Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 108

The servant's words were inconsistent and clearly lying.

But James frowned, fearing that Angela was really drunk in the opposite room, and still went to the window and pulled the curtains open.

As far as his eyes could see, there was a bright French window. But in front of the window, Angela was dressed in a revealing outfit, with ample bosom, and the hem of her skirt barely covered her upturned buttocks. She was standing on tiptoe, holding Danis's neck and saying something.

Her back was turned to James, while Danis looked down at her. His attention was all on her, and neither of them noticed James standing in front of the window of the opposite room.

James's expression remained unchanged, clutching the gift box hard until his knuckles turned white, and his look was gloomy.

He didn't know why he was still standing here, maybe there was a fluke in his heart.

However, when he saw Angela behaving boldly and obviously flirting with Danis, he breathed heavily and abruptly pulled the curtain shut, turning around and striding out.

"I'm sorry Mr. James. You can't leave yet. Our Miss said you can't leave until she arrives."

The maid bravely stopped in front of James.

James looked down on the servant, and it seemed that a blistering storm was in his dark eyes, "Get out of the way!"

"Mr. James, this is our Miss's command. She told me to make sure to stop you. Please forgive me..."

The servant tried to stop him again, but before she could finish her words, he waved his hand and pushed her away.

James walked to the door with his slender legs, opened the door and walked out.

The maid was so anxious that she stomped her foot and hurriedly followed him, "Mr. James, Mr. James, wait a moment. Miss Jessica will be right over!"

"Mr. James, take your time!"

No matter how much she shouted behind him, James didn't stop for a moment.

To her good fortune, when they reached the second floor, Jessica showed up.

With a great sigh of relief, the servant said warily,

“Miss Jessica, Mr. James has to go, and I really can't stop him."

"All right, there's nothing for you to do here. You can go down first."

Jessica spoke to the maid, then tugged on James's sleeve and gently asked,

"James, you saw it all, right?"

James was very irritated. He loosened his tie, and gave an irrelevant answer, "You tricked me to come here by telling me that Angela was drunk, then found someone similar to her and deliberately arranged this play for me?"

"I admit that I lied to you about Angela’s getting drunk.

But if I were to tell you directly that Angela was having an affair with my brother, and ask you to catch her adultery, I'm afraid you wouldn't even come over."

Jessica bit her lip, somewhat aggrieved and helpless.

James grunted coldly and didn't make a sound, sort of acquiescing.

He had never had much trust for the Smiths.

"But you'd be wrong to say that I found someone similar to Angela to deliberately arrange this show for you."

Jessica's eyes were a little red, "I'm Angela's good friend, and the person she cheated on was my brother. How could I put dirt on both of them for no reason?"

She looked up at him with her watery eyes, "Besides, you've known Angela for so many years, and should know very well whether that person is her or not."

As if there were millions of ants gnawing at his heart, James felt numb, itchy and painful. He ripped off his tie and said with a slight frown,

"There are so many people in the world, and it’s possible that there is someone who looks exactly like Angela."

"It really breaks my heart that you would rather believe the probability of one in ten million than what I said."

Jessica smiled bitterly and wiped the corners of her eyes, "All right. My brother is still in that room with Angela. Why don't you come over with me and see it with your eyes?"

James put his tie on his arm, clutching the gift box in his hand with leaden eyes, lifted his feet and walked downstairs.

Jessica trotted a few steps to follow him, and said in a soft voice,

"The small staircase southwest of the living room leads to that room across the hall. When you get there, I'll tell Angela that you just came over to see her."

His pace was so fast that she had to jog to keep up.

"This is the room. Wait a minute, James. I'll knock on the door."

Jessica reached the door first and knocked gently on the door.

CRUNCH.

The door opened from the inside, Danis stood at the door wearing a white shirt and black suit pants. His gentle handsome face was cloudy at this time, looking at James with undisguised hostility.

James's gaze crossed over him and landed straight on Angela, who was wearing a super short skirt and a bare midriff, his look gradually turning cold.

There was only Angela and Danis in this room, and no anyone else!

"James, what brings you here?"

Angela smiled and came up to him, wrapped her arms around his neck and gave a kiss on his lips, "Did you miss me because you haven't seen me for half a day?"

Looking at the amorous Angela, Danis’s handsome face was wearing an awfully bad expression, and he really wanted to yank them away.

But just as he took a step, he was tugged by Jessica and she shook her head at him.

"I've got work to do at the office, I'll be off!"

Danis didn't even take his jacket and went out with a dark face.

Angela's entire body was almost hanging on James, "Why don't you say anything?

Having a bad day?"

She chuckled, "How about I give you another kiss? Don't get mad, okay?"

She pouted to kiss him, but his head tilted and avoided her kiss.

James thought about the scene he had seen earlier, and his handsome face turned gloomy. He prised her hands, pushed her away, and asked in a cold voice,

"Why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to play with Jessica!"

Angela replied without hesitation, not showing any sign of a guilty conscience.

Lie!

James was annoyed, and tugged hard at his collar. The two buttons on his shirt clicked to the ground.

He tossed the tie that was over his arm, turned his head and walked away without speaking.

Angela was puzzled and frowned as she was about to go after him, "James, wait for me!"

"Angela."

Jessica tugged her from behind and said with a sincere face,

"Maybe seeing you here with my brother, an admirer, James got jealous.

You'll only add fuel to the fire by going over to him now, so it's better if I explain it for you."

James had just left the villa and hadn't gotten into the car before Jessica caught up with him.

She covered her chest and gasped sharply, "James, do you believe it now?

Angela is getting engaged to you tomorrow, but she's still having an affair with my brother. I didn't want to see you being kept in the dark by them, which is why I came to you during their private meeting."

"If Angela is having a private meeting with your brother, will she call you, Janet and Nova together?

Jessica, do you think Angela is a fool?"

James’s mind was in a mess, and he didn't even know what he was thinking.

The sunlight peeked through the collar of his shirt, casting a shadow on his collarbone.

His suit wasn't as meticulously dressed as usual, even looking a little disheveled because of the two missing buttons, but it added a little sexiness to him.
