She just wanted a win against Angela; whether she could be Richard’s girlfriend was never part of the equation. As she was locked up here, her life was boring. and it was about time to find something interesting to do.
Ten minutes later, Angela was eating a bowl of fragrant noodles-it was all thanks to Richard’s privilege that the cook took the trouble to make her an extra bowl of noodles at 9.00PM. Despite that, Angela was still very grateful to the cook.
“Do you want some?” she asked Richard.. who was sitting on the couch.
“No, thanks. He wasn’t hungry.
The sole reason why she was starving was because of him-Ariel was sitting next to him previously, causing her misunderstanding to deepen so much that she had lost her appetite for dinner.
and couldn’t stomach anything. After Angela was done with her meal, she began to clean up the dishes, but he stopped her from doing that. Instead, he checked the time on his watch and thought it was time for her to go to rest.
She looked around the place with her beautiful eyes and subsequently fixed them at his neat grey bed; she looked as if she was pondering something. Regardless, Richard saw right through her and refused directly, “You can’t occupy my bed.”
Angela pouted when she heard his refusal. “What a petty man.” This woman knows nothing about pettiness, he thought. If she really slept with him on the same bed, he would have trouble falling asleep the whole night!
He noticed earlier that she had a low fever, so he stepped forward and put his palm on her forehead. Fortunately, her temperature was normal again.
“Sleep in your room. Remember to cover yourself with the quilt at night,” he reminded her patiently. She nodded and returned to her room obediently. She was pleased tonight-his attitude toward her changed again, and finally, she became his girlfriend. The moment she had that thought, she immediately slapped her
own head. Argh, no, Angela! Before he cancels his engagement with his fiancée, you will only be his friend.
Angela suddenly felt sorry for the fiancée; even if it was the elders who arranged the engagement, no matter what, that girl was still Richard’s fiancée.
She could not stop wondering what kind of girl the fiancée was, but seeing her actively texting him, she must have fallen in love with him! Her mind slipped into a tangle of emotions yet again when she thought of that.
Little did she know that the girl she felt sorry about was actually her cousin, Annie, who happily informed Angela that she was getting engaged some time ago.
That night, Richard still had difficulty. falling asleep; his mind was full of Angela’s teary face on the sports field, her voice, and her laughter..
He received a call from Arthur early in the morning. Arthur told Richard that he and his new wife, Sophia, were still traveling around the world, so the wedding that was initially scheduled to be held would be postponed for another
three months. However, Richard happened to be on a mission now, so the fact that they delayed the wedding did not affect him the slightest.
Meanwhile, in the Presgrave Group’s general office in Averna, Anastasia, who had been going through early pregnancy symptoms, finally felt a little better.
She had been pregnant with her second child for four months and was pleased to know that the child was very healthy. She and her husband, Elliot, had been eagerly looking forward to the birth of their daughter.
