Why did Angela have to drown in self pity? Being rejected did not mean that she was not a likable
woman!
Forget it. It was time to sleep. Tomorrow morning would be another beautiful day. Angela admitted that
she was not worthy of Richard.
However, as she lay in bed, her mind began to wander. Could it be that she was with Dexter before? Or
was it that because she had shown her immense love for Dexter in front of Richard, making him feel
that she was a fickle, flirtatious woman?
After careful calculations, she realized that she had only been at the base for less than half a month.
Yet, she had already confessed to Richard. How embarrassing! Angela thought about this again and
again before calming herself down and deciding to let those feelings go and just be herself!
Early the following day, Angela got up and went for a run. She wanted to do something to distract
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtherself; she couldn’t utterly focus on Richard like that.
“Good morning, Miss Meyers!” Trevor and Jared greeted Angela when they bumped into her.
“Good morning,” she replied breathlessly with a bright smile.
It was evident that she was in a good mood, and this made Trevor and Jared exchange glances. They
thought that the date they had arranged last night made Richard and her take their relationship to the
next step!
Angela couldn’t help but ask when she saw them, “Is it convenient for me to ask you a question?”
“Go ahead,” Trevor said, happy to help. “Has your captain never had a girlfriend?” She asked directly.
This made Jared burst into laughter. “Miss Meyers, don’t worry. Our captain’s love life is as blank as
paper. He absolutely does not have any exes.”
“Yeah! We’ve been around him for so long, yet haven’t even seen him around a female, let alone a
girlfriend. So, you can pursue him without any worries,” Trevor added with a smile.
Angela lowered her head and smiled shyly as bitterness filled her heart. Finally, she raised her
eyebrows and replied, “You’ve misunderstood. I’m not trying to date him. I’m just asking.”
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 stare. 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.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAngela 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.
This made her smile. This fish was kinder than someone else!
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.
