Chapter 933
Richard checked his wristwatch for the time and saw that it was eight-thirty. He murmured, “You should return to
your room and get some rest.”
Angela crossed her arms in front of her and made it clear that she was not going anywhere. “I’m not sleepy yet.”
He glanced at her with a slightly resigned expression. He realized he couldn’t talk sense into this woman when she
was being stubborn.
“Are you being pursued by another girl?” She was tenacious in her refusal to change the subject.
However, Richard was hesitant to respond to her question. Furthermore, he didn’t want her to know that the girl in
question was her cousin, Annie. Nonetheless, he was adamant about brcaking off the engagement. He wasn’t
worricd that what he did might hurt his grandpa’s reputation and planned to go through with what he had decided.
After all, he didn’t want to jeopardize Annie’s future. He had never thought about his future with the girl in front of
him because he had no intention of marrying in this life.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAngela realized that he had not responded to her question since the start, and she felt quite dejected. She
continued to take sips from his mug of tea, but suddenly, she choked on it.
*Cough… Cough…” She clutched her chest in discomfort as she coughed hard. The choking sensation she felt was
very uncomfortable for her.
At that moment, she felt a large hand gently pat her on the back, and she finally managed to catch her breath. Her
face was flushed from all the coughing, and she felt Richard’s hand touch her forehead at that moment. She was
quite angry, so she smacked his hand aside abruptly.
“I don’t need you to show any concern, Captain Lloyd.” She angrily turned her back on him.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Angela turned her back on him, clearly expressing her displeasure.
She suddenly heard him sigh, and he explained in a low voice, “The person who sent me the text message is the girl
my Grandpa is trying to set me up with, but I have no feelings for her.”
Angela turned her head back to him, her eyes widening in astonishment. “Do you have a fiancée?”
“She’s just a girl I met once,” Richard emphasized.
Angela, however, felt a sharp pain in her chest because, in his grandpa’s eyes, that girl was already his fiancée,
even though they had only met once.
“Are you going to marry her?” She couldn’t stop the jealousy that welled up within her.
“No.” He shook his head with a determined look in his eyes.
“So, what’s your plan?” Angela seemed to be intent on pursuing the topic to get an answer.
Richard didn’t look the least bit annoyed. He gave her a solemn look before responding. “Once
I’ve completed my mission to protect you, I’ll speak with Grandpa about breaking off the engagement. I will
personally apologize to the girl’s family.”
‘Aren’t you worried about hurting the girl’s feelings?” She sighed and felt sympathy for his fiancee.
He remained silent for a few seconds. Angela has no idea that her cousin Annie is the girl she’s referring
1.
“Stop being upset because I can handle my own problems perfectly.” Richard no longer wanted to talk about this
matter. He was willing to explain things to keep her from overthinking and becoming upset.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe came to her senses and realized how easily her jealousy could be triggered. She blushed at that moment.
“Alright, I’ll stop being upset.”
There was a knock on Richard’s door, and Angela quickly inquired, “Is that Trevor and the others?”
He went to the door to answer the knock; just as he had only pushed it open halfway. Angela heard Ariel’s voice
coming from the outside. Ariel said, “Hi, Captain Lloyd. I was wondering if I could use your shower if it’s okay with
you.”
Her voice was sickly sweet and flirtatious; it was definitely a seductive tone.
Angela’s lovely eyes dilated as she wondered, What?! Is Ariel planning on taking a shower in Richard’s bathroom?
She soon realized that there was just a public bathhouse available. Ariel must have inquired around and discovered
that Angela was taking her shower in Richard’s room, which was why she also wanted to use it. She was possessive
and didn’t want any other woman to enter Richard’s room but her.
“No, it would be inconvenient” Richard said dismissively.
Captain Lloyd, I heard Miss Meyers showers liere as well. Please allow me to utilize it. You let her use your
bathroom, so please let me as well. After all, I’m a girl, and using the public bathhouse would be dangerous.”
