Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

James grabbed his hand, moved it away and said indifferently, “Anything you ask for?”

Rouco stiffened and didn’t make a sound.

He had just said that as a gesture, who knew what James would ask for, in case it went against them?

Besides, with so many people in the Harvey family, if James only made one request, who would do it then? It would be unfair to ask only him!

James’ mouth curled up in a mocking arc, “If it’s just polite words, Uncle shouldn’t say it in the future, in case I take it seriously and make a request and you don’t agree, won’t it be embarrassing for both sides then?”

Who wouldn’t say nice things? But he doesn’t need to.

Rouco was thus bluntly demolished, his face flushed red with embarrassment. The old man had died and his nephew was getting more and more arrogant!

“Well, let’s not argue about these frivolous things, what are we going to do about the aftermath when Dad is gone?” Harvey family’s eldest daughter asked with a frown.

As soon as the words left his mouth, a sudden noise came from the lift entrance.

Rouco was in a bad mood when he was publicly humiliated and yelled at his bodyguards, “What did you invite you here for? Whoever’s causing trouble should be thrown out, the old man won’t even leave in peace!”

He ordered this, but the noise grew louder.

“Looks like Mrs. Adeline,” Angela said as she looked away and thought one of them looked like Adeline.

With Mr. Lawson gone, what were the Smith family doing here? And there seemed to be a lot of people coming.

James looked after him, his brow furrowing imperceptibly as he shifted his position, shielding Angela as a whole behind him.

“Get out of my way, all of you!” Adeline brought a number of bodyguards with her and pushed through the crowd, rushing forward in an aggressive manner.

Grandpa Smith followed in her footsteps.

There were a number of journalists behind them.

“What brings you here at this time?” Jason greeted him and took Adeline’s hand as if no one else was around, “The old man just passed away and I’m not available to spend time with you today.”

Denise has mockery in the corner of her eye… I’m impressed that Mr. Smith can still keep his face intact after all this!

“Who asked you to accompany? Don’t you give yourself so much face!” Adeline pushed Jason away with great disgust and wiped her hands on her body, “It’s because the old man died that I’m here!”

Jason wasn’t angry when he was thrown off, his gaze was all doting and gentle, “Don’t be so angry, it’s not good for your health.”

Angela looked on and frowned, feeling a little sick.

Doesn’t Mr. Smith feel bad watching his wife doing this with other men?

Taking in her reaction, James gathered her coat around her, “Nothing more for us, go home.”

He wrapped his arms around her waist and tried to leave.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

But only two steps out before Adeline yanked her arm from behind, “Wait, you can’t leave!”

James looked down, his eyes falling on the hand she was clutching his arm, the bottom of his eyes growing cold.

Adeline looked uncomfortable at him and subconsciously withdrew her hand.

“Got any paper?” James then withdrew his gaze and looked at Angela.

Angela didn’t know what he wanted paper for, but nodded and took a packet of tissues out of her handbag and handed them to him.

He pulled out a tissue, frowned and wiped the spot where Adeline had touched it, then tossed it aside in the bin.

He was too dirty to be touched by such an impure woman!

There were snickers in the crowd and the Harvey family juniors were even more tongue-tied –

“Sango thinks she’s dirty!”

“If it were me, I’d be too dirty for her, my son and daughter are so old and still restless, who knows how many people she’s slept with?”

“And Missy from a bookish family, I pooh, just like her father, they’re all shameless old things!”

These people say bad things, but Angela doesn’t think they’re wrong.

Jessica and Danis are now married and have children, but Adeline is still openly having an affair with someone. Or does she know it’s wrong and thinks it’s okay?

“That’s enough! She’s the eldest, what are you guys babbling about?” Adeline is Jason’s white moon and he can’t hear anyone talking about her like that.

The group of juniors whispered cheekily and without fear.

“James, is it humiliating for you to wipe your hands with a tissue when I touch you?” Adeline’s face was flushed, feeling both embarrassed and aggrieved.

How could he humiliate her like that when she had done nothing wrong to James?

As much as Jason liked her, James hated her, and a little impatience had coloured his bitter brow, “Mrs. Adeline something wrong?”

“What kind of attitude is that?!” Adeline questioned loudly.

James tugged his lips and sneered, “What kind of attitude do you want? Like my dad? Sorry, can’t do it.”

He didn’t have the patience to pester her and walked out with Angela in his arms.

“Wait-” Adeline wanted to grab his arm again, but fearing he would humiliate her with another tissue, she trotted in front of her.

Jason was also unhappy with James’ attitude, “Your Mrs. Adeline called out to you for something and you couldn’t wait a little longer to hear what she wanted to say? How did I come up with a son like you who has no family upbringing!”

Denise’s patience had reached its breaking point and she sneered, “You think James wants to have an unashamed father like you?”

It wasn’t enough for him to kneel to that woman, now he has the nerve to ask their son to do the same!

“Denise, I’m not talking to you, so don’t you dare interfere here!” Jason was full of disgust.

Snap!

Denise slapped him right across the face.

It’s okay for her to intervene if she doesn’t interfere, right?

Jason covered his punched face and with anger in his eyes, he raised his hand to hit Denise, but his hand was stopped in mid-air.

“Move my mother and ask me?” James clutched his wrist and pushed him away with a sharp force, his handsome face expressionless.

Jason staggered back several steps before he could barely hold on to the wall and stand still, his face a grimace.

He helped Adeline so much, and the latter didn’t appreciate it, “Can’t help anything, loser!”

She walked up to James and pointed to her stomach, “James, your father and I slept in the same bed a while ago, you know that, right? I have your father’s baby now, and I’ll get a share of the shares and money you’re holding!”

When the words fell, everyone was stunned.

Angela found out that she still overestimated Adeline.

Is it true that people like this are born into a bookish family? And Mr. Smith, he’s a big socialite too, isn’t he ashamed to watch his wife do this?

Grandpa Smith was also a little embarrassed to be looked at by so many people with such eyes.

But he has no choice now, the Smith family is having money problems and if they get some money from the Harvey family they will be saved!

James looked at Adeline sarcastically, without making a sound.

Jason coughed dryly and said, “James, your Mrs. Adeline is carrying your younger sibling, so it’s only right that you get a share of her inheritance.”

“Heh!” Angela was so angry she couldn’t help herself, “Your son and daughter, they’re not James’, so why should you share what’s in his hands?”

Do you need a face?
