Angela’s eyes started slightly. What is this guy doing? Don’t tell me he wants to take advantage of the situation to do something to me?
“W-What are you doing?” She quickly turned her face away as her breathing became irregular.
Richard just wanted to test her reaction at first. Seeing how she turned her face away in disgust, he straightened up and pointed at the bed, saying. “You sleep on the bed. I’ll sleep in the car.”
Angela was dumbstruck for a few seconds. At once, she was ashamed of how she had treated him just now. She bit her lip, saying, “It’s freezing in the car.
Why don’t you stay in the room instead?” It was a winter night, where the temperature could go as low as six degrees Celsius. Moreover, with today’s rain, the temperature would definitely. drop even lower. “Are you sure about that?” the man asked in a husky voice.
Biting her red lip, Angela replied, “You can stay here as long as you don’t get overfamiliar with me.”
“You can trust me, Richard promised in a deep voice.
Angela also trusted his character, which was why she told him to stay. And besides, the situation right now was too difficult for him. Even though she felt guilty toward Annie, she couldn’t chase the man out of the room and let him freeze in the car all night.
Seeing the remote control for the air conditioner, she couldn’t help but press the buttons on the remote control several times, only to find that the air conditioner didn’t respond no matter how she pressed the buttons. ‘Don’t tell me it’s broken.” She let out a groan of vexation while standing under the air conditioner.
“It is broken,” Richard said to her positively with his arms folded.
Dumbfounded, Angela stared at him. So he went out to get the greatcoat for me? “Thank you,” she said. She did need the greatcoat, though it had his smell on it. This greatcoat is probably his, she thought.
It was getting dark, but the rain was still pouring down with no signs of stopping. Suddenly, Angela’s stomach let out a growl in the quiet room, causing her to clap her hand over her stomach in embarrassment. She was hungry, but she could only eat liquid food after having just had a high fever. Because of that, she hadn’t eaten much since this morning.
“Let me take you somewhere to get something to eat,” Richard said to her.
Angela blinked her eyes. “Is there a place to eat around here?”
Richard had eaten at a farmhouse restaurant over the past few days, and the food there tasted pretty good. He nodded. “Come with me.”
