Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

“Sorry.”

Feeling fiery pain in the small of his stomach, James wiped the cold sweat from his head and said obscurely with difficulty.

Hearing this, Greyson nearly jumped up from the bed. Jam … James was apologizing to Angela?

He knew he wronged Angela for that car accident?

“I can’t afford an apology from Mr. James, and I don’t need it.”

Angela mocked with trembling fingers.

“You know it was a misunderstanding, now can you get me out of the Dream Club?”

James said with an “em.”, her angry and fear-filled face reflected in his pupils. And his heart seemed to be stabbed with needles, one by one, which was not fata but painful to bear. Like … Was this the feeling of like someone?

It didn’t seem to be the same as what Sean had said, and instead of making him pleasant, it made him bitter.

After getting a definite answer, Angela’s tense body finally eased a little. Angela didn’t look at James again, and jumped off the hospital bed and walked quickly in the direction of the elevator.

She didn’t want to see James for one more second!

“Angela!”

What happened between Angela and James made Greyson confused. And looking at Angela’s increasingly distant back, he propped his hands on the transfer bed and tried to get out.

Luna held him down and gave him a stern glare, “You stay here in peace!”

James pursed his lips and clutched the hospital gown with more force. He lifted his feet and took a step forward. But he frowned and retreated again, as his heart was pressed by a thousand pounds load.

“Miss Angela is in a very unstable mood now. If Mr. James is really thinking about her, you’d better avoid meeting her during this period.” Roland said.

James glanced at him faintly, and his eyes showed hostility that he hadn’t noticed. And then he gave a slightly muffled sound, “Please keep me informed about Angela’s leg, Dr. Roland. If there is anything you need, feel free to mention it to me.”

“Mr. James, you are neither my employer nor my superior, so there is no need for me to reveal Miss Angela’s privacy to you. Excuse me for now.”

Roland nodded slightly at James before pushing Greyson away with Luna.

James looked down at the hospital gown in his hand, his eyes flashing.

Then, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and glanced in the direction that Angela had left. And then, with a pale face, he took small steps towards the elevator, covering his lower belly, and went into the ward.

Angela returned to the hospital room, and locked the door with a slam. Then she leaned against the door and slid down onto the floor.

The suit jacket on her body had an aggressive aura, the same as its owner James.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She licked her dry lips, unbuttoned the suit, and tossed his suit jacket onto the floor.

Angela stared at the customized handmade suit on the ground, stood up abruptly, and stomped on the suit jacket.

Bare feet did not cause any substantial damage to the suit jacket, so she put on her shoes and added a few more stomps.

It wasn’t until the suit jacket had shoe prints all over that she bent down to pick it up, walked over to the window and dropped it out without hesitation.

Knock, knock, knock!

When the knock on the door sounded up, Luna’s voice came through the door, “Angela, it’s me, open the door.”

Angela wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes, “I’m so tired today, I want to have a rest now. Luna, go and take care of my brother.”

“Are you crying?” Luna said eagerly, with worries in her voice.

“Angela, if you have anything uncomfortable, please tell me. Don’t hold it in your heart.”

Angela took a deep breath and forced the tears back from the corners of her eyes, “I’m fine. I’m just too tired. Luna, I’ve ruined my hospital gown, can you ask the nurse for another one and send it to me tomorrow?”

Luna said, “No problem, but you have to open the door first so I can see you.”

“That is really not necessary, Luna.”

Angela said with a bitter smile.

“I don’t want to wear James’s clothes, so I just throw it away. Now I can’t meet you naked, can I?”

This time, Luna answered her after a while, “Okay, I’ll send you the hospital gown tomorrow.”

She stopped for a moment and said,

“One more thing, your brother let me ask you, how did James know the truth about the car accident?

If he has any evidence, let’s try to get it so we can clear up the case for you.”

Both Luna and Greyson felt that they should try to clarify it if they could, so that some people wouldn’t talk about Angela all day.

“Sorry to bother you.”

Angela lowered her eyes, and her hands hanging on either side of her body clenched tightly, “But that’s not what I told James about.”

She didn’t want to say more, “Greyson is tossing and turning today, and I don’t know if he’s okay. Luna, ask the doctor to take a look at him.”

Luna said a few more words and left in a hurry.

It was only after her footsteps disappeared in the doorway that Angela moved her legs, which were already numb, and walked towards the hospital bed.

She sat on her bed and warmed up her cold feet with her hands. Her eyes were empty as she looked at the table in front of her, and her thoughts had drifted back two years long ago.

It was Thursday, September 27, the day before Angela’s birthday.

On Thursday afternoon, all the teachers would have a meeting, so they did not need to attend class. Angela had an appointment with Jessica, Janet, and Nova to hang around at the Smith’s house.

It was not clear who took the lead on playing Truth or Dare, and Angela was quite excited and agreed.

In the beginning, the other three lost, and she eagerly asked a few curious questions. But in the following six or seven rounds, and she was not so fortunate and kept losing.

The questions ranged from “When did you fall in love with James?” “What is the most embarrassing thing you’ve done to chase after James?” and “Have you ever kissed James?”

The questions tended to be bolder and bolder, “Have you ever dreamed on having sex with James?”

After another defeat, Angela finally didn’t dare to choose the Truth again and chose the Dare instead.

Jessica curled her lips and said softly, “Have you thought about it? You can’t regret it.”

“Will I regret it?”

She lay down, with her back leaning on the sofa, her arms dangling back and forth on the armrest beside her, “Say, catch caterpillars, earthworms, mice?

Or pick two boys from sports school for a fight, or put a snake in the teacher’s desk?”

Janet’s eyes glowed with hatred as she said,

“None of these are fun! In the last exam, the big baldy took my test paper and I had to sit for a re-test. You can put some dog shit in his briefcase to anger him!”

“If you want to put it, you go ahead and put it, I’m not going!”

Angela looked at her disdainfully, “The points you get in the test show your true ability! Who can you blame for cheating on the exam and having your test paper taken away?

It’s good that the big baldy didn’t give you a punishment and make you fail to graduate!”

Janet’s face turned ugly at her words, and she looked indignant, “You think everyone wants to score sixty-one or twenty on the test like you and pass with a low score?”
