“And you said that you’re not worried about me,” he said with a teasing grin.

“I’m not.”

“Ugh…” Richard suddenly grabbed his arm and made a painful expression.

Angela’s eyes narrowed as she sprang from the couch and ran to the man’s side. She became concerned when she saw him holding his elbow and asked, “What happened? Are you hurt?”

The man’s eyes changed from one of pain to one of playfulness. He narrowed his eyes before saying, “You’re still saying you’re not worried about me? Wow, women really do not mean what they say.

“You…” She became enraged and slapped him on the shoulder. “How dare you lie to me!”

Even after being slapped, Richard was still beaming with joy and pleasure. After that, he went and made himself comfortable on her couch. Anyone who looked at him could tell he was tired because of the space between his brows.

She felt pity for the man and reasoned that his exhaustion could be attributed to a new assignment. “Go back home and get some rest!” She made several attempts to get him to leave.

He quickly glanced at her with his deep black eyes before resting his head on his arms and closing his eyes. “Don’t worry. I’m only using your couch for a short time. I’ll be leaving shortly.”

Angela’s anxiety increased as she became aware that the man shouldn’t even be in her room; she knew this was already a mistake. “Don’t be a rascal, Richard Lloyd. Just get up and go.” She grabbed the man’s arms and tried to pull him to his feet Suddenly, the man reached out and grabbed her slender arm, pulling her into his arms. Dar to his significant exertion of force, she had no choice but to submit and fall into his arms without resistance.

After she started to feel anxious and disoriented, he wrapped his arms around her waist, and she suddenly found herself on the ground beneath hin “You…” Angela, who was slightly dazed, looked up at Richard in bafflement. She knew what he was about to do when she noticed his relatively heavy breathing.

In the past, Angela had thought the man was cold and indifferent. But when she got to know the man, she didn’t expect to find that underneath that icy exterior was a heart that burned so fiercely that it could melt her.

As he prepared to kiss her, she instinctively reacted by blocking his lips. Nevertheless, the man quickly locked her arms above her head. She was so angry that she was on the verge of passing out due to being forced to act in such an embarrassing manner.

Given her predicament, she would be helpless to stop the man from doing whatever he wanted to her. “Let me go. Richard Lloyd, you better let me go before I-”

She was about to vent her frustration when the man cut her off. Her mind went blank as a firework display went off in her consciousness. She shivered slightly under the man because his kisses had always been aggressive. She had no way out of the man’s grasp and was helpless against him.

Angela felt like she was dying inside from this feeling. It wasn’t just the intensity of his kisses that left her feeling overpowered; it was also the weight of her guilt. Her guilty conscience grew more significant when she realized she was losing herself in the man’s tender kisses.

At this point, she might as well have been a villain because she was robbing Annie of her happiness. She finally gave in to the weight of her emotions, and tears streamed down her face. Only when she started crying between the man’s kisses did he realize what was going on, so he stopped and let her go.

“Why are you crying?” Richard looked at her, perplexed because he knew she didn’t mind the kiss and had even reciprocated it.

She averted her gaze to avoid looking at him. Then, there was a knock on the door. She was so startled that she pushed the man away in response. He showed his cooperation by sitting up and allowing her to leave. After that, she said, “I’m sleeping.”

Angela, I know you’re still awake. I’d like to speak with you,” Daphne insisted.

Angela’s face turned as white as a sheet when she heard the door being pushed open. She grabbed Richard’s arm and dragged him into her dressing room before opening her enormous cabinet door. “Hide inside here and don’t come out,” she said sternly.

Despite feeling melancholy, he obediently hid in the suffocating cabinet, his tall body slightly curled up.

Just as she shut the door to her cupboard, she heard her mom call out, “Why didn’t you answer me?”

Angela turned her head, terrified, and said, “Mom, I’m looking for my pajamas.”

“Are you not wearing them now?”

Her face immediately flushed as she looked down at herself. She was not only dressed in her pajamas, but she was also not wearing any undergarments. It was only now, as a result of the events, that she realized she had forgotten to put it on. Does this mean that man could feel everything when he was on top of me? Oh, no!

“Why are you taking so long? Come out and talk to me!” Daphne demanded.

Daphne sighed after Angela sat on the couch. “I’m just so happy that I couldn’t sleep, so I wanted to talk to you. I’ve decided it’s time for you to take over the company. You should take over my responsibilities now because I’m already old and have been suffering from headaches since the car accident.”

She nodded calmly as she listened to her. “All right, Mom. I’ll try to take over your company.”

“Well, I’m sure you’ll do just fine. Come to the office with me tomorrow. It’s time I introduce you to everyone.”

“Okay,” Angela responded. Anyway, it’s time for me to find something to do.

Daphne was pleased with how her daughter had matured in the aftermath of the incident. Afterwards, she combed Her daughter’s hair and said, “Okay, get to bed early. You look so tired.”

“Sure, I will. You should go to bed early as well.” Angela stood up and led her mom to the door. She went straight to her dressing room after closing her room door.

Richard had already left the cabinet and was standing in the room when he realized the door was closed. Standing tall in the dressing room, he was overcome with emotion as he spoke to Angela, who had just entered the room. He mentioned, “Tomorrow, I’ll call Annie and tell her I’m breaking off our engagement.

Richard didn’t want to delay it any longer.

How are you going to tell her?” Angela’s chest tightened as she worried his comments would be harsh.

“I’ll tell her the truth that I’m in love with another woman and convince her to call off the engagement.” He would never fabricate a story about his feelings.

She looked at him calmly and replied, “Please, don’t mention that it’s me.”

With a glimmer in his eyes, Richard nodded, hesitant yet kind, and said, “Alright, I promise.”

“Try not to hurt Annie,” she pleaded.

“That is unavoidable. But I’ll try to be as gentle as possible for you.” Of course, he would try to be nicer to Annie for the sake of Angela.

She nodded. “Thank you.”

Richard glanced at her with a trace of disappointment as she remained silent.

“Don’t you have anything else to say to me?”

“No. Please leave immediately, Captain Lloyd.” Angela restrained her emotions and requested him to leave.

He suddenly stretched his arms and embraced her against his chest. She struggled a bit as he whispered in her ear with a deep voice, “Don’t worry. We have our whole future ahead of us.”

Angela tilted her head up in surprise. Her eyes reflected some of the room’s light, and she hid her excitement about the future under those reflections.

“Believe me.” Richard locked his gaze on her before turning around and leaving the room.

“Let me take you out the front door, or you can even leave through the basement!” She called out to him because she didn’t want him to risk going out the same way he came in.
