Chapter 990 “Alright. I will call Phillip and arrange to meet as soon as possible.” Joshua informed Jennifer
Angela noticed Annie‘s eyes widening, and her cheek flushed as she glanced over at her. Angela let out a heavy
sigh of bitterness and felt sorry for her. Just like a bystander, she saw Annie‘s feelings for Richard grow despite his
indifference to her. She felt even worse because she couldn‘t do anything to help Annie.
She had every intention of letting her grandpa, aunt, uncle, and Annie know that Richard had decided to call off the
engagement. However, she lacked the courage to do so and could only observe as they enthusiastically discussed
Annie‘s wedding preparations. She knew they‘d be disappointed when the time came.
Angela left the room with a heavy heart, terrified that Richard would suddenly appear and announce his intention to
break off the engagement in front of her family. Fortunately, she didn‘t need to worry because that man didn‘t
show up, and everyone got into their cars. She sat in the car with her parents, filled with thoughts.

her. She noticed that her daughter had changed, and it seemed as if she had suddenly matured and gained a sense
of stability.
“I‘m fine,” Angela replied with a wry smile.
“Perhaps she is still afraid. She‘ll be fine once she takes some more time to rest at home,” Gilbert added.
“Yes, I still have some fears, so I probably just need to get some rest.” Angela agreed with her dad that she didn‘t
want her mom to worry.
“Thankfully, it‘s all in the past. After going through an experience like that, your dad and I have decided that we do
not want anything else. We can only wish you happiness and safety.” Daphne gave her a tender glance. The once–
dominant mother had become patient and understanding toward her daughter.
“Yeah, the most important thing is that our family is safe and sound.” She finally comprehended Daphne‘s meaning.
A part of her wanted to run away from home back then. But now she realized that there is no place like home.
When they got home, Angela collapsed on her soft bed worth forty thousand, and kept her eyes on the beautiful
ceiling. She switched on the room‘s ambient lighting, which immediately turned it into a welcoming and
sophisticated environment. Surprisingly, she began to miss the small bed at Richard‘s base. Despite the bed rigidity
and discomfort, it provided her with exceptional warmth.
She was exhausted from everything she‘d been through recently. In the past, she found that doing something as
simple as getting a cup of coffee or going shopping could instantly lift her spirits. On the other hand, it would
appear that the source of her happiness now was simply the thought of Richard. She then sighed heavily and
decided to take a shower, change into cozy pajamas, and drink a cup of warm milk downstairs to help her sleep.
It was already 10:00PM when Angela glanced at the clock. Her parents had both returned to their room and were
currently resting. She then took a shower and dried her waist–length hair with a blow dryer. Even though she could
not give her hair the proper care it needed in the base, it retained its gloss and smoothness. Since her delicate
facial skin was beginning to look dull, she gave it a little boost by applying a mask.

She lay down on the large leather couch with two eye masks on top of the sheet mask, and began her evening
skincare routine while listening to her favorite music. She couldn‘t help but feel drowsy as she listened to the music.
Suddenly, she was startled by what she thought was a sound coming from her bedroom door. She furrowed her
brow as she thought, Did I leave the window open? Is it because of the wind? As she had just put on her mask ten
minutes earlier, she ultimately decided to disregard it. It would take at least twenty minutes to remove the sheet
mask.
However, Angela was unaware that another person was in the room at the time. The man was standing with his
arms crossed next to her couch, staring at her contented expression. The high–quality carpet in her room muffled
the sounds of the man‘s feet, so she didn‘t notice another person had entered the room. Despite this, she had the
distinct impression that someone was watching her at this very moment, and she couldn‘t help but pull off her eye
mask instantly. The moment she did so, terror took hold of her, but just as she was about to scream...
