Chapter 971
‘Why was she worried about me?‘
‘She asked me if you went on a mission, if you were alone, whether you were safe or not, and if you could handle it.
I told her that you‘re undefeated, so she doesn‘t have to worry
Trevor wasn‘t afraid of speaking too much in his text, because he felt that Richard would want to know every word
Angela said. However, Richard didn‘t reply anymore. Trevor was aware of his boss‘ personality–after he got the
information he wanted, he would basically ignore them.
During the two hours they spent driving along the mountain path, Angela felt like she was on a roller coaster due to
the constant turns and bends. When she came last time, it was at night, and she was asleep then. She had by now
fully experienced the steep terrain of the mountain area. Even so, when she arrived in the small town, Angela felt

weather to change and packed enough clothes for her, or she would‘ve frozen to death. Still, she wanted to go
shopping, and she had also brought money with her, so she decided to make a few purchases later.
They parked their car on a road outside the town and walked in. This was not a huge city, but a small town, and
even their liveliest area was nothing more than a street that was not longer than a mile with several shops along it.
However, there were many fruits from the mountains nearby which looked delicious.
“Miss Angela, you‘ll have to settle for this. This is just a small town in the mountains, so there‘s not much to buy,”
Trevor said.
“It‘s all right. I‘m happy enough to be able to come out and get some fresh air.” Angela smiled.
At this moment, Trevor saw a familiar car, and he quickly tapped Jared beside him and pointed at it. After Jared
noticed it as well, he nudged Sean and Willy to look in the same direction. As they looked at the black SUV parked
out of view, they could see a tall figure that was vaguely visible in the driver‘s seat.
What was going on with Richard and Angela? Why did he have to sneak around like this just to look at her? Couldn‘t
he get out of the car and walk around with Angela openly?
On the other hand, Angela didn‘t notice the car and was squatting down as she asked an old lady about the price of
some fruits, which was a wild pear from the mountains that looked crunchy and sweet. When she saw the old lady‘s
simple clothes, she immediately bought all the fruits from her stall with five hundred. Of course, these fruits didn‘t
even add up to a hundred; Angela had paid her extra.
The old lady was so happy that she began tearing up, thanking her profusely. Her actions made Angela
embarrassed as she hurriedly said it was fine. At that moment, several elderly people called out to her to have a
look at their stalls as well.
Trevor and the others watched dumbfoundedly as Angela spent all the cash she had. In the end, each of them
walked down the street with large bags of fruits in hand, drawing much attention toward them. Angela‘s kindness
made her easily likable as well. After all, she was as pretty as a movie star, and it made her seem unreal.

Meanwhile, the man in the SUV saw everything. He watched as she finally had a smile on her face, watched as she
was surrounded by a group of old people thanking her, and looked at her shy expression. The corners of his lips
raised slightly with a faint smile. Though this woman might be foolish at times, she was still so likable.
After Angela spent all the cash she brought, there was nowhere for her to use her card, so she could only give up.
“Miss Angela, it seems like it‘s going to rain, so we‘ll have to go back soon,” Trevor said.
“All right!”
“However, we have to go to the city for a task, so it‘s not convenient for you to follow us. How about this? Miss
Angela, we have a teammate here, so how about you go back in his car later?” Trevor asked.
“Huh? Whose car will I take?” Angela was taken aback. Trevor and the others couldn‘t be planning to leave her
behind, right?
“Look, do you see that car? That‘s our teammate‘s car. If you knock on the door later, he‘ll take you back safely.”
Trevor secretly pointed at the black SUV not far away.
