His first sentence made Angela’s heart tremble.
“What do you mean by that? We haven’t even been on a proper date before. What is there to break up?” At that point, her emotions shot through the roof.
“Secondly, I will call off the engagement,” Richard continued speaking.
Angela’s face turned pale as she looked at him. At this moment, she wished she could die on the spot.
“You…” Suddenly, her whole body swayed as if she was going to faint.
But before her body landed on the ground, she was held by a pair of strong arms. The next moment, she was back in Richard’s warm embrace. Out of instinct, she immediately pushed him away. She would rather hold on to the cold stone beside her as support than be hugged by him.
The chilly wind messed up her long hair and spread it all over her face. Her face was overly pale compared to the darkness
of her hair. It was as if she was so fragile that the wind could sweep her away.
“Let’s talk inside. It’s cold out here.” Richard sighed.
“Leave by yourself then! I want to stay here a little longer,” Angela replied as she didn’t want to walk alongside him.
“Angela, who told you about this matter?” Richard squinted his eyes and asked.
“It was Ariel. She overheard the conversation between you and your grandpa when you were on the phone. You were planning on being unmarried for the rest of your life, is that so?”
she raised her head and confronted him. Recalling the moment when he had a phone call at the parterre, Richard wasn’t too happy about it. He indeed sensed that someone was behind him, but he did not expect that it was Ariel. He ignored the presence as he thought it was someone from the base.
“What else did she say?’ Richard trusted that Ariel must have said something else to Angela, as both girls had always been at each other’s throats. Once Ariel got hold of this matter, she would surely use it against Angela.
“It doesn’t matter anymore if she had said any other things. The most important. part is that we are over. I’m sorry, Richard. 1 was a sc*mbag for seducing you. I’m sorry that I offended you by not knowing any better.” Angela lowered her head as she reflected on herself, thinking. she had committed the crime of the year.
But from Richard’s perspective, it was heartbreaking to see her in this state. Never did he expect that she would draw. back this much after finding out about this matter. Furthermore, she even blamed herself for the whole thing and degraded her own morale.
Suppressing the urge to hold her, Richard.
gripped his knuckles as his face twitched slightly, watching her slim figure wavering because of the wind..
At that moment, the afternoon sky became gloomy, like it was going to rain anytime soon.
As they were still at a stand-off, it started to rain eventually. The rain droplets made a heavy dripping sound as they hit the stones.
“Let’s go back,” Richard said in a low voice. He was not going to let her stay here any longer.
It was also frustrating for Angela that even the weather was picking on her. Just as she was going to vent her frustration by letting herself soak in the rain, a pair of arms locked themselves by her waist. Richard tucked her hair back to reveal her petite face and kissed her cold lips with a mix of and dominance.
In the midst of the rain, he kissed her.
The kiss made Angela dumbstruck as she was mind blown by his action. His kiss was more aggressive than the last time. Out of embarrassment, she tried to push him away but was only being pulled closer by Richard until she had no place to hide.
After some time, Richard finally let go of her. The rain made his dark eyes even darker while gulping sounds came from his throat, and even his breath was uneven.
