Chapter 906
The smile on Trevor and Jared‘s faces froze as curiosity flashed across their faces. Then. Trevor asked urgently,
“Why?”
“Your captain is too good for me. I don‘t deserve him. Don‘t misunderstand us, and don‘t try to set us up, or it
would be awkward for the two of us,” Angela reminded them. Running had made her hair loose, so she pulled out
her rubber band; her long, thick hair swayed casually under the morning sun
This made Trevor and Jared starte. Her beauty was out of this world. Any ordinary man would fall for her if they
looked a little longer.
“Alright, I‘ll go and continue my run.” She felt she hadn‘t run enough and pointed at the path beyond the mountain.
“I‘ll head over there.”
“Be careful, Miss Meyers,” Trevor prompted.
Angela waved her hand as she ran into the morning fog. The mountain in the autumn, coupled with the falling
maple leaves, was breathtaking. She sat on the stone beside her and noticed a fish swimming around her foot.

Angela stayed here for almost the entire morning. She was unaware that back in the cafeteria, Jared and Trevor,
who were about to get their food, realized that she did not show up for breakfast.
“Is Miss Meyers lost? Why isn‘t she back yet?” Jared asked worriedly.
“Exactly. She said she was going to jog up the mountain. She shouldn‘t climb it alone. That mountain is dangerous!”
Trevor thought that Angela was adventurous and was afraid that she had climbed the mountain alone.
“Miss Meyers should be smarter than that,” Sean chimed in.
“Was Miss Meyers in a bad mood?” Willy asked as well.
In the room, Richard, who had been quietly eating his breakfast, suddenly got up and left.
The four men immediately looked at their captain, who had just sat down.
“Captain must be going to look for her!”
“I think he might have broken Miss Meyers‘ heart last night. When I met her this morning, she said that Captain was
too good for her and that she wasn‘t worthy of him.
“How could she not be worthy? There are so many men after her,” Sean defended Angela.
Willy, who was usually a man of few words, saw the bigger picture and gave the other three a blank look. “What do
you guys know? Look at what we‘re doing. We‘re all protecting Miss Meyers, even the Captain. So, how can he talk
about his feelings here? It‘s precisely because he wanted to
protect and ensure that Miss Meyers is completely safe that he did not allow his personal affairs to affect his
reasoning and judgment.”
“That‘s right. I seem to remember hearing from Richard that having a woman will affect his job efficiency.”
“That makes sense. So, it‘s not that the Captain doesn‘t like Miss Meyers. He just doesn‘t want to date her at the
moment since we‘re working. I understand now.”
“It is also our top priority to keep Miss Meyers safe. But don‘t forget that great danger lurks behind her. So, we
cannot take things lightly,” Willy reminded.
At this moment, the other three suddenly felt a rush of enlightenment through their mind.
The fog next to the mountain was still thick, clouding her view. Angela was in a daze when she heard footsteps
approaching her. She turned her head and looked at the foggy path as her heart tightened.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWho was that?
Just as she was about to call out and ask, she noticed a tall, straight figure breaking out of the fog. Who else could it
be other than Richard?
This made her frown. Why did he come looking for her?
However, her heart still hammered in her chest when she saw that he was here; she couldn‘t help but gently press
her palm against her chest.
Calm down.
“Don‘t stay out here too long. It‘s not safe,” Richard approached and reminded her.
Angela nodded obediently. “Okay. I know. I‘ll go, back now.”
He stood there momentarily and noticed that she did not move, so he suggested, “I‘ll walk you back.”
“No, it‘s okay. Thank you. I want to sit down here a while longer. Captain Lloyd, don‘t waste your time here. Go do
what you have to do,” she answered politely.
