Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Angela’s fever had completely subsided. Her whole body felt weak and sore. This fever had really taken years off her life, and she was completely exhausted.
“I want to take a shower. I’m covered in sweat,” Angela requested.
“You can go to Mr. Richard’s room. He isn’t here now,” Trevor said.
Angela’s breathing suddenly stopped. She turned to look at Trevor, blurting out, “He left?”
Trevor smiled hurriedly. “Mr. Richard has some other work, and he may be gone for a week or two. Miss Angela, we will take care of you in the meantime. After you’re completely safe from danger, we’ll take you home.”
Angela’s heart suddenly twinged again, as if a big palm was grasping her beating heart, and she only felt a surge of pain every time her heart pulsed.
“Miss Angela, are you all right?”
“I’m fine.” Angela closed her eyes, attempting to relieve the pain in her heart and comfort herself.
This is only right! Didn’t I want him to leave me? It was a good thing that they wouldn’t talk to each other anymore. Only when the ties between them were completely severed would things return to normal.
“Miss Angela, do you want to lie down for a while?” Upon seeing her pale face and her red lips bitten tightly in her mouth, as if she was about to faint at any time, Trevor felt extremely worried.
“When he left, did he say anything?” Angela turned her head and asked.
“No. Mr. Richard just asked us to take care of you, and he might not return to take you back.” After Trevor finished speaking. he looked away a little guiltily as Richard was the one who said these things to them and told them not to mention him to Angela as much as they could.
As for where he went, Trevor didn’t know either, but he knew that the boss had no jobs on hand, and he probably left to distract himself.
“Really?” Angela pursed her lips bitterly as she recalled Richard’s words from two days ago. He had told her that as long as she didn’t want to see him, he would never appear in front of her.
So, he’s trying to keep his words? Angela’s eyes suddenly stung, and she blinked quickly; she didn’t want to cry in front of Trevor. Getting up, she said, “I’m going to take a shower.”
Angela returned to her room and took a change of clothes before she went to Richard’s room. The entire room was clean and tidy, and even the bed was flat and seamless.
Clearly, this man had not slept here in the past two days. Has he really disappeared? Angela’s tears suddenly fell. She wiped her tears embarrassedly and walked in the direction of the bathroom.
It was only after she sat in the bathroom and turned on the tap that she dared to wail loudly. However, after she had cried her heart out, she realized that she still felt awful and decided to take a quick shower before leaving the bathroom.
She blow-dried her waist-length hair and changed into a set of white pajamas before covering herself up with a coat, all while looking listless.
When she saw the glass on the table, she reached out and took it. Then, she walked toward the kettle and poured a glass of warm water for herself, slowly sipping at it.
While Angela drank, her tears suddenly gushed out again. She set down the glass of water and sat on the couch with her hands covering her face like a child as she sobbed.
However, she wasn’t aware that in one corner of the room, there was a camera swiveling around like an eyeball, watching every corner of the room.
At that moment, in a small town two hours away from the base, a black SUV was parked under an inconspicuous tree. As the man in the car stared at the woman on the computer screen and watched her cry in his room, his hands slowly balled into fists. Was she really that sad? He had followed her wishes and left, so why was she still unhappy?
Just then, on the screen, Angela wanted to get up to get something, but as soon as she stood up, the man predicted that she would hit herself and warned in a low voice across the screen, “Be careful.”
Alas, as expected, the woman on the screen did not notice the corner of the couch in her path and bumped her knee viciously into it.
She crouched on the floor in pain, and the man on the screen sighed anxiously. This feeling of watching her get hurt but unable to do anything made Richard inexplicably anxious. He stared at the woman who was rolling her trousers up on the screen.
She had hit herself on the exact spot where she had scratched herself while kneeling on the ground last time, and as a new injury was added onto her previous injury, her knee was currently covered in blood.
On the screen, Angela was calm and tough. She stared at her wound in a daze, as if she didn’t even want to deal with it.
What was she doing? Richard waited anxiously for her to get the first aid kit, but even after five minutes, the woman remained motionless. Did she not know where the first aid kit was?
However, Angela wasn’t moving because she couldn’t be bothered to. The place she was hurting the most wasn’t her knee, but her heart. On the contrary, as she looked at the injury on her knee, she recalled the last time Richard squatted down to stop the bleeding and bandage her knee, which caused her to become immersed in her memories again.
Is this woman not going to deal with her wound? Her knee is already this hurt, but she’s still spacing out? Richard let out a sigh. In the end, he tapped a few buttons with his fingers and said in a low voice toward the screen, “The first aid kit is in the cupboard. Go get it yourself.”
Angela, who was staring into nothing in the room, seemed to hear Richard’s voice coming from the room all of a sudden. Because she had been spacing out, she thought she had imagined it. Still, she couldn’t help but raise her head and look around before she looked at the door again, only to realize that it was just her own imagination. He wasn’t there at all.
However, just then, a man’s voice sounded from the direction of the clock hanging on the wall again. “Stop spacing out. Hurry up and deal with your wound.”
This time, his voice sounded clearly in her ears, causing Angela to dart to her feet in fright and stare at the direction of the clock. “Richard, is that you?”
“It’s me.”
“Where are you?”
“You don’t have to know. Go and get the first aid kit from the cupboard and treat your wound.”
Angela’s pale face flushed red in an instant. She couldn’t believe that he was actually monitoring his room. If that was the case, everything she did in the room just now, including the way she went mad and sobbed like a fool, had been seen by him.
All of a sudden, she didn’t even want to remain alive anymore. She felt humiliated, ashamed, and furious at the same time, and she couldn’t help but yell in the direction of the clock, “Richard, you’re terrible!”
“I thought you didn’t want to see me?”
“I… I don’t want to see you, b-but why are you spying on me?” Angela asked, feeling distressed.
The man on the other end fell silent and did not answer. Angela glared in the direction of the clock resentfully. If she had carelessly taken off her clothes in his room earlier, or came out with just a bath towel wrapped around her to get her things, wouldn’t he have seen it?
“Get the first aid kit. Don’t let your wound get infected,” he ordered in a low voice.
Hence, Angela could only head toward the door of the cupboard and open the third compartment, where she brought out the first aid kit from inside.
As she sat on the couch and opened the first aid kit, the man immediately told her which bottle was the antiseptic so that she could clean her wound and bandage it.
