Chapter 240 Fever


    The scene of James applying the suit jacket to her and the appearance of his soaked shirt clinging to


    his body were constantly appearing in her mind.

    Ang turned on the bedsidemp and sat up. She got out of the bed with a pale look and walked to


    the door. She remembered James usually prepared a medicine cab, which should contain anti-fever


    medicine.


    But she didn’t go out of the room after she turned the doorknob and opened the door. She just closed


    the door again.


    James’s fever was none of her business!


    Angy back on the bed with a stern countenance. She huddled in the quilt with her hands around


    the knees and closed her eyes with a frown.


    She stayed awake all night.


    Ang sat up with an appalling headache. She put on her shoes, and went downstairs slightly faster


    than usual. When she saw no one on the sofa in the living room, her face softened. Then she turned


    and went into the kitchen.


    “Breakfast will be ready soon. Go to the dining room now and wait for me.” James was frying eggs with


    an apron. He seemed to suffer from a cold because he spoke with a nasal tone.


    Ang opened her mouth but said nothing in the end. She turned back into the dining room.


    She felt so dizzy and hungry that she rubbed her sore eyebrows. Many thoughts crossed her mind, but


    she didn’t know what she was thinking.


    “Help yourself.” James had already taken off his apron. He put the fried eggs, porridge, and a few stir-


    fried side dishes on the table.


    Ang nced at his pale face, grasped the corner of her clothes slightly, and lowered her head to eat.


    “You didn’t sleep well because you were worried about me?” James asked.


    “No.” Ang didn’t even hesitate for a moment before answering him with a faint expression, “It’s just


    that I was frightened by Lawson, so I didn’t sleep well.”


    James stopped eating, raised his eyes, and looked at her firmly. After a while, he withdrew his gaze,

    “Don’t go to see my grandpa if I’m not with you.”


    “Oh!” Ang sneered and said sarcastically, “It is as easy for him to take me away as you want to keep


    me by your side. Neither of you needs my permission.”


    James held the chopsticks tightly, and his knuckles turned white due to the excessive force. He used


    his chopsticks to nip a handful of beans, but most of the beans fell off before they got into the bowl.


    He picked up tissue to wrap the beans and threw them into the trash can. Then he returned to his seat


    and said, “Change your clothes and go to thepany with me after breakfast.”


    “I didn’t sleep wellst night, and I need to get more sleep.” Ang continued to eat without even lifting


    her head.


    “You have disrupted Grandpa’s n. Even if you have my flesh and blood, Grandpa may not let go of


    you. He doesn’t like us.” James continued, “Go to thepany with meter. You can sleep in the


    lounge.”


    Ang swallowed the fried egg in her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed.


    After eating, they went to the Harvey Group together.


    “Hello, President Harvey.”


    “Good morning, President Harvey.”


    Where they showed up, people kept saying hello to James, and some people sneaked a look at


    Ang.


    “Have you seen enough?” James hugged Ang and nced at those employees.


    Those employees smiled sheepishly and shifted their gazes in a hurry.


    After getting into the elevator, Ang shook off James’s hand and stood in the farthest corner away


    from him.


    James tilted his head to look at her and stepped to her side as if he didn’t know that Ang deliberately


    avoided him.


    Ang frowned, and when the elevator arrived, she was the first to go out.


    A middle-aged man in his 50s was standing outside. Seeing Anging down from the elevator


    dedicated to the president, he raised the corner of his eye with a little surprise.


    “Mr. Howard.” James called the man after getting out of the elevator.


    Mr. Howard retracted his gaze on Ang, walked up to him, and asked anxiously, “I heard that you will


    start the handover of your work and let Ralphie take over the position as the president?”


    “Yeah.” James said while walking into the president’s office, “Come in.”


    Ang didn’t sleep wellst night. Now she became light-headed and had a migraine, so she could


    only follow James in a daze.


    When Ang was wondering if she could go to sleep, James seized her with one hand and massaged


    the middle of her eyebrows with the other hand. His strength was just right.


    “Go to the lounge and sleep. If you feel noisy, you can wear earplugs.” James took Ang to the


    lounge, took out a pair of earplugs from his suit, and put them in the palm of her hand.


    Looking at this scene, Mr. Howard was surprised. He didn’t expect James to be thoughtful.


    “Thank you.” Ang took the earplugs and hesitated before saying.


    James patted her on the head. There was an imperceptible gentleness in his eyes, “Go to sleep now.”


    After speaking, before she backed away, he gave her a kiss on the forehead, exited the lounge, and


    closed the door.


    Ang looked at the closed door, frowned, and wiped her forehead, where he had kissed. She stopped


    her movements until her forehead turned red and then took off her shoes and went to bed.


    The bed and the quilt were full of James’s smell. She thought she couldn’t fall asleep in this


    environment, but she fell asleep shortly after lying down, not knowing why.


    When Ang gained her conscious again, she was awakened by a burst of noise. There seemed to be


    many people talking and walking outside. She sat up, put on her shoes, and opened the door to walk


    out.


    In addition to James and Mr. Howard, there were many other people in the office. They were holding a


    pile of documents in their hands and were busy with something.


    There was someone sitting opposite James. His appearance was almost simr to James’s. But he had


    a mole under his eyes. Besides, his skin was fair and his temperament was somewhat feminine.


    She had met this person before. He was Ralphie, the youngest son of Lawson’s third son.


    Seeing Ang walking out of the lounge, the busy men in the office were taken aback, and they looked


    at her, so did James.


    “Long time no see, Ang.” Ralphie greeted her with a maic voice.


    Ang didn’t know him well and just smiled at him.


    Seeing this, James got up and walked to Ang, just to block Ralphie’s view of her.


    “Is this bugging you? Put on the earplugs and get more sleep. I will take you out for lunch at noon.”


    James had been close to her for a long time, but Ang still felt very ufortable and took a few


    steps back subconsciously.


    “It turns out the rtionship between you and Miss Ang is not as good as I thought.” Ralphie drew


    out his voice.


    James turned around and looked at him expressionlessly, “Well, it’s better than your rtionship with


    Jessica.”


    “Your words carry a sting.” Ralphie propped his chin with one hand, and his mole was exuding


    enchanting light in the sun, “Is it because grandpa asked me to be the president?”


    James said, “No, I just dislike you.”
