Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

Greyson ran to Angela and tried to examine the wound on her leg, but he didn’t even know where to start.

His eyes turned red, and he glared at Lorenzo, saying word by word,

“You’re fucking crazy!”

“You…… ahem!”

Lorenzo’s breath was heavy, as if it was going to stop in any minute.

“Are you okay, Lorenzo?”

Elva stood up with the pills in her hand, her red eyes were filled with sadness. She patted Lorenzo’s back and pleaded, “Angela, just leave.”

Before Angela could answer, Greyson yelled first,

“This is a police station, not our family! She can come and go as will!

You’re all…”

“Brother, don’t talk to… Madame like that.”

Angela opened her eyes wide, trying not to let the tear rolling out of her eyes. She said with a hoarse voice, “I’m going to the hospital first.”

Greyson looked at her leg and said with a frown.

“I’ll give you a ride.”

“Thanks, but I’ll just take a taxi.”

Angela said and shook her head. Then she stumbled out of the door under Elva’s gaze.

Greyson stood up and was about to chase after her, but Luna tugged him back and said, “Dad and Mom would abuse Angela if you go with her.”

“I listened to them and stopped hanging out with her, but they’ve never stopped abusing her.”

Greyson cast a mocking glance at Lorenzo and Elva. Then he broke away from her and stormed out.

Luna wanted to keep up with him. But Lorenzo’s furious face and Elva’s red eyes made her hesitate and took a step back.

“Angela!”

Greyson strode over to catch up with Angela and tugged her. Then he said, “I’ll take you back to the hospital.”

Angela wiped the tears off her eyes and tried to cover her swollen cheeks in embarrassment. Her lips curled. “No, it would be easier if I get a taxi, you should just go back.”

“I’ve been in the jail for over two hours, I’ll go crazy if I stay any longer!”

Greyson looked at her tears and swollen cheeks. His heart ached so much that he directly picked her up by the waist and put her in the car.

Angela sat silently in the car, hands on her swollen face and eyes staring out of the window.

Obviously, her heart should’ve been numb since a long time ago, but she still felt unbearably heartbroken every time her parents did this to her.

“Angela, I’ll take you to a place where James can’t find you.”

Greyson suddenly said.

Angela shook her head and inclined her head to look at him, “What about Mom and Dad if you’re away with me?”

“What about them? Why do you still care for them after all that they’ve done to you?”

Greyson’s words were full of anger. “I don’t care. Anyway, it’s not like James would kill them! We’re still living in a law-based society!”

Then the two fell in silent.

“I’ll book the tickets and we’ll go straight to the airport!”

With those words, Greyson pulled over and took out his phone. Then he started looking at the nearest flights.

“Mom and Dad did nothing wrong to you,”

Angela snatched his phone and interrupted. She lowered her eyes to hide her true feelings. Then she mumbled, “What about your wife and the two kids?”

Greyson was about to grab the phone, but he gave up upon hearing what she said. Now he seemed so struggling.

Angela then said, “You said it’s a society under the rule of law and James wouldn’t dare to get anyone killed anyway.

It’s not like I’m going to die… so stop being so hasty and aggressive.”

Angela said and tried to move her hair to cover her swollen cheeks.

Greyson looked at her leg and growled,Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“He can’t get you killed, but he can snap your legs and get you in jail… he will make each and every of your days miserable!”

His voice got a little choked up as he said it.

The corners of Angela’s eyes were sour as she inclined her head to look out the window. She replied, “You have such a bad memory… I told you some time ago that I’ve already come up with a plan to escape from James.”

“Are you saying it for real or you were just trying to fool me?!”

Greyson’s furious fist smashed on the steering wheel. His face was getting more and more twisted in the rearview mirror.

Angela licked her dry lips. She could still taste blood as she opened her mouth to speak, “It’s real.”

“So tell me, what exactly is you plan?”

Greyson grabbed her head and made her look at him. “Don’t tell me it’s a secret because I won’t believe you!”

Angela was silent for a long time before she answered,

“Seduction.”

“What?

Greyson literally yelled out.

The taste of blood in Angela’s mouth made her nauseous. She swallowed it and continued,” James loves Jessica but he didn’t reject me, either. I guess he does have some feelings for me.”

She wasn’t quite sure, but there was no other way. She said, “He’s like any other man in the world, and should be eating from the bowl and watching the pot just like any other man, manipulative and insatiably avaricious.

If I succeed in seducing him, he would no longer get back on me.”

Greyson’s expression changed for a moment, and he said,

“I won’t let you do that.”

“Do I look like having a choice?”

Asked Angela.

Greyson was dumbfounded.

“I don’t want to live the rest of my life in revenge for James.”

Angela’s voice was lowering down. At last, she was almost murmuring, “It would be so painful……”

He always had a way to humiliate and torment her, and Jessica would always have a way to plot against her. It would be beyond miserable and suffering for Angela if she lived under the shadow of the two.

“Angela, why don’t you wait until I grew more influential than James? I promise I won’t let him threaten you by then!”

Greyson had been in the entertainment business for many years and had seen many women who sacrificed their bodies for various reasons, but he never thought that one day Angela would have to do that.

Angela laughed out bitterly, “Greyson, doyou realize how ridiculous that idea is?”

“Isn’t that what you advised me to do before?”

Greyson looked anxious and said, “Angela, I will try my best! You should believe in me!”

Angela shook her head, “I’m sure you will, but it’s just… the chance is so slim.

Greyson, I… I’m not sure how much longer I can wait…”

Greyson stared straight ahead, clenching his fists so tightly that the steering wheel quickly became sweaty.

“I’m twenty years old. It’s okay to sleep with a man, right?”

Angela curled her lips. The slap marks on her cheeks crinkled. “Janet and Nova… they have slept with several men, but I haven’t slept with one yet.”

Greyson looked so tensed, his handsome face was pale while his eyes were red, which looked so frightening and vicious.

“I’ve always wanted to sleep with James, so consider this a favor for me.”

Angela wrapped her arms around him and smiled like a little girl.

There was a moment when Greyson felt that he had seen his fragile little sister. He was in a daze, and felt his heart clenched by a pair of big invisible hands. The air was suffocating him.

He sent Angela to the hospital and wanted to stay a little longer, but the police station was pressing hard. They ordered him to go back within forty minutes, or else he would be treated as a prisoner escaping.

“I’ll go back first, call me if you need anything.”

Greyson’s handsome face was grim. “I’ll visit you in the hospital as soon as everything is settled.”

He said and left, without giving Angela a chance to refuse. He grabbed the car keys and ran out of the ward. Then he gently closed the door.

Leaning against the wall, he glanced at the ward door and took a deep breath. As he strode away out of the hospital, he wiped the tears fom his face.
