Desperate Lovers

Angela stood up tensely in his oppressive gaze, “I'm sorry.”

The slit of her cheongsam swang back and forth as she moved.

There was an obvious scar on her leg, but it blended perfectly with the pattern on her clothes, which made Angela more attractive.

Others kept their eyes fixed on her.

James put the glass down gloomily.

He leaned back with overlapped legs, and commanded in a frosty tone,

“Get the fuck out of here!”

“The new girl was thoughtless to push her way in.

Come here, I got plenty of room for you.”

Someone laughed and patted the couch.

James gave Angela a straight look with his clenched lips.

“Thanks Mr. Leon. I’m all good.”

Angela swallowed down the humiliation. She tried to raised her mouth, “Now that Mr. Harvey doesn’t want me to sit aside. I'll just stand here.”

“Mr. Leon seems to be abandoned.”

Someone laughed out.

Mr. Leon smiled awkwardly,

“Never mind. Mr. Harvey is young and charming. I am sincerely convinced!

At least I won’t get questioned when I go home.”
