Chapter 14
Seeing Brenda’s excited expression, Angela calmly said, “Even if I ignore him this time, he will find another opportunity to plot against me. It’s
better to teach him a lesson now.”
“He must have given you a tough client. What will you do?
Angela smiled. “Don’t worry, Go back to your work.”
“I still can’t help worrying. I’ll go with you when you meet the client”
“No need. If I can’t handle this, how will the company survive bigger challenges?”
Seeing Angela’s insistence, Brenda reluctantly agreed, “Alright, but if anything unexpected happens, you must call me. Don’t try to handle it alone.
will. Don’t worry
Soon after Brenda left, Frank arrived with the contract to be handled.
He was snug. “I hope you will close this deal, Ms. Lewist
“Thanks, Mr. Black. You can leave now. I have a lot of work.”
Frank, feeling angry, sneered, turned and left. He couldn’t wait to see Angela’s downfall.
Angela checked the documents and, after arranging to meet the client in the evening, busied herself with other work
When it was time to leave, Angela took the documents and went straight to the restaurant where they had agreed to meet
As soon as Angela entered the private room, the man inside quickly stood up, cheerfully saying, “Ms. Lewis, please take a seat
Peter Wilson hadn’t expected Angela to be so beautiful. He couldn’t take his eyes off her and hide his desire. He thought Frank had really sent him a beauty.
Remembering what Frank had said over the phone, Peter couldn’t help feeling excited
Angela sat down two seats away from Peter, smiling, “Hello, Mr. Wilson.”
Dissatisfied with the distance, Peter moved next to Angela, leering at her.
‘He said, “Ms. Lewis, why be so formal? Though we haven’t met before, we are already friends now. Just call use Peter!”
Peter, over fifty and older than Paul, his face covered with wrinkles when he smiled, tried to get Angela to call him affectionately.
As he spoke, he grabbed Angela’s hand on the table.
The next second, he screamed, “Ah! Let got It hurts!”
Angela calmly released him. “Sorry, Mr. Wilson, I don’t like being touched”
Her apology was devoid of any real regret.
Peter, annoyed, thought for a moment and then smiled.
He picked up the already decanted red wine on the table and poured a glass for Angela. “How about this, Ms. Lewis? Drink this, and I’ll forget what just happened:
Angela raised an eyebrow, smiling. “Mr. Willson, drinking red wine is not fun at all. I’ll ask the waiter to bring some vodka.”
As Angela stood up to leave, Peter’s smile became a sneer, “Ms. Lewis, then I don’t think we need to continue discussing our partnership.
He slammed the wine glass on the table with anger.
Angela realized that Peter was just using the contract to take advantage of her. She said calmly, “Alright then, enjoy your meal, Mr. Wilson. Tll be leaving
Peter had initially intended to intimidate Angela but was caught off guard when she simply turned and left. He stood frozen for a few seconds before chasing after her.
“Wait” His loud voice drew the attention of those around him
Several prople on the other side saw Angela and Peter through the glass.

Chapter 18
Owen and his friends had come to have dinner together tonight, not expecting to run into Angela there.
go to become a boss. Then he began growing
They all knew Peter, who started in the fabric business and seized the opportunity a few years ago to arrogant and showy, a typical nouveau riche. Anyone decent looked down on him.
Seeing Kenneth’s displeased expression, Owen couldn’t help but whisper, “Kenneth, how did Angela know Peter? Peter is just a womanizer. Any woman he fools with ends tragically. He has a terrible reputation in Lithoria,”
Although he didn’t think Angela was good enough for Kenneth, he didn’t want her ruined by Peter.
Kenneth looked stern, his gaze fixed on Angela, deep in thought,
Unaware of the people nearby, Angela looked at Peter and said indifferently. “Mr. Wilson, is there anything else you need?”
Peter scoffed, “Angela, you’re just an employee from Empyria Group, Stop pretending! Even if I bang you right here, no one could stop me. Before
I lose my patience, just come with me. If you satisfy me, maybe I’ll sign the contract.
Angela raised an eyebrow. “Is that what Frank told you?”
Full of scorn and mockery, Peter retorted, “Does it matter what Mr. Black says? You tried to seduce me by dressing like this”
Angela was wearing a white strap dress with a suit jacket over it, her long hair slightly curled, looking gentle and elegant.
She looked down at her outfit, not understanding how this was seen as seducing him,
She said. “Mr. Wilson, I’m not interested in you. Watch your words.”
After saying this, Angela turned to leave, but Peter sneered, “Don’t think you can just come and go as you please!”
At that moment, two burly men, over 5 feet 9 inches tall, appeared around Angela, looking down at her imposingly.
Angela sneered, “Mr. Wilson, are you trying to force me to stay!”
Watching from behind the glass, Owen frowned and whispered. “Kenneth, if you don’t intervene. Peter will take Angela away.”
He thought Angela would definitely be taken away.
Kenneth’s eyes were cold. “Wait a bit longer.”
“Wait for what!”
Kenneth remained silent, watching Angela intently
He thought, ‘Anna, the founder of the Empyria Group, just returned not long ago, and Angela works there now. Could this really be a coincidence!
Peter glared at Angela, furious Take her back to my private room. I’ll make her regret
As he turned and walked toward the private room, planning how to play with Angela, he suddenly heard screams from behind. Before he could turn, he was kicked in the butt, sent flying and slamming against a wall.
Peter screamed, falling to the ground, in pain all over.
Watching from behind the glass, Owen was stunned, looking at Kenneth. “Angela is so skilled!”
He hadn’t seen clearly how Angela struck, and the two burly men were already on the ground:
And she had sent a man flying with one kick. He wondered if that was something a normal woman could do
Kenneth remained silent, his gaze on Angela growing colder.
He thought maybe he had never really known Angela.
Meanwhile, Angela slowly approached Peter with a cold smile.
Right now, all the mixed feelings in Peter’s mind vanish, leaving him with the single thought that Angela was the devil
Peter, now terrified, stammered. “Don’t come closer..or I call the police.
Seeing the panicked Pe
Peter, Angela remained emotionless. She walked over to him and coldly stepped on his chest.
Peter felt a sharp pain in his chest and vomited blood.
She caud, “You just said, you would make i
