Chapter 960
Night of Destiny
Not long later, Carlton sent the video to her, and Ariel lay on the bed and admired it repeatedly. The
more she looked at it, the angrier she became. Whenever she watched the video and felt Richardâs
overbearing liking for Angela, her knees went weak when she imagined what it was like to be forcefully
kissed by such a man.
Ariel didnât dare to look for Angela at this moment. After all, she was still extremely afraid of Richard.
He was just that complicated. He had a kind of charm that made every woman fall for him at a glance,
but he also had a regal aura that sent shivers down everyoneâs spine.
Even so, women always favored men like him, and every woman yearned to see him let down his
guard and look at them gently and affectionately.
Angela returned to the room and sat on the bed with her knees in her arms, falling into a daze. She
was still overwhelmed by a strong sense of guilt.
She thought that as she was about to go back soon, she was about to see Annie. Therefore, she had to
stay away from Richard and erase everything that happened here. She was determined not to harm
Annie.
Angela wasnât aware of how long she spent in a daze and ended up forgetting about dinner. In the end,
it was Trevor who knocked on her door to call her out.
âMiss Angela, itâs time for dinner. Come on out.â
Angela opened the door and looked at him with red eyes. âI donât have an appetite. You can eat without
me.â
âShould I ask the chefs to cook something simple for you?â
âItâs all right, thank you. I just want to rest.â Angela shook her head.
Trevor looked at her with a pained expression. âDid you argue with Mr. Richard?â
âNo, we didnât argue. Something just came up. Trevor, please tell the others that Captain Lloyd and I
are just friends,â Angela instructed.
Trevor was a little surprised. It seemed things had gotten serious! Was Angela denying that she was in
a relationship with Richard?
âOh! Sure, Iâll tell them.â Trevor nodded. Then, due to his sharp eyes, he noticed that Angelaâs face was
unnaturally red and hurriedly asked, âAre you alright? Do you feel sick anywhere?â
âNo, Iâm fine.â Angela smiled. Just then, her head spun, causing her to grab onto the door frame before
saying to Trevor, âIâm really fine. You donât have to worry.â
âYou look sick to me. Donât tell me youâve fallen ill!â Trevor continued to press her in concern.
âIâm completely fine. You should go and eat!â She shot him a smile, then closed the door.
Angela subconsciously touched her forehead, and the heat beneath her fingers startled her. It seemed
that she was burning up. It must be because she had gotten wet in the rain, but it wasnât a big deal, and
it wasnât serious either. Once she went to sleep and sweated it out, she would be fine.
When Trevor returned to the dining hall, he noticed that not only was Angela absent, but Richard was
nowhere to be seen as well.
âIs Mr. Richard not coming too?â he asked.
âNo. I think heâs not in a good mood,â Sean said with a shrug.
âI donât know what happened to him and Miss Angela. Just now, Miss Angela told me not to say
anything unnecessary about their relationship in the future, and that theyâre just friends.â
âReally? That must be because Mr. Richard hurt Miss Angelaâs feelings.â
âThatâs possible too. Mr. Richard has never understood a womanâs heart, so Miss Angela must not like
people like him.â
âBut, earlier I saw that Miss Angelaâs complexion looked bad. It looked like she was sick, but she wasnât
willing to tell me either. I feel a little concerned,â Trevor said worriedly.
âThen you should tell Mr. Richard later! Itâs best for him to handle things like this. Weâre not the right
man for the job,â Sean answered.
After Trevor finished dinner, he went to Richardâs room and knocked on the door, but no one answered
the door, making it clear Richard was not inside.
Just then, a team member who was passing by explained, âMr. Richard went to the security team
earlier. I think he has something to discuss with them.â
