Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 66

"It's not me that I won’t let him go."

Jessica said in a soft voice.

"Greyson has really..."

She paused for a moment, "He had crossed the line.

I'm afraid I'll hurt James’s heart if I speak up for Greyson again and again because Greyson has been standing up for me. I hope you won’t blame on me for that."

Hearing this, Greyson directly get rid of Luna’s hand. He rushed over and grabbed the phone. Then he hung up the phone and shouted, "You calcutlating whore!

You don’t need to beg her, Mom and Dad will find a way to get me out!"

"Greyson…"

Angela's brow furrowed, "Give me the phone."

Greyson looked so fierce. The veins on her neck popped out. He immediately yelled, ''No!

You don’t need to beg her!"

"Angela, here."

Luna snatched the phone with Greyson unconscious and gave it to Angela.

Raya watched in confusion. She was completely unaware of what was going on.

The cleaner at the Dream Club, how did he get involved with the young master, Greyson?

Toot…

While Angela took over the phone, it vibrated. Jessica sent a text message to her.

[I'm sorry I can't help you, but you can go negotiate with James, as long as he lets go, I have no problem with that.]

It ends with a smiley emoji.

Angela licked her dry lips. A dark expression flickering under her eyes.

Asking James for help?

Getting him to agree and let Greyson go would only be more difficult.

Jessica wouldn’t give in. Angela calls James and no one answers. The police wouldn’t release Greyson, either.

Having roughly caught up with the whole story, Raya kindly reminded, "Intentional destruction of public and private property, coupled with intentional injury… he’ll face more than one month’s detention."

She pointed down at the man who was talking to the police. Then she asked, "See?

That's my mentor, Sean, the best lawyer of Sailing Law Firm!

James hired him this time.

I have to tell you that my mentor can be very ruthless…”

"What are you saying about me behind my back again, little girl?"

Sean walked over and smiled at Angela. Then he grabbed Raya by her collar and took her away.

Luna looked so upset and asked, "What do we do now?"

"Don’t worry."

Greyson looked not concerned at all. He said, "Mom and Dad won't stand by and watch me end up in jail, I called them half an hour ago, and they should be almost here by now."

Luna's face paled. She glanced at Angela and scolded at Greyson, "Why do you have to call them?

Are you out of your mind?"

"Anyway, I'm not going to beg that bitch and her man!"

Greyson wrapped his arms around his chest. He sounded so indignant. "I’d rather die than to beg them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lorenzo and his wife rushed in.

Elva came up to Greyson and shushed him. Her eyes were red as if she had just cried. Lorenzo rushed straight to Angela and slapped on her face, shouting, "I've told you to stay away from our family. Why do you have to do this to me?"

His face blushed because of anger and he was panting heavily.

Angela felt her face burning with pain. She covered her cheek and apologized with her head hanging low.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

The smell of blood spread in her mouth, making her feeling sick.

Mom and Dad used to treat her and her brother the same, and they cleared the mess for them no matter what the two had done.

After what had happnened two years ago, she no longer had that privilege.

"Don't tell me that, I don't want to hear it!"

Lorenzo pointed his finger at the her. Every word coming out of his mouth was in a roar, "If you’re really grateful for how nice your mother and I have been to you, then stay away from our family from now on!"

Angela wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her thumb. She felt her throat tightening, and she was unable to utter a single word.

Raya was dumbfounded. She touched her chubby face and patted her own neck. Then she said, "Mr. Cage, is she really Lorenzo’s daughter?"

Sean nodded. Then he pulled her by the collar. She asked hastily, "Where are you taking me to?"

"To comfort her,” he said. “If my dad hit me like that, I'll be mad and cry."

The force on the back collar didn't let up; Raya was still in the same place after half a while of walking. She looked back at him and asked, "Mr. Cage?"

With a slight push, Sean pulled her closer to him and said, "You stay out of their family bullshit."

"I was the one that smashed things, and beat people. Why are you beating Angela?"

Greyson stood in front of Angela. His handsome face was grim. "Why are you so heartless, father?

You are so cold-hearted!"

Lorenzo was so furious that he almost went out of breath.

"They're just kids, don't get mad at them."

Elva patted him on the back and asked.

"Do you need pills?"

Lorenzo glared at Angela behind Greyson and answered, ''No!

No pill could stop me from being killed by the anger!"

Greyson added coldly, "You deserve it if you're going to die of anger!"

He had been living in shame day in and day out for the past two years, and every once in a while he would dream about the desperate look in Angela's eyes in prison. That almost drove him crazy. "The Smiths trust that calculating bitch so much, why don’t you trust Angela?"

Lorenzo patted himself on the chest, as if he would pass out because of anger in any second. "You...... you ......"

Angela stared at him in a daze. She felt so frustrated that she could barely breath.

Before she was eighteen, Lorenzo had never yelled at her for even once, but in the past two years, he did nothing but yelling at her.

The car accident two years ago had ruined everything for her!

"Greyson, stop talking."

Elva's eyes were red, and she took out the medicine with trembling hands. Then she said to Lorenzo, "Come on, just take the pills."

Lorenzo looked the other way and pushed her hand away.The pill bottle fell onto the ground, spilling pills all over the place.

"What... are you doing?"

Elva wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes and squatted down to pick up the pills. She was crying, "It’s all over the ground! How could you take those..."

Greyson wanted to help her pick up the pills, but he was afraid that would embarrass him.

Angela passed by him and picked up the pills with Elva.

“Get out!”

Lorenzo covered his chest with one hand and kicked Angela.

The people in the police station looked at each other, not knowing whether to help Angela or not. At last they all looked away, trying not to watch.

"I was told Lorenzo was a gentleman..."

Wrinkles on Raya's chubby face emerged because of confusion. She tried to go forward to help, but Sean stopped her.

Raya looked at him. Then she puckered her lips and said, "Mr. Cage, don't you feel sorry for her?"

"Two 10,000-word papers or helping her, it’s your call."

Sean let go of her and pushed his gold-rimmed glasses.

Hearing this, Raya hesitated. She stood still and didn’t know whether she should make the move.

Angela lay on the ground on one side. Her burned right leg was underneath her. She was sweating due to the pain.

She looked up at him. Cold tears slid down her cheek.

"Angela, are you OK?"

Luna frowned and knelt down. She wiped Angela’s tears and helping her up. Then she asked, "How’s your injured leg?"

Angela shook her head, using her trembling hand to wipe away the tears flowing out of her eyes.

The tears that nobody would feel sorry for would be nothing but a joke to her haters.

"What did I tell you guys...ahem ...?"

Lorenzo yelled at the top of his lungs, “She is not our family member any more, You all stay away from her!"
