Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

“You can put it on your plate.” Angela watched the movement of his chopsticks, as he picked up the chicken wings she had bitten. She said, “There are extra chicken wings. You can take them from the table if you want.”

She tried to block him but failed, and he easily took her chicken wing, “I think yours is more delicious.”

He took a bite; it was exactly the place where she bit. She didn’t know if he did it naturally or consciously.

“James.” She put down her chopsticks and looked at him gloomily.

James looked up at her and replied with what she had said before, “Don’t be so loud, I can hear you.”

“What do you want?” Word came after word from her.

“I said,” James swallowed the food in his mouth, took out a paper towel and wiped his stained lips, “Pursue you.”

Angela paused and sniffed, her voice was very light but full of hatred when she said those words. James, “Do you think I will accept your pursuit as if those things had never happened before?”

She would never forgive what he had done for the rest of her life.

Those physical pain, those spiritual humiliation, those memories tortured her day after day, and even in her dream. It was like a knife engraved in her soul and would never disappear.

James was affected by her hatred, the light in his eyes dimmed as if he was trapped in quicksand and his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were covered by it. He could not see the light and could not breathe, and what was left was pain.

“It’s your business to accept it or not, but it’s my business to pursue you or not.” He shook the wine glass, and then gulped down. Angela could see his Adam’s apple rolling and the goblet was soon empty.

Angela clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth in anger. “You don’t love me at all, and you just love yourself. You always take care of your own feelings, but you won’t consider how I feel!”

Her silhouette reflected in James’s eyes; his throat was tight as if it had been clutched.

The phone vibrated. Angela stood up with a straight face and left with her phone.

James got up and followed her.

“Don’t follow me!” She turned and looked at him, and roared in a low voice.

James also stooped; her undisguised disgust injured him. He licked his lips and said lightly, “Felix, Jessica and Danis are still here, be careful.”

Her indifference seemed to scoop him out. She said nothing and went straight to the exit of the banquet hall with her still buzzing phone.

James looked at her back. He withdrew before he could step forward. He saw her disappeared at the exit and a shadow flashed through his eyes.

“Hello?” Angela didn’t answer the phone until she was in the restroom.

The phone call was from the people arranged by Lawson Harvey, James’ grandpa. They have arrived at the hotel in a black SUV, asking her to get downstairs as quickly as possible.

She asked their license plate number in case of getting into the wrong car. They said there was only one black SUV down there, and it was more convenient to look for the vehicle than look for the license number.

She agreed and didn’t ask again. She said she would go down immediately, then hung up the phone, with her heart thumping.

She could soon leave James, which made her feel like an illusion, as if she were in a dream.

She took a deep breath, got out of the restroom, and waited for the elevator. She felt as if someone was following her, but every time she turned, there was nobody. Maybe she was too nervous and had a wrong impression.

When the elevator car arrived, she got into the elevator and a pair of hands stopped between her and the door.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

She looked at the hands and her heart missed a beat. Did James find any clues and go after her?

“Where are you going?” The elevator door reopened a little bit, it was Danis’ handsome but slightly vicissitude face.

Her heart was almost pumped to her throat but now she calmed down and ridiculed, “Even my boyfriend won’t control where I am going. Why do you care?”

Lawson’s people were waiting for her downstairs, so she didn’t want to entangle with him and pressed the close button. But before the door closed, Danis got in and stood beside her, looking dismal.

She frowned and pressed the open button, trying to catch the next elevator. If Danis still badged her, it may ruin her plan. But she did not expect that Danis would still follow.

“Danis, don’t forget what you promised me last time. You said as long as we could sit down and have a talk, you will leave whenever I show up.” She frowned and said.

He smiled bitterly, Anger and pain appeared alternately. “Do you think I want to behave this way?”

Just seen her with James, he was driven mad. He knew she was a merciless woman and Jessica was crippled because of her. He shouldn’t be obsessed by her and there would be no happy ending between them, but he just could not let her go.

The phone vibrated again, the same number was calling her.

There was a thin layer of sweat on her nose and she said coldly, “If you continue to pester me, I will call Jessica over and let her see how her good brother is still entangled with me.”

“Angela.” Danis grinded his teeth.

“Scared?” She sneered. Her eyes have been staring at the elevator screen, “If you are scared, get out of my way.”

He clenched his fist tightly, feeling helpless, and full of hatred. “James marries you for the sake of interests. Do you think he really loves you? You won’t be happy with him.”

“If you and Jessica stay away from me, I will be very happy.” The buzzing of mobile phone made her heart beat faster, and she didn’t want to waste time arguing with Danis.

She took a quick glance at the elevator screen. Without waiting for Danis to speak, she looked behind him and said, “Jessica, Adeline, you are just in time to… ”

Danis’ face changed slightly and he turned back subconsciously.

Taking advantage of this gap, she immediately went into the elevator, pressed the first floor, and pressed the close button several times in a row.

Close the door! Close the door! Close the door quickly!

She saw Danis turned from the crack of the door. Her heart was thumping and almost jumping out of her chest.

The moment when the door was about to close completely, Danis had already come running and stretched out his hand to block the door.

There was more sweat on her nose. Would she be wasting more time with him?

She heard James saying, “Are you in such a hurry, Danis?”
