Desperate Lovers

Chapter 9 I'm Not Done With Her Yet

Danis didn't pay attention. He placed the chicken soup on table and set up for Angela carefully.

Then he turned to James and flickered his chin, “Let’s go out and have a talk.”

James took a shallow smile coquettishly as he already expected this.

“We can talk here.”

Angela interrupted them by seeing how unwilling Danis was, even she didn’t understand at all,

“Mr. Harvey, I will come back later when you finish.”

Then she prepared to leave her bed.

A lighter flew over when she touched the quilts. It hit the back of her hand hard.

James frowned and glanced at her, “Did I ask you to move?

Lie down properly.”

Then he turned back to Danis and curled his lips,

“Angela is very obedient. Just talk straight.”

By seeing Angela's swollen hand, Danis got livid and questioned him aggressively, “James, what will

Jessica think if you keep her around?”

James played with his ring and looked up at him.

“Then what would you suggest me to do?”

“Get her out of the city.”

Danis glanced at Angela, and then forced himself to look away.

Angela's chest ached. She bit her lip unconsciously and didn’t spit out a word.

A murderous look flashed across James’s slender eyes, and got masked right after.

He replied with a doubtful look.

“Angela has a positive attitude towards work. She also works really hard. There’s no reason for me to

dismiss her.”

“The Dream Club is a gorgeous and attractive workplace for job seekers. You can simply find someone

else to replace her.”

Danis got furious and broke a chair, “How about I recruit her instead, Mr. Harvey. What do you think?”

He could hardly retain his composure.

James tidied up his customized suit. He responded with a mild look, “Honestly, I don’t want to turn you

down for our deep friendship.

But let me tell you the truth.

I still enjoy tormenting her rather than anyone else.”

“What else do you want?

“Anything fun to torment a girl like her?”

“I’m sorry...”

Angela had enough of their conversation on exchanging her as a gift. She took a deep breath and

looked at Danis,

“Mr. Danis, I don’t want to change my job at this moment. Thank you anyway”

“Angela!”

Danis turned to her inconceivably.

“Do you know what you're talking about?”

She knew for sure Danis was trying to help her.

But Jessica had already pushed her to hell. She didn’t want Danis to get involved, neither for grudge

nor kindness.

“I understand that I offended you last night, Mr. Danis.

I am willing to do anything to make you feel relieved. I don’t even care if you want me to kneel down

again.”

Danis looked at Angela with a fixed face. He could barely breathe after hearing her words.

He didn't understand why Angela acted like this.

“Do you think I won’t let you go?”

Angela kept her head down. She was afraid of looking at him. Danis chuckled, “Guess I've been nosy

all along, Miss. Chante. Take care.”

By the time the door closed heavily, Angela felt relieved somehow.

Not until she finished, a chilling voice came overhead. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“You’ve learned all the tricks to rekindle your lost love.

It seemed like you made a big progress in these years, Angela.”

She was a little confused when he snickered,

“But everyone in the Smith family wants to tear you apart.

It’s suicide if you still hook up with Danis.”

She finally understood what he meant. She felt chill-bumps across all over her body.

After a long time, she whispered haltingly.

“Don't worry, Mr. Harvey. I won’t mess up into your social network.”
