“Are you for real? You’re not lying to me, are you?” She lifted her bright-red face and she looked enchanting under the morning glow.
At that moment, Richard felt a flutter in his heart as he ruffled her hair. “I will never lie to you.” His words were firm and sincere.
Angela felt a warm and fuzzy feeling rise up within her as she reached out to cling to his neck. She leaned against his chest at ease. “You’re not allowed to lie to me or leave me, ever.
I will be your responsibility for the rest of your life.” He hugged her tightly and whispered into her ears, “Sure, I will take full responsibility for the rest of your life.”
“Okay! I want to be hugged tightly to sleep by you every night from today onward.” She lifted her head and looked at him with doe eyes, looking innocent yet seductive.
“Sure!” He dropped a kiss on her forehead and noticed that the blanket had slid off her body. There were some reddened marks on her skin and he kissed the spot with a distressed expression.
Angela lowered her head and saw that too as she blushed. “You were so rough last night.”
“I’m sorry.” Richard apologized in a hoarse voice.
“I’m thirsty and I want some water.” Indeed, the spoiled princess could not shake off her habit overnight. Fluttering her eyelashes, she looked at him with indication for him to fetch her some water.
The man smiled in response and stroked her on the nose before getting up. As soon as he rose, his firm and well-toned back was revealed to her.
Angela saw his back and her eyes widened in surprise instantly. Subsequently, she blinked and shifted her eyes guiltily; his back was horrific looking! It must be some wild cat that did that! She would never admit to inflicting such wounds on him.
Hmm? She recalled the past events and realized that it seemed to have been her own doing. Within split seconds, her face flushed redder than ever. How did I even do that?!
By then, Richard had brought a glass of water over for her and personally held the glass to her mouth. “Get up. Let’s go for breakfast.”
“Are you in a hurry to head home?” asked Angela. “I’m not.”
“How about staying for another day? I just want to spend some time with you right now.” She refused to give up this chance to be with him. After all, she wanted to give him some sweet memories to recall if he really went off for the mission.
“Sure.” He nodded and agreed.
After breakfast, they took a stroll outside until Angela felt tired again, so they went back into the room to take a nap. She wanted to hug him as she took a nap, but it was then the man’s urges returned.
She was quite a naughty one as well. Despite being well aware that Richard was trying hard to suppress himself, she purposely tried to provoke him. Once again, she was held beneath him as he straddled her. “Umph, Richard, don’t you dare…”
However, her cries of protest were instantly muffled by him and the intimacy level in the air gradually intensified.
“I love you.” Angela heard his hoarse voice confess his love and she beamed widely as she became submerged in the passionate throes.
They stayed by the seaside for three full days and Richard sent her home after their trip at last. Along the way back, she could not help her emotions and stayed silent.
She was so happy for the past three days, but after the happy moments, she knew that she had to accept the fact that he was due to leave soon.
She was aware that Richard’s expression had tensed up after the phone call he received, so she knew that he had to depart for his mission soon.
After entering the town area, her heart clenched even tighter as they approached her home. At that moment, the man decided to speak up, “Angela, I’ve got something to tell you.”
Angela heaved a tiny sigh as she thought, Ultimately, he’s going to be forthcoming with me, huh?
“You don’t have to say anything. I know what you’re about to say. You’re about to embark on a dangerous mission.” She lifted her head and glanced at him with a worried expression.
At that moment, Richard was slightly stunned. How did she find out?
“Your mom told me about it. I have no intention of stopping you, but all I want is for you to return in one piece.” She looked at him unwaveringly, yet there was an expectant glimmer in her eyes. “I want you to come back to me safe and sound.”
Richard parked his car by the front of her house and glanced at her hopeful, little face before reaching out to stroke the back of her head. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely come back safe and sound.”
“You must keep your promise.” Angela’s eyes were red-rimmed at that point and she could not seem to stop herself from tearing up. Over the past three days, she had tried her best to avoid thinking about this matter, but she knew that she had to face it ultimately.
“I promise I will,” he responded solemnly.
“I need you to swear.” She was not satisfied with his promise. “Swear on my life. If you don’t return, then I’ll even sacrifice my life just to be with you.”
At that point, he felt a pang in his heart as he replied hoarsely, “Stop that nonsense.”
Teary-eyed, she smiled and shook her head. “I’m serious.”
“Trust me. I’ll definitely come back safely.” Richard gave his word firmly.
Meanwhile, Angela lowered her head and glanced at her abdomen. Subsequently, she turned to smile at him. “Once you’re back, you might even become a father then.”
Instantly, the man’s eyes widened. “Didn’t you say… it was a safe window?”
She shook her head and revealed a smug look. “I lied to you. That’s why you must come back because I’m sure you wouldn’t want your child to address someone else as Daddy.”
Her words infuriated him, yet he could not contain his excitement. He reached out and grabbed the back of her head before kissing her roughly. “Don’t you dare marry someone else!” Angela’s eyes were firm and unwavering as she negotiated, “Come home, then. If you do, then I promise not to marry anyone else but you!”
“Okay.” Richard placed his forehead against hers and promised.
Angela had done everything that she could to ensure that he came back and this was the most effective way she could think of. Despite the potential dangers involved in this mission, he had to come back alive because he had a major responsibility right here.
His grandpa would be fine as he had the security of being taken care of by the country while his mother had her husband’s company. However, he was solely responsible for Angela and their baby.
“I’ll definitely be back. Trust me.” Richard planted a kiss on her forehead after saying that.
She reached out to hug him as well. “I’ll wait for you.”
She alighted from his car and watched as his car disappeared into the horizon.
However, she stubbornly refused to shed a single tear.
