Angela nodded in acknowledgment."May," Dexter called out coldly.A middle-aged woman with a slightly plump build quickly appeared from the kitchen. "Mr. Bamford, is there something you need?""Get her something to eat," Dexter said coldly.The maid, May Weasley, was quick. In about 20 minutes, she returned with a bowl of pasta. There were also two small plates of side dishes—one with meat and the other with vegetables.Angela's stomach growled at the delicious aroma. She thanked May and began eating slowly.Her eating style was somewhat unrefined, akin to a hamster nibbling on food. While she wasn't particularly graceful, it was still pleasant enough to watch her eat.Dexter observed her closely. Inexplicably, his irritation seemed to ease to some extent.After finishing her meal, Angela stood up and said, "I have some things to take care of tonight. It should be fine if I come back tomorrow morning, right?"She had only been dealing with Fiona earlier, so whether she stayed

Chapter 62

Angela fell silent. She'd thought he said he wouldn't be angry, yet here he was, doing just that.She fought back the anger rising in her chest and said coldly, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave." She grabbed her laptop, ready to leave the space that still carried his presence."Change the bandages!" Dexter snapped.At that moment, the maid carefully approached, holding a tray with his medication."I have a strong grip. I'm afraid it'll hurt you," Angela said."Just hurry up," Dexter replied. He unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a plain white undershirt, his muscular arms, and a glimpse of his chest and abs.Angela's gaze lingered for a moment, and she found herself unable to look away.However, his injury was severe. This was the first time she had seen a wound so deep.As she removed the bandages, her hands trembled. Cleaning the blood around the wound was even harder with her shaking hands. Her hands wouldn't stop trembling as she applied the medicine, causing some of i

Chapter 63

When Angela entered the CEO's office, Dexter was still tied up with work. He seemed to be in a meeting in the small conference room next door, and the atmosphere was so tense that she could feel it even through the door.Just as she was about to open the lunchbox she'd brought, she suddenly noticed a familiar figure—Elena."Hi, Ms. Graham, what a coincidence," Elena greeted with a bright smile."Are you here to deliver lunch too?" Angela asked.The large bags Elena was carrying seemed to hold a feast.Elena nodded. "I'm concerned about Dexter's health. If it weren't for him that day, I might have—""You can wait for him here. I'll leave," Angela said firmly, grabbing her bag to leave.After all, Dexter would still have his meal even without her.Just as she reached the underground parking garage, Dexter called her. His voice came through with irritation, as if he were angry. "What are you doing? Where's my food?"Angela sighed, took a moment to calm herself, and then pressed d

Chapter 64

Angela slowly took out the meal she had brought, following the meal plan provided by Dexter's nutritionist. It consisted of a quinoa salad with roasted vegetables, grilled chicken breast with a light vinaigrette, steamed asparagus, and fresh tomato soup."Spoon and fork," Dexter said, extending his hand as if it were expected.Angela glanced at him, realizing he was seriously about to eat her food. She couldn't hold back anymore. "The food is cold. How about you heat it up before eating?"Dexter paused, staring at her. "Don't you have a brain? Why didn't you heat it up at the cafeteria before bringing it over?" His mood seemed to have soured, and his voice was sharper than usual.In the past, Angela would have immediately apologized and tried to smooth things over. But today, she slammed her spoon down onto the table, making a loud sound."Do I not have a brain? What about you?" she snapped, her frustration boiling over. "If you've got someone else bringing you food, why do you

"Oh, so this is the legendary Mrs. Bamford. It's a pleasure to meet you," the man said enthusiastically, extending his hand to Angela.Dexter gave him a pointed look. "Go heat your food," he said flatly.The man immediately looked embarrassed and turned to put his meal in the microwave.Angela kept quiet and maintained her smile. However, deep down, she was displeased with Dexter introducing her as his wife in public.Just as she was about to leave after lunch, he insisted on taking her to the nearby mall to go shopping."What are you doing?" Angela tried to pull away, but he wouldn't let go.Before she knew it, he'd already dragged her into the elevator, heading straight for the women's section on the third floor.They'd been married for over three years, yet she'd never had the privilege of Dexter personally taking her out to buy clothes. Her wardrobe had always been chosen by a stylist according to Dexter's preferences. Of course, the expensive custom-made gowns weren't her

Chapter 66

Angela was left speechless. She couldn't care less about these material things. If Dexter wanted to show off his money, that was his business. "There aren't that many options, but if any of you like something, feel free to take it," she said casually, leaning back into her chair and pulling out her tablet to check on her work.The room fell silent. Everyone looked at Angela in disbelief, unsure if they had misheard her. "Angela, what did you just say?" Clara was the first to react, staring at Angela in shock."You heard me the first time." Angela shrugged. With that, she turned her chair around and leaned back as if settling in to watch the drama unfold. The next second, the women erupted into chaos. "That's mine! I want that dress!""That one's the latest design! I want it!""I want the white one! It's mine!"In mere seconds, all 12 dresses were snatched up. "If only there were some for guys…" Alan commented with a sigh. George, who had just been aggressively pushe

Chapter 67

"How long are you planning to stay here?" Angela was fuming. It seemed that Dexter was planning to stay at her house for a while."Didn't you hear what Grandpa said? He said I can only go back when you're ready to return home." Dexter replied casually. He leaned back on the couch with a shrug and a helpless expression."Fine, you can stay! But I'm warning you, you're only allowed in the living room and the guest bedroom. Don't even think of going anywhere else, especially not the second floor!" Angela retorted coldly, the frustration clear in her voice.Dexter shrugged again. "You say it as if I want to stay here."Angela was at a loss for words. "If that's the case, why don't you just explain to Grandpa that we…"Just before she could finish her sentence, she realized that the maids hadn't left yet. So, she quickly swallowed back her words and shot a glare at Dexter.Dexter's face darkened instantly. He ordered everyone to leave in a low voice.Once they were alone, he stood up

Chapter 68

To Angela's surprise, it was Erica who had arrived."What are you doing here?" Angela asked coldly. She maintained her grip on both sides of the door—she had no intention of letting someone she disliked into her house. Erica was also a bit surprised to see Angela. She'd thought Angela wouldn't be back until later."I'm here to deliver some documents to Mr. Bamford," Erica replied, trying to keep her irritation in check. She added in a low voice, "I see you've gotten better at your game, Ms. Graham. You've managed to get Mr. Bamford to come here—impressive."Her words were laced with mockery. Angela didn't feel the need to explain herself. Instead, she reached out for the documents. Erica immediately stopped her. "These are confidential files from Bamford Co. You're just an outsider. How dare you try to take them?" She deliberately stressed the word "outsider".Angela rolled her eyes inwardly. She couldn't care less about what Erica said.Just then, Erica pushed the door

Chapter 69

"Mr. Bamford?" Erica's eyes widened in disbelief.Angela was also a little confused. Nevertheless, she couldn't care less about Dexter's sudden change in attitude."300 thousand dollars. Not a penny less." Angela crossed her arms. A hint of mockery flashed across her gaze as she looked at Erica.300 thousand dollars wasn't nearly enough to compensate for the humiliation Erica had caused her in the past, but it was enough to vent her anger. "Mr. Bamford, I don't have that much money on hand right now…" Erica gritted her teeth in frustration. Under the pressure from Dexter, she could only suppress her anger and shoot Angela a sharp glare. "I'll have my sister bring the money," Erica added, drawing out each word. Luckily for her, Elena was just around the corner. She arrived at Villa Heights within 20 minutes.After hearing about the situation, Elena was slightly taken aback. "Ms. Graham, you claim that this crystal vase is worth 300 thousand dollars, but do you have any proo

Chapter 70

"Mr. Bamford, about that event you mentioned…" "Don't even think about it!" Dexter stood up abruptly, ready to storm out, leaving Angela staring at his retreating figure. He was furious. Initially, he thought that Angela would feel angry or disappointed because he had comforted Elena. However, to his surprise, Angela was only focused on the benefits he could bring to her. Did she really think of DawnStar Design to be that important? What a joke! He'd rather invite any no-name design company to the event before allowing anyone from DawnStar to set foot into Bamford Co.!Angela's smile faded, and her expression darkened instantly. "Just so that you know, you're staying at my place for free, living off of me, and even letting others come in here to stir up trouble—and I haven't said a word about it," Angela retorted.Dexter stopped in his tracks and sneered coldly. "Then enlighten me. How much is that so-called antique crystal vase of yours actually worth?""Ten thousan
