Chapter 202 Si Chengyu was more important.
Gloria Taylor was dragged out of the building through the back door by Carl Cook.
A black car was there waiting and a bodyguard opened the door for them.
Carl put Gloria on the back seat and then he looked around to make sure no one was watching before getting in the car.
Sitting in the front seat, Carl felt relived for bringing her out safely, but when he turned to Gloria, his heart suspended again.
“Gloria, you okay?”
Carl realized how stupid his question was, right after his words finished.
With such a huge accident, there was no way Gloria could be okay.
She and Kenny were living happily as a couple, but suddenly a wedding photo of her husband with another woman came out of nowhere, making her a mistress.
Let alone Gloria, Carl as a man would find it shocking and painful.
“Don’t worry. Trust Ken. He will solve the problem.”
Seeing Gloria sitting there speechless with a pale face, Carl was worried and tried to comfort her.
Carl scratched his head fretfully for his word comforted nothing.
“Where is Ken?” Gloria finally opened her mouth.
“He...” Carl hesitated but did not lie to her. “He went to the outskirts of the city and now is coming back on his way. He will be back after about...an hour.”
Gloria laid back to the seat, replying nothing.
Carl shut his mouth as well because he knew a thousand words of comfort from his mouth would be nothing compared to one of Kenny’s.
...
The car went directly to Carl’s house located in a fancy housing estate.
“Luo Ying knew where your house was, and now it must be surrounded by a lot of paparazzi...” Carl explained to Gloria as he opened the door.
Carl rarely treated a girl with such a gentle attitude except for Edith.
“Thanks.” Gloria followed him into the house.
“Tea? Or something else?”
Gloria shook her head but Carl still got her a cup of hot tea.
After a few minutes of silence, she reached to him and said.
“My cell.”
“Come on, You don’t need that. Let’s um...Let’s chat, shall we?” Carl knew that netizen would not leave her alone.
And before Gloria said something more, the bell rang.
“It might be Ken.” Carl got up to the door in a hurry.
A sense of expectation crossed Gloria’s mind.
She turned her head to the door, but it was Edith.
She walked in with big steps and again, customs on. Her hair was a mess and hairpins were in it pell- mell.
“Gloria!” She ran to Gloria, opened and shut her mouth, and then squeezed four words out. “It will be fine.”
Gloria nodded slightly.
Edith watched her closely to check on her situation, but Gloria got only her face pale while no else emotions shown.
That might be the worst situation.
Edith looked at Carl, and he shook his head to her quietly.
They could do and say nothing but sat there with her.
Kenny Clarke came after an hour later. Carl opened the door and Kenny went directly to Gloria, but his steps slowed before he got near to her.
“Gloria.” He bent to a squat in front of her and grabbed her hands. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“You came.” There was no sign of tears on her face.
“Sure.” Kenny nodded lightly.
He looked at her, then to the floor, and then to her again.
“Trust me.”
Gloria responded to nothing.
She always trusted him for everything, but it was nothing about trust this time.
Hollow and empty were her eyes, sticking into his.
“Was it him?” She opened her mouth after a while.
Carl and Edith looked at each other, wondering who Gloria was talking about, yet Kenny knew it exactly.
Si Chengyu.
Anne Taylor once got in touch with him and was almost brought into the entertainment industry by Si. It would make total sense if Si was behind this with Anne.
Hearing her question, Kenny could not dare to look her in the eyes for the first time. His teeth grating, head aside, and fists clenched.
“Ha...” Gloria sneered.
“Even now, you still didn’t believe that he would turn on you.” Gloria took a slight pause. “Though he dragged me into this mess time and again, and though he was behind all of this, he is still your beloved brother...”
“I’ll end this. I promise.” Kenny interrupted her and said firmly.
But it finally lit her up.
“The hell to your promise! And to this marriage! We were not married anyway!”
“The wedding photo. I didn’t know it at all.” Kenny explained.
Gloria drew her hands and went silent.
There was no way Kenny was not aware of what Si had done if Gloria was able to think it through.
As for Kenny, though he was known as ruthless, to those accompanying him, Kenny was the opposite of that.
He did not want to believe the truth that Si betrayed him, so he gave him chances over and over again, instead of talking to him directly.
Kenny was not a soft and weak man, but he cared too much of his brother.
Yet every chance he gave to Si was built on the damage to Gloria.
To her, that meant Si was more important than she was.
While as for Carl and Edith who heard their conversation was both astonished.
“It was...Si Chengyu?” Edith could not believe what she heard.
“But why?” And Carl, too.
“I’m tired Ed.” Gloria looked at Edith. “Can I go to your place?”
“Sure you can.” Edith stood up immediately.
