Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 945

Richard did not resent his mother because he knew it was tough for her, and she had no choice but to do what she did to help his granddad.

Compared to his father’s side of the family, his mother’s side of the family was even bigger. His uncle was the vice president of a company, and his granddad held an important position comparable to that of his grandpa.

Nonetheless, Richard never spoke about his family. Whatever he achieved today was all due to his hard work. At times, he wished he had an ordinary family so his parents would be by his side and lead a peaceful life.

When he left the conference room, his four subordinates were drinking coffee in the lounge beside it. When they saw him leave, they gulped. It was obvious Richard was in a bad mood.

“Should we ask Miss Meyers to comfort him?”

“It’s probably better to let him have some time alone.”

Indeed, that was what Richard wanted. He exited the base’s entrance to get some fresh air outside. Not far away, Ariel spotted him.

Wherever Richard stood, he would garner attention especially since he was tall and attractive. His charming aura made women flock after him with just a glance.

Ariel tidied herself up a bit and gracefully walked toward Richard. “What a coincidence meeting you here, Captain Lloyd!” she said with a sweet smile and tucked her hair behind her ear.

Richard turned his head and looked at her. “Can I help you, Miss Graham?”

“I heard the view over there is pretty nice, but I’m afraid to go alone. Do you have time to accompany me for a walk?” She looked at him pleadingly and tried to act cute.

He pointed his finger at a passing teammate, and the young man ran over immediately.

“Captain Lloyd.”

“Keep Miss Graham company and go for a walk there,” Richard ordered.
