Chapter 984
“Mom, don‘t waste money for me anymore,” Angela said to Daphne.
Daphne was stunned. Why does my daughter look depressed after I haven‘t seen her for a few months? She is
much more mature than before; even her smile betrays a hint of weariness. I‘ve doted on her since she was little,
so I know her personality better than anyone else does. She threw a hissy fit and was at odds with me over Dexter
when she came back from overseas last time. Why is she like a totally different person now?
“Let‘s go, Angela! Let‘s take a look together.” Annie dragged Angela into the living room with a smile.
They took the elevator to Angela‘s master bedroom on the fourth floor, where the couch was covered with
presents, as well as clothes and handbags from luxury brands. Annie picked up a necklace, saying, “Here is my
present for you. It‘s not expensive, but you mustn‘t frown upon it.”
“Why would I? I‘m happy that you could come and visit me,” Angela replied while looking at Annie with an

Annie then picked up a handbag and introduced it happily, saying, “Look, Angela. This is the latest item that your
mom bought for you. This handbag is worth more than 3 million!”
However, Angela was looking at her instead of the handbag.
Annie was sharp enough to sense it. She blinked her eyes, asking, “Angela, why do you keep looking at me for no
reason?”
Angela lowered her head in panic to conceal the look of guilt in her eyes. “Nothing. Let‘s chat again after I take a
shower.”
“Just go. I‘ll be here waiting for you.” Annie smiled with a nod. She urged Angela, saying, “Hurry and wash yourself.
There‘s a snag in your clothes.”
Angela entered her bathroom before sitting in the bathtub in a daze. Her life was back, but her heart felt empty, as
if there was no happiness for her anymore. She dared not recall those wonderful memories. They‘re all sins; I can‘t
even think about them.
She took a shower. After blowing her hair dry, she wrapped herself in a bath towel and entered the closet, which
was 100 square meters in size and was full of the designer clothes that Daphne had bought for her. She opened the
wardrobe and took a set of clothes out of it. It was a simple white sweater, matched with a pair of casual trousers.
However, the diamond belt around her waist made her appear noble for no apparent reason.
When Annie saw Angela, she couldn‘t help but look at her enviously while propp her chin in her hand. “You‘re so
beautiful, Angela. I often feel stressed out in fron you!”
Angela looked at Annie‘s face, which was pretty, tender, and youthful. She‘s a lovely young lady that people would
like at first glance. Richard really shouldn‘t call off his engagement to her
“Angela, I have a big secret to share with you. Why don‘t you guess what it is?” Anr. asked her with a smile while
tilting her head to one side.
“Is it about your engagement?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That‘s right! I couldn‘t reach you on your cell phone when I got engaged last time After that, I heard that you were
in huge trouble and had been placed under protection, so I hadn‘t had the chance to talk to you about my fiancé.
Now I can finally share it with you.” Annie was already bursting with impatience to tell Angela about it. “His name is
Richard Lloyd. As for what he does for a living, I don‘t know that yet, but he‘s a really handsome and outstanding
person.” Her eyes were starry. She had only met Richard on the night of their engagement, but she had been unal
to forget his face since then.
Angela‘s heart clenched. She suddenly wondered if she should tell Annie that Richa and his team members were
the ones in charge of protecting her this time. If she kept this from Annie, she wouldn‘t be able to explain the
matter when the latter learned about it someday. “Richard Lloyd, huh? I met him before. He‘s the one assigned to
protect me during this mission,” she said while pretending to sound relaxed.
Annie‘s eyes widened at once. She looked at Angela in disbelief, saying, “Really? Angela, is Richard the one who
protected you this time? How many times have you met him? What do you think of him? Hurry and tell me about it!
I‘m dying to know everything about him.” Rubbing her hands together, she couldn‘t wait to listen to Angela‘s story.
