Character history

Introduced as the wife of judge David Raymond and a friend of C.C. Capwell, Angela arrives in town in July 1991. After reading an interesting article by Warren Lockridge, Angela falls in love with him, and even though her marriage is about to end, Angela still won't let her husband date Julia Wainwright. With time, Angela and Warren developed a relationship, but things got worse when Angela witnessed Warren with a gun in his hand, and Amado Gonzales lying dead on the floor.

Keen on proving that Warren is innocent, Angela decides to investigate the case on her own. Angela soon realizes that Craig Hunt was missing during the party, and realizes that he is the murderer. Craig finds her and forces her to write a suicide letter lying that she murdered Amado, but Warren, along with Cruz Castillo, arrives in time to save Angela from death. Things finally returned to normal when Angela divorced her husband and continued her relationship with Warren.

However, Angela soon found a rival in Cassandra Benedit, who started getting interested in Warren, and she poisoned Angela's soup to get rid of her, but Angela survived. Cassandra soon found out that Angela accidentally killed her sister Marilyn and she decided to blackmail her, but a visiting ghost of Marilyn prompted Angela to continue her life without any guilt. Angela broke up with Warren and then found love again with Ted Capwell, but their happiness was disturbed by Ted's true love, Katrina Rukyer. After Katrina left town, Ted pretended to be in love with Lily Blake to make Angela jealous. Angela was then romanced by Ted's father C.C. Capwell, but their engagement was broken off when C.C.'s true love, his ex-wife Sophia Capwell was widowed again. Without anyone with her, Angela left town just before the end of the series.
