Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 46

Angela turned to the gentle woman beside her brother, smiling, “Sister-in-law, long time no see."

"I haven't seen you for two years, how ...... did you become so thin?"

Luna looked at Angela’s extremely thin chin and her eyes reddened when she just opened her mouth.

Greyson wiped Luna’s tears with tender love in his face, "You just said you were happy to see Angela, how could you cry?"

"Are you the biological brother of Angela?"

Luna glared at him, tears dropping down her face, "Angela is so thin, she must have been suffering a lot in the past two years!"

"Greyson, Luna, let's have a talk somewhere else."

Angela looked around and found this was not a good place to talk, as there were so many people around.

If anyone told this to James and he knew she still had a connection with the Chante Family, all she had done during this period would be meaningless.

The couple knew Angela liked grilled fish, so they drove with her to a grilled fish restaurant.

Luna usually liked to eat grilled fish, but at this moment, sitting across from Angela and looking at the scars on her face and her thin cheeks, she didn’t want to eat any more.

Luna picked up her chopsticks and put them down again, "Angela, have you had a bad time these ...... two years?"

"Luna, you worried too much. Prisoners are common people after all, how bad can they be?"

Angela's eyes dimmed for a moment, then she smiled and gave Luna a piece of fish, "I did hear a lot of interesting stories in prison."

"Tell me about it?"

Seeing Angela’s unwillingness to talk about those sad things, Luna felt even worse, but she didn't force Angela to reveal it.

Greyson could not hide his emotions, so he was picking fishbones with gloomy expression, then he put the fish on his sister and wife's plates.

"There was a guy who was defrauding nearly 20 million yuan and liked to play games. When he was finally caught by the police at an internet cafe, he had only one request, asking the police if he could be allowed to finish the game first because he would get yelled at for hanging up midway."

"There was also a murderer who was careful and had been absconding for eight years, only to be spotted by a face recognition machine as he was entering a concert."

Angela laughed and told seven or eight funny stories about prisoners. Luna echoed from time to time, but they all knew that no one wanted to laugh, and laughing at this moment was only for each other.

"Don't talk about that!"

Greyson put down his chopsticks and asked with a hard look on his face,

"I heard that you were punished with kneeling and were molested and targeted in the Club, is that true?"

Luna touched Greyson with her elbow and hinted at him, but he was still staring at Angela, insistent on his question.

"It's just gossip.

Doesn't anyone else say I'm a vicious murderer?"

Angela paused for a moment, dropping her eyes.

Greyson stared straightly at her for a moment, picked up the beer on the table suddenly, took a gulp and snapped it onto the table. He said in a depressing tone, "Angela, you're lying."

Angela didn't respond, and just took a piece of fish and put it in her mouth, but she couldn't taste it.

That's a yes.

"Why don't you tell ...... about these things to us?"

Luna wore mixed expressions.

Luna knew very well the character of her sister-in-law, who was so arrogant but was teased to such degree now.

“Will it be different if I say it?

Angela put another piece of fish in her mouth and smiled to herself, "To worry you and Greyson?"

BANG!

Greyson put his beer onto the table so loudly that many guests from other tables looked over with curiosity.

"Keep your voice down!"

Luna twisted his arm.

"If no one in City A dares to go against James, then I'll go to the new secretary of the municipal party committee!"

Greyson stood up with the support of the table, then he roared with his scarlet eyes, "I don't believe James is the absolute monarch in the city!”

"Don’t be impulsive. Calm down."

Luna, unlike his rashness, had to think more, and tugged on his sleeve to make him sit down.

Greyson pulled away her hand, veins on his neck protruding, "Calm down? If I still calm down, Angela would be killed by others!"

Being yelled at by him like that, Luna was stunned for a moment and pursed her lips without saying a word, but her eyes were red.

"Luna didn't offend you. Why are you yelling at her?

Are you crazy?"

Angela put down her chopsticks and sighed then hinted at her brother.

Greyson had regretted when he yelled out, then he pretended to clear his throat and made his wife happy.

After his sweet words, Luna's face looked a little better.

"It's no use going to the new secretary of the municipal party committee."

Angela told them briefly about Raya helping her.

Then they fell into silence.

After a long time, Greyson rubbed his hair in agitation, "If there’s no way out, I'd like to run that bastard over with my car and go to jail!"

"You're not alone now, you should consider Luna and your two kids before you speak or do anything."

Angela looked at the bandages on his head that hadn't been removed yet. Her heart in cold gained some warmth.

It felt so good to have someone else care about her.

Greyson stretched his neck and said with his livid face.

"You don’t agree with all my suggestions, so am I supposed to watch you get screwed by that scum?

I can't do it anyway!"

"I didn't say I was going to wait to die."

Angela said in a soft voice as the two watched her.

"I've figured out a way to get out of the Club, you don’t need to worry."

The couple asked what the solution was, but Angela didn't told them.

Angela went back to the dorm after the meal.

Julia was also in the dormitory and was a little embarrassed to see her. Then Julia apologized after around over half an hour,

"I'm sorry about the thing today."

Angela didn’t know if she was apologizing for trying to make use of Angela to consort with James and the others, or for leaving her behind and coming back.

Hearing this, Angela made a soft sound to show her acknowledge, then she said nothing more about it.

"Angela."

It was like a cat scratching in Julia’s heart, Julia said with caution after some hesitation, “Was Miss Jessica's leg really ...... hurt by you?"

Angela's body stiffened a little, then she just made a low sound like just now.

"Miss Jessica is pretty and gentle and it seems that she is so good. Why did you hurt her leg?"

Julia asked as she walked in front of Angela.

"I just don’t like her."

Angela continued to sort out the clothes she just bought today without even raising her head, "Besides, I'm not trying to break her leg, but to kill her.

What a pity that she was so lucky to survive the accident."

Julia couldn’t say a word for a long time.

Angela, on the other hand, continued to sort out her clothes. Then she took out two pieces of clothing and put them on Julia's bed.

She didn’t like to owe favors.

"But I don't think that you're that kind of person."

Julia said suddenly.

Angela’s hands froze then she raised her head and looked at Julia with some mist in her eyes.

At that moment, someone was knocking at the door. Julia ran to open it.

Julia took the dress handed to her by her colleague. After unfolding the clothes, she broaden her eyes unbelievably, "Are you sure that this is for Angela but not for the cleaning staff?"

"Of course I'm sure.

I'm surprised too. It seems that everyone's clothes didn't change but to Angela.

If she wears the clothes, I suppose someone will make a complaint tomorrow!"

The colleague rolled her eyes and walked away.
