Desperate Lovers
Chapter 290: Depression

As expected by James, Mr. Lawson was very dissatisfied with the Smith family's actions, and arranged to reveal some scandals about the Smith Group. It wasn't until Grandpa Smith compromised and promised him a certain benefit that he patched up broken relations with

the Smith family.

-In the face of interests, there were no eternal enemies or absolute friends.

Angela pretended to be sick in the hospital for a few days, and then returned to the Chante family with James. During this period, Jessica remained quiet, as if she had given up struggling. It seemed that everything was going in a good direction.

Greyson was very dissatisfied with James's arrival. The plaster on his body had been removed, and he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight with James. Finally Luna pulled him away.

"Greyson, don't cause trouble. James was forced to do those things. Don't blame him!" Lorenzo scolded him.

Greyson snorted and said to James, "You can't even protect your woman. You're really useless!"

"Brother, thank you for entrusting Angela to me. I will take good care of her." James took Angela's hand and said solemnly.

"Fuck, why do you call me brother? Who is your brother? Why are you so ashamed!" Greyson's eyes widened, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "Also, who agrees to entrust Angela to you? Fucking nonsense!"

He was so angry that he was swearing so much and he didn't even notice Luna glaring at him.

"Doesn't the 'own woman' mean that Angela is my woman, brother?" James smiled and emphasized the final title.

Greyson was very exasperated and shocked. He flushed and couldn't speak for a long time.

"...", Angela pursed her lips and whispered, "Don't tease my brother."

James squeezed the palm of her hand and said casually, "I'm trying to ease the relationship with him."

Greyson stared at his small movements, and widened his eyes. He squeezed between them with a sullen face and pulled James behind.

"... Mr. Harvey, Greyson was still a little grudged by your previous behavior. He is stubborn, so you don't need to take it too seriously. "Luna walked beside him, helping her husband mediate the dispute. James always looked at Angela, and calmly said, "Sister-in-law, just call me James. You don't need to be so polite. As for brother, he is doing this because he loves Angela, and I'm very happy to see that." Luna smiled with mixed feelings when she heard the 'sister-in-law', and she understood Greyson's mood a bit.

In order to get rid of James, Greyson deliberately speeded up and led Angela into her previous room.

The room was exactly the same as when she left two years ago. Even the dress she didn't wear at the birthday dinner was still on the bed, as if she had never left.

"Mom used to blame you for harming Jessica and has beat you because of dad, but she always wanted you to come back. After you leave, mom cleans up your room by herself every day. Sometimes she misses you very much, so she cleans it several times a day, and then sits on the bed in a daze for hours. "Greyson's voice was much lower than usual.

Angela lowered her eyes and slowly stroked the things in the room, feeling sad.

They were better preserved than when she was there, and it was obvious that mom had taken good care of them.

"During that time, mom... She also suffered from depression, and later received treatment and became better. Recently, it relapsed again, and I saw that she was taking medicine secretly."

"Angela, I am not smart, but I also know what you are worried about. You dare not get close to mom anymore, for fear that dad will use her to force you to do things you hate. But...Anyway... I don't know what to say! "Greyson scratched his hair irritably. Depression?!

Angela looked at him in shock. Her lips and fingers were trembling slightly, and her face turned pale suddenly, "Depression... Relapse? Why don't you tell me?"

She said the words very hard, almost struggling.

Greyson gave a hum and didn't say any more. He just inserted his hands into his hair and pulled at it with an annoyed expression, which had just been dyed black to show his stability.

This was the default.

Angela looked pale and held on to the wall, feeling dull and depressed to the extreme.

Greyson didn't speak again, and the whole room was very quiet. This silence weighed heavily on Angela's nerves like a jack.

Pattering.

At that moment, the door of the room rang suddenly, breaking the silence.

"Dad- you will become bald if you pull your hair-"

"Yeah-"

The twins walked to the door. The sister stood akimbo and criticized him, and the younger brother nodded while laughing.

Greyson turned his head to give them a lecture. But the sister made a grimace at him, turned her back to twist her butt at him and ran away. The younger brother followed, but was not that agile. He ran a few steps and fell down, then got up and staggered to chase his elder sister.

"They are my children. If others treat me like this, I will beat them! "Greyson's face was full of helplessness and love, not angry at all.

Angela looked at him, feeling uncomfortable in her throat.

Were parents all like this?

She didn't forgive mom some time ago. Wasn't she too unfeeling?

"James, this is it." At that time, Lorenzo and James were in her sight, "The decoration of the room was arranged according to Angela's preferences. If you don't like it, you can change..."

Greyson glared at them and interrupted him directly, "This is Angela's room, and of course it has to suit her preferences. If James doesn't like it, just get out. Why change it?!"

"Greyson!" Greyson offended James several times, so Lorenzo's face turned livid with rage.

Greyson put his hands around his chest, leaned against the wall and looked askance at him, "What's the matter? Do you think my words are hateful? I am different from you. You can sell your daughter for glory, but I can't!

"What nonsense!" Talked back by his son in front of James, Lorenzo flushed, "I taught you etiquette for more than half a month, but it was all in vain!"

Greyson snorted.

Lorenzo was a little embarrassed, "If you continue to be like this, you can't even be as good as Danis, let alone surpass Jessica!"

They were tit-for-tat, not giving way to each other. Elva was used to it. She just looked at Angela carefully, fearing that she would be dissatisfied with this room.

Angela was also looking at her. Seeing her red and swollen eyes and cautious expression, she opened her mouth, but said nothing, and just wanted to cry.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
