nAngella wanted to say something but couldn't. There was no way she could justify her acts, especially in front of Roger.

nShe very well knew that no one would understand the feelings and emotions she harbored for Yichan since the first time she had met him. Though he was a married man, it didn't affect how she felt for him.

nJust then a black car stopped on the other side of the road.

nA man dressed in black stepped out of the car and started walking towards Roger and Angella.

nAs soon as the man approached them, he respectfully greeted Roger before taking Angella with him.

n

"Make sure she is not seen here in the future,

" Roger instructed before walking towards the entrance of the building.

n….

nTen minutes later.

nInside Roger's car.

nTapping her finger on the seatbelt, Ning asked,

"So do you wanna talk about it?

" When Roger did not say anything, she sighed,

"Alright, whenever you are ready.

"

nKeeping quiet for quite some time, he asked,

"Are you mad or upset?

"

n

"About a silly girl preying on my lovely husband who is head over heels for me?

" Shaking her head, she chuckled,

"Not really.

"

nBefore he could say anything, she added,

"You see Roger, it does bother me when women eye on my husband but I really don't feel threatened or anything. I know how Yichan is—and moreover if he does ends up choosing some silly girl over a fantastic and talented woman as I am then it's his loss.

"

n

"You also know Yichan will never even think of doing that. His day starts and ends with you.

" Helplessly shaking his head, he added,

"Do you have any idea how many people he called multiple times, asking them to keep an eye on you?

"

nNodding her head, she answered,

"Oh yes I do and if I had agreed, he would have taken me with him.

"

n

"Your husband is weird.

"

n

"He can be a little overprotective at times but I don't mind. In fact, I think it's cute.

"

nRolling his eyes, Roger scoffed,

"Oh please, stop it.

"

nPausing for a while, he stated,

"Angella was there outside the building, she wanted to meet Yichan.

"

n

"I know.

"

n

"I know that you know, I just wanted to let you know from my side.

" Roger knew that Ning most probably heard the news about Angella creating a scene outside Yichan's office, but he still wanted to inform her.

nLooking at him, Ning smiled,

"Well, it's good that you took care of her. If you wouldn't have been there to deal with her, I had better ruthless plans. In fact, I should be thankful to you for saving my energy.

"

n

"Don't worry about her, she will not bother you guys anymore,

" he sighed.

n

"You don't have to worry about us, we are fine and we will be fine but what about you?

" Pausing for a while, she added,

"I can understand how hard things have been for you recently. Everything happened so quickly that I doubt if you got any chance to think it over.

"

nWithout waiting for his reply, she remarked,

"I heard about the close relationship you shared with Angella in the past and now—

" Stopping midway, she sighed. She knew though Roger acted like everything was okay, he wasn't.

nWhat he had discovered was something very big and sentimental. It definitely had a huge impact on both his mental and emotional state.

nKeeping quiet for quite some time, he said,

"I agree everything happened very quickly and I am still not over it but I think it was for the best.

" Pausing for a while, he added,

"You see Ning, for so many years, I have been living in a fake whirl of emotions and truth which was made up by my own father. I pushed all the people that I cared about and who cared about me away, harboring nothing but hatred for them in my heart.

"

n

"You know, at times it did feel wrong. Whatever I did and even thought of doing felt wrong but my strong hatred for everyone was enough to shrug off that feeling,

" he added.

n

"It's not your fault, it was the situation that you were in,

" Ning remarked.

nRoger nodded his head and agreed,

"But now everything is perfect. I got my best friends back, I have you and I also somehow managed to mend my relationship with Lucas so—

"

n

"Now that you mentioned Lucas, where is he these days?

" she asked.

"The last time I heard of him, he was out on a vacation with Flora.

"

n

"They came back last week. Wanna pay him a visit after dinner?

"

n

"Of course, I would never say no.

"

n…..

nSomewhere in the outskirts

n

"How dare you step out without my permission?

" Kareem yelled at his daughter before slamming the table.

nStartled, Angella took a step back. She had never seen her father get so angry, especially with her.

n

"Answer me—

" he yelled at the top of his lungs.

n

"I—I just wanted to s—see him,

" she stammered.

n

"What did I tell you?

" When she did not answer, he shouted,

"Angella William, what did I tell you?

"

nGulping in nervousness, she lowered her head and started sobbing.

"I am sorry—

"

n

"Mo Yichan is not only our rival but also a married man and not to forget the fact that he doesn't like you the way you do. Why do you keep running to him when you also know nothing can ever happen between you and him?

" Kareem was very well aware of his daughter's weird obsession over Yichan.

nHe disapproved and was one hundred percent against it not only because Yichan was one of his targets but also because he didn't want his daughter to stoop low and eye on a married man. No father would ever want that and Kareem was no different.

nThis is why he has always stopped Angella from approaching or doing things which would attract Yichan's attention.

n

"I just wanted to see him once, just once—

"

n

"Why?

"

nKneeling on the floor, she started sobbing heavily.

"I don't know—

"

n…...
