Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

Inside the black VW.

Silence and no sound.

The driver looked in the rear-view mirror at Angela, whose face was unbearably wounded, and there were a few flashes of shock in his eyes, as well as a moment or two of pity and sympathy.

Angela glanced at the driver, then at the man in the passenger seat, with the woman in the back, and didn’t feel unfamiliar.

Two men, one formerly a security guard at Dream Club, one a prince at Dream Club, and the woman, Frank, who left B City not long ago.

She thought it was the big man’s men who had kidnapped her, but she didn’t realise it was the three of them sitting in the car.

“Angela,” it was nearly half an hour later and Frank still hadn’t quite recovered from his shock, “are you …… you really… … Angela?”

She swallowed hard as she said the last two words.

After all, it’s quite a shock to suddenly see someone you thought was dead.

The question confused Angela a little and she frowned, “You’re not helping me because you know I’m Angela?”

Frank smiled sardonically and didn’t have the heart to answer, but it was the driver in front of her who explained it for her.

“Sanshui always considered you a friend and was quite sad when she heard that you died in a car accident. She made a special trip back from overseas this time to attend your funeral too, but there was a heavy snowfall over in G City at that time and the high speed train missed the train, so she didn’t ……”

Frank slapped the driver’s shoulder uncomfortably, “Stop it, why are you talking about this?”

“Seems like a bit of a stretch haha.” The driver slapped her hand away, “Anyway, it’s just that Sansui was pretty upset when she found out about your death, and then this disfigured look you have now made her think of you. When she saw who you seemed to be hiding from, she talked to the two of us and got you up here.”

That’s a bit of a roundabout way of putting it, but it’s not hard to understand.

She was ‘killed’ in a car accident and had burns all over her body, and Frank saw her, a ‘stranger’ covered in burns, and was touched by the situation because of her and wanted to help her, a ‘stranger ‘ A hand.

As it turned out, to my surprise, she was Angela.

“Thanks.” Angela said solemnly.

Without them, I’m afraid she would have found it difficult to escape this time.

Frank waved his hand quickly, “No need to be so polite, it’s nothing.”

The person in the passenger seat interjected, “Hahahahaha …… how easy it is to thank us at Sanshui, Angela, aren’t your family and the Harvey family both particularly rich? Just feel free to give us Sanshui a few million, or a shop or two or something!”

“Will you shut up?” Frank glared at him and turned to Angela, saying sardonically, “Don’t listen to him, I didn’t mean anything else.”

Everyone else had something that she could take without changing her face, except Angela, and she didn’t want them to think she was so profit-oriented.

After a few more words, the driver brought the conversation back to Angela, “Weren’t you dead? How come you’re alive again?”

Angela didn’t want to answer the question, looked back and said, “The men who are trying to get me are partly Mr. Lawson’s and partly from people who are almost as powerful as the Harvey family.”

All three were so stunned that the driver’s steering wheel even skidded and the car came out of an enchanting S-line before finally managing to regain a straight line of travel.

“Didn’t Mr. Lawson die a while ago? Why is he involved again?”

“Oh my God, is that the point if Mr. Lawson is dead or not? The point is, we can’t mess with either one of these guys!”

“…… Angela, what did you do? Why are so many people trying to …… arrest you?”

Their questions were mixed together in a noisy and almost inaudible way.

Angela didn’t answer them, but said, “Just find a hidden place to let me out of the car if you’re afraid.”

She had little friendship with them and they had been righteous enough in bringing her here.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

When the words fell, the car was instantly silent and a pin drop could be heard.

Thinking they were probably really scared, Angela licked her dry lips and said, “Just let me off at the junction up ahead.”

“Well,” Frank said after a long moment of agitation, “why don’t you two get out of the car first and lend me the car.”

She took a card out of her handbag, “The code is six eights, there’s almost two hundred thousand in there, consider me buying this car.”

“Crikey, what’s with the money?”

“I’m not getting off, Adams, if you’re going to get off! I thought my life was just going to pass uneventfully, but I never thought I’d come across something so exciting!”

“Fuck off, get yourself out of the car! The car behind you is catching up, hold on, I’m going to speed up!”

Both refused without even thinking about it.

What man doesn’t want to have a hot experience? Besides, Angela is the woman James loves and the jewel of the Chante family. If they can really help her this time, what will they get out of it?

A chance to make it to the top is right in front of them, and there’s no place like this after this village!

The car accelerated violently and Angela grabbed a firm grip, “Thank you.”

The wounds on her body were crumbling and dense with pain, but she gritted her teeth and endured them without making a sound.

“You’re welcome, if you’re okay this time, just don’t forget a few of us!” The driver looked in the rear view mirror and said quickly, “Damn, this car doesn’t work, it can’t outrun those cars behind it!”

“Why don’t we call the police? They can’t be so blatant in a society governed by the rule of law!” Sweat broke out on the forehead of the man on the passenger side.

The car behind us was getting closer and closer, and it looked like it was going to follow.

Frank’s body was shaking and he somewhat regretted the decision he had just made, but it was too late to backtrack now, “I …… I’m calling the police ……”

“Don’t!” Angela stopped, “Don’t call the police.”

She didn’t know what the identity of the person behind the curtain was, but judging from those previous events, that person could interfere with the police. If she called the police now, she might be shooting herself in the foot.

“If we don’t call the police, just us, helping …… won’t help you!” Frank looked at the approaching car and regretted it more and more.

Why had she just decided to help Angela on a whim?

“There were police cars following earlier and now they’ve been left behind, do you think the police are weak?” Angela asked.

Frank’s face went abruptly white, “You-you-you mean that someone in the people who want to kidnap you can manage to control the police?”

Angela nodded, also seeing that she was scared, “If you’re scared, just let me out in front.”

When she said that, Frank wandered off instead.

“No …… not afraid!” The driver blocked Frank’s retreat, “But just running away like this won’t work for sure! Angela, can you get someone to help?”

“Hmm. Lend me your phone.”

It had gotten to the point where she just didn’t want to expose herself, but she couldn’t. If Mr. Lawson or the man caught her, it would only add to James’ mess.

The man in the passenger seat hurriedly handed her the phone.
