Chapter 899
Richard‘s big palm grabbed her hand in the next second, and his handsome face froze. Was he in her dreams?
Why would she tell him to run away? Was her pain caused by him?
At this moment, lears started pouring out of Angela‘s eyes. She panted and pleaded, “Richard, please don‘t die... I
can‘t let you dic...”
Angela almost cried in her dream. She watched as the masked man held the gun at Richard, as if he was about to
end the latter‘s life at any moment. Angela stood there in pain and felt so helpless that she could only call out for
help and cry.
However, she was not aware that in the real world, her painful appearance was being watched by a man on the
spot. She grabbed his hand tightly and cried so much in the nightmare that she could not extricate herself.
Richard could not stand to see her being haunted by nightmares anymore, so he stretched out his other hand and
patted her face. “Angela, wake up.”

she finally woke up in pain.
The last scene before she woke up was a bloody one. She heard the gunshot, and even though she dared not open
her eyes to see it, it was petrifying for her.
When she opened her eyes and saw the man beside the couch with tears in her eyes, she could hardly tell whether
it was reality or a dream. Nevertheless, the first thing she did was wrap her arms around the man‘s neck tightly,
burying her whole face in his chest.
She wanted to make sure that he was real.
Richard froze, letting her hug him for a while. When he recalled that she cried because of him in the nightmare, he
stretched out his hand and patted her back.
“You only had a nightmare,” he comforted her in a low voice.
Angela had come back to her senses now. It turned out to be just a dream.
However, the pain still could not go away in her mind. She closed her eyes and simply rubbed her tears on his
clothes.
Richard unfolded her arms around his neck, lowered his head, and tried to decipher her expression. Angela turned
away and covered her face in embarrassment. After taking a deep breath, she warned, “Don‘t laugh at me.”
In fact, he did not find it funny at all. All he wanted to know was if he was that weak in her dreams.
“I dreamed that you were abducted, and... you were shot with a gun on your head... Angela consciously explained
what happened in the dream to him.
Richard‘s thin lips curled slightly after hearing that. Did she worry about him so much that she bawled?
She did not even want him to die,
This time, he suddenly felt the urge to laugh, but he pursed his thin lips to endure it.
Angela looked up at him and noticed that he was stifling a laugh. She hit his arm with her fist out of anger and
scolded, “Do you have any conscience? I‘ve cried so much for you, yet you‘re laughing?!”
Richard stopped smiling this time and locked his gaze on her seriously. With a deep voice, he reassured her, “Don‘t
worry. Your dreams won‘t happen in reality.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Why?” Angela blinked.
In Richard‘s eyes, his self–confidence was burning. “I‘m strong.”
Angela looked at his sharp and stern face. The confidence in his eyes was by no means false. It was a strong
confidence that emitted from the depth of his eyes.
The lingering fear in Angela‘s nightmare quickly dissipated after seeing his gaze. She believed that he would never
turn her nightmare into a reality. He would always be strong.
Now she was exhausted. The consecutive nightmares made her face pale, and her eyes lost the luster of the past.
She was still sleepy, but she dared not fall asleep.
“Have you finished your work?” Angela asked him.
Richard gave her a doubtful look.
“Can... Can you stay here with me for a while? I‘m sleepy, but I‘m scared of having nightmares. If you‘re by my
side, I might sleep better,” Angela expressed her inner thoughts.
Richard glanced at the file next to him without her noticing and nodded, “Okay, I‘ll stay here and finish my work.
Get some sleep!”
