“Yes, we almost came out in our underwear,” Jared added.
“Fortunately, we wrapped ourselves in bath towels; otherwise, we would be embarrassed to death.”
Richard calmly listened to their explanation, but his face was still a little ugly.
What the hell is this woman angry about? I only disallowed her to climb the mountain! With her
physique, even if she can climb up, she definitely won’t be able to come down.
Now, at this time, she went to the public bathroom to take a bath. There were so many men there, yet
she was not afraid at all.
“Captain, go and admit your mistake to Miss Angela and let her go back to your room to take a shower!
She really scared us to death,” Trevor said,
“Go back to your room and rest,” Richard said to them, turning around and closing the door.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds but had no choice but to go back to the room. It

Richard returned to the sofa and picked up the book he was reading just now, but he suddenly had no
interest. He took a deep breath and dropped the book. Angela’s appearance after her bath involuntarily
appeared in his mind. He had to admit that her flushed face had a special kind of charm.
Does she want all the men in the base to appreciate her freshly showered appearance? Richard let out
an irritated sigh, got up, and pushed the door to go out.
Angela had just taken a shower and was about to go to bed when there was a knock on her door.
She felt a little odd. It was so late, so who was looking for her? She got up and opened the door, only to
see a tall figure with an oppressive aura outside the door, Blocking the light outside.
“Do you need something?” Angela self consciously crossed her arms after realizing she was not
wearing a bra.
Richard gave her a withering look as he ordered, “You are not allowed to use the public bathroom for
your night showers.”
She narrowed her eyes and asked, “Why not?”
He met her incredulous gaze steadily and said, “Because it causes inconvenience.”
Frustration welled up in her. She had already gone out of her way to not make trouble for him, and she
could not understand why he was nitpicking on her still.
He did not turn away and leave. Instead, he paused for a few seconds before saying, “I’m sorry I was
harsh with you today.”
Angela blinked, clearly caught off-guard by his out-of-the-blue apology. When she recomposed herself,
she looked away from him and muttered, “Apology not accepted.
“You wanted to hike, right? Be up at 6.00AM sharp tomorrow and I’ll take you there,” Richard said.
Her competitive side came out as she retorted, ‘As if I’d back down from that.”

“I won’t, she bit out.

and saw that it was drawing near to 11.00PM. I have to sleep now, or I won’t be able to wake up in time
and I’d never hear the end of it!
She burrowed into bed, but her mind kept replaying his apology and the events. from earlier. In
hindsight, it appeared that she was the one in the wrong. After all, she was the one who got mad and
started the whole conflict in the first place.
And the only reason why she was mad was that she found out Richard was only here to protect her at
her parent’s behest. In other words, she was just another job.
