Desperate Lovers
Chapter 319 You'll Regret It Soon

Jessica's heart missed a beat with that sound.

'I have only seen Lawson Harvey for a few times before and I could feel his dislikes on me, but this time I can obviously feel them.'

'What is wrong?"

'Do I offend him? Or does he vent his anger on me as the Smith family or the Smith Group have offended him?'

"I'm much more experienced than you. You think you can fool me?" said Lawson, almost growling, "How dare you?!" Jessica hadn't expected that Lawson was so mad at her and she had no idea what was going wrong.

'The more I say, the more mistakes I make. I'd better not say anything now.'

Wiping the blood in the corner of her mouth, Jessica kept silent.

"Are you ashamed of being watched?" asked Lawson again.

He ordered Nathen before Jessica could reply, "Make this man a cup of tea and let him sit on the sofa to watch us!"

Lawson stressed the last few words.

With a frown, Jessica looked to the employee.

Stared at by both Lawson and Jessica, the employee was too nervous to move a little. Nathen directly carried the employee to the sofa by his collar and asked one of his men to make tea.

"Can I ask why, Grandpa Harvey?" said Jessica as the corners of her mouth were pulled to be painful, "Is there any misunderstanding between us?"

"Misunderstanding?" said Lawson with a raised voice as he knocked at the ground with his stick.

As a big shot for many years, Lawson was so overwhelming that the employee was frightened to almost fall down from the sofa.

"The first question, was it your idea to let the Smith Group enter into the electrical appliance market by using the news that the Harvey family and the Smith family were going to unite by marriage two years ago?" asked Lawson. Biting her lips, Jessica said obediently, "It was my idea. But you have made it clear with the Smith family, haven't you? What's more, the Smith Group has made up for it."

"You only need to answer yes or no. No other words!" said Lawson harshly.

With a frown, Jessica still said softly, "Okay."

"The second question, is it you who tell me that Angela fakes a pregnancy?" asked Lawson.

Jessica nodded and wanted to explain it. However, thinking of what Lawson said, she checked herself.

Having said too much, Lawson felt thirsty and took a sip of tea. As soon as the tea went into his mouth, he spit it out and snarled, "What the hell is it?!"

"It is..." said Jessica and was immediately interrupted by Lawson as he said, "You doesn't need to answer it!"

With a move of her throat, Jessica unconsciously curled the paper edges of the document she was holding and looked pale.

Seeing that, the employee took pity on her, but he didn't dare to say anything.

"Even the plain water is better than it. Nathen, get me a glass of water!" ordered Lawson and then looked to Jessica again and asked, "Another question, have you known the fake pregnancy of Angela from the very beginning?" Jessica did suspect that Angela faked a pregnancy when Angela told her that the baby was two months old as Angela had been brought to the hospital ER several times last month.

'Even if Angela was pregnant, how could a baby survive in such condition?'

Thinking of that, Jessica nodded.

"Angela didn't lie to me!" said Lawson as he stood up with an angry look, "It was your idea to let her fake a pregnancy, wasn't it?"

'It explains why Jessica has known it from the very beginning!'

Lawson thought.

Jessica was stunned by the conclusion and paled after realizing what Lawson meant. She explained hurriedly, "There must be some misunderstanding, Grandpa Lawson. I've never let Angela fake a pregnancy!" 'What's going wrong?

'Why did Angela lie to Grandpa Lawson that I let her fake a pregnancy?'

Lawson didn't believe a word of her and said through gritted teeth, "Do you still want to make excuses for yourself?"

"I'm not making excuses, Grandpa Lawson!" said Jessica anxiously, "As I've always wanted to be with James, how could I provide any idea to Angela?"

"Yes, of course, you are not that kind to provide her an idea," said Lawson.

Hearing that, Jessica was slightly relieved. Her clothes had been drenched with cold sweat.

However, Lawson continued, "You deliberately provided her this idea! Now you come to tell me her fake pregnancy with the purpose of using me to deal with her for you, don't you? What a perfect plan as every step is closely linked to another!" 'How dare she use me! No one can use!'

"Let me explain, Grandpa Harvey. This is completely illogical..." said Jessica with a pale face.

"Jessica, you should never want to use me. You'll regret it soon!" interrupted Lawson with a malicious look on his face, "Plus, Angela is pregnant for real. So your plan of using me to deal with her falls through!

With these words, Lawson left with Nathen and his men before Jessica could explain anything.

Although Jessica could walk now, she didn't want to limp in public. So she hurriedly drove the wheelchair to chase them and called, "Grandpa Harvey--"

There was no response.

Lawson didn't even look back.

The eyelid of Jessica twitched wildly and her limbs went limp.

'What's going wrong?'

'How do things come to this?'

Suddenly, Jessica clutched the armrests of the wheelchair and maliciousness flashed across her eyes.

'I got it. Grandpa Harvey said Angela told him...Angela is pregnant for real...So the hickey on her neck!' 'Angela is scheming against me?!'

Thinking of that, Jessica suddenly had her pupil contracted.

After getting out of the hospital, Angela went back to the house of the Chante family with James.

After getting off, Angela noticed that the window of the second floor was open and her mother Elva was standing by the window blankly.

"It's cold now. Don't be in a draught as it's bad for your health," reminded Angela with a hesitation.

Elva was stunned for a moment as if scared by the voice of Angela and said in a flurry, "Eh, I just want to look at the scenery. I'll close the window now." She smiled guiltily at Angela and closed the window.

With a slight frown, Angela said nothing and took out her phone to send a message to Roland, asking if he knew other good psychologists.

Angela almost fell on the ground as she was staring at the phone while walking.

"Be careful!" said James whose sight was following her as he immediately held her waist to pull her into his arms.

"Thanks," said Angela and was still staring at the phone.000000
