Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 194

After informing the receptionists in the lobby, Angela and Zack waited at the lounge.

Zack couldn't sit still and kept looking around. "Angie, the lounge is so big—even bigger than our living room! But where is she? How long are we going to have to wait?"

Angela replied casually, "She's waiting for all the employees to see how embarrassed we are first. Then, she'll come down."

Zack looked shocked. "What? Why would she do that?"

"How did two sharp and capable people like Bill and Judy end up having a son as foolish as you?" Angela asked while looking at the goofy man in front of her. She couldn't help but think he was endearingly silly.

Zack scratched his head awkwardly. "What do you know? I'm smart but might just be playing the fool."

As expected, Angela was right. Before long, a few staff members started passing by outside the meeting room. They quickly glanced at Angela and Zack, whispering among themselves before quickly moving on.

Some of them spoke loudly enough for the two to clearly hear their blatant comments.

Angela remained unfazed, remaining calm and composed. It was as if the world could collapse around her, and she still wouldn't flinch.

Zack, on the other hand, couldn't sit still. Angrily, he stood up and shouted toward the door, "What nonsense are you spewing? My sister didn't harm anyone!"

Angela sighed in exasperation before calling Zack to come back inside.

After ten or so minutes, Elena walked out, with her heels clicking against the floor.

It had been a long time since they'd met, but Elena still looked the same—pretty and elegant.
