Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 381

The moment the call was answered, a light emerged in Jessica's eyes. Her brother didn't block her number, which meant that he didn't hate her that much!

Jessica was afraid that he would hang up the phone and quickly said, "Danis, I really know I'm wrong this time. I promise I will never hold anything against Angela and James again! Can you lend me some money first? I ... I haven't eaten for two meals."

From the moment she was born until now, she never thought that she would have no money for food one day.

Silence.

Jessica's heart beat fast. Her brother loved her so much, so he wouldn't reject her, right?

"... Do you really know you're wrong?" Danis' voice was a little hoarse.

Jessica bit her lip, "I like James, so I try my best to fight for it. I never thought there was anything wrong with that. But I fought as hard as I could and I didn't get him, so I won't waste my time anymore."

"You still have no remorse!" Danis' voice was filled with disgust.

"Danis!" there was a plea in Jessica's voice, "I really don't know what I did wrong, but I promise you I won't target Angela again! Really!"

She had nothing left. She didn't want to stand against her brother because of Angela!

"Jessica, you've lied to me too many times. I don't dare to trust you anymore."

The light in Jessica's eyes disappeared and was replaced by tears, "Can you trust me one more time ... okay?"

"I don't dare. I have a huge mess to clean up in the company. Don't you ever call me again." Danis hung up the phone directly after he finished.

Jessica called once more. This time, her number was blocked.

Jessica let out a bitter laugh. With a bang, she smashed the phone to the ground and stomped on it several times.

Angela had Greyson to protect her and her brother to love her when she was most down in prison ... Why did she fight so hard and end up with nothing?

It was unfair!

In the past, her grandfather told her that as long as she fought hard, she would definitely get what she wanted ... It was a lie!

A total lie!

Chante Group issued a clarification statement that afternoon, which contained various evidence that Smith Group had defamed the Chante family. Moreover, they stated that they would sue the Smith family for defamation.

Sometimes a bad thing happened, and more bad things would come later.

There were many negative news about the Smith family and Smith Group. More and more people criticized them and Jessica in particular.

When the stock market opened the next day, Chante Group's share price surged limit, while Smith Group did the opposite and directly declined limit.

The bank warned the Smith family that if they failed to repay the loan on time, they would foreclose on the fixed assets they had given as collateral for the loan.

Angela wanted to go back to work, but James hadn't settled about Ela. He was worried about her safety and wouldn't let her go to work.

She was sitting at home reading a book about baby care when Greyson called her.

According to his character, when he was happy about something, he would definitely call and share it with Angela. She was used to it.

"The stock price is up, right? I already know it. Congratulations ..."

Before Angela could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Greyson's angry roar, "Luna told me that our mother's death was related to James. And, you knew about it, didn't you?"

The curve on Angela's mouth disappeared. Luna finally told her brother about it, "Greyson ..."

"You don't have to say anything else! Angela, you come back right now! That's it!" Greyson hung up the phone quickly.

Angela's throat was dry. She drank a glass of water, took a deep breath to calm down, and called James.

"Luna already told my brother about you 'killing' my mother. My brother asked me to go back. You should go there too. When you get there, wait outside. You can go in when I ask you to."

Sooner or later, Greyson would know about it.

Then ... today was the day to tell him the truth.

Angela stood up and got dressed and asked the bodyguard to drive her to Chante's House.

Chante's House.

The living room.

The Chantes were all present, and the servants had been sent away.

"Angela, since you knew James had something to do with mom's death, why didn't you leave James?" Greyson's eyes were red, "You fell in love with him again and couldn't leave him, right?"

He strode up to Angela and grabbed her shoulders with both hands.

Lorenzo sat on the couch and kept silent, looking like he was in a daze. He had been like this since Elva's death.

Angela's shoulders hurt, but she didn't move.

Instead of answering Greyson's question, she turned her head and asked Luna with a slight tremor in her voice, "Luna, are you really sure that my mom's death has something to do with James?"

"Angela, you still don't believe Luna's words by now? She showed me the evidence. The person who chatted with mom on the Internet admitted that he was instructed by James! Moreover, the one who later deleted the chat records also had something to do with him!"

"Admit it! James is the one who found someone to get mom killed!"

The veins on Greyson's forehead popped out, and his eyes were bloodshot.

When he thought that he was so close to the bastard who killed his mother before, he just wanted to smash himself as hard as he could!

Angela still ignored him, but asked again, "Luna, are you really sure that my mother's death has something to do with James?"

As long as Luna said no, she would never tell her brother what Luna did!

However ...

"Angela, I know it's not easy for you. But it's the truth. Even if you want to deny it, it's still the truth," Luna said in a serious tone.

Angela clutched her shirt tightly, her chest tightening.

She had given Luna so many chances, but Luna had let her down over and over again ...

"It was hard for all of us when mom passed away. I know it's tough on you. But Mr. Harvey is not someone we can afford to mess with. Angela, just listen to me and leave. Your brother and I will find a way to send you abroad," Luna persuaded.

"Luna is right!" Greyson looked grim, "I will have my revenge for mom. You don't have to worry about it. I'll send you abroad now!"

He finished speaking and was about to leave.

Mom was gone. He couldn't let anything happen to Angela again!

Angela pulled him back and said in a tired voice, "Greyson, there's no need to be in such a hurry."

"How can I not be? James is our enemy. He killed our mother! How can I let you stay with him and let you give him children and be his wife? Huh?" The veins on Greyson's neck popped out. At this point, he looked so horrible.

"Greyson, give me ten minutes. If you still insist on letting me go abroad after ten minutes, I will agree, okay?"

Greyson hesitated for a moment and agreed with a grim face.

Angela took out her phone and called James, "Come in."

"Come in?" Luna asked cautiously, "Angela, who did you let in? You came with someone else?"

Angela's heart seemed to be clutched by a big invisible hand, "Luna, why do you look so nervous? Are you afraid that I'll bring someone over?"
