Chapter 987


    “Is it about your engagement?”


    “That’s right! I couldn’t reach you on your cell phone when I got engagedst time. After that, I heard


    that you were in huge trouble and had been ced under protection, so I hadn’t had the chance to talk


    to you about my fiancé. Now I can finally share it with you.” Annie was already bursting with impatience


    to tell Ang about it.


    “His name is Richard. Lloyd. As for what he does for a living, I don’t know that yet, but he’s a really.


    handsome and outstanding person. Her eyes were starry. She had only met Richard on the night of


    their engagement, but she had been unable to forget his face since then.


    Ang’s heart clenched. She suddenly wondered if she should tell Annie that Richard and his team


    members were the ones in charge of protecting her this time.


    If she kept this from Annie, she wouldn’t be able to exin the matter when thetter learned about it


    someday. “Richard Lloyd, huh? I met him before.. He’s the one assigned to protect me during this


    mission,” she said while pretending to sound rxed.


    Annie’s eyes widened at once. She looked at Ang in disbelief, saying, “Really? Ang, is Richard


    the one who protected you this time? How many times have you met him?


    What do you think of him? Hurry and tell me about it! I’m dying to know everything about him.” Rubbing


    her hands together, she couldn’t wait to listen to Ang’s story.


    Ang was lost for words for a moment. Seems like Annie assumes that Richard and I didn’t meet


    often. But who would know that we’d lived together day and night for two months? “1” She sat down.


    However, as soon as she uttered the first syble, Annie held her hand and asked again, “How is he?


    Is he easy to get along with? Is he a serious man? He knows that we’re cousins, right? Did he take


    good care of you?”


    Ang’s heart suddenly clenched. Seeing the curious look in Annie’s eyes, she found herself at a loss


    for words for a moment.


    Just then, Annie’s cell phone rang; she picked it up and looked at its screen. “It’s Grandpa. He’s


    probably calling me to urge us to go out for dinner,” she said before stepping aside to answer the


    phone. “Hey, Grandpa! We’reing.” she said. Then, she hung up and said to


    Ang, “Ang, go put on a coat. It’s time for us to go out for dinner. Everybody wants to see you.”


    Ang nodded before standing up to get her coat. However, after entering the closet, she leaned


    against the wall wearily and let out a sigh. In the end, she grabbed an overcoat and went out with


    Annie.


    Daphne and Gilbert had been waiting for her. When she came out, Daphne came over and looked at


    her. She said in surprise, “Why are you dressed so simply? You’re not wearing makeup, nor are you


    wearing earrings or a ne.””


    Ang shook her head with a smile. “It’s okay, Mom. We’re just going for dinner with our family.”

    Daphne had no choice but to drop the matter. Just then, the female helper who had gone to collect the


    laundry came over and said, “Miss Ang, this fell out of your clothes.” She was holding a pink raw


    crystal in her hand.


    Ang’s heart twinged. As she took the crystal, Annie leaned over curiously to look at it, asking, “What


    is this, Ang? Is this a crystal?”


    “Yeah. I got it in the mountains.” Ang put the crystal into her handbag.


    “It looks quite beautiful. Do you want to make the crystal into a pendant or a bracelet?” Daphne asked


    with a smile.


    “I-I haven’t made up my mind yet.” Ang recalled how she had told Richard that she wanted to have


    the crystal made into two pendants so that they’d each. have one. Right now, however, she didn’t want


    to make the crystal into anything. I’ll just take it as a memento.
