“Pfft!” Angela spat her tea out onto the floor, drawing everyone’s baffled gaze. She covered her mouth
as she coughed. “I choked on the tea.”
“What’s the hurry? No one’s snatching it from you,” Daphne commented.
“Daphne, I think you’re right. I’d rather see someone doting on Ann and stay by her side. She is timid
and tends to depend on others. Richard is not her Mr. Right.” Jennifer came to terms with the outcome.
“That’s right. Angela should find someone like that too. It’s easy to have problems when the man is
rarely present round the clock,” Daphne added.
“True. So, it’s a good thing that the engagement is called off. Though that Richard guy has the looks
and capability, we’re not lucky enough to be his family. Let’s just forget it. We’ll find someone reliable
for Ann.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah, so put your worries at rest. Ann is still young and there’s no need to rush. The fact that Richard
calls off the engagement himself shows that he doesn’t want to string Ann along.
He’s a mature one. The last time I met him, he stands out in every way, but his attitude is too cold. He
doesn’t seem like a caring and loving person.”
Speechless, Angela gazed at her mother as she wished for her to stop. Though she was clueless at the
moment, she was afraid that her mother had to take back her words one day.
Seeing how her family was not let down by the issue, Annie was in a good mood as she muttered, “I
won’t marry anyone for now. I wanna go on a trip to loosen up myself.”
Following that, the conversation revolved around how men should pay more attention to either the
family or career under Daphne and Jennifer’s lead.
Angela left her seat unobtrusively to take some fresh air in the garden. Lifting her head, she gazed at
the starry sky, which reminded her of the time Richard accompanied her to watch the stars at the base.
On that very night, not only did she watch the starry sky, she was also deeply enchanted by the man.
However, could she have that kind of life? Could she even rewind the time?
It’s awful of me to think about this when Annie’s engagement has just been called off.
As an afterthought, she shook her head to shrug off those notions.
When she returned home, she sat in her room and stared out of the balcony in a daze. Will he come
again?
At that moment, her phone binged and it made her heart flutter. She quickly grabbed it as she had a
hunch that it was Richard-it really was him.
I’m at the doorstep. Can we meet?’
Her heart was racing and she sprang to her feet to run to the balcony at which she could see a car

He’s really here! Should I go?
However, before she found the answer to her dilemma, her phone rang. She sighed and answered the
call.
“Come down.” The man’s low voice resounded.
“It’s late. I should-”
“Then, I’ll come to you,” he interrupted. “No! You can’t!” A surprised Angela stopped him.
“It’s up to you.” He coaxed her into making a decision.
She was rendered speechless as she wondered. Since when do I always listen to him?
“Just go. I’m tired today. I don’t wanna see you.” Still, her guilty conscience was pricked by the fact that
Annie’s engagement was just called off. It would be tactless to see him right now.
“You have five minutes,” said the man before hanging up the phone. Apparently, there was no room for
discussion in this.
