Chapter 993

Annie admired and worshiped Richard from the bottom of her heart since he had a significant presence that drew

admiration from those around him. She went to see him alone, her breathing hastened with her hands clasped

tightly. “Richard.” She greeted the man before taking a seat in front of him.

Breaking away from his thoughts, he gazed at her, who pursed her lips and turned her eyes away since she didn‘t

dare to look at him. “You‘ve come.” He returned her greeting while handing her the menu. “Let‘s order.”

“You do it. I‘m not particular about my food,” Annie replied shyly.

Richard beckoned the waiter and, after considerable thought, chose four dishes. After placing his order, he poured

a cup of tea for her.

She leaped to her feet. “I can do it on my own.”

“Ms. Annie, I have something personal to say to you,” he said as courteously as he could.

“Go ahead.” Annie wanted to hear what he had to say as she blinked expectantly at him.

“I want to cancel our engagement,” Richard remarked, his gaze fixed on her.

The cup held by Annie dropped to the table with a loud crash. Fortunately, it only caused a tiny spillage, and the cup

remained intact. She trembled, staring at the table because she had not expected him to break off their

engagement after inviting her out. “Why?” She felt an incredible amount of grief, and despair overcame her.

“I‘m sorry. I have someone else I like.” Richard frowned. He didn‘t know how to tell her politely, so she was bound to

be hurt.

“But why didn‘t you tell me at the dinner party last time? Perhaps you should have said that you already have

someone in your heart at that time. I wouldn‘t have...” Annie made a sorrowful expression with her lips puckered.

She had experienced a bitter unrequited love in just three months. Ultimately, their engagement was canceled,

which was hard for her to accept.

Things were unpredictable, as usual. His love life was still empty at the last dinner party. However, after barely

three months, a woman had wholly captured his heart. “I‘m sorry.” He apologized to her.

She raised her head, her eyes reddening, and asked, “What type of woman is she? Is she more talented than I am?

Is she better than me?” She couldn‘t admit she wasn‘t as good as the lady Richard adored. Annie also considered

herself a good choice as she

was a confident and cheerful woman.

He said hushedly, “She‘s not a woman with many talents, but in my heart, no one can replace her.”

Annie reached for the tissues next to her and dabbed her eyes with them as tears slid down her cheek. The waiter

arrived and served their food. Richard watched her body tremble without touching the food and sobbing as he

attempted to comfort her. “I. believe you will meet a man who is better than me.”

She felt sad, but the thought that the happiness and anticipation of her family members over the marriage would

be shattered increased her misery. However, she was not someone who clung to the past. Despite her struggle to

accept this fact, she maintained her manners. She inhaled deeply, raised her head, and looked at the man across

her. “Mr. Lloyd, I know in my heart that I am not good enough for you, as you are an amazing person. I wish you...

I‘m sorry... Enjoy your meal.” She then took her bag and left the restaurant while wiping her tears. What she

needed right now was a place to cry uncontrollably.

Annie left the restaurant and went to a nearby café. While still crying, she quickly grabbed her phone and called

Angela.

Angela was eating lunch with her mom in the office cafeteria when her phone rang. Looking at her phone, her

heart skipped a beat as she saw Annie had called. She answered the phone at once. “Hello, Annie?” Annie‘s rapid

cries, rather than her voice, greeted her on the other end of the line as if she were too distraught to talk at the

moment.
