Chapter 983
As Angela watched the four tall figures leave, she had a feeling that she might never see them again. Her eyes
reddened, and her nose twinged as sadness welled up within her.
Noticing her reddened eyes, Daphne couldn‘t help but put her arm around her in an attempt to comfort her. “Look
at our daughter. She‘s so reluctant to part with them, isn‘t she?”
But who knew what sort of mixed feelings she was having at this very moment? She was no longer the person she
had once been two months ago. Over the past two months, she had uncontrollably fallen in love with a man while
trying to forget him with all her might. She looked alright on the outside, but her heart was already broken to
pieces.
“Let‘s go!” Gilbert said to Daphne and Angela.
Angela let go of Daphne‘s hand and hurriedly ran toward the door from which Willy and the others disappeared.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she stepped out through the door, she saw an army green SUV that had just started up and left. She followed
the SUV with her gaze until it disappeared on the other end of the overpass. She pursed her lips while holding back
her tears.
At this moment, it was as if these men had never appeared in her world. They weren‘t ordinary people in the first
place, and their job was also totally different from that of ordinary people. They were like a bunch of unknown
heroes who would rush to wherever they were needed. When their mission was complete, they‘d disappear without
a trace.
Suddenly, it occurred to Angela that she didn‘t even have the phone number of any of them. All she knew about
them was their names, and all she had was the memory of her living with them.
Daphne caught up to her curiously. “Angela, what are you looking at?”
“Nothing. Let‘s go home.” Angela shook her head before walking toward an inconspicuously black Bentley nearby.
She sat in the car while looking out the car window at the bustling downtown area. Having stayed for two months in
the mountains with no phone reception, she fell into a trance–like state upon her return to the bustling metropolis.
Just then, Daphne asked in vexation, “Did you break up with Dexter? He returned all the money I‘d given to him.
Well, I‘d say it‘s sensible of him to do that. Otherwise, I won‘t let him off so easily.”
Angela nodded. “Let‘s not mention this guy from now on. I have nothing to do with him anymore.”
“Oh, right, Angela, I told you that you deserve a better man. Don‘t worry, I have some nice bachelors around me.
I‘ll choose a good guy for you,” Daphne said in an attempt to comfort her.
“Mom, I don‘t feel like dating anyone for now. I just want to rest for a couple of days.”
Daphne suggested, “If you don‘t feel like dating anyone, then why don‘t you come to my office? It‘s time for you to
try to take over my position.” She had been suffering
from migraines since her previous car accident. Therefore, she planned to step down from her position and let her
daughter learn how to run the company.
The Meyers Residence had taken on an entirely new look. A variety of flowers and plants were grown again in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmonce excavated garden; even the security system had been replaced by a top–level one. Sitting in the car, Angela
suddenly saw through the car window that someone was running happily toward the car.
Angela‘s pupils shrank slightly. It was Annie.
When Angela opened the car door, Annie trotted over and took her hand excitedly. “You‘re back at last, Angela. You
scared me to death.” She had her care for Angela written all over her face.
Inwardly, Angela was overcome with shame and self–reproach. Seeing how naive and kind–hearted Annie was, she
felt she had made a huge mistake. She was glad that she had learned of Annie‘s engagement to Richard in
advance. Otherwise, how hurt Annie would be if she were to talk about him when she came back and tell the
former about what had happened at the base? “Annie, thank you for caring about me,” she thanked with a sigh.
“It‘s lucky that all the dangers are gone. From now on, we can go shopping and chat over coffee again with peace
of mind,” Annie said happily.
Just then, Daphne said, “Angela, hurry and take a shower. Then we‘ll take a look at the presents that I‘ve prepared
for you.”
Angela knew without thinking that Daphne must‘ve bought a lot of designer clothes and handbags for her. However,
she was no longer interested in these things now.
