Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 85

The car in front moved slowly. James also started the car again, "You are one of the masters of the Harvey family, you don't need to ask for others' opinions on what you want to do, including me."

"Then what if... I ask you to let Angel go?"

Denise found out today that Angela was forced to work at the Dream Club by her son. Her mood was mixed, "She has suffered enough in these two years. Can you let her go?"

There was silence in the car.

They finally got past the congestion road and the car speeded up.

Denise opened her purse, closed it again, closed and reopened it again. She repeated the action, the sound from which was loud and clear in the car.

She looked sideways at him, "I see you don't like Jessica either, then that Angela broke her leg should have nothing to do with you, why do you..."

"Mom--" James interrupted her and said in a deep voice.

"I won't interfere in the matters between you and Dad and Auntie Lin, and you should stay out of my affairs."

There was a flash of awkwardness on Denise's face, but she quickly returned to normal. She closed her purse and held it in her hand and didn’t say a word again.

Less than half an hour after Greyson left, Mr. and Mrs. Lorenzo arrived.

Elva glanced around the ward, not finding Greyson, and said anxiously.

"Where's your brother? I heard he came to the hospital to visit you!"

So they came here not to visit her, just to find her brother. Angela's eyes darkened a bit, "My brother..."

Lorenzo interrupted her with rage when she just spoke the two words. "No matter what people outside say about Greyson, he has never talked back to me.

As a result, once you got out of jail, Greyson was not only talking back to me, he also wanted to run away from home. Was you egging him on it?"

“Me?” Angela pointed at herself, smile with angry, "Egging on?"

"Who else could it be, if it is not you?

You've had a lot of ideas since you were a kid. Greyson's been messing around with you a lot!

I don’t care about the usual petty things you’ve done before, but now you're actually egging him on to leave the Chante family!

He grew up loving and spoiling you, won't you feel guilty for this?"

Lorenzo yelled, and his face looked a little hideous from activation of emotions.

Angela stared at him, suddenly felt that he was a stranger, as if she had never known him before.

"Lorenzo, Angela is your daughter too, don't say it so hard."

There was heartache and anxiety in Elva's eyes, "Angela, tell mom, where did you hide your brother?"

Angela's lips trembled, and she hung down her head and said softly,

"I didn’t hide him."

"You think I'm talking hard?"

Lorenzo pointed at Angela and said to Elva,

"You are talking to her gently. Does she tell you the truth?!"

Elva released a long sigh and took Angela's hand, and then tears were falling down, "Angela, you have to think about us too.

You're no longer a member of the Chante family, so if your brother doesn't come home either, what should the others say about our family?"

Angela's body was tightened and stiff, she was gritting her teeth to hold back the sour in the corners of her eyes.

Elva tried to talk to her, "Even if you hate me and your dad, you still have to think about your brother and your sister-in-law.

Your brother can't do anything. How is he going to live if he leaves the Chante Group?

And your nephew and niece are still young, just a little over a year old, can you really bear to watch them suffer because of you..."

“Enough!” Angela shouted depressively. They just kept telling her to think for this person and that, why not tell her to think for herself?

Elva froze for a moment by her shouting, and the next monment, her face was filled with pain, tears raging out.

"A loving mother has many spoiled children, the brother and sister are like this now, just because you spoiled them!"

Lorenzo looked resentful and spoke in a lilting tone.

Elva was wiping her tears from the corner of her eyes, her voice was choking, "It's all my fault, if I had listened to you and disciplined them a little more strictly, things wouldn't have been..."

She wouldn’t become in this position.

"My brother went home and will not have any contact with me."

Angela clenched the corner of her own clothes very tight, and the moment she raised her head, her eyes looked bloodshot, "Is that satisfactory to you two?"

"So your brother went home already..." Elva said, lowering her breath.

Lorenzo was about to say something else while Angela spoke first.

"Mr. and Mrs. Lorenzo, you can go back now."

"Angela, mom and dad were just a little anxious, so we just blurted, didn't mean to harm you."

The coldness in her eyes made Elva heartache.

Angela lowered her eyes, the sunlight shone in through the window, her whole body was shrouded in a layer of light, which made her look unusually thin, "The two of you better hurry back. If someone sees you here and it reaches to Mr. James, you will blame me again."

Her voice was soft, with a vague hint of sarcasm.

"If it wasn’t because Greyson was here, you think I'd come here?"

Repeatedly being driven away by her, Lorenzo felt he looked awfully bad here and went out directly with a black face.

Elva stood in front of the hospital bed. There were a lot of words she wanted to say, but she didn't know what to say.

She looked at Angela awkwardly, then took out her wallet, pulled out a bank card, and shoved it into Angela's hand, "Take it."

"I'm not your kid any more, so I cannot accept it."

Angela coldly shoved the card back into her arms.

It almost killed Elva that Angela said she was not her kid. “You stubborn kid. ” She said, and tried to shove the bank card into Angela's hand again.

"Mom--" Angela looked up at her, her figure reflected in her tawny pupils, "This is the last time I will call you mother.

I'm not the same Angela of the Chante family anymore, and giving me a lot of allowance wouldn’t make me happy anymore."

She whispered in Elva's sad gaze,

"That’s it, let's pretend I never had you as a mother and you never had me as a daughter."

"Angela, you ..." Elva took a handkerchief and wiped her tears. Her words were at one time choked by sobbing.

At that moment, Lorenzo's impatient voice sounded outside as he was urging her to go back.

She cast a last longing look at Angela for a few moments before she answered and trotted off to find Lorenzo.

"Be obedient to your father when you are unmarried, obey your husband after you get married, and submit to your son when your husband died."

Angela laughed, tears streaming down her face.

She wiped the corners of her eyes, pulled away the covers and took out the gift box inside, no one could help her, now she could only rely on herself!

Angela stayed in the hospital for two more days before she was picked up by Denise and took her to the Harvey family’s house.

She had been looking for a chance to seduce James. However, in the two and a half days she had been at Harvey family’s house, she only saw him at dinner on the first day. She hadn't seen him since then, let alone carry out her plan.

At lunchtime on the third day, Denise and her were in a small talk. When she was completely unprepared, Denise suddenly said,

"It's your birthday tomorrow, and I want to throw you a birthday party."

“!”

Angela's pupils contracted and her chopsticks fell to the floor with a click.

The conversation between Jessica and her under the sycamore, Jessica running into her car in front of the Chante family’s villa deliberately, celebrities' accusations of her at her birthday party, and the scene when James broke her leg ruthlessly in the private villa, all of that swarmed to her, tearing her heart in turn.

28 September was a nightmare for her, a day she had deliberately tried not to think about for the past two years!
