Chapter 973


    “Why don’t you give the car to me, and I’ll drive it back?” Ang asked bravely.


    Richard was not going to agree. After all, she didn’t have the ability to handle the steep and dangerous


    mountain roads.


    “No,” he rejected.


    Just then, the sky turned overcast; it was clear that it was about to rain soon. Sure enough, rain began


    drizzling on Ang’s head after a while, causing her to cover her head with her hand. However, the


    rain came pouring down all of a sudden.


    “Hurry up and get in the car,” the man in the car ordered in a low voice. Was she trying to get herself


    drenched again after she had just recovered from her fever?


    Irked by the unreasonable weather, Ang hastily walked to the passenger seat before she opened the


    door and went inside without sparing the man in the back seat a nce.


    It was exceptionally quiet in the car. isted from the rain outside. Ang’s thoughts were in a


    complete mess, and all of her senses were trained on the man in the back seat as she listened to the


    sound of him tapping the keyboard and his small sighs.


    “Didn’t you leave on a mission? Why are you still here?” Ang asked angrily,


    “I thought you didn’t want to see me?” Richard fixed his gaze on the screen, asking without raising his


    head.


    “I just said we shouldn’t meet. I didn’t mean to drive you out of the base.” Ang wondered if he had


    spent the past few days in the small town. Where did he sleep? How were his meals? Had he stayed in


    this car the entire time? At the thought, she turned to cast him a pained nce, but she saw that his


    shirt was clean and tidy, and he didn’t look like he had been staying in the car.


    Richard didn’t speak, but Ang felt that her mouth was turning a little dry, and she wanted to drink


    some water. Hence, she had no choice but to ask, “Is there any water in your car?”


    Richard reached out and took out a ss in the storagepartment of the car door and handed it to


    her. When Ang saw that it was his ss, she suddenly stiffened for a few seconds. “I was talking


    about mineral water.”


    At her words, Richard raised his head, his brows furrowed tightly. “I don’t have any.”


    Why was she refusing his ss? Didn’t she drink from his ss when she was in his room?


    Ang’s face turned a little embarrassed as she shared his thoughts. Last night, when she was in his


    room, she didn’t have a problem with drinking from his ss, but it was like a p in the face for her if


    she was refusing his ss now.


    She took out her backpack and dug out. her purse from inside before opening it. Except for a bunch of


    cards, there wasn’t any money left inside. She didn’t have any spare change as well, for she had given


    the rest of her money to the elderly people earlier.


    “Do you have money? Lend me a hundred.” Ang asked the man behind her, reaching out her hand


    to borrow some money from him.

    Richard paused in surprise for a few moments before he retrieved his wallet from his pocket and took


    out a hundred dor bill. He then handed it to her.


    I’ll return it to you someday,” Ang replied as she took the money from him.


    Richard nced at her and said indifferently, “You don’t have to.”


    “I will. I don’t want to owe you a favor.” Ang really wanted to cut off all ties with him at this moment,


    and she would settle everything with him.


    Richard was so furious that he pushed his tongue against the inside of his cheek and red at the


    back of her head irritably. This woman’s behavior always made him angry.


    However, Ang took his money and go out of the car in the rain to buy some water. After a while, she


    came back with a bottle of water and the change. Her bangs got wet, and shebed her long hair


    away before she unscrewed the cap and drank from the bottle.
