Richard swept his gaze across the two of them before saying to Trevor, “Continue your run.”
Trevor did not dare to protest. He waved to Angela with a smile. “I’ll carry on with my run, Miss Meyers.
Have a good rest!”
Angela felt a little bad as she watched Trevor running off into the distance. She turned to Richard and
said a little begrudgingly, “He ran all the way there and back with me, but you’re asking him to do
another run now. Will he be alright?”
“This is between me and my subordinate, Miss Meyers. You should stay out of it,” Richard retorted
coolly.
Angela bit her lip in slight embarrassment, but she did feel bad for Trevor.
She headed for the canteen. Everyone probably heard about her already, as they greeted her and were
very courteous toward her.
After breakfast, she realized that she did not have a phone, a laptop, or even Internet access.
was like she had gone back in time and was living in the old, pre-
Internet days. She was far too bored in her room, so she decided to take a tour around the place.
Angela chose a small path to follow. After walking about for a while, she heard someone calling out to
her. She turned to look and saw two men walking over with their hands full of freshly-hunted wild
rabbits.
“You must be Miss Meyers!”
“Yes, that’s me. Did you guys go hunting?” Angela was full of curiosity.
“Yup! There are a lot of wild rabbits around here, so we decided to catch a few to add to the menu,” the
older man said.
The other man looked a little younger. He blushed at the sight of Angela and was too embarrassed to
talk.
They all considered Angela a gorgeous woman whom they rarely had the fortune to meet in person.
She was even more beautiful than movie stars and other celebrities.
“Where does this path lead to? I’d like to take a walk,” Angela asked.
“It leads to the back of the mountain, which is a pretty rocky area. You need to be careful.”
“I will!” Angela flashed a grateful smile at them.
“You shouldn’t wander off too far either.I’m worried that you might get lost.”
Angela nodded in agreement. She was just taking a walk out of boredom, and she had complete faith
in her sense of direction, so she doubted that she would get lost in the woods like some sort of cliche.
Therefore, she continued down the path at leisure. She even spotted the wild white olives that Trevor
had plucked for her earlier. The sweet and sour taste had really grown on her.
Unfortunately, this particular tree did not have that many ripe ones. It took Angela quite some time to
find one that was ripe enough for her to eat. She felt pretty blissful as she munched on it.
She continued down the path, and soon enough, she arrived at a rocky plain.
Meanwhile, at the base’s main entrance, Richard walked out in search of Angela as he received some
new information that required him to ask her a few questions.
“Has anyone seen Angela?” Richard asked the people who were walking into the base. The two men
who went rabbit hunting were among them, so one of them quickly responded, “Captain Lloyd, I saw
Miss Meyers heading off on a walk to the back of the mountain.”
Richard felt his head throbbing slightly as he exhaled. She was indeed a troublesome woman. Could
she not just stay, in her room and read a book or two? The back of the mountain was full of sharp,
jagged rocks. It was not somewhere she should be running off to for some fun.
