âWhat? Is she hurt?â âIâm not too sure, but she definitely looks wet from head to toe.â
The next second, Richard sprang up from his seat and opened the door, leaving the meeting room in a hurry. In the meantime, his subordinates were left wondering where he was going as they exchanged gazes with each other.
Angela went into Richardâs room with her clothes in her arms. She hurriedly turned. on the shower because she felt extremely cold as it was fall now.
Richard pushed the door to his room and heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom. He didnât have to ask to guess who was inside, so he exited the room and continued back in the direction of the conference room.
After Angela showered, she felt that her whole body was warm, and she simply sat in Richardâs room and read a book as if his room was hers.
At noon, she went to the dining hall. After she had prepared her meal, she sat down at the table where Trevor and the others.
were sitting. Richard also sat down right. across from Angela..
âMiss Angela, | heard that you fell into the water this morning. What happened?â
Trevor asked curiously.
âUgh, letâs not talk about it. | fell into the spring behind the mountain.â After Angela finished speaking, she glanced at the man sitting directly opposite her.
âHow did you fall? Did you slip?â
âNo, there was such a big fish in that spring. | wanted to catch it, but | slipped and fell instead. Boohoo!â Angela recounted the events with a depressed expression.
Jared almost burst into laughter from the side, but fortunately, he controlled it.
âSean, do you have time in the afternoon? Let's find a fishing net. We'll go and get that fish back, shall we?â Angela asked Sean.
Sean nodded almost without hesitation. âOkay! Let's do it.â
Seeing that he readily agreed, Angela smiled happily. âWell, itâs settled.â Trevor and Jared looked at each other. Sure enough, Angela was interested in Sean. At this moment, the man opposite Angela said, âMy subordinates donât have time to accompany you to fool around.â
âBoss, | do-â Before Sean finished speaking, he met a pair of seriously cold eyes, and his words were forced back into his throat.
Angela blinked. âI am only borrowing them for half an hour.â
âItâs not a matter of time; they canât lose their discipline, and they shouldn't spend their time on things outside of work.â Richardâs eyes were cold; he looked like he would not be easy to deal with.
The other three felt that there was something wrong with the bossâ emotions.
Angela couldnât help but choke, after which she had no choice but to turn to Sean. âSean, can you find me a fishing net after this? I'll go by myself.â
âNo problem. | remember there is one in the tool room.â Sean was very happy to help her.
âAngela, is it fine for you to go alone?â
âOf course, thereâs no problem! Donât underestimate me. | swear to bring that fish back to make soup.â Angela was determined to get the fish.
This time, Jared couldn't hold back his laughter. Trevor quickly tugged on Jaredâs clothes to stop him.
Angela also laughed. âJust wait and see! | will definitely get it back.â
âMiss Angela, we believe in your ability,â Trevor hurriedly chimed in. After the meal, Sean found her a light and functioning fishing net in no time.
Angela decided to set off after taking a break.
After the meal, everyone on the base performed their duties. Angela was the most leisurely person among them. She changed into sports attire, picked up the fishing net, and went out.
The scenery along the way was picturesque, with gold and orange leaves carpeting the ground. Fall was, beyond a doubt, a perfect time for outdoor activities.
In the conference room, there were four people who were working obediently.
Trevor suddenly had a whim and glanced at Jared and Sean. âThe boss isnât here, so should we sneak out to help her with the fish?â
Jared was the most playful and was the first to raise his hand in approval. âOkay, okay! | like doing this kind of thing the most.â
Sean also felt that he could be lazy today. âOkay, letâs go!â
Only Willy was sticking to his post. He told them, âMake it quick, alright? I'll cover for you all in the meantime.â
âOkay, Willy. Youâre my best pal!â Trevor patted Willy on the shoulder, and the three of them hurriedly opened the door of the conference room.
