She stared at the car, which had its headlights turned on, and bit her lips in frustration because of his
antics.
Nevertheless, she gave in as she did not wish him to climb over the window again. It was perilous.
After changing into something casual, she headed downstairs where Daphne was watching the
television in the living room. She lied, “Mom, a friend of mine is here to take me for a hangout. I’ll be
home soon.”
“Who? A guy or a girl?”
“It’s a girl.”
“Well, be careful, honey. You know it’s dangerous when it’s dark out there.”
“Got it. I’ll be back as early as possible.” Angela then pulled open the door and left.
She strode toward the black SUV when the window on the driver seat was unwound. The man’s
intense gaze landed upon her while he let out a faint smile.

Suddenly, he started the car engine and she frowned. “Where are you taking me?”
“For a walk. Let’s get some fresh air.” He turned the steering wheel and drove the car away, but she did
not thwart him as she looked out of the window in silence.
“How’s Annie doing?” Richard questioned concernedly.
“She’s doing fine. She’s going for a vacation soon,” replied Angela.
“When are you going to tell her about us?” he added.
“Let’s put that aside first.” She turned to take a glimpse of him with a flushed face.
He glanced at her as well. That was not an explicit answer, but it meant that there was still a chance for
them.
Silence filled the car; as though her thoughts were surging aloud in her mind, she turned her head to
zero in on Richard. The street lights shafted upon him and enhanced his engaging features. Despite
wearing only a black sweater, he could not hide the polished air around him.
Angela finally knew why he gave her such a sophisticated impression-it was due to the inherent
elegance that ran in his family and blood. She had done research on his mother, who looked gorgeous
and graceful in the pictures spread online. Furthermore, she discovered that Richard’s mother had a
husband.
“It’s said that your uncle is the vice president of the country. Is that true?”
He hummed in response without any detailed elaboration.
“Did your mother remarry?” She tried to keep her voice gentle while asking that very question.
She knew almost nothing of him. Besides him, her knowledge pertaining to his family and background
was close to nil.
Richard nodded. “When I was one year old, my father passed away and my mother remarried.”
Angela’s heart went out for him while she looked at him. She was born in a happy family and her
parents showered her with unreserved love. As she compared him to herself, her heart ached to know
his past.

“Sorry. I shouldn’t have asked.” She regretted in a worry that it might remind him of bad memories.
“You should ask to know me better before becoming my wife,” he said seriously.
Words failed her as she thought, Why am I suddenly becoming your wife? We aren’t even going out
yet!
“Cut it out.” She bit her lips and stared out of the window with cheeks tinged with red. Now that Annie
and his engagement was called off, the worries in Angela’s head dispelled, but she could not act
recklessly either.
“It’s just a matter of time before it happens.” Richard was certain as he took a glimpse of her with
confidence.
Meanwhile, she did not reciprocate to it because she did not know how to. At that moment, he parked
the car near a bustling park. “Let’s take a walk
Angela nodded and alighted from the car as well. Unlike the arctic mountains, it was quite warm in the
city. Although it was the beginning of the winter, the temperature was not that low and the ambience
lingered with remnant crumbs of late autumn.
