Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Chapter 1044

Captain Anderson sighed and remarked, “It’s no surprise that you’d put everything on the line to pursue

him. Moccan is also a ruthless person who will go to any length for vengeance. If I were in your shoes, I

think I would have done the same thing.”

Yes, Richard realized he needed to make it back to safety right then. However, he was compelled to

take this life threatening risk out of concern for protecting his loved ones.

Angela was wide awake and energized even though it was nearly midnight. An hour before Richard’s

flight landed, a car arrived to take her to Scarlet’s house. The two had agreed to go pick him up

together at the airport.

Two SUVs were waiting for them when they arrived at Scarlet’s house. Angela and Scarlet were in one

car as it moved through the dark night toward the military base airport.

It was fifteen minutes before the landing when Captain Anderson told Richard, “I’ve already contacted

the base to get a wheelchair for you.”

Knowing that Angela would be waiting to welcome him, Richard’s dashing brow furrowed, and he

asked, “Can you find a crutch for me instead?”

“Are there any differences between crutches and a wheelchair? Crutches will cause you more pain.”

Captain Anderson was at a loss for words.

“Yes, there is. People may assume that both of my legs are severely injured if I am in a wheelchair. At

least with crutches, I can prove that one of my legs is still fine, Richard joked.

“You truly are impossible to please.” Captain Anderson snorted lightly and got up to get him crutches.

Angela was restless in the airport lounge, as she paced up up and down. I’ve been told that he

fractured his leg. How bad is it?

She was desperate to see him.

After ten minutes, there was a commotion at the arrival hall. Scarlet and her husband, Walter, were still

seated when she abruptly rose to her feet. Walter reassured her, “Don’t worry, Richard will be arriving

shortly.”

“He’s hurt, and I have no idea how bad it is.” She was still apprehensive about her son.

Finally, a group of team members arrived in high spirits with a gray-bearded Albert and were greeted by

another team. After they had gone, a new team came in, and Angela’s beautiful eyes kept staring at

them. At the same time, she waited with bated breath, only to see Richard appear with crutches.

Even though he moved slowly, the rest of the team followed closely behind him and kept pace with his

footstep. The next instant, Angela dashed toward him and gave him a bear hug as he continued down

the hall.

He reached out and wrapped his arms around her. “Don’t worry, I’m all right.”

“How bad is your leg injury?” she asked hurriedly.

“You must be Miss Meyers! Richard’s injuries aren’t too serious. He just needs some time to get well,”

Captain Anderson said.

“How do you know my name?” she asked, surprised.

“Miss Meyers, our whole team knows your name. After all, you were the reason Captain Lloyd-” One of

the forthright members was on the verge of spilling the beans.

Captain Anderson cut him off with a slight cough. “Because Richard informed us that you are his soon-

to-be wife. That’s how we learned about you.”
