Daphne always thought that her daughter studied too much and had ruined her own brain. She could have chosen a better boyfriend for herself, but she ended up choosing a man with an ordinary background but extraordinary means.
If it were not because she was more cunning, the rest of her daughter’s life would have been ruined just like that.
Angela didn’t want to face her mother anymore. She stood up and walked in the direction of the stairs, wanting to go back to her room.
At this moment, Daphne received a call from her husband. “Hello?”
“How’s our daughter?”
“She still doesn’t want to break up with Dexter. Such a silly girl,” she said worriedly.
“I received news that someone might be having their eyes on us. Be careful, you two. Meanwhile, I’ve arranged a bodyguard to protect Angela for her own
safety. He’ll be there tomorrow morning.”
Daphna wasn’t shocked to hear such a thing since she had been through a lot too. Now that her daughter was not listening to her, she needed to arrange a bodyguard for her. Otherwise, her daughter would be in danger if she left the house after throwing tantrums.
“Okay! Is the bodyguard reliable?”
“Very reliable. Mr. Lloyd introduced him to me.” When Daphne heard that, she felt relieved too. “Okay, you should take care of your own safety too. It’s really stormy these days.”
In the room on the third floor, Angela was standing in front of the window, looking at the lights far away. Her mind was filled with her lonely life when she was overseas during those days, and that was when Dexter came into her world. He had been by her side throughout her lonely days without her parents beside her, and it was a happy period in her life.
Since she was young, her mother had spent all her time in the office, and her father had spent all his time at work, Despite her wealth, she had poor mental
and emotional health. Her parents thought that they had given her the best life when they had actually removed all the comfort for her.
However, three days ago, Dexter told her
that he was going to be engaged and that he had fallen in love with another woman. She saw with her own eyes when he kneeled on one knee and proposed to that woman with a bouquet of flowers in his hands.
At this thought, Angela held back her tears and took her phone to look at the text. She continued to send him another message that read, ‘Dexter, I can give up on everything to be with you. Can you please come back to me?’
However, when she sent out the text, it was totally ignored; there was no reply at all.
Her phone then started ringing. She took up her phone and saw that it was her cousin.
“Hello, Ann,”
“I have some good news for you, Angela. I’m getting engaged.”
“What?” Angela said in shock. She’s getting engaged?
“It’s so sudden, right? Do you know what the man I’m engaged to looks like? Oh, my God! He’s so handsome. In fact, he’s the most handsome man I’ve ever seen in my life. Grandpa arranged the engagement for me, but I’m so satisfied with it.” It was Annie Meyers’ voice on the other side of the phone.
Hearing that, Angela was still worried. “Have you seen him before?”
“I’ve only seen his photo, but I’m already falling for him. I’ve heard that he has come back here already, so our family will be engaged with his family tomorrow night. Are you free to come, Angela?”
