“You just have to believe me, then. I will delete your photos as soon as I receive payment,” Dexter ensured.. “I don’t believe you.”
“Well, I don’t think you have the choice. I have the photos in my hands now and I’ve already edited some of them. Angela, your figure must be more perfect than these models. Do you want me to send you a few for you to look at?”
“You… Angela clenched her fists tight.
“Prepare your funds! Otherwise, I’ll be merciless.” With that, Dexter then hung up the phone. He soon sent a few pixelated photos to her, but they were way too extreme. As she opened them, her face turned bright red with rage..
Despite the fact that the photo was photoshopped, Angela felt physical discomfort nonetheless. She tried to relax by shutting her eyes. This dirtbag needs to be jailed as soon as possible. Who knows how many other girls he duped??
Angela debated telling Richard, but if he knew Dexter had threatened her, Richard would undoubtedly track him down and beat him to death. Forget it, I just want Dexter to be locked up. That’s where he should stay. He came to me with full-on threats and evidence. So, I’m going to play along with him one last time!
At that moment, her phone rang again and her heartstrings tightened, but upont seeing the name on the screen, she heaved a sigh of relief before answering, “Hello!”
“Are you still up?” Like the sound of nature, Richard’s deep and magnetic voice washed away Dexter’s slanderous words earlier.
“Yeah! I’m not asleep yet. Oh, I spoke with Annie.”
“Are you okay?” he inquired with his tense and worried voice.
“I’m perfectly fine. Annie not only blessed us, but she also helped us tell a good lie.” Following that, she told Richard what Annie had said and he was so thankful to Annie as well; the last thing he wanted was to see Angela hurt.
After their time in the base where she was keeping her distance from him, he already had a taste of how awful it was to stay away from her. Annie, on the other. hand, was a good girl, so he understood why Angela avoided him at the time.
She did not want to cause Annie any harm as well.
“Are you free tomorrow? I need you to come along with me for something.” In
spite of what happened earlier, she still wished to be accompanied by him and save her parents some worry.
With Richard around, she would feel more at ease.
“Sure. What is it?”
“I’ll keep it a secret for the time being, but do pick me up at noon tomorrow!”
Angela remained silent out of fear of jeopardizing Dexter’s life as a result of her rash action. It would be a shame if he died, but she was hesitant to smear Dexter’s filthy blood on Richard’s fist.
“Are you hiding something from me?” Richard asked from the other end of the line.
“Nothing. It’s just a small matter; I’ll tell you next time,’ she said as she gently nudged him.
“Alright, but only if you call me ‘honey.” The man suddenly made a request.
Angela’s cheeks were flushed as she had never uttered those words to any men before. “Do I have to?” she asked shyly.
“Yes. I’d like to hear it.”
“Ho-Honey…” she blurted out bluntly.
“Sweetheart,” he responded with a smile.
“It’s so cringey,” Angela expressed while covering her face. Having said that, she made the unexpected decision to get back to him.
