

James said with cold eyes, "I finally understand what is called back pain."

Lorenzo's face went gloomier.

"Since you said this, what about this? I will take care of the Chant Group and you can go into prison? James narrowed his eyes and pulled his silver tie.

"How could that work?" Lorenzo's face was blue. He managed to say in a soft voice, "Anyway, you are from the Harvey family. I can't let you do this."

James took a sip of tea and said lightly, "That's true. After all, you don't even trust your two children, so you naturally wouldn't trust me."

"Don't believe Angela's nonsense!" Lorenzo tried his best to maintain elegance, but it was still obvious that he was angry.

James said with a sneer on his lips, "Actually, I'm not the only one who agrees with you. Angela also agrees."

Lorenzo slightly widened his eyes to hide the surprise on his face.

"But we agree with the premise that you really are doing it for the good of the Chant family." James took the teapot and served Lorenzo with tea, saying slowly, "But if you are doing it for your own good, that's different."

Lorenzo put the teacup on the table, "No matter what I think, the result is already there."

James sneered, "If your ability matches your coldness, my grandfather won't judge you like that."

Lorenzo was surprised when hearing James suddenly mention Lawson. And it seemed that Lawson didn't judge him well. He felt uneasy. He wanted to ask detailed questions but suddenly saw James standing up.

"Finished packing?" Seeing Angela come downstairs, James walked to her.

Angela answered with a "yes" and walked to the dining room with James.

Lorenzo followed them with a frown, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the dining room, the maids had already set up the table. Seeing the three come in, the maid came forward, pulled out seats for them, and then stood aside in silence.

"Where's your mother?" Lorenzo asked with a frown, "How can she still keep the guest waiting?"

Angela glanced at him coolly, "If you're hungry, eat first. No one will stop you."

"Watch your attitude!" Lorenzo roared. But he suddenly remembered that James was still here, so he said in a softer voice, "Go ask your mother and your brother to come down."

Just after he said this, Elva came in. Greyson and Luna followed her, each leading a child.

"Wow, what a handsome brother!" As soon as Taotao saw James, her eyes lit up. She ran to him and asked for a hug with a smile.

Greyson was so angry that the veins on his forehead were jumping violently, "He is a bad guy! Don't go to him! Come back!"

The little girl shook her head and refused while hugging James's thighs. No matter what Greyson said, she just wouldn't let her father's thigh go, "This brother is handsome."

"Do you have any appetite? Am I better looking than this bad guy?" Greyson's handsome face turned blue with anger. Seeing that he couldn't persuade Taotao with words, he forcibly picked Taotao away.

Taotao looked at him with big eyes and wrinkled her face.

Greyson was alert when seeing her like this. The next second, she twitched her mouth and cried hard.

Everyone hurriedly came to comfort the Taotao. After the mess, she sat in the arms with a choke. As for Greyson, he was silent and upset after being scolded by his wife.

"Brother, can you hug me?" Taotao looked at James beside her with a grievance.

James was not moved. He put a chicken wing into Angela's bowl and said, "I only hug my wife."

"Shameless!" Greyson poked the rice in the bowl hard as if the rice was James. Luna glared at him and pinched him on the waist to stop him from talking nonsense.

Taotao titled her head, "Can I be your wife? So that you can hug me?"

Hearing this, Greyson immediately stood up. Before he shouted anything, Luna pinched his ears to stop him.

"One man can only have one wife, and I already have one." James explained to Taotao very seriously, "Also, you should call me Uncle, not Brother."

Taotao was already smart enough, but she still didn't fully understand James, "What's an uncle?"

James explained but Taotao was still confused, so she quickly turned her attention to the food and enjoyed the shrimp Angela peeled for her.

During the meal, Lorenzo wanted to ask James how Lawson judged him several times. But since it might not be a good judgment, he swallowed his words back several times, so he didn't enjoy the meal at all.

Finally, dinner was over. Lorenzo said, "Suddenly want to play chess. James, come with me."

"Angela ate too much. Sorry, I can't play chess with you. I have to take a walk with her." After this, James walked upstairs with Angela. He didn't leave any chance for Lorenze to refuse. Obviously, taking a walk was just an excuse.

As Angela reached the stairs, she glanced back and saw her dad looking at them with a scowl on his face. She laughed happily and took James upstairs under Lorenzo's exasperated gaze.

When she got to the room and closed the door, Angela was about to ask James if her dad had something for him, but before she could say anything, she was suddenly pressed against the wall by James.
