It was only after she sat in the bathroom and turned on the tap that she dared to wail loudly. However,
after she had cried her heart out, she realized that she still felt awful and decided to take a quick
shower before leaving the bathroom.
She blow-dried her waist-length hair and changed into a set of white pajamas before covering herself
up with a coat, all while looking listless.
When she saw the glass on the table, she reached out and took it. Then, she walked toward the kettle
and poured a glass of warm water for herself, slowly sipping at it.
While Angela drank, her tears suddenly gushed out again. She set down the glass of water and sat on
the couch with her hands covering her face like a child as she sobbed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, she wasn’t aware that in one corner of the room, there was a camera swiveling around like
an eyeball, watching every corner of the room.
At that moment, in a small town two hours away from the base, a black SUV was parked under an
inconspicuous tree. As the man in the car stared at the woman on the computer screen and watched
her cry in his room, his hands slowly balled into fists. Was she really that sad? He had followed her
wishes and left, so why was she still unhappy?
Just then, on the screen, Angela wanted to get up to get something, but as soon as she stood up, the
man predicted that she would hit herself and warned in a low voice across the screen, “Be careful.”
Alas, as expected, the woman on the screen did not notice the corner of the couch in her path and
bumped her knee viciously into it.
She crouched on the floor in pain, and the man on the screen sighed anxiously. This feeling of
watching her get hurt but unable to do anything made Richard inexplicably anxious. He stared at the
woman who was rolling her trousers up on the screen.
She had hit herself on the exact spot where she had scratched herself while kneeling on the ground
last time, and as a new injury was added onto her previous injury, her knee was currently covered in
blood.
On the screen, Angela was calm and tough. She stared at her wound in a daze, as if she didn’t even
want to deal with it.
What was she doing? Richard waited anxiously for her to get the first aid kit, but even after five
minutes, the woman remained motionless. Did she not know where the first aid kit was?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Angela wasn’t moving because she couldn’t be bothered to. The place she was hurting the
most wasn’t her knee, but her heart. On the contrary, as she looked at the injury on her knee, she
recalled the last time Richard squatted down to stop the bleeding and bandage her knee, which caused
her to become immersed in her memories again.
Is this woman not going to deal with her wound? Her knee is already this hurt, but she’s still spacing
out? Richard let out a sigh. In the end, he tapped a few buttons with his fingers and said in a low voice
toward the screen, “The first aid kit is in the cupboard. Go get it yourself.”
Angela, who was staring into nothing in the room, seemed to hear Richard’s voice coming from the
room all of a sudden. Because she had been spacing out, she thought she had imagined it. Still, she
couldn’t help but raise her head and look around before she looked at the door again, only to realize
that it was just her own imagination. He wasn’t there at all.
However, just then, a man’s voice sounded from the direction of the clock hanging on the wall again.
“Stop spacing out. Hurry up and deal with your wound.”
