“Nope, but he definitely crossed the line because he was still your boyfriend at that time. I didn’t dare to
tell you about it,” recounted Annie.
Angela took a deep breath. “He’s going to get it from me if I see him again.”
“Angela, you deserve someone better. You’re prettier and more capable than I am. You’re going to take
over the company in the future as the charismatic president.” Annie laid out her genuine thoughts.
Angela smiled lightly. “I am going to take my mother’s place.”
“For real! That’s awesome!” Annie gave Angela a thumbs up.
Angela stared at her sister. Due to the sincere bond they mutually shared, never once had she thought
of putting Annie in harm’s way. That was why she forsaked every chance she had by backing off when
it came to her relationship with Richard.
After completing his mission, Richard had made up his mind to keep his grandfather company for a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhile at Lloyd Residence. There was a week for him to spend time with his family before undertaking
his next mission.
At 12.00PM, Phillip was feeding the fish at the yard when Richard returned home. He walked toward
Phillip’s back and sprinkled the flakes into the pond while saying, “Grandpa, there’s something I gotta
inform you about.”
“Go ahead.”
“I’ve called off the engagement with Annie.”
Phillip turned to look at him in confusion. “Why didn’t you discuss with me first?”
“There’s no need for that. I have someone I like.” Richard’s tone was firm. The old man was on the
brink of flipping
out, but his attention was diverted to Richard’s confession. “Oh? Who is it?”
“Not now. I’ll tell you some other day.”
“Don’t you dare pull a trick on me. I won’t let you off if it’s a lie.”
“Grandpa, please inform Meyers Family about it in my stead. I will send my apology to them.”
Needless to say. Phillip would not permit Richard to do that since he was the one forcing the
engagement on him in the first place. If there had to be someone to apologize for it, Phillip should be
the one doing it. He then patted Richard’s shoulder. ‘A week later, bring over the girl you like. I would
like to have a meal with her.”
Richard took a few seconds to ponder over it. “Okay, I’ll do my best to persuade her.”
That night, everyone was notified to have dinner at Meyers Residence. Phillip had phoned Joshua to
apologize about the called-off engagement. Considering that it was a big family event, prudent notice
was necessary.
Angela and Annie headed straight to Meyers Residence from the mall in the city center and their
parents arrived soon. after they did. Dinner was served as usual on the dining table in which every
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmember of the family was present..
“Ann, don’t take it personally and don’t blame the Lloyd Family,” Joshua comforted Annie before turning
to face his youngest son and daughter-in-law. “You too. Don’t be too upset about it. It’ll do no good to
both families.”
“Relax, Dad. We’re chill.” Matthew eased his father’s worries.
“Yeah. Ann is just down on her luck.” As the mother, Jennifer was a little resentful about the outcome
as she had been looking forward to her daughter’s marriage.
Hearing that, Daphne piped out as her sister-in-law, “Jennifer, look at the bright side. Ann is still young
and pretty. She’ll find herself a good match sooner or later.
Think about it-no matter how outstanding of a person Richard is, he has to be away from home often
for his missions. Ann might live a widow-like life after marrying him. She’s better off being single.”
