Chapter 904
Angela was stunned for a few seconds when Richard instantly kept away his phone like that: were the texts so
important that she couldn‘t even steal a glance at them?
“Let‘s go back!” He stood up and said.
“Was that a girl that texted you?” She raised her head and inquired.
Naturally, he did not need to answer her. Besides, he would call off his engagement with Annie once he returned.
So, there was no need for Angela to know about it.
“Since you aren‘t denying it, then it must be true! It seems like there are quite a few girls that like you!” Angela
exclaimed as she stood up, swinging the torch around and shining it into Richard‘s eyes. He reached out his hand
and blocked it before saying, “Be careful when you walk.”
She actually did that on purpose because she felt a little uncomfortable that other women were texting him. He was
looking at the messages so seriously, and when she glanced at it just now, she noticed it was a long text. That
woman might be confessing to him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd Angela‘s guess was correct; Annie did send a long love–sick text to Richard!
Angela was strolling ahead as she was in no rush to go back. On the other hand, Richard was frowning as he trailed
behind her. A woman‘s heart was like glass; he did not know how he upset her.
As she was walking, she suddenly noticed a big black shadow on the treetops in front of her and scared her out of
her wits. She immediately turned around and hugged the man behind her tightly. “T–There‘s a ghost.”
When he shone his torch in that direction, he saw that it was just a frightened monkey. Nevertheless, Angela still
hugged him tightly, wishing she could hang herself on him.
“It‘s just a monkey,” Richard lowered his voice and assured her.
At this moment, she also heard the monkey‘s cries; that noise in the dark also frightened her. Although she quickly
let go of him, she did not dare to go far. Instead, she held onto his hand. “I‘m scared. Let‘s hold hands and walk.”
She didn‘t care whether he was agreeable to her arrangement or not. Nonetheless, she felt that there was still too
big of a gap between them when they held hands, so she grabbed his arm instead, her whole body leaning onto
his.
Richard let out a sigh when he noticed that she was petrified. Therefore, he pulled away and offered, “I‘ll carry you
down.”
“Really?” Her eyes immediately lit up since that was what she really wanted.
He didn‘t answer with words and merely squatted down in front of her as she made herself comfortable by lying on
his back. She felt safe being carried down as she laid onto his broad back
easy task to carry her down the mountain, but Richard didn‘t falter the whole time.
Although she enjoyed how he treated her, an envious thought grew in her. She thought that he would only carry
one woman on his back in the future and no one else.
“Richard Lloyd, you didn‘t answer my question!” i
“What question?” Richard cocked his head slightly.
“If another female target who needs your protection suddenly shows up, and if she is young and beautiful, will you
treat her like how you‘re treating me?” Angela went to great lengths to come up with this hypothetical situation.
He continued to ignore her and walked down the hill, step by step. Angela, who was on his back, stared at him with
some resentment. “Is it that hard to answer this question?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“There‘s no need to answer such a meaningless question,” he replied faintly.
“It might not mean anything to you, but it does to me,” she blurted out.
“What does it mean to you?” He questioned quietly.
She was rendered speechless by his blunt response. After all, she had never been in a situation where she would
have to confess to a guy first. So, she vaguely said, “You need to answer me first. Would you treat other girls like
this as well? Once, you‘ve answered that, I‘ll give you yours.”
This way, she could hear what he had to say first. If he said yes, there was no need for her to answer him.
Unfortunately, Richard remained stubborn and continued to ignore her.

Angela laid her chin on his shoulder as she waited for a moment. When she saw that he was genuinely ignoring her,
she took advantage of the dark and that there was no one around to whisper in his ears, “Captain Lloyd, I actually
like you quite a bit. Do you like me?”
