With his assurance, she carefully placed the hatchling on his palm; she saw him hold the bird and walk toward the
tree pole. Seeing that he was about to climbi the tree, she hurriedly said, “Be careful.”
She had to admit that his tree climbing skill was quite good; in a blink of an eye. he had already put the bird back to
its nest, and from that position, he jumped to the ground.
Angela was dumbfounded. Is he a monkey?
“Let’s go back!” Richard glanced at her and walked along the path that would lead them back home. It was only
then did she realize the reason he was angry just now; he was worried about her safety and took his anger out on
the hatchling; instead, she blamed him for being cruel.

halted his steps and turned around, causing her to bump into him.
Just as she was about to take a step back, his arm wrapped around her waist domineeringly. She raised her head,
and her eyes met the gaze of another pair of eyes that were as deep as night. She could almost see the glittering
light at the bottom of his eyes.
“Promise me that you won’t risk your life so easily next time,” he commanded in a deep voice, serious and firm.
It was the first time Angela had received such a demand that it imprinted onto her soul. She nodded and said, “I
promise.”
“Your life is very important,” said Richard, emphasizing once again.
It felt like he was confessing to her. As she
bit her lips, the woman looked down and
asked, “Is my life that important to you?”
His voice reverberated above her as he said with conviction, “Yes.”
Her heart pounded when she heard that, so Angela threw herself into his embrace and hugged him. “Alright, I will
make sure to be safe and not let you worry ever again.”
Surprised, he paused for a few seconds but quickly looked down at the girl in his arms and gently caressed her
head. His dark eyes were filled with conflicting thoughts of restraint, affection, and anticipation.
Angela still had her head down. If she had raised her head, she would have seen the emotions in his eyes. Right at
that moment, footsteps were heard behind them and she left his embrace to keep her distance.
He pulled a face at her withdrawal and stared ahead as his two teammates walked in. When they rounded the
corner, they were scared upon seeing Richard and Angela standing there. After noticing the glower on Richard’s

each other as they scrambled to leave.
Angela could not hold it in and laughed out loud. It seemed like they were more awkward than she was.
She then grabbed onto the hand of the man beside her. “Let’s head back.”
Richard let her lead the way back. She walked happily in front of him as if she had conquered a mad lion and felt
ant odd sense of accomplishment.
However, Angela let go of him when they reached the entrance of the base. She did not want to let the others know
they were dating and become the center of attention, after all.
“You’re back, Captain Lloyd!” Ariel wore a red bodycon dress and looked like a red rose, making her look especially
eye catching.
It was obvious she was trying to get Richard’s attention. When Angela saw that, she became angry and tried to
grab the man’s attention as well.
