With brows tightly knitted together, he moved to untangle her hair from his belt.
It was at that moment someone pushed open the door. Four pairs of eyes were immediately greeted with the shocking sight of the two in a compromising position.
The men cursed themselves for their bad timing.
Moreover, when were Richard and Angela so close? They were even making out now!
“We will be back later, sir. Please, continue,” Will said, pushing the other three out of the room before swiftly closing it behind him.
The other three men had wanted to spend a few more seconds looking at the couple. It was rare for them to see Richard acting all friendly with a girl. How they wished they could have kept staring.
Angela was so embarrassed. It was clear the four men had misunderstood the situation.
Richard did not care about what his subordinates thought though. His broad hands were gently untangling her hair from his belt. As the strands were wrapped tightly around the belt, one mistake and she would be hurt.
“Are you done yet?” she awkwardly asked.
“Soon.” His fingers were unraveling her hair, one strand at a time.
She buried her face in her palms from the embarrassment. How could she look the others in the eye now?
Finally, her hair was free. As soon as she could move, she shot to her feet. Her hair tumbled wildly across her back, emphasizing the innocent beauty of her demure face.
“Trevor and the others must have mistaken what we were doing for something else. Can you clarify things to them?” she asked.
