Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 119

James gazed at her steadily with his obscure look, without making a sound.

This time, Angela did not bow her head as before. She also looked at him steadily, with no humble or overbearing. There was also some provocation and arrogance hidden in her look.

This kind of look reminded him of her two years ago. James’s throat rolled and his gaze fell on the reddish patch on her neck, “Did Danis come to you?”

It was a question but James said in an affirmative tone, with jealousy he didn’t detect in himself.

The bottom of Angela’s eyes dimmed for a moment, and she sneered.

“Thanks to you, everyone in your circle knows about my slutty ways, and even Mr. Danis wants to keep me as a mistress.”

“Keep you a mistress?” James tapped his fingers on the bed a little faster, intentionally ignoring the inexplicable irritation in his heart, and snorted coldly,

“You can’t wait to cling to him without him paying for it, right?”

Angela looked straight into his eyes, then laughed lightly, and averted her gaze, “No matter who it is, as long as he can take me out of the Dream Club, I can’t wait to cling to him.”

She bent down and came up to him, her voice lowered and the curvature of her mouth converged, “Are you satisfied with this answer?”

James’s action of snapping the bed paused slightly. His fists clenched slightly and then he leaned forward and reached out to cup her chin, “Danis is not capable of taking you away, so you don’t need to waste your efforts on him.”

Angela moved his hand away, straightened herslef up, and took a few steps back to distance herself from James.

“You crippled his sister’s leg, and he just got engaged to Cathleen. Do you think he will care about you?”

“Even if he tries to take you out of the Dream Club despite everything, as soon as his mother, his sister or his fiancee raises the slightest voice of doubt, he will abandon you without hesitation, because of his guilt towards Jessica and the so-called justice he insisted on or the face of the Smith family.”

“At that time, you will only suffer more.”

James’s look was the same as before, but his slightly clenched hands were loosened. His bony fingers were tapping on the table, which was a small gesture that he would only make when he was extremely annoyed.

Angela glanced at him lightly and said, “I’d love to.”

Hearing this, James frowned and reached out to loosen another button on his clothes. He pulled a long face and his eyes were seemingly filled with gloom.

Angela was in a good mood, “The chicken soup Gabriela asked me to bring has already arrived. I still have work to do, so I’ll leave first.”

Without another glance at him, she curled her lips and went out under his dizzying gaze.

The phone vibrated. Angela looked at the caller ID and her eyes softened a bit. She picked up the phone, “Sister-in-law-”

“Long story short.” Luna’s voice was faster than usual.

Angela’s hand clutching the phone tightened, her body became tense because of her words, “Sister-in-law... is something wrong?”

Luna was desperately anxious, “After mom and dad went to see you yesterday, Dad lost his temper when he came back. He confiscated your brother’s bank cards, cell phone, computer, and so on, preventing him from giving you money secretly or having any more contact with you.”

“Your brother didn’t listen, so dad just locked him up and he’s not allowed to go anywhere.

Mom persuaded dad a few words, saying that at least you’re their daughter, but dad didn’t listen.”

She sighed and digressed, “Okay, stop talking nonsense. Your brother asks if you are okay.

Did James embarrass you after discovering that you drugged and installed a camera to record everything?

“...No.” From the time it happened until now, James didn’t blame her at.

Angela didn’t know what he thought, but she didn’t think he would be kind enough to let her go.

Hearing this, Luna heaved a sigh, and a few sobs came faintly, “It’s all your brother’s fault. That idiot never achieves anything, but he always makes troubles for you.

Angela, don’t worry about it. Tell me if James embarrasses you, maybe I can help a little bit.”

She stuttered in her last sentence, speaking without much confidence.

Having such a sister-in-law was really a great privilege for Angela, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I...”

“Angela, dad is home. I will hang up now and call you later!”

Luna said in a panic and hung up the phone Angela looked at the black screen of her phone, smiled bitterly, and walked to the elevator.

DING!

The elevator arrived.

Sean exited the elevator gracefully with his briefcase, while his empty hand tugged at Raya who was crouching on the ground and not moving.

“Master, you can come by yourself. Why do you take me with you? Boohoo...I don’t want to...Ah, I have my period and my stomach hurts. I have to go back!”

Raya crouched on the ground with a crumpled face, on the verge of tears.

Sean turned around, raised his eyebrows, and looked at his rogue apprentice on the ground. Then he clasped his briefcase under his armpit, bent down, and easily picked up Raya, who was squatting on the ground and not willing to go any further.

Raya fluttered like a shrimp, who was about to get into the oil pan, still yelling, “Help, I’m being molested!

Anyone here? Someone has robbed a woman in daylight, help-”

“Help me.”

She swallowed the two words when she saw Angela, “Wow, Angela, you’re here too!”

Angela hummed and whispered,

“Hello, Miss Raya.”

“Just in time!”

Raya pinched Sean’s armpit twice and landed smoothly. She thought for a moment and said,

“My master said he’d take you to dinner and apologize to you!

After we visit Iceberg, let’s go to dinner together!”

Angela glanced at Sean, whose face flushed and still forcing himself to act calmly for the sake of his image, and then she looked at Raya, “I...”

“Ah, did you have your dinner?”

Raya stammered and interrupted her words. Then she didn’t wait for Angela’s answer and answered the question herself,

“It’s early, so you must be hungry. What do you like to eat? I’ll make a reservation first!”

She stretched out her phone and began to tap the screen.

“Miss Raya, It is not necessary.” Angela said, “I’ve met Mr. Sean only a few times, and he’s never done anything wrong to me.

By the way, both of you have helped me several times, so I am the one who should say thank you.”

Raya put away her phone and pouted,

“He said you approached me with evil intentions and told you to stay away from me in the future. This is why he is sorry for me and sorry for you!”

She grunted heavily, glared straight at Sean with her big watery eyes, and shouted in a long-drawn-out tone,

“Master-!!!”

“Miss Angela, it was presumptuous of me to say it last time.”

Sean rubbed Raya’s bun with deep affection, and turned his head to talk to Angela,

“And I hope you can come to have dinner with us.”

Angela politely refused, “Mr. Sean is too polite. Miss Raya’s status is not ordinary. It’s natural that you would think of me that way, so you don’t need to take this matter to heart.”

“Angela...” Raya took her hand and nestled pitifully, “You are angry, so you are not willing to eat with me?”
