Chapter 204 Mental Worries
Angela’s gaze paused on James, and he seemed to be aware of it and looked in her direction.
With their eyes locked, James frowned almost invisibly, and Angela withdrew her gaze blankly.
“What’s the matter?” Roland asked after seeing her not following up.
Angela pulled her lower lip slightly, and said lightly, “Nothing.”
After speaking, she followed.
Raya glanced at Angela, “You don’t look good, are you OK?”
“I’m fine. Walking makes me tired.” Angela walked in just as the elevator door opened.
Raya waved at her, with a dazed expression, “This is going upstairs, why are you going in?”
“I read it wrong and thought it was going downstairs.” Angela replied absent-mindedly, and got off the elevator.
The four parted ways after getting off the elevator. Sean and Raya went back to the law firm, while Angela went to the hospital with Roland.
After getting in the car, Roland started the car, “I heard from my colleagues that you have a lot of old illnesses. In addition to not eating on time and living in a humid place for a long time, it actually has a lot to do with your mood.”
“You seem to have emphasized the mood problem to me several times.” Angela said with a slightly hollow look out of the window.
Roland turned the steering wheel and entered the left lane. “Trauma can be cured, but mental worries are not. If you have something on your mind, you might as well talk to someone about it. If you don’t have the right person to talk to, you can write it down and it will be better.”
“Thank you for your suggestion.” Angela rubbed her sore eyebrows and answered absent-mindedly.
She was unable to sleep last night after changing to a new place. After finally falling asleep in the middle of the night, she continued to have nightmares as usual.
Seeing that she didn’t want to talk more, Roland looked ahead and focused on driving.
After the two arrived at the hospital, Roland gave Angela’s leg an overall examination. “The situation is not bad. I will give you acupuncture again today. During this time, you should take a good break, and come back to the hospital in a week.”
Angela nodded. The scene of the glamorous woman almost falling into James’ arms flashed through her mind, which made her frown.
“How did you feel after the last acupuncture?” Roland asked after finishing the needle.
“Sour and weak, but it was fine the next day.”
“Yeah.” Roland nodded, and then glanced at his phone, “It will be over in an hour. I have something to do now, and I will be back in a while.”
“Take your time.” Angela said.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Roland asked a few questions before he left.
Not long after he went out, someone knocked on the office door. Angela pursed her lips and said, “Come in.”
The door opened, and an old lady with grey hair and good temperament walked in.
“Are you looking for Dr. Roland? He is…” The word ‘absent’ swallowed when he saw Mr. Lawson Harvey, James’ grandfather behind the old lady.
They should have made a special trip to see her. Angela has only seen the powerful Lawson several times, but was very impressed. He was a selfish and domineering old man, and he never allowed anyone to refute him.
Lawson, who was wearing a medical suit, didn’t look very good, but even so, he was still powerful.
“I have a needle in my leg, so it is inconvenient for me to get out of bed. Please forgive me.” The Harvey Group was managed by James, the president, but it was Lawson, the chairman of the Harvey Group who really controlled it.
Lawson looked at her up and down, “It seems that you didn’t go to jail in vain. You have become sensible.”
She couldn’t tell whether it was a compliment or a mockery.
Angela lowered her eyes and did not answer. She just clenched her hands tightly, her nails pierced into her palms, a little painful.
“Don’t be nervous, Lawson just wants to ask you a few questions.” the old lady on the side said slowly.
“Are you dating James now?” Lawson sat down and stared at her, like nails to make two holes in her face.
A sneer flashed across Angela’s eyes very quickly. She clutched the sheets under her and said softly, “You should have investigated this matter, why bother to ask me again?”
“Regardless of your parents, even your grandparents, they dared not to treat me with this attitude when they were alive!” Lawson grunted dissatisfiedly, “When I ask you questions, you just have to answer me honestly. Don’t talk any nonsense, and I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense! ”
Angela clenched the bed sheet tightly, took a deep breath and said, “If I am forced to stay by his side, it is what you call dating, then the answer is yes.”
“James will be engaged to Jessica next month, so you can’t stay in City B anymore!” Lawson said irrefutably, “You can prepare in advance. I will arrange someone to send you away!”
Listening to this, Angela raised her head, her eyelashes trembling, “It’s not impossible to drive me away, but I have two conditions.”
“Are you negotiating with me?” Lawson raised his voice a lot.
The old lady patted him on the back and said, “She is a poor girl. If she wants, just let her state two conditions. Don’t be angry with a junior.”
Lawson snorted heavily, and squinted at Angela, “What are they?”
“James threatened me with my brother and sister-in-law and their children. I can leave, but you have to make sure they are safe.” Angela was sweating on her back, “This is the first one.”
Lawson frowned, his face was not very good, but he didn’t say anything.
“The second one is not difficult for you.” Angela wiped the sweat from her head.
Lawson sneered, “Even if it is not a problem for me, do I have to agree?”
“I want to leave after attending Mr. Lewis wedding.” Angela’s hands and feet were weak pretending that she didn’t hear Lawson’s dissatisfaction.
Lawson snorted and fell silent, and the silence in the office was depressing.
Angela, who was pale, licked her dry lips. Her sweat kept coming out, and then it ran down her chin onto her clothes.
“I’ll let someone pick you up at six o’clock in the afternoon on the wedding day!” Lawson said with a sullen face, and then left.
The old lady glanced at Angela with an unusually ugly face, sighed inexplicably, and then followed him.
Angela completely relaxed the moment the door was closed, laying on the hospital bed limply all over. Her clothes were wet as if they had just been salvaged from the water.
But even so embarrassed, she smiled slowly. It was great to leave James soon!
After more than half an hour, Roland came back with two beautifully packaged small bags in his hand. He handed the two small bags to Angela, “I hope you like the gift my mother gave you.”
