Chapter 214 “He only did what she requested.”
Gloria Taylor began to remain within doors and Kenny Clarke went to work in Clarke Group every morning and back home with documents to accompany her at afternoon. In fact, Gloria always showed a poker face to him when he came home. They either kept silent or quarrel. However, when qurreled, only Gloria provoked Kenny while Kenny never cared what she did nor said.
“Aunt Hu said that you didn’t eat at lunch?” Kenny Clarke came in and went straight to Gloria Taylor who was focusing on writing script, as if she did not hear his words. Kenny Clarke was angry and closed her laptop, saying with a warning tone, “Gloria Taylor!”
Gloria tried to move his hand away but she could not and then looked at him, “Come on, I haven’t finished yet.”
But he did not move away his hands and said indifferently, “Did you hear me?”
“I am not feeling to eat.” She went to sit on the sofa which was farthest from him. Kenny Clarke sipped his lips and his eyes shrank tightly, as if he was enduring or ready to burst. Both of them were suffering recently and Gloria was indifferent to Kenny while he did not let her go outside, neither of them were winner. After a while, Kenny Clarke compromised, “Let’s go for a walk?”
Gloria Taylor refused him directly, “No.”
Kenny took a deep breath and said, “It’s not up to you.”
He said fiercely, which frightened Gloria Taylor and she trembled subconsciously. Seeing this, Kenny Clarke was more annoyed and went out.
Aunt Hu carried a tray came over and there was a bowl of porridge with a few dishes in the tray. Seeing Kenny Clarke looked bad, she asked, “Did you quarrel again?”
Kenny Clarke pinched his brows and said with clenched teeth, “She just want to piss me off.”
Aunt Hu rarely saw he was so emotional, which surprised her and she laughed. She served Kenny and his mother when she was young in Clarke family and it could be said that she watched him grow up. But Kenny was sent abroad because of the kidnapping case and then she left Clarke family but she had been concerned about him. Kenny Clarke was gentle and polite when he was a kid and was spoiled by his elders. She could not believe that the indifferent man in front of her was Kenny Clarke when he found her on the other days before. Aunt Hu pervaded him, “Mrs. Clarke is an independent person and also a little bit stubborn, so she is not happy that you keep her at home.” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
She noticed his expression when she said but could not tell whether he listened to her. Kenny Clarke was a person that always thought a lot in mind. He suddenly said, “She would leave if I don’t do that.”
“What happened? Where is she going?” Aunt Hu was confused.
Although there were contradictions between them, Aunt Hu could feel that they still cared about each other. And then Kenny did not say too much.
Gloria Taylor was a stubborn person and she could not tolerate any flaws in a relationship. Kenny indulged Si Chengyu so much that Gloria was involved in so badly, which made her think that he used her and let her be surrounded by gossip. However, it was the truth and Kenny could not deny it.
Si Chengyu was abnormal and plus the words that Mayo Taylor had said, if the case of his mother was related to Manley Clarke, so as her son, Si Chengyu would have something to do with the thing happened that year. Kenny Clarke had anticipated that it would have an impact on Gloria Taylor but the important information would be missed if he stopped immediately. In the end, he decided to find out the case about his mother. Sometimes he wished that Gloria Taylor could be a little more innocent, so that she would be inseparable from him and he could put right before she found out even if he did something wrong. However, during this time, the series of her reactions and actions were proving that she had the thought to leave but he would not let her go.
As long as he thought that he could not see her when he returned home, he felt that he was in an ice cellar. He thought for a long time but did not even come up with a workable solution and there were other men who was chasing Gloria Taylor outside. Kenny had no idea, which was like a traveler on the verge of death. Suddenly he got an idea that she would never leave him as long as she was pregnant. Gloria Taylor did not get much love from her parents and relatives since she was kid, she certainly would not let her kids to be as the same as herself and would give her children a complete family. Therefore, she would not leave him as long as they had children. Kenny Clarke was indecisive when he looked at her more and more indifferent eyes but he would get his mind fixed again when he thought about the children.
“Kenny.” Gloria Taylor called him.
He stunned and felt it might be hallucinating cause she did not take the initiative to talk to him during this time. Kenny did not turn back and Gloria said again, “Didn’t you just say you are taking me out for a walk this afternoon?”
Kenny Clarke turned back and saw her standing by the door, then he nodded and said, “Okay.”
“Wait a minute, I’m going to change my clothes.” Gloria Taylor said indifferently and smiled triumphantly after going back room, then she took out her phone and called Edith Hall, “I just said to Kenny, so where do we meet?”
Edith Hall pondered for a moment and said, “We need to pretend to meet by chance and we can go supermarket, the mall or cinema.”
“Okay.” Gloria Taylor had been holding back at home and she felt so bad. And Kenny Clarke even did not let Edith come in to see her. Gloria did not know whether she should admire his vigilance or pity herself but the only good thing was that Kenny Clarke only did what she requested.
