Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

Angela swallowed the meat and felt it a little greasy somehow.

“You know why?”

Julia wiped her eyes suddenly, and the oil on her hands was all over her face. “Because he just started his business then, and I could offer him money in that way.”

“Speaking of that, he was actually present and knew what was happening when I slept with the first guy. He pretended to be drunk and fall asleep because the guy would give him a large sum of money.”

“Did my boyfriend love me?

He loves me. I can feel it. But he just loves his career more.

Angela, human beings are complicated creatures. You can’t ask for too much.”

Angela handed her a tissue and nibbled on the chop.

Love or not, there is no in-between for her.

Neither of them spoke again as they sipped their soup.

When they finished, Julia cleaned up the mess. Then, she shoved the gift box into Angela’s arms, “It’s for you.”

“No, thanks.”

She didn’t like accepting presents for no reason.

“Don’t turn me down at the beginning.”

Shoving the gift box into her arms again, Julia came up to her and said.

“Remember our plan to seduce Mr. James?

It’s the prop.”

Hearing the word ‘seduce’, Angela’s eyes dimmed.

She used to put on facial masks, do skincare and haircare every day. She had made herself so exquisite but still failed to attract James’s attention.

Now she was covered with scars, even the one at the end of her eyebrow was the size of a fingernail. Her hands and feet were also full with calluses. Would he fall in love with her?

“Thanks, but I’ll drop the plan.”

She would no longer hope for a miracle, imaging that James would fall in love with her on day. So naive.

“Are you afraid that you might fail again?”

Julia tried to read her mind, “Then…. are you willing to stay at the Dream Club for the rest of your life?”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Angela clutched the sheet beneath her. Willing?

How could she be willing to do that?

She just had to.

“If you don’t want, go ahead and try it.”

Seeing that she was less resistant, Julia continued.

“The worst result is a failed seduction. Mr. James gets mad and punishes you, but don’t mind if I say that, it couldn’t be worse than you are now.”

Angela pursed her lips and her eyes dimmed.

Even if she didn’t want to admit it, what Julia had said was the truth.

James had broken one of her leg and sent her to prison for two years, and now made her humiliated at the Dream Club… Even if she got him mad again, how much worse could it be?

Her expression slightly changed. Having been working in the clubs for many years, Julia was good at reading people’s minds, and she could feel that Angela was a bit moved.

Julia stuffed the gift box into her arms, “Now matter how excellent he is, he is a man. All men have the same weakness.

Mr. James is not a one-woman man. Like you said, he loves Jessica, but he didn’t reject your when you professed your love. That’s a proof.”

Angela didn’t refuse this time. She took the gift box with her slightly trembling hands.

She didn’t want to live obscurely under James and Jessica anymore. She wanted to leave! Even in her dream she wanted to leave!

“That’s right. Let’s take a shot. At least there’s a chance you may win. If you loss, your life just go on like now.”

Julia pointed at the gift box in Angela’s arms with her chin, “I’ve asked a lot of people, and tried it myself. These three erotic lingerie are really good.”

Angela’s lashes fluttered, like a butterfly. Her lips was as pale as her face, and sweat pearled on her nose.

Men like James probably had a thousand ways to make her suffer, but she survived when he broke her leg. What’ was the big deal? The worst scenario was to go through that kind of pain again…

“Why don’t you open it and have a look first?”

Julia took the gift box, unwrapped it, and carried out one of the erotic lingerie, which would show most of her body and was as thin as a wafer, “If you are not satisfied, you can…”

Snap.

The door was slightly open.

From the moment Julia took out the erotic lingerie, Angela’s heart as well as her body tensed up. When she heard the door was opened, she grabbed the gift box and the erotic lingerie in Julia’s hand and stuffed it into her quilt in no time.

“Do I disturb you?”

Jessica sat in her wheelchair, biting her lips, and said softly.

“I’m sorry for not knocking the door in advance.”

Danis stood at the back of the wheelchair and glanced at Angela coldly. Then he looked elsewhere with a frown when seeing her pale face.

Julia, who was sitting on the bed, immediately stood up when she saw them enter. She lowered her head and dared not to look at them. Her hands that were pressed to the sides of her body was trembling slightly.

She had heard from several of her customers that Jessica would marry James one day. If the Smiths knew that she was assisting Angela to seduce James… she swallowed and dared not to think about it any more.

“What’s the matter?”

Angela asked coldly and wiped the sweat on his forehead calmly.

Danis looked at Angela, and hesitated for a while. Then he said before Jessica was about to speak.

“Jessica, I’ll be waiting for you at the doorway. Call me at any time.”

“Okay.”

Jessica nodded with a smile.

Danis turned his head and was about to leave.

“You’d better not go out, Mr. Danis.”

Angela stopped him, said sarcastically, “Aren’t you worried that I might hurt her if you leave her alone here?”

Holding the doorknob, Danis stopped and turned around. His handsome face stiffened, and her gaze on Angela was like a sharp blade.

Julia gave a dry cough, and winked at Angela continuously, but it was no use, as she totally ignored her.

She bowed her head a little more, trying to make herself more invisible.

“It’s okay. You can go out if you prefer, brother.”

Jessica’s pretty face looked innocent, “I believe it was just an accident two years ago. Angela didn’t meant to hit me by a car. She was not bad in nature.”

No matter what Jessica said, Danis was still concerned about her and insisted on staying in the room.

“What are you doing here?”

Angela pursed her lips. She was pretty well disgusted by the two siblings. “You may just leave if there is nothing else. That would be on my wish.”

Danis’s brows furrowed, “Jessica came here to apologize to you in person. Do you have to be so aggressive?”

“Apologize?”

Angela forced a smile, but you can see no smile in her eyes, “If you two are here to apologize, I get it. Now you may go.”

Hearing this, Jessica struggled to get up from the wheelchair. Danis hold her in a hurry to protect her from falling down.

“Angela, it’s all my fault for having spilled hot water on you that day. I’m sorry for your leg.”

Jessica bowed at ninety degrees and said sincerely.

“Sorry.”

Angela looked at Jessica indifferently. It seemed inevitable that she had been defeated by Jessica.

“Yesterday Greyson went to the Dream Club. He beat and scolded me, even splashed hot water on me. I don’t blame anyone. I deserve it.”

Jessica straightened up and said softly.

“But I’m really sorry for having hurt you by mistake, and I hope you can forgive me.”
