But thinking of her family...

Angela took a deep breath and lowed her head down. Then she slowly knelt down again.

Bang.

Even Cathleen got scared at this time. James still stood behind her, with a pair of relentless eyes.

"Mr. Danis, I hope you can forgive me..."

Before she finished, a glass of liquor was poured over her, "It's been two years, Angela, and you still act as a supplicant because of him."

Angela stunned there. By the time she revived to clean her face, Danis had left already.

He must be disappointed with her.

James remained still. Then he came by, "Since the guest hasn't forgiven you yet, keep kneeling here."

He prepared to leave when finished.

"James..." Angela called out to him and asked gently, "Do you really like Jessica that much?"

His hatred towards Angela was even deeper than Jessica's brother.

"What did you say?"

He paused, and turned a droopy eye on her.

Angela turned her head up. Her makeup had already been messed up, with a funny look on her face. But she was really in despair, "James, I really regret that. I would never fall in love with you, if I knew you were into Jessica. This was the biggest mistake I made in my life."

He listened carefully this time, with his gloomy face turning darker.

For a moment, he fleered scarily, "Really?"

"Then what can we do? Angela, regret is the last thing to remedy in this world."

The winter in City B this year was extremely cold.

Angela knelt down in front of the club in her short cheongsam uniform. She looked pale and her wet hair was even frozen.

She almost fainted from the freezing weather and her leg pain.

The club got more crowded as time got close to midnight. People would sneer at her when they passed by. But she didn't care at all and just kept her head down. Looking at her freezing red hands, she tried to cut herself off from the world. It was the habit she had practiced for the past two years.

She was always under attack in prison. At first, she would resist at first, but it resulted in more severe assaults. So she gave up and just emptied her mind when they hit her badly. When those people got tired, they would set her free eventually.

She just hoped that both James and Danis would leave her alone.

After a while, Julia snuck a jacket out and tossed it to her. She frowned, "Put it on. It's been two hours. Otherwise, you will die of coldness."

Angela startled. She picked up the jacket, and replied with a husky voice, "Leave me alone, or I may get you in trouble."

"Are you still thinking of me at this time?" Julia didn't know exactly how Angela offended them. She sighed and said, "I've already told you to quit. Now you almost died because of this job. Wait here. Let me get some hot water for you..."

Angela didn't want to get her in trouble. She lifted her hand and tried to stop Julia. But instead, a wave of dizziness hit her all of a sudden.

"Bang", She fell down.

Her forehead hit the marble heavily. Dazedly, she heard Julia calling her in fright, then she had a blackout and completely lost consciousness.

Right now in the club, James was sitting at the manager's office with a sullen face. A woman in good shape steeped a pot of tea for him.

The hot tea perfumed the air in room.

She was good at observation and knew James was in a bad mood. She ignored those and reminded him cautiously, "It's said that the lowest temperature tonight is - 12 degrees. I'm afraid the flowers I bought a few days ago will not survive."

"It's just flowers. We can get another batch."

"But what about people?"
