Angelo plucked herself up when she thought of the captain's words. She thought about it before talking to Drake, "Thanks, Drake."
"Yeah," Drake answered calmly.
That was awkward. He must still be mad at me, she thought.
With the thoughts, she decided to say something good to Drake. Anyway, he saved her.
"Drake," she started, sounding aggrieved.
"Yeah," Drake answered, puzzled, but didn't hear Angelo anymore.
By then, he found that Angelo was back behind. He frowned and turned back, only to see a pair of watery eyes, he stayed.
It worked, Angelo thought. So, she gave a more pathetic look.
Ivy's little trick did work on men, she thought, and showed a more depressing look in her eyes. She was mimicking the usual attitude Ivy had towards others.
Then curling lashes covered the watery eyes. Looking at them, Drake felt pain in his heart.
