"Yes, that's it." Elizabeth nodded.
"Then why did he hug you? Can you explain?"
Elizabeth pursed her lips, "At that time... when you came... well, I just wanted him to let go of me at that time, and I didn't expect that he would suddenly do that."
James nodded gently and chuckled. Then, he turned around and walked to the desk.
Just as his hand was about to touch the cigarette box on the table, he suddenly swept the large pile of documents on the table to the ground. Then, he smashed the phone, penholder, and ornaments...
Elizabeth was startled and widened her eyes. Looking at James's crazy behaviors, she opened her mouth, "James..."
After James smashed another ornament on the ground with a loud noise, Elizabeth could no longer say a word. She stood still with her body trembling and didn't know what to do.
When everything on the table had been pushed to the ground, James finally stopped. He stood there, his chest heaving.
"James..." Elizabeth said with a trembling voice, "Don't be like this..."
James took a deep breath and turned around. His face darkened to the extreme as he said, "What's wrong? Can't I be angry?" After that, he smiled sarcastically, "Elizabeth, do you think I'm stupid? You and Theodore appeared in Grand Dynasty Hotel together, and you followed him and even hugged him! Elizabeth, how could it be so coincidental?"
Elizabeth took two steps forward in a hurry. She wanted to hold his hand, but she forced herself not to do so when she reached out, "I don't know why such things happened. Anyway, it was not my real intention."
"Not your real intention?" James looked at her and felt it more and more ridiculous, "Then why did you rush forward and protect him? How do you explain it?" Did she know how shocked he was when he saw her protect Theofore recklessly?
He regretted and blamed himself for beating her indeed, but his heart ached because she did such a thing for another man in front of him.
Had she thought about his feelings when she did that?
Elizabeth shook her head slightly. She was so flustered that her eyes were filled with tears. She had a burning pain on her face, but she couldn't care about it and said in a hurry, "Don't you know why I did that?" She clenched her fists, and she still felt so anxious when she thought about the scene at that time, "I don't care why you did that to Chao Company and the Chaos, but you've beaten him so fiercely! Isn't that enough? He has nothing now. Why do you have to kill him?"
James narrowed his eyes and listened to her words, feeling a dull pain in his heart. She was actually speaking for Theodore at this time.
He said coldly, "What? Do you feel sorry for her? Do you think I shouldn't have done that?" As he said this, his eyes became extremely malicious, "Elizabeth, I think you are heartless and ungrateful!"
Being roared at by him, Elizabeth's body shivered, "I just don't want you to beat him to..."
Before she could finish her words, James shouted, "You know why I did that, don't you? Huh? Who did I do that for?" He pointed at his nose excitedly, "Am I not good to you? Is it because you're cold- blooded that you can't feel it? It was you who pushed me to do that!"
But what about the result?
He was really afraid. He did not dare to make those decisions so rashly and impulsively again, because that would make him so ridiculous. He was afraid that he would once again be like a clown that had been abandoned by her. He would not only lose face, but his heart would also be more painful.
He only had one heart. If she continued to hurt his heart like this, his heart would be broken.
Elizabeth thought for a moment, but still went forward and held his hand as tightly as she could with both hands, "I know that you're angry with me, and you also blame me. But two days have passed, can't you choose to forgive me for the sake of our happy memories in the past?"
She stared at his face and continued, "That day, you didn't listen to my explanation, but I know that you were just mad at that time, and I understood your feelings. But now, can you listen to me carefully?"
James lowered his eyes and stared at her hands that were tightly holding his hands. He didn't nod, but he didn't refuse.
"I took the pills indeed. At that time, I just thought that I was young, and I hadn't graduated yet. Moreover, I wanted to work for a few years. I was really stupid, so I wouldn't even know what my life would be like if I hadn't met you. I was grateful to meet you, and I really love you. I wanted to make myself the best woman so that I could match you better and be with you reasonably. You were so excellent, but I was not good at anything, and I was stupid. If I couldn't even have a strong point, I was afraid that people would say that James had married such a good-for-nothing."
"At that time, I didn't tell you my plan. Yes, I didn't think about it carefully and I was selfish. Now I apologize to you solemnly and sincerely. Can you forgive me?"
"Besides, about the pills..." Elizabeth paused, "I have really stopped eating them. Believe me, okay?"
