Chapter 1246 Her Smile Faded from Her Face
Rachel didn’t seem to regain her composure until Jordy stopped beside them. Pausing for a moment, she looked up at Jordy with a smile on her lips.
“Mr. Collins, why are you here? What a coincidence.”
Obviously, it was not a coincidence.
Gloria’s gaze fell on Jordy, only to see him look rather calm and hear him reply calmly.
“Well, I have a project to develop here, so I’m here to have a look.”
Rachel was wordless.
What a lame excuse!
Only one village was located here. The only project to be developed here was the one she would work on with Gloria.
But Jordy was not ashamed to say that he was here to look at the project site. Wasn’t it ridiculous?
Gloria was also wordless.
She was not certain about why Jordy was there. Though she had vague speculation, she didn’t think it was right, feeling that she thought too much of herself.
She decided to put aside that speculation. What Jordy was going to do had nothing to do with her.
“So that’s it.” Rachel managed a smile. Jordy gave such a lame excuse that Rachel was at a loss for what to say.
When he arrived, he stood beside them, without speaking or leaving. Gloria glanced at him, having an odd feeling, “You’re here to check the project site, aren’t you?”
She didn’t want Jordy to stay here, or she couldn’t have a good chat with Rachel.
“There’s no hurry.”
With that, Jordy stood motionlessly, as if he hadn’t gotten Gloria’s implication.
Both Gloria and Rachel were rendered speechless.
They looked strangely at Jordy, but the latter didn’t feel embarrassed at all.
Rachel could only compromise. She took a deep breath and looked at Gloria with a smile. “I’ve shown you the general project site. If you’re satisfied with it, you can reach me and we can talk about it.”
Gloria nodded. “Okay.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
That was all Rachel wanted to say. It was a business project between Roberts Group and White Group. Jordy, as the outsider, was in no position to know about it. And she didn’t intend to tell him about it, either.
“It’s late. You should go back,” Rachel said, rather relaxed.
She would like to see what Jordy would do if they left right now.
Would he pretend to stay here?
Gloria had nothing else to say and nodded at Rachel. “Alright.”
She wanted to ignore Jordy and left, but… what if Rachel found they were just pretending to be a couple and told it to Karen? She froze for a moment and finally looked at Jordy before saying, “When do you plan to leave?”
“You stay to wait for me for a while,” his expressionless voice said.
Though unwilling, Gloria nodded.
Rachel was vexed, but she managed a smile and said, “Well, I’m leaving first.”
Gloria nodded politely. “Goodbye.”
Jordy also nodded, but he said nothing.
Rachel turned to leave. With her back to them, her smile faded from her face. She was expectant to meet him when he was not around her. But now, she only felt a pang. The man she was madly in love with was right before her, but she didn’t dare to spare an extra glance at him.
