Chapter 924

I aggravated her mood.

“Why are you looking at her? Is she as attractive as I am?” Ariel vented her rage at him.

She was aware of his feelings for her, so she exploited them to manipulate him. As a result, she was
naturally irritated when she noticed him staring at other girls.

Although Carlton refrained from responding to Ariel. He secretly thought that Miss Meyers was on a
different level than Ariel regarding height, appearance, and aura; these were not qualities that any
ordinary Jane possessed.

Angela was actually quite moody. She didn’t feel like eating so she didn’t take too much food for
herself. She finished her meal and left right after that. She was quite dejected and was about to return
to her room with a downcast spirit.

However, she didn’t look where she was going and nearly walked into a pole. Luckily, at that moment, a
guy’s hand reached out to catch her elbow and pulled her away from the pole swiftly so she was saved
from injuring her forehead.

Angela then lifted her head and saw Richard’s face appeared in front of her. Even under the bright,
glittering lights, his sharp features were evident and unable to be softened.

“Thanks.” Angela expressed her gratitude politely. At that moment, she was annoyed with herself for
her bad habit of not looking at where she was going.



“Richard, what a coincidence!” Suddenly, a coquettish woman’s voice rang out from behind and the
person called his name affectionately.




Angela turned around to look at him and saw Ariel heading toward them with an enthusiastic look on
her face. Ariel smiled sweetly at Richard before coming to the realization of Angela’s presence as she
greeted Angela, “Hi, I’m Ariel.”

“I’m Angela.” Angela revealed a slight smile.

The girl had addressed Richard by his first name so they must be quite close to each other. As such,
Angela was quite perceptive and she mentioned, “I’ll leave now to give you guys some private time
together.”

After Angela finished saying that, she initially intended to go back to her room but she suddenly had a
whim and decided to walk in the direction of the front door. However, the night skies had completely
darkened.

Richard didn’t even bother to cast eyes on Ariel, but he turned around to look at the figure at the
doorway who had gradually disappeared in the distance.

Subsequently, he shot a look at Ariel. “You should go back to your room and get some rest. I’m busy.”

He finished saying that and strode briskly toward the front door.

As for Angela, she walked slowly and arrived by the side of the sports field. She walked past a grassy
patch and noticed a rock blocking her path. She lifted her feet to kick it aside but the rock was half
embedded in the ground so her kick did not dislodge the stone at all. Unfortunately for her, she injured
her toe in the process.

“Ouch! Oh my goodness!” She bent down in pain and thought to herself, Everything’s a mess!

However, she was unaware that right behind her, about five meters away, a man had already come
after her. She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she did not realize he was there.



Therefore, the scene of her kicking the stone and injuring herself along the process was taken in by the
man. He couldn’t help smiling with a slightly resigned expression. This woman doesn’t quite learn from
her mistakes and she keeps getting herself into trouble!
