“Stop lying to me. It must’ve been sent to you by Annie. She admires you very much,” Angela said
bitterly. I’m not a kid. I’m not that gullible.
“So what?” Richard’s eyes showed a hint of indifference as if he was unimpressed by Annie’s affection
for him.
Angela’s heart clenched as she clenched her fists subconsciously. “You can’t ignore a lady’s feelings
for you like this.”
Richard looked at her thoughtfully with a complicated look in his eyes. “I’m just following your example.
Aren’t you ignoring my feelings as well?” His gaze was intent and fathomless, but it showed no trace of
mockery.
Angela was instantly at a loss for a retort. She bit her lips, lowered her head, and closed her eyes.
A hint of regret flickered across Richard’s eyes. He felt that he shouldn’t have said what he said just

Angela said, “Annie and I have always been very close since we were little. She is my younger cousin,
but we’re like blood sisters. Do you think I’d still have the cheek to face her? I’m glad that we didn’t get
to the point where the damage is irreversible, so it’s not too late for us to end our relationship now.
Richard, I’m gonna retract all the feelings I previously had for you, and I beg you to forget my
impudence. W-We could be friends.” These words reflected her most sincere thoughts at this moment.
She looked up at him imploringly.
Sitting in his chair, Richard looked at her soberly like a statue while pressing his thin lips together
without saying a word.
Angela’s heart kept clenching; she was waiting for the man to give her a response instead of remaining
silent like this. However, she couldn’t get an answer from him, which made her feel a little bitter. She let
out a sigh, saying, “What do
you want, then? What do you want me to do? How should I apologize to you so that you’ll forgive me
for everything I’ve done to you these days?”
Her questions caused the man to stand up from his chair instantly. Then, he stepped toward her with
his long and slender legs.
Angela couldn’t help but give a gulp while looking at him nervously. “W-What are you doing?”
Richard’s body was full of overwhelming strength as he approached Angela. On the other hand, she
was already sitting on the bed in the first place, so she had no other way but to lie down to avoid
getting close to him. Consequently, she lay supine on the bed with him putting his hands on either side
of her head for support, resulting in a posture that was rather too suggestive.
“W-What are you doing? Richard, I-I’m warning you…” Angela stuttered in panic.
Richard stared at her intently with at frown. “Take the initiative once again, then. If I’m satisfied, I might
agree to your demands and not show up anymore.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAngela colored up in nervousness. Isn’t it too impudent of him to make such a demand?
How could I possibly kiss him on my own initiative right now? “No, I’m not gonna agree to that.” She
shook her head.
“I won’t agree to break up with you, then.” Richard looked at her resolutely.
Angela was even more resolute, though. “No, no, no. We have to break up-”
The man loomed above her like a giant mountain. Like an unbreakable prison, he left her with no room
to escape or avoid him. He looked at her with dark eyes that showed surging emotions under the light -
a look that meant he was getting aroused by her.
Sensing the overwhelmingly oppressive presence, she stretched out her hands to push him. Annoyed
and embarrassed, she ordered, ‘Get up, Richard.”
Richard stared meaningfully at Angela’s blushing face, her disheveled hair, and her resentful
expression. The lady beneath him was like a spell that he was unable to free himself from.
