Chapter 981
Richard spent the night being tormented by the warm, soft, and sweet–smelling body in his arms.
On the other hand, Angela was totally unaware of what had happened until the early morning sunlight shone
through the window. Today was a rare sunny day. Awakened by the kiss of the morning sun, she opened her eyes,
wanting to change her sleeping posture as her body was a little stiff. However, as soon as she turned over, she
immediately let out a gasp of fright. She and Richard were so close that their faces almost pressed against each
other. Startled, she nearly fell out of bed. She quickly sat up and looked at the man who was sleeping on his side
next to her.
The man then opened his eyes as well. His pupils were dark and deep, but his eyes were bloodshot, as if he had just
had a wakeful night.

Angela couldn‘t help but ask him with concern, “W–Why are your eyes so red?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What do you think?” Richard put his arms behind his head while closing his eyes in repose.
She was dumbfounded right away. What does this have to do with me? Blinking her eyes, she asked somewhat
morosely, “What did I do to you?”
At this moment, Richard still wanted to catch up on his sleep, but he found time to dart a sidelong glance at her.
“You kept moving in your sleep.”
Only then did Angela realize what had happened. Was he unable to sleep because I did something to him last night?
She only felt warm and comfortable in her sleep last night, but she had no memory of what she had done to him or
if she had touched his body. Even so, now that she thought about it, with the two of them sleeping with their bodies
pressed against each other, she‘d probably have touched what she wasn‘t supposed to touch by accident. “I-I didn‘t
mean it. You get some sleep. I‘m getting up,” she said while wanting to throw back the covers and get out of bed.
However, the man suddenly grabbed her arm and yanked her back under the blanket, holding her down with his
arm on her chest. “It‘s still early. Sleep with me for a while longer.”
Peeved, Angela stared down at the arm on her chest. She couldn‘t help but push him away, saying, “You‘re going
too far, Richard.”
“Not as far as you did last night,” the man ridiculed in a husky voice with a smirk.
Angela instantly went red in the face. Could I have touched what I‘m not supposed to touch last night? I don‘t have
such a fetish!
Richard let her rest her head on his arm while wrapping his other arm around her waist. “Don‘t move. Sleep with
me for another half an hour.”
Angela‘s body tensed up. She had no choice but to plead with him, saying, “Richard, could you let go of me? We
can‘t do this.”
However, the man next to her didn‘t answer her; all she could hear was the sound of him breathing somewhat
heavily.
Angela could only try to writhe herself free of his arms. However, as soon as she writhed, she suddenly felt
something on her waist. Consequently, she blushed up to her ears right away.
“Don‘t move about, and don‘t test my self–restraint,” the man warned in a husky voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAngela‘s eyes reddened with anger. How could he threaten me like this? She had been quite emotionally vulnerable
these days. At this moment, tears of anger streamed from the corners of her eyes. With her arms pinned to her
sides by the man, she had no choice but to close her eyes in silence while shedding tears of grievance.
Suddenly, the man beside her turned sideways and propped himself up with his elbow.
She opened her eyes to look into a pair of deep, fathomless eyes. Such a close distance made him unable to
conceal the emotions in his eyes. It was as if his eyes were ablaze with his love and tenderness. The look in his eyes
was tender and restrained, but it was also aggressive and overbearing.
On the other hand, the look in Angela‘s eyes was restrained, pained, and distressed.
As their eyes locked inches away from each other, Richard caressed her face with rough fingertips and wiped her
tears away. When he placed his hand on her red lips, she closed her eyes. Then, sensing his breath approaching,
she stubbornly turned her face away so that the man could only kiss her on the cheek.
The man was stunned for a few seconds as his eyes flickered. Finally, he let go of her, threw back the covers, and
sat up. He said in a hoarse voice, “Fine, i won‘t pesier you anymore.” He got out of bed and swiftly put on his long
trench coat. When he arrived at the door, he glanced back at the lady who sat up in bed. “I‘ll let them send you
back tomorrow.”
