Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 99

"I’ll go out first."

Angela was distracted and tried to walk around her to get out.

But Julia grabbed her arm and asked with a forlorn look.

"My boyfriend thinks I'm dirty and doesn't want me, do you think I'm dirty too?"

"No."

Angela repeated it again, "I'll go out first."

Julia still didn't let go and her eyes already became red, "Then do you think I'm particularly snobbish because I want to get to know James, Jessica and Greyson through you, so you don't want to treat me as a friend?"

Angela looked at her and frowned slightly, not saying anything.

“My boyfriend is gone and my friends are gone, and I am really a loser."

Julia let out a bitter laugh and let go of her, and the loss and pain under her eyes were hard to hide.

She didn't continue to pester Angela and moved to the side with her head down.

"Like you said, people are complicated, and I've never asked my friends to be nice to me totally, as long as they don't hurt me."

Angela gave her a glance and went out.

Julia jerked her head up, her depressed eyes became bright, "Angela, am I still your friend?"

Angela went out with her wallet and phone and didn’t answer Julia.

It was almost twelve o'clock and there were many pedestrians and vehicles on the road.

Angela stood in front of the Dream Club and looked around, realizing that she had no idea where she was going. She came out just because she didn't want to argue with Julia about the friend issue anymore.

Were they friends?

Actually, she couldn't tell.

Toot--The phone vibrated.

[I've ordered you a takeaway, your favourite food. I'll call you later, don't run around!]

It was from her brother.

Angela stood in front of the Dream Club for more than ten minutes and received the takeaway ordered for her. She didn't want to go back to the dormitory, so she got a room at the hotel near the Dream Club.

Under great stress, even the most delicious food lost their flavor.

Angela only ate a little. She lay on the bed, curled up in a daze.

“!”

She suddenly remembered that she didn’t take the erotic lingerie with her and sat up immediately.

Her brother said he had prepared it for her as well, but he always did things carelessly and she was worried.

Angela stood up, briefly tidied up her clothes, went to the nearby mall and bought Julia's favorite fried rice, and then went back to the dormitory.

“Take it.” Angela put the takeaway in front of Julia and went to the closet to get the gift box.

"I don’t have the mood to eat."

Seeing her favorite fried rice, Julia's eyes flashed as she looked at Angela and asked.

"Are you going to... seduce James today?"

Angela thought the gift box was too eye-catching. She removed the packaging and put the three sets of underwear directly into a plastic bag, "Try to eat a little. Your ex-boyfriend already fell in love with another woman. He won't feel sorry for you or feel guilty about it or anything, even if you torture yourself like that. The only one who will suffer is yourself."

She didn't answer her question, as if she hadn't heard it.

Julia took the hint and didn’t want to ask any more questions, but after some hesitation, she still said.

"Angela, you'd better not go, that plan doesn't work." She bit her lip and said with embarrassment.

"I was thinking of making you owe me a favor and didn't give it much serious consideration."

"I’m a little sleepy, I'll take a nap." Angela put the bag next to the pillow, took off her shoes, lay on her side, but she couldn’t fall asleep.

Julia probably knew Angela was pretending to sleep, but she didn't say anything.

The only sound that remained in the dorm was the light sound of chewing.

Every minute and second was unusually torturous for Angela, and it seemed as if a century had passed before the phone finally rang.

She took a deep breath and picked up the phone with trembling fingers.

A magnetic male voice rang out on the other side, "Hello, this is HH Real Estate, do you need to buy a house in the near future..."

Angela frowned and simply hung up the phone, lying on the bed again.

"Angela." Julia walked over to the bed and pushed Angela lightly, her voice was very soft, "I think even if you seduce James successfully, he will not let you go. You'd better think about it seriously, don't be so impulsive."

Sitting up, Angela put her hair behind her ear and said seriously.

"I've thought this through. Don't worry, you won't be involved if something goes wrong."

If something went wrong, she didn’t need Julia or her brother to take the responsibility, she would take full responsibility herself.

"That's not what I meant, I'm not afraid if I was involved!"

Julia explained with a flushed face, "I just think that now it’s a law-based society, everything can be solved by law. You don’t need to use this kind of way..."

Toot--

Toot--

The sound of phone vibrating interrupted her.

Angela glanced at the caller ID and picked up the phone.

"Room 506, Angela, come over."

Greyson's voice was a little hoarse, with a tiredness he had never felt before.

Angela agreed and hung up the phone, then she put on her shoes and carried her bag.

Julia pulled her back and said with a complicated expression.

"Angela, are you really not going to think about it anymore?

No customer dares to harass you during this time, and the supervisor didn't embarrass you, either. Maybe you don’t need to be in such a hurry to do that?"

"No one harasses me or embarrasses me now, but what about later?"

Angela freed herself, "Even if no one embarrasses me later, am I going to tell my kids in the future that I work at a club?"

Julia's eyes dodged and mumbled.

"Actually, it's not that embarrassing. There are many people doing the same work as us, and they also got married and had children. It's not as stifling as you say."

"I'm not like you." There was only sarcasm under Angela’s eyes, "You guys can leave after you save up enough money, you can leave this city to marry and have children, but I don't have the right to leave here.

If I don't take this chance, I may have to stay here until I’m old enough to die."

She laughed at herself.

"Maybe at that time many people will tell their kids, look, it's Angela, she's been working in the club all her life."

"Well... be careful, if something goes wrong, abandon the plan and think of an excuse to muddle through." Julia said.

Without waiting for Angela’s reply, she added.

"If it doesn't work and you make James angry, find a way to let me know and I'll go find Jessica.

She's so nice, even if she knows you seduce James, she will understand your difficulties and help you plead for mercy."

“I don’t need it, thank you all the same.”

There was coldness in Angela's eyes. She turned around and walked away.

Julia tugged her from behind and persuaded sincerely.

"Angela, do you have to suffer just for your dignity?

It's no big deal to ask a rival in love for help, and I think Jessica is very nice, she won’t laugh at you for that."

"Which do you choose, suffer a little, or apologize to your ex and say you are wrong?"

Angela freed herself and asked indifferently.

Julia didn't know why she suddenly asked this question, but she became a bit agitated, "I sacrificed so much for him, but he cheated me and is with someone else. It's obviously his fault, why should I apologize?

I'd rather eat shit than apologize to that jerk!"

"Unlike you, I'd rather eat shit and die than ask Jessica for help."

Greyson called again. Angela didn't argue with Julia anymore, as her expression was complicated. She went out with the bag.
