Chapter 275 Have the Urge to Kiss
James blinked but didn''t look away. "You were watching me just now, and now I''m watching you. It''s
reciprocity."
Ang stopped what she was doing and stared at him with a frown.
"Did you know scientific research shows that," James asked, "when a man and a woman look each
other in the eye for over five minutes, they will have the urge to kiss?"
Ang looked away and continued dressing his wound. "Why did say those words that would provoke
your grandpa deliberately?"
"If I hadn''t provoked him, how would he have asked someone to p me? If he hadn''t asked someone
to p me, how would you have worried about me?" James'' voice became much lighter when he said
thest words.
Ang couldn''t tell whether James was telling the truth or not, nor did she want to get into it. She
finished dressing his wound in a rush and said, "I''ll go back to the Chante house as soon as possible
when I get ready."
After that, Ang went upstairs with the medical box without looking at him.
Ang''s slightly red ears shed across James'' mind. He leaned back against the sofa, gave a faint
smile, and closed his eyes for rest.

Ang went back to the room, closed the door behind her, put the medical box on the floor and sat on
the bed.
The scenes of James being pped by Lawson or Nathen kept shing through Ang''s mind. She
frowned, forced herself to shake it off and picked up the phone.
There were two pieces of news on the screen. One of them was about Lewis and Danis apologizing to
her on behalf of Jessica. The mediaplimented the Smith family and the Lewis family on their
integrity.
The other one was a video showing Adeline standing in front of Dream Club, and she was rebuked by
media for calling ck white and never confessing her fault.
Opinions were divided into two main groups online. About 65% people believed that like mother, like
daughter. The Smith family had gone too far by doing this, and the problem couldn''t be solved with an
apology.
About 35% people believed that Danis didn''t seem to be faking it when he made an apology on his
knees. Besides, Lewis was apologizing to Ang sincerely. The one who did wrong was Jessica, and
the rest of the Smith family and the Lewis family shouldn''t get involved. It was not right to tar the others
with the same brush.
Outwardly, these were just two news reports. However, if one took a good look at it, he could find out
that the media covering the first piece of news were mostly owned by or intended to woo the Smith
Group, while the media covering the second one the Harvey Group.
Fundamentally speaking, it was the fight between the Smith family and the Harvey family. Whoever
more powerful would be the winner of the war of words.
Ang had used to believe that no one was able to control what other people said, but now she
realized that it couldn''t be easier for one to control public opinion as long as he was powerful enough.
Ang put away her phone andy on the bed.
The things she had gone through all these years shed across her mind one after another, making her
head splitting. She took a deep breath and sat up.
Meanwhile, her phone vibrated. It turned out to be a text message sent by Eleanor—
"Do you still remember the two doctors who did the pregnancy examination for you that day? Lawson
had his people investigate them. Fortunately, I thought of these in advance.
Besides, since yesterday, our deputy director has been checking the list of test tube babies. It should
be arranged by Lawson too. Just to be on the safe side, it''s better for you to get pregnant naturally with
President Harvey."
Each more word Ang read, her frown deepened a bit.
Before she could reply the message, Eleanor sent her another one—
"If you''re afraid of the pain for the first night, I have some medication for you to take after it. XOXO"
Ang, "…"
Ang edited a text message in which she expressed her gratitude to Eleanor, and then declined the
medication offered by her.
At about 5.30 pm, James went upstairs to ask Ang to have dinner.
Ang nced at James'' handsome face. The swelling had already gone down a lot, but his cheeks
were still red and swollen. Then she frowned slightly, nodded, and went downstairs with him.
"This time, the Smith Group will suffer losses, no matter how hard they''re trying to whitewash
themselves." James picked up the most tender part of the fish belly, boned it and put it in Ang''s
bowl.
Ang stared at the fish in the bowl. "Eat it yourself. I''ll pick up anything I want to eat myself."
"But I like putting food in your bowl. I won''t enjoy my meal without doing that." James put a chicken
wing in Ang''s bowl as he spoke. "Have some more. You''re too skinny."
Ang, "…"
The first words were used to be her favorite phrase to James.
After dinner, Ang stood up and said after a long period of hesitation, "Come to my bedroom tonight."
"What?" James looked up at her, and the bowls in his hands tilted before a chopstick fell to the ground.
tter.
The noise of the chopstick hitting the ground in the dining room was especially clear.
"The hospital director said that your grandfather was still investigating if I was pregnant. Not only did he
investigate the two doctors who checked my body, but he also asked the deputy director to check those
who had test tube babies." Ang''s eyshes were fluttering more quickly than usual. "So…e to
my room tonight."
Ang went upstairs hastily once she finished her words, leaving James no chance to ask any
question.
James put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, bent down to pick up the fallen chopstick and put it
on the bowl. He stared quietly at the ground for a while before he understood what Ang''s words
meant.
James swallowed and looked down, the corner of his mouth twitching inconspicuously. Then he stood
up and walked briskly into the kitchen with bowls and chopsticks in his hands.
Although Ang told James to go to her room tonight, she wasn''t mentally prepared at all.
When she had been deeply in love with James, Ang had been looking forward to this day. She had
even wanted to give birth to a baby for him, and be a good wife.
However, now that she had experienced so many harsh realities, Ang was a little afraid.
Not only was she afraid that she wouldn''t be able to take care of her baby, but she was also afraid that
it wouldn''t be fair for this baby if she got pregnant purposefully.
Besides, Ang couldn''t tell what kind of feeling she was having for James now, so she was unable to
sleep with him frankly.
Ang walked around in the room fretfully for a while before she went downstairs for the wine cab.
Maybe the situation would get better when she was drunk.
However, it had not been long since Ang had got here, so she was not familiar with theyout of this
ce. She searched for some time but failed to find anything like a wine cab or a cer. On the
contrary, she saw James sitting in the dining room, drinking red wine.
"What are you looking for?" Shaking the wine ss in his palm, James looked up at Ang.
The red wine bottle was a little far away from Ang, and she couldn''t see the brand name on it clearly,
but she could smell the rich bouquet in the air.
Ang puckered her lips and said, "… Nothing."
After that, she turned around and was about to leave.
James stopped her from behind. "Are you looking for wine?"
Ang stiffened, maybe out of embarrassment, or maybe out of astonishment. She turned around
slowly, faced him again and nodded.
Just when Ang was about to ask if she could sit down and drink a little wine, James beat her to it,
saying, "Don''t drink wine."
Ang frowned.
"I don''t want you to be drunk, and then regret it the next morning." James finished off the wine in the
ss, stood up and looked her in the eye at a distance.
