Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 49

But...... she couldn’t.

If she did that, James wouldn’t let the Chante family off!

"Angela, are you too ashamed to ask me for money?"

Jessica deliberated for a moment and proposed,

"Then, Mr. Lorenzo should be here soon. I may as well help you persuade them to agree your return to the Chante family."

Someone beside laughed,

"Here, Mr. Lorenzo just arrived."

"No, thank you Miss Jessica."

Holding the anger that raced through her cells, Angela tried to smile, but there was no slightest smile in her eyes.

"Are you worried that Mr. Lorenzo won't approve of your return?"

Jessica took her hand and advised gently,

"Don't worry. How could you know whether it works or not if you don’t even have a try?

You are a member of the Chante family after all, so Mr. Lorenzo won’t be so merciless to you."

After she finished, she didn't even give Angela a chance to refuse and waved at Mr. Lorenzo, “Uncle Lorenzo, can you and Mrs Lorenzo come over here?"

"I said no, don't you understand me?!"

Angela pulled her hand out violently, and she said word by word.

Her father didn't even want to see her, and if they did, there must be conflicts.

As for Angela’s mother, she didn't know her attitude towards her yet.

Jessica looked at the hand that had been thrown away in surprise and her pretty face was filled with disappointment.

Her eyes turned red, but she held back the tears as it was about to burst out.

"What's wrong with you, Angela?"

Danis walked to Angela, and his amber eyes were full of disgust and anger, "Jessica was kind enough to help you, how could you treat her with such attitude?"

Seeing this, the people around gathered together and murmured.

"Miss Jessica, whose leg was hurt by Angela, did not accuse her but was kind enough to help her, but Angela was not grateful to Jessica and was quite arrogant and treated Jessica so bad!"

"In this world nowadays, good people don't get rewarded, but those who owe money and favors are all masters!"

"Angela really doesn't know what's good for her!"

Hearing the crowd’s accusation and disdain, Angela took a deep breath and tried to hold back her anger that was about to burst out of her chest, "If I make Miss Jessica and Mr. Danis unhappy, I apologize."

She bowed ninety degrees, "I'm sorry.

But you two don’t need to bother to worry about me, and I hope you and your sister will respect my opinions, thanks."

After saying that, Angela turned around to leave, but she just ran into the approaching Mr. And Mrs Lorenzo.

Lorenzo wore a suit and looked handsome and gentle. Elva, beside Lorenzo, wore a long light gray evening dress, who was elegant and delicately beautiful.

When the two saw Angela, their expressions both changed.

Elva's eyes glittered with some tears, and she wanted to go forward subconsciously. But she just took one step, then she was pulled back by Lorenzo.

She lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes, not looking at her daughter any more.

Angela wanted to call them, but she didn’t speak out. It was like a breath blocking her throat, which made her so uncomfortable.

Even after two years, she still found it hard to believe that her parents, who had always loved her, would choose to abandon her to protect the interests of the Chante family.

"Mr. and Mrs Lorenzo, don't blame Angela, and she didn't say anything."

Jessica raised her head and forced a smile.

"Did she bully you again?"

Lorenzo asked in a louder voice.

Jessica dodged, not daring to look at him, “Uncle Lorenzo, you misunderstood. Angela didn't bully me."

"Angela!"

Seeing this, Lorenzo directly concluded that Angela was bullying Jessica, and he roared,

"Jessica didn't blame you, so you could get out from jail, how can you be ungrateful?!"

Danis kept a straight face and glared at Angela coldly.

He used to just think she was naughty but not bad. He just realized Angela was a ruthless woman when she hit Jessica two years ago!

"What have I done that you say I am ungrateful?"

Angela looked straight into Lorenzo's eyes. She wore no expression, but her hands clenched her clothes so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

Lorenzo was caught up in the question. His face turned red with attention from the crowd, "We all see you bullied Jessica just now!"

Angela thought she could hold it in, but she overestimated herself, "You all see?

Did you see that?"

She sneered with obvious sarcasm, "Didn't you used to teach me to look at things not just at the surface, but also at the essence, cause and effect, and evidence?

Have you seen it?

Why are you so sure that I was bullying Miss Jessica?"

"If you didn’t bully Jessica, how could she be so aggravated?"

Lorenzo had never argued with people with no manners in public like this. At this time his ears, neck and face were so red that it seemed to bleed.

Angela felt it was so ridiculous, "Why should I be blamed when Miss Jessica is aggrieved?

Couldn't it be someone else who had bullied her?

Or she was staging a show on purpose?"

Slap!

Angela was slapped suddenly. She felt the pain and heat on her face, which just like the day she'd been slapped by her father in the Dream Club.

Lorenzo pointed at Angela with one hand, and clutched his chest with the other. His face was so red and it looked like he was quite uncomfortable.

"Take the medicine!"

Elva took out the medicine from her handbag in a hurry and said as she fed it to Lorenzo,

"Angela, listen to me, don't be mad at your dad."

"I...... I'm not her...... dad!"

Even though Lorenzo was uncomfortable, he still didn't forget to emphasize that Angela had nothing to do with the Chante family.

Jessica was so anxious as if she was about to cry, and her red eyes on her fair face were particularly obvious, "Mr. And Mrs Lorenzo, I really don't blame Angela.

She’s really wretched that she's working at the Dream Club all this time, so just let her go back to the Chante family."

The crowd looked at each other when they heard the Dream Club.

“We don’t have the honor to have such an unkind family member!"

Lorenzo was much better after taking the medicine, but such a situation made him embarrassed, and his face was still red.

Angela raised her head slightly, holding back the tears in her eyes.

The incident caused so much discussion and attention that Mr. And Mrs Smith rushed over in a hurry.

Mrs Smith walked to Jessica, and checked her daughter carefully. Then she straightened up and walked to Angela after she found Jessica was fine, "Angela, why are you here?"

She asked with disgust and dislike.

"I’m leaving now."

Angela glanced at her parents who were comforting Mr. And Mrs Smith, and she felt a great pain in her heart.

She loosened the evening dress which was creased because of her grasp and turned to leave.

“Wait!”|

Mrs Smith yanked her from behind, and asked aggressively, "Who ask you to come here?

Do you have an invitation?

If you didn't have an invitation, you'd be out right now.

Otherwise I'm afraid, you, a murderer, will poison others or do something else that will endanger our safety!"

Angela pursed her lips and glanced at the crowd, among which everyone, including her parents, either had nothing to do with it or stood against her, not even a single person stand out and say something for her.

Looking at Angela’s helplessness, Danis's heart can’t help aching. When he was about to say something, he was kicked by his father.

He cleared his throat with difficulty, then turned his eyes away from Angela.

"I invited her, so what?"

At that moment, James's voice sounded.
