No!
She was in a panic. She didn't want to be misunderstood by him. This made her fidget.
How could she bear it at this moment, when what Josephine said had been nonsense?
She blurted out, "No..."
At the word "no," James sneered at Josephine breezily: "You hear that? She said no!"
Elizabeth's unsettled heart was relieved by his words. She felt something pleasant hit her heart.
She thought he would misunderstand and be angry, but how could she know that he defended her without being given a full explanation?
Her nose was a little red, and her eyes were also swollen. But even if she was moved to tears, she did not want to shed it in front of Josephine Liang. So she tried to sniff and took a few deep breaths to suppress her tears.
Josephine didn't expect that James would respond with such an attitude, and she's stunned. In most of the case, men would be pissed off and incline to lose judgment. She failed sowing discord and he defended Elizabeth, that bitch!
"Haha! What trick did Elizabeth play? Why could she get what I have been longing for so easily? Why?"
When she came to her senses, she said, "Do you really believe her so much? She may..." James snorted, "I don't believe my woman. Who do I trust? You?"
It was just simple words uttered in a soft voice, but it instantly made the two women present mute.
Elizabeth Liang's heart skipped a beat and her tiny body quivered slightly, petrified by the trust and protection he had placed in her. Her heart ached with warmth.
Josephine froze and she could not believe what she had just heard. Why would James trust her that much out of no reason?
It made her so pathetic compared with Elizabeth's happiness. She's ok with Theodore's recent cold treatment to her. But she' indignant about Elizabeth's almost indulgent treatment by James? How could that be possible!
She blared at Elizabeth with resentment. "Are you proud, Elizabeth? Ah? You randomly seduced a man and got to have a good laugh at me. Are you happy now? You bitch!"
James Lu let go of Elizabeth Liang's hand, stepped forward, raised his large hand, and pinched Josephine's neck. 'Do you want to die?' he asked.
"Bit*h? Who are you cursing?" He had exerted great strength as if he didn't regard her as a woman at all.
Josephine felt as if her throat were on fire and her breathing was difficult. She did not call for help, but instinctively, her mouth opened wide, gasping, with a bizarre smile on her face. Elizabeth was shocked and hurriedly ran up, holding James's hand with both her hands. She was afraid that he would really strangle Josephine to death, so she said in a panic, "James, don't..."
James just frowned and didn't let go.
Josephine forced a sarcastic smile and said with difficulty, "Elizabeth, even if I am strangled to death today, I don't want your pity and plead for my life!" She then stared at James Lu. "What, she just hit me, and now you want to strangle me? Come on! Kill me! You bast*rds!"
