Noticing what happened, his subordinates deliberately teased them and brought the helicopter to a
sudden drop.
“Ah-” The next second, while Angela blushed, she hugged Richard tightly again as her heart pounded.
“Trevor, are you trying to dig your own grave?” Richard gave the pilot in the cockpit a warning glare.
Trevor Hemmings smiled and dared not joke around anymore.
Steadily, he flew the helicopter back to their base.
An hour later, Angela took a shower to clean herself up from head to toes in the bathroom. After she
came out of the shower, she was surprised to see a set of clean and tidy camouflage uniforms on her
bed. Who are these people? Why is there military equipment everywhere here?
When Angela recalled what happened in the morning, she felt terrible and found her mysterious
bodyguard to be even more hateful.
She opened the door and came out to see a man sitting on the sofa operating a computer. It was
Richard.
“Hey, your name is Gideon Lambert, right?” Angela questioned him in irritation. She merely heard the
name from him this morning, but she was not completely sure if it was his name.
“My name is Richard Lloyd.” Richard raised his head to correct her.
“Great! You even lied to me about your name. What else are you hiding from me? Also, are you an
undercover spy? How do you know I am in danger?”
“You bumped into a woman at the airport yesterday, and that woman was holding lipstick. Your lipsticks
have been swapped. Now, I need you to tell me where the lipstick that you picked up at the airport
yesterday was.” Richard’s eyes were fixed on her.
Angela could not help looking at him in shock while taking a seat opposite him.
“Those three people came after me today just because I wore the wrong lipstick? Is that lipstick really
so important?”
“It was actually a USB drive with research results worth 70 million being saved in it. Now, you tell me, is
it important?” Richard had no intention of hiding the truth from her.
Angela held her breath. Who the hell did I bump into?
“Who are they?”
“They are the world’s top thieves and international serial criminals. I’m asking you about the lipstick.”
The most important thing for Richard now was the whereabouts of the lipstick. Lipstick? Angela’s
beautiful eyes widened slightly.
“I… I threw it away yesterday into my backyard!”
Richard was stunned to hear that. He shut the computer and yelled angrily, “Why did you throw it
away?”
“I thought it was mine, and this lipstick was given by my boyfriend. He broke up with me and is getting
married with another woman now. So, I just threw away all the things that he gave me in a fit of anger.
How was I supposed to know that that lipstick had such a big secret in it?” Angela was also
speechless.
What an unpredictable world. Yesterday, she was still in pain because her boyfriend had dumped her.
Today, she experienced a near-death incident, and now, she was involved in such a terrifying matter.
“You…” Richard wanted to scold her, but he managed to stop himself from doing that.
He had no right to teach her a lesson.
“You can just look for it in my backyard. You should be able to find it there.”
” Angela wanted to solve this matter as soon as possible as she did not want to be involved in this kind
of a mess at all.
“I’ll send someone to search your backyard. But until then, you can only stay here. You’re not allowed
to go anywhere.”
