Angela's eyes widened. “What? Are you guys going to get beaten up?” “No, not really. But we've never won against Mr. Richard in a fight, so we'd always get beaten up,” Jared said with a bitter laugh.
She wheezed at his words. After lunch, many went for an afternoon nap, but she wanted to hang out in Richard's room.
She made two cups of coffee and went to his room. He was just making a call when he saw her cin and whispered into the phone, “I'll call you back in a bit.” Angela froze at the door with the coffee in her hands, for it felt like she was intruding on his space.
“| got you scoffee.” Angela walked in and placed the cup down. She took her cup of coffee and said, “I'll go back to my room so that | don’t disturb you. Please continue with your call.” She wanted to leave as she finished her words.
“Don’t be angry. My job requiresto keep the information confidential,” he explained.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter mulling over it for a while, Angela nodded. ‘Okay, | understand. I'm not angry anymore.” She knew where Richard was coming from, but she was still a little upset. She wanted to know him better and enter his world, but the doors to his heart were shut tight with no way of opening them.
It seemed like she only knew what was on the outside; she could see his appearance and personality, but she had no idea what was on his mind, and that made her anxious.
Angela knew better than to stay, so she left. At 3.00PM, she arrived at the boxing. gym and saw Richard and his subordinates already in their boxing attire.
“Sit here, Miss Meyers. | prepared ssnacks for you to eat while you watch the match.” Trevor was being considerate as he guided her to a seat.
She was helpless; it felt weird to snack while watching them getting beaten up.
“Hang in there, Willy! Help us exhaust Captain Lloyd even more so that we'll receive fewer punches,” Sean hollered at the side.
Willy was fully-clothed most of the time, so Angela just cto realize he had a whole body of muscles and looked like an expert fighter.
At the stime, Angela was worried for Richard. Even though he was slightly taller than Willy with a well proportioned body, he was not muscular.
However, he had strength hidden in him.
“Are you sure he can win against Willy?” Angela asked abruptly.
Her voice reverberated in the gym, loud and clear. The other three subordinates’ faces turned pale. What Angela said was encouraging Richard to fight even harder.
They regretted asking Angela to watch, for they had set up a trap for themselves and evoked Richard's potential.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilly's already straight face tensed even more. With Angela there, Richard would fight harder than he usually would. Willy could not afford to be distracted.
However, Angela sat there with an innocent face. She was tense for Richard as she hoped he would not get hurt fighting the four of them.
“Miss Meyers, did you manage to finish watching the movies | downloaded for you last time? If you're not done, you can go back and watch them.” Trevor tried to get her to leave.
Instead, she shook her head and smiled. “I don’t want to. | want to watch you guys practice punching.” A mix of emotions flashed across Trevor, Jared, and Sean's faces. Richard looked toward them and saw the girl looking at him full of smiles. He composed himself and got ready to fight.
“Captain Lloyd, here | come!” Willy roared and swung his iron fist toward Richard.
Terrified, Angela almost dropped the snacks in her hands and shivered. Trevor immediately comforted her by saying, “It’s okay.
Don’t worry, Captain Lloyd won't get hurt.” As Richard dodged Willy's punch, he noticed Angela's nervous face and smirked. He liked that she was worried about him.
Meanwhile, Willy attacked ceaselessly. If it was an ordinary person, one punch would have taken them out. However, Richard swiftly dodged his attacks every tand returned a strong blow. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he did not hold back during the fight.
