Desperate Lovers

Jessica's eyes flashed as she put away her phone and said,

"I don't know what Brother James meant when you said that I started preparing long ago, this recording was just something I happened to record when Angela hit me with her car." She looked up at him and said softly.

"The police are already looking into the accident, and so far they said it is an accident.

But if I give them this recording, the nature of the crash will be attempted murder.

Brother James knows what that means, right?"

It hurt so badly that she finished the paragraph, covering her mouth and coughing heavily a few times, her pretty face becoming paler.

But James didn't feel any heartbroken, there was only undisguised anger, his eyes were half narrowed, his hawk-like gaze seemed to tear her apart, "You threatened me?" "Just a matter of fact, how could it be a threat to you?"

Jessica had an innocent face, only with bitterness mixed in the bottom of her eyes, "Shouldn't you be happy that because Angela did something wrong to you so let her spend the rest of her life in prison?"

James clenched his fists tightly and plucked at her with cold eyes, anger burning at the bottom of his eyes.

"Brother James, Angela has been following you for so many years, yet she was dating with my brother.

I feel both sorry for you and pathetic for my brother.

And now that Angela has done such a thing, sending her to prison is the punishment she deserves."

Jessica said.

The smell of disinfect water and medicine mixed together, choked James with irritation, he frowned tightly and said in a cold voice.

"I don't need you to interfere with what's between me and Angela, so delete that recording."

Jessica had been doing a double take. If James agreed to send Angela to prison, it would prove that he didn't care about Angela, or if he had some feelings for Angela, but that feeling would had been taken away by Angela's cheating, so it couldn't be better for her.

But now it seemed that he had deeper feelings for Angela than she thought, so she could just have to follow another plan.

She suppressed the loss in her heart and shook her head at James, "I'm sorry. brother James. I can't delete this recording; if I do, there won't be any evidence for me to prove that Angela is determined to kill me."

James loosened his clenched fist, sat down in his chair, and stood up again, gritting his teeth as he said.

"You think the police won't find out about the tampering you did?"

"First, I've never done any tampering.

Secondly, if you still don't believe me, you can always get a few more cops to check it out."

Jessica bit her lip with a bitter smile.

James looked straight at her for a moment, twisted around, and walked away.

But just as he took a step out, he was stopped by Jessica shouting, "Can you listen to me for a few more words?"

Just say."

James didn't turn around, but was just silent for a moment before clenching his fist and squeezing a word out of his teeth.

Jessica had grown up with a deep mind and a rigorous approach, and now that she had let him get a few more cops to investigate, she should just be confident that they wouldn't be able to find anything out. In fact, he could have just left the matter alone, and since Angela had done something wrong to him, these could be taken as a punishment for her.

But as soon as he thought that she would spend the ...... rest of her life in prison, he could not say exactly what he thought. But he could not let Jessica prosecute Angela on the charge of attempted murder. "Even if Angela did something wrong to you by seducing my brother, even if she tried to run me over just because of a misunderstanding...... I've been good friends with her for so many years, I don't want to see her spend the rest of her life in prison."

"But if I just pretend this crash have never happened, I wouldn't be willing to do that."

"If you can make Angela cripple a leg like me, and never dance again, and send her to the eastern suburbs prison for two years, I agree not to charge her with attempted murder. This matter will be considered cleared between the two of us."

Jessica was lying on the hospital bed, her pale and beautiful face was calm, as natural as if she was discussing what to eat for lunch today.

James turned to look at her, his face cold, veins protruding from his neck, "I'll break one of her legs, and you two are clear."

The eastern suburbs were full of outlaws, if they sent Angela to that kind of place, how could she, an arrogant princess, stand it?

Jessica shook her head and said with a sincere face.

"And send her to the eastern suburbs prison for two years.

Auntie Elva and Uncle Lorenzo and Greyson are spoiling Angela too much and even let her dare to do something like killing."

"It's for her own good to send her to prison for two years; she'll be more composed in the future if she goes in there and gets frustrated, lest she get into some big trouble later."

"Oh, by the way, before you send Angela to prison, just ask the Chante family to cut ties with Angela first.

If those inmates give in to Angela at every turn because of the Chante Family's name, then all my hard work will be in vain."

The people in the prison were all desperate outlaws, who would not let her go just because Angela was a Chante Family member. Jessica said so, just becasue she wanted to use James' hand to let the Chante Family cut off relations with Angela.

James' gaze seemed to be interspersed with millions of sharp blades, shooting straight at Jessica, biting and sharp, "Do you really think that all police officers are out of uses?"

"I just think the facts speak for themselves."

Jessica smiled, "What I said didn't make you agree now either, you can just let the police officers reconsider whether to agree or not.

Even if you don't say yes, it is fine. I'll sue Angela for attempted murder, and it has nothing to do with you."

James clenched his fist, withdrew his gaze, and strode out of the ward.

"Even if I almost died, you don't care about me a little ......"

Jessica looked at his distant back and murmured, then covered her lips and coughed heavily, tears running down her cheeks.

She was truly sad that she could never dance again from now on, but a hobby for a chance to be with Brother James would be worth it.

The nights were cool, especially when there was a breeze.

The tip of James' nose was slightly cold, but his limbs were burning with rage.

Having been set up twice in two days and betrayed by his fiancée, he had never felt so frustrated.

The sound of a vibrating cell phone was extra clear in the quiet night.

James glanced at the caller ID and picked up the phone, "Mom, what's up?"

"Word has reached to your grandfather about Angela's attempted murder because of jealousy."

Denise's voice carried an unconcealed tiredness and helplessness, "What the old man meant was that people of corrupt character could not enter the Harvey family's door."

James' hand clutching the phone tightened as he thought of the scene he saw at the Smith yesterday and frowned.

"Even if Grandpa doesn't say anything, I'll break off my engagement with Angela tonight."

"Aren't you and Angela fine?

What's with the sudden ......?"

Denise said in surprise.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
