Chapter 124 What He Is Up To?

Angela had long been used to such stares, she could never match Jessica in her scheming mind, she

suddenly spat out a chicken bone and said, “That’s not true.”

Raya sounded a bit confused, "Huh?"

"He's not fighting for me, he's just sticking up for himself." said Angela.

James glanced at Angela and only saw the swirl of her hair, he frowned slightly and withdrew his gaze. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Cathleen, yous should apologize to Brother James. He's not an unreasonable person."

Jessica gently advised Cathleen. Then, she turned her head and said to James.

"Brother James, Cathleen was furious with my brother before she spoke.

Just do me a favor. If she apologizes to you, just let her go. Do you think that's okay?"

"It's not impossible." said James.

Jessica sighed in slight relief and gave Cathleen a wink.

Cathleen was just about to apologize to James, but he said first.

"No need to apologize to me. Apologize to her. If she forgives you, it is over."

He pointed to Angela.

Seeing this, Cathleen’s face suddenly changed, like she had eaten a fly by mistake.

Angela's body stiffened, she looked up at James.

Sometimes she really didn't know what he was thinking, like now.

He had broken her leg for Jessica in the first place, and she thought he must love Jessica deeply, but

what she had seen and heard since she was released from the prison was contradictory to that

conclusion.

James ...... she could not really guess what he was up to.

The smile on Jessica’s face stiffened for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, "Brother James.

That is just too much for me, not to say Cathleen."

"Angela knew that the Harvey and Smith families were about to get engaged, and she also knew that

my brother and Cathleen were already engaged, yet she tried to seduce you while flirting with my

brother frequently."

"She did something wrong to Cathleen, and now Cathleen as the victim is just telling the truth, why

should she apologize to Angela?"

The waiters stood eye-to-eye, not daring to blatantly gossip, but listened attentively, and suddenly their

disgust for Angela increased to a higher level.

“Well.”

James sneered and looked askance at Jessica, "I remember saying that the Harvey family doesn't

necessarily have to choose the Smith family for a marriage."

Jessica rested both hands on her legs and clutched her clothes, her clear face turning pale in a flash.

"As for Mr. Danis Smith," James walked up to Danish and put his hand on his shoulder, his eyes slightly

cool, "He's the one who pestered Angela, right?"

Hearing this, the waiters were a bit confused; the two claims were worlds apart, who was telling the

truth then?

"What are you guys doing standing there? Come and help, don't you see it's busy?"

Seeing the argument between the two tables, the lobby manager was worried that a couple of waiters

would hear something they shouldn't and piss them off.

Jessica smiled and wanted to say something else, but she was interrupted by Danis.

He jerked to his feet and said with a grimly handsome face.

“Enough!” When he finished, he didn't look at anyone and strutted towards the door.

"Danis!"

Cathleen shouted behind his back, and without any response, he didn't even stop for a second before

he exited the resturant.

Her eyes were slightly red with anger, she tried to go after him, but she took a few steps and then

backed off, reluctantly apologizing to Angela, each word squeezed out from her teeth, "I'm sorry, it's my

fault today, is that okay?"

“Woman who can't control her man should find reasons from herself and shoud not put shit on me

every time something goes wrong. It is disgusting."

Angela looked at her and said word by word.

Cathleen was angry, but when her split vision swept James, she took a deep breath and held her face

red,

“Sure! Now can I go?"

"Did I say I wouldn't let you go?" Angela’s voice was faint.

Cathleen glared at her and said to James, "I still have something to do, so I'll leave now," and she

trotted off toward Danis.

Jessica gave James a wounded look, "Brother James, I'll leave first. Remember not to eat spicy food

and seafood, it's not good for your injury."

Without waiting for James to answer, Angela said first.

"Please wait for a moment, Miss Jessica."

Jessica bit her lip, "Are you trying to get me to apologize to Cathleen for you?"

On the side, Raya squeezed her eyes at Sean and whispered something, glancing at Jessica every

now and then.

"If Miss Jessica can't guess what I'm thinking, don't guess, such smart-ass remarks will make me feel

sick."

She tugged at her lips, "I called you to tell you that you should not say 'though Angela is my friend'

whenever you open your mouth in the future. Every time I hear that, I am too sick to eat all day."

"A gentleman is always a gentleman when he sees a man, and a villain is not."

Jessica smiled helplessly, ''Since you don't want to be my friend, then it's not good for me to impose. I

have things to do, so I'll leave you for now."

She gave James a deep look, the bottom of her eyes filled with hurt.

But James sat down a few minutes ago, with a honey baked wings in his hand without giving Jessica

another glance.

Raya tugged on the sleeve of Angela, still eating, and her speech was slurred, "She said you are like a

villain ......"

"Hmm."

Angela just casually responded.

Seeing that James wasn't looking at her, Jessica sighed in disillusionment, turned the wheelchair, and

prepared to walk out.

Sean raised his eyebrows and said perfunctorily.

"Miss Jessica is not comfortable in her wheelchair, do you need me to walk you out?"

“No, thanks.”

Jessica politely said.

"There are still a lot of kind people in this world."

Sean, who was meant to be polite, sniffed and flattered.

"Miss Jessica is as beautiful as a flower, so naturally she is in demand in this world where good-looking

face prevails."

Jessica smiled warmly, gave James another look, and turned her wheelchair towards the door.

"Are you on your own?"

Not far away, a young male waiter greeted her, saying warmly and compassionately.

"It's not convenient for you, so I'll walk you out."

Angela looked up and saw Jessica say thank you to the male waiter, and his fair and clean face was

then covered with a blush, and his eyes glittered underneath.

She smiled and went on to eat.

If it wasn't for that car accident, perhaps she would never have recognized Jessica’s true face in her

life.

And now, how many people were just like her, wallowing in the illusion of Jessica's innocence,

goodness and beauty?

After eating, they paid their bills and headed out together.

Sean and James were walking side by side behind them when they suddenly stopped and said.

"James, is this blood on your pant? You wound is bleeding?"
