“Wait. Are you giving that to Miss Meyers? I don’t think that’s a good idea. It’ll break her heart.
“Just give it to me.” Richard stared at the screen. He was reminded of what Angela told him earlier. He
wasn’t that close to her, but he thought it was a waste of her time spending all her life on someone like
Dexter.
This was just a friendly reminder for her to move on. He told his underlings, “And look into everyone
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhom Dexter has talked to for the past two years. I want them first thing next morning.” He left, and his
team members looked at one another.
“Wow. First time the captain cares about someone so much. Does he like her?”
“Well, she is beautiful. I can see why he likes her.”
“So is she gonna be his wife?”
“Maybe.”
“We’d better be nice to her then. Maybe the captain won’t kill us if we make any mistakes next time.
She can help us out.”
Their conversation was cut short, as the air itself froze. They could feel someone looking at them from
the doorstep, so they turned around. Much to their shock, Richard had come back right after he left,
and he was looking at them coldly.
“Ahem. I mean the captain won’t fall for Miss Meyers. He doesn’t like getting into any relationships.
That’s nonsense.
“That’s right! The captain’s not getting into any relationship. It’s gonna get in the way of his work. We
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgotta learn from him. Let’s not waste our time on relationships and spend all of it on work.”
“Miss Meyers isn’t that beautiful. She’s just pretty.
Richard went to his desk and picked a file up. He said icily, “If I hear you guys talking nonsense again,
you’re getting a ten-mile run tomorrow morning.” He left and closed the door.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. The captain’s getting really stealthy lately. We gotta keep our mouths
shut.
Angela was in her room. She had finished showering and just changed into her pajamas. She was still
wondering why Dexter wouldn’t take her call. What on earth is he doing?
