“Mr. Meyers, we still have another mission at hand. Sorry that we won’t be coming for dinner,” Willy refused.
Angela looked back at the four of them. “Willy, let me treat you guys to dinner to thank you for taking care of me over the past few days, okay?”
“Miss Meyers, the fact that you’re safe and sound is the best reward for us. We really still have something else to deal with. Goodbye,” Willy said before becoming the first to leave.
Reluctant to part with Angela, Trevor and Jared looked at her, whereas Sean said with a wave of his hand, “Goodbye.”
As Angela watched the four tall figures leave, she had a feeling that she might never see them again. Her eyes reddened, and her nose twinged as sadness welled up within her.
Noticing her reddened eyes, Daphne couldn’t help but put her arm around her in an attempt to comfort her. “Look at our daughter. She’s so reluctant to part with them, isn’t she?”
But who knew what sort of mixed feelings she was having at this very moment? She was no longer the person she had once been two months ago. Over the past two months, she had uncontrollably fallen in love with a man while trying to forget him with all her might. She looked alright on the outside, but her heart was already broken to pieces.
“Let’s go!” Gilbert said to Daphne and Angela.
Angela let go of Daphne’s hand and hurriedly ran toward the door from which Willy and the others disappeared. When she stepped out through the door, she saw an army green SUV that had just started up and left. She followed the SUV with her gaze until it disappeared on the other end of the overpass. She pursed her lips while holding back her tears.
At this moment, it was as if these men had never appeared in her world. They weren’t ordinary people in the first place. and their job was also totally different from that of ordinary people. They were like a bunch of unknown heroes who would rush to wherever they were needed. When their mission was complete, they’d disappear without a trace.
Suddenly, it occurred to Angela that she didn’t even have the phone number of any of them. All she knew about them was their names, and all she had was the memory of her living with them.
Daphne caught up to her curiously. what are you looking at?”
“Nothing. Let’s go home.” Angela shook her head before walking toward an inconspicuously black Bentley nearby.
She sat in the car while looking out the car window at the bustling downtown area. Having stayed for two months in the mountains with no phone reception, she fell into a trance-like state upon her return to the bustling metropolis..
Just then, Daphne asked in vexation, “Did you break up with Dexter? He returned all the money I’d given to him. Well, I’d say it’s sensible of him to do that. Otherwise, I won’t let him off so easily.”
Angela nodded. ‘Let’s not mention this guy from now on. I have nothing to do with him anymore.”
“Oh, right, Angela, I told you that you deserve a better man. Don’t worry, I have some nice bachelors around me. I’ll choose a good guy for you.’ Daphne said in an attempt to comfort her. “Mom, I don’t feel like dating anyone for now. I just want to rest for a couple of days.”
Daphne suggested, ‘If you don’t feel like dating anyone, then why don’t you come to my office? It’s time for you to try to take over my position.” She had been suffering from migraines since her previous car accident. Therefore, she planned to step down from her position and let her daughter learn how to run the company.
The Meyers Residence had taken on an entirely new look. A variety of flowers and plants were grown again in the once excavated garden; even the security system had been replaced by a top-level one. Sitting in the car, Angela suddenly saw through the car window that someone was running happily toward the car.
Angela’s pupils shrank slightly. It was Annie.
When Angela opened the car door, Annie trotted over and took her hand excitedly. “You’re back at last, Angela. You scared me to death.” She had her care for Angela written all over her face.
Inwardly, Angela was overcome with shame and self-reproach. Seeing how naive and kind-hearted Annie was, she felt she had made a huge mistake.
She was glad that she had learned of Annie’s engagement to Richard in advance. Otherwise, how hurt Annie would be if she were to talk about him when she came back and tell the former about what had happened at the base? “Annie, thank you for caring about me,” she thanked with a sigh.
“It’s lucky that all the dangers are gone. From now on, we can go shopping and chat over coffee again with peace of mind,” Annie said happily.
Just then, Daphne said, “Angela, hurry and take a shower. Then we’ll take a look at the presents that I’ve prepared for you.”
Angela knew without thinking that Daphne must’ve bought a lot of designer clothes and handbags for her. However, she was no longer interested in these things now.
“Mom, don’t waste money for me anymore, Angela said to Daphne.
Daphne was stunned. Why does my daughter look depressed after I haven’t seen her for a few months? She is much more mature than before; even her smile betrays a hint of weariness.
I’ve doted on her since she was little, so I know her personality better than anyone else does. She threw a hissy fit and was at odds with me over Dexter when she came back from overseas last time. Why is she like a totally different person now?
“Let’s go, Angela! Let’s take a look together. Annie dragged Angela into the living room with a smile.
They took the elevator to Angela’s master bedroom on the fourth floor, where the couch was covered with presents, as well as clothes and handbags from luxury brands. Annie picked up a necklace, saying, ‘Here is my present for you. It’s not expensive, but you mustn’t frown upon it.”
“Why would I? I’m happy that you could come and visit me,’ Angela replied while looking at Annie with an apologetic look in her eyes.
Annie then picked up a handbag and introduced it happily, saying, “Look, Angela. This is the latest item that your mom bought for you. This handbag is worth more than 3 million!”
However, Angela was looking at her instead of the handbag.
Annie was sharp enough to sense it. She blinked her eyes, asking, “Angela, why do you keep looking at me for no reason?”
Angela lowered her head in panic to conceal the look of guilt in her eyes. “Nothing. Let’s chat again after I take a shower.”
“Just go. I’ll be here waiting for you.” Annie smiled with a nod. She urged Angela, saying, “Hurry and wash yourself. There’s a snag in your clothes.”
Angela entered her bathroom before sitting in the bathtub in a daze. Her life was back, but her heart felt empty, as if there was no happiness for her anymore. She dared not recall those wonderful memories. They’re all sins; I can’t even think about them.
She took a shower. After blowing her hair dry, she wrapped herself in a bath towel and entered the closet, which was 100 square meters in size and was full of the designer clothes that Daphne had bought for her.
