Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 358

Dexter's voice reflected heartache, disappointment, and helplessness.

Angela felt intense pain in her heart. She looked up and briefly saw his red eyes before he turned and ran out the door. The door was wide open, and his scent faded away with the wind.

She stayed like that for a while and took time to decide her next move. In the end, she decided not to dwell on it anymore. It was clear that she wasn't mistaken. Yet, her words were just a bit too harsh.

He simply didn't understand her, nor did he need to. She felt complicated.

…

Angela spent almost a week in the hospital, and during that time, Joel visited once. When they finally sat down together, they engaged in an open conversation about the company's future plans.

Their discussion flowed easily, and they completely avoided any mention of Bill. Angela and Joel enjoyed each other's company and realized that they had connected far later than they should have.

Joel not only lifted the restrictions on Graham Group within the Otril market but also proactively proposed a collaborative agenda. He invited Angela to visit Yedren in Otril next week, with the entire process expected to take around a month.

Angela readily accepted, expressing her enthusiasm for this invaluable opportunity.

Upon her discharge from the hospital, she returned to work and immersed herself in her tasks for several days. Only on the day before her business trip abroad did she realize she hadn't informed her family.

Angela went to a rehabilitation center first. After some time apart, Zack had noticeably improved.

Yet, perhaps after staying in the center too long, his personality had changed. He was no longer as lively and cheerful. Even when they were together, there was an awkward tension between them.
