“But I do,” confessed the man suddenly, “Why?” she questioned back in embarrassment.
“What do you think?” He countered.
“Well, I don’t know!” She did not answer on purpose, but it was hilarious to her by how the conversation
was revolving around such childish questions.
“I’m going to shower.” As soon as he blurted those words, the rustling sound of clothes could be heard
from the other side of the line.
“Are you taking your clothes off?” Angela could not help voicing out her curiosity.
Richard hummed sexily before asking,
“Wanna see?”
“See what?” She could not understand.
“We can make a video call, so you can look at my body. He offered without any charges.
Her breathing became slightly heavier. “Richard Llyod, cut it out.”
Where did his cold attitude and composure go?

In actuality, Angela could imagine his body vividly without taking a look at it. It was not like she had
never sneaked a few
peaks in the base back then.
“Alright. Sleep early. Good night.” She then terminated the call before sprawling on the bed. Her
stomach churned with
mixed feelings as she was feeling sorry toward Annie. Although the engagement had been called off,
she could not get over it just yet.
When the morning came, Angela woke up and picked a stylish yet feminine coat to go to the company
with Daphne.
Today, Daphne would announce the news of Angela taking over her position in the shareholder
meeting. In hindsight, she replaced her usual demeanor with solemnity.
During the meeting, everyone treated her politely while masking their doubts in their gazes. After all,
she was too young in their eyes.
The billion-worth company was bestowed to a twenty-five-year-old woman; a sheer blunder in a
significant decision-making would incur a massive loss.
Even so, their notions did not go unnoticed by Angela. Despite the pressure, she was full of confidence;
despite her tender age, she had more time to learn and improve.
When the meeting was coming to an end, she took a glance at the time; it was 11:18AM. She looked at
Daphne, who was still speaking, and was already on tenterhooks as she looked forward to the lunch
date with Richard.
“Okay. Angela, please give us a word or two.” Daphne cast her gaze onto Angela.
She rose to her feet and flashed a smile at the shareholders who were sitting along the long table. “I’m
very pleased to be here and it is my honor to be able to take over my mother’s position. For the
following days, I hope you can believe in me, support me, and acknowledge me. Thank you.”

Daphne stared at her daughter with contentment. She was aware of the doubtful attitude of many
shareholders toward Angela’s takeover, but she would definitely help her from behind the scenes in
order to consolidate Angela’s position.
“That marks the end of today’s meeting. You may disperse.”
Angela let out a silent sigh of relief. When she rose from her seat, Daphne called her, “Angela, let’s
have lunch together somewhere else.”
“But, I have plans with my friend.”
“Nevermind, then.” Daphne nodded approvingly, for her daughter was expanding her social circles.
Angela exited the entrance to see a black SUV parked at the opposite street. Akin to a belligerent wild
beast, the huge and black vehicle was as formidable as its owner.
She alternated her gaze from left to right before approaching the passenger seat gingerly to enter the
car.
The man, who was on the driver seat, watched every single one of her expressions and amusement
was evident in his eyes. Her course of actions appeared adorable to him.
