Chapter 313 Because I Threatened Her.


    She sniffed with sarcasm, "Mr. Chante, why are you telling me this abruptly? Trying to move me?"


    "No. I just want to say my family are not who I thought they were." Danis said with dull eyes on his


    weary face.


    Ang didn''t want to hear him talking, nor did she feel like facing him.


    "Have you finished? Then I have to go."


    "Having known I decided to split with my family, people closed to me tried to persuade me not to. And


    yet they broke contact with me under the threat of my family after realizing I had no intention to return


    home.


    "Ang, I suddenly understood how you had felt two years ago: It''s like the whole world shattered, and


    everything and everyone changed, like a nightmare, yet more cruel. No, maybe my pain was not a


    tenth as yours.


    "Ang, I''m sorry ... really." Danis lost his former arrogance, conveying a feeling of depression from top


    to toe.


    Ang looked down and stayed still for a moment. As she walked past him, she said drily, "Take care."


    Although she spoke barely above a whisper, it sounded like a deafening roar to Danis. With a twinkle in


    his eyes, Danis held her arm and said, "You don''t need to worry about the bnce to the Chante


    Group, for I have taken a chance and called Jessica before she guaranteed actively that she would


    The only one able tofort him in the world was Jessica. She was not so pitiless as he had thought.


    Ang stopped to push his hand aside. She sneered, "I had regarded myself the most stupid person,


    but I didn''t expect that I''m notparable to you."


    Danis got puzzled, "What do you mean?"


    "Do you really think Jessica made a promise out of guilt when you called her for this?" Ang asked.


    Danis responded with his cracked lips quivering, "Isn''t that so?"


    "Of course not." Ang looked at Danis with her lips curved, but there''s not a trace of a smile in her


    eyes. "It''s because I threatened her, at noon."


    Danis''s pupils narrowed suddenly, his face turning as pale as a piece of paper. He struggled to keep


    bnce with hands bracing against the wall after staggering a few steps.


    Jessica ... Jessica!


    "See you." Ang had intended to say "Farewell", yet she changed her mind at thest moment. She


    left Danis alone in shock before taking the esctor upstairs.


    Finding out the phone call was from Violet , Ang called back.


    "This time you have done a good job. Come back, and James is here waiting for you." Her tone


    softened a little in contrast with the past.


    Ang frowned mildly, hung up after a response and returned to thepany by taxi.


    Adams was about to go out for some legwork when he came across Ang. He thumbed up to her and


    said, "Good job! How did you make the Smith Group pay?"

    "Probably my pretty look touched Mr. Shaw''s heart?" Ang smiled.


    Adams stopped pursuing, noticing her unwillingness to talk in detail. "You have caused a sensation this


    time! Well, let''s talkter. I have to go now."


    "See you, Adams." Ang waved her hand to him, and then get in the elevator to Violet''s office.


    James was sitting in the office, saying something to Violet. It seemed that both were in a high mood.


    Violet said, "If I was some twenty years younger, I''m afraid I would be dazzled by your charm."


    "Then I can only say luckily it didn''t happen, or I would have to break your heart." James nced at


    Ang unnoticeably.


    Ang acted as if she hadn''t seen him, standing aside silently, making James knit his brows slightly.


    "You have done a good job this time." Violet stood up and patted Ang on her shoulder. "You have


    been working so hard these days, so you can have a half-day off today so that you can go out with


    James."


    In addition to James, Adams and others also thought Violet demanding. Hearing thepliment from


    her, Ang''s frayed nerves settled a bit. She said, "Thank you, madam."


    Seeing her showing nocency for her work, Violet felt barely satisfied.


    Ang walked out of the office with James and got into the elevator. A lot of people recognized James,


    some of whom regarded him as their idol and even went up to ask for his signature restraining their


    excitement.


    James hadn''t asked until they got out of the Chante Group and were about to enter the car, "Why did


    you go to Jessica?"


    "For I was d to." Ang fastened her safety belt, and then looked forward.


    James leaned his body towards her, pinched her jaw with his hand, and turned her head to force her to


    face him.


    "I hate my jaw held by others like this." Ang pushed away his hand and said slowly, "It has been a


    long time since I wanted to say it."


    James loosened his tie, his eyes impaling her. "Why didn''t tell me before you went to Jessica?"


    "For nothing." Ang turned her head away, looking outside.


    She just didn''t want to ce overdue reliance on someone, because that''s too dreadful. How long


    could a rtionshipst when it depended just on a man''s love?


    Perhaps nobody could answer, maybe for a lifetime, or just for a second.


    Silence.


    It seemed that the air liquified into the water gradually and blocked people''s ears, eyes and noses. The


    atmosphere became utterly depressing.


    James had never ttered a woman like this, only to meet her indifference. He sat up and undone a


    button on his shirt. He asked with a bit stony tone, "Ang, are you sure what you are doing?"


    "With all those words," Angpressed her lips and said, "James, are you pissed at me just for I


    was not doing what you wanted me to do?"


    James strained his handsome face, with his right hand on the wheel, knocking it randomly.


    "What if I talked about that with you, asked for your permission, always reported everything to you and


    acted ording to your preference? Then you would be satisfied?"


    James asked with a slight frown, "After making the Smith Group''s stock slump, do you really think


    Jessica will sit by?"


    "It''s a different thing." Feeling thirsty, Ang unscrewed the cap of a bottle of water. "James, you are


    used to issuing orders and calling the shots. But I don''t like to be dominated by others or let others


    make decisions for me."


    She uttered a sound ofughter, which didn''t reach her face yet. "Maybe I would ept that before, but


    after the car ident, I would not anymore. James, your love makes me feel insecure."


    She felt like in heaven when he loved her, but would fall into hell when he didn''t.


    James frowned again, "I said you will always be the only one in my heart."


    "You are barely twenty-five and you''ve got a long way to go," said Ang.


    James replied, "I believe in myself."


    "But I don''t. People change." Nobody could understand this better than her.


    A woman could be with a man for his money or power, but not purely for his devotedness. Because


    when love dispersed, there''s nothing left.
