“You’re not taking care of it now. It doesn’t mean you won’t get married. Jordy, failing Gloria is the biggest mistake you’ve made in your life. I have done everything within my power and will not urge you two to be together again. I don’t want to lose Gloria because of you.”
Jordy’s pupils contracted, and his face turned sullener.
Gloria was relieved to hear that and curled her lips. “Thank you, Karen.”
Karen’s heart tingled. Gloria thanked her… She talked like this only when she felt relaxed.
Alas…
She had lost her granddaughter-in-law.
It broke her heart.
Karen grasped Gloria’s hand and said, “You have my word. No matter what happens, I will always protect you. As for what happened this time, I’ll help you clarify it!”
“Karen.”
Two voices rang out at the same time.
They glanced at each other.
Karen looked at the two who was each other’s soulmate. It was a shame that they got divorced.
As Jordy pursed his lips, Gloria whispered, “Since it has happened, there is no need to clarify anything. I’m content to hear your promise.”
The veins on Jordy’s forehead popped.
Noticing the change in Karen’s expression, Gloria continued with a smile, “Every time I get close to Jordy, something unexpected will happen, and I will be in a difficult situation. In my opinion, if I stop associating with him, I’ll be more like myself and no longer get bogged down by the title of Mrs. Collins.”
Gloria said this because Karen and she were close. She also hoped that Karen would keep her promise.
Karen’s effort to get them together had given her too much pressure.
Jordy darted a penetrating look at Gloria. He was trying to see through her thoughts.
Unfortunately…
There wasn’t the slightest desire in her clear eyes.
Karen closed her eyes and sighed. “I see. I will stay out of your business. Gloria, starting today, you will be my granddaughter.”
Gloria smiled and said, “Good.”
Pursing his lips, Jordy had enough of the subject and continued with his speech that had been interrupted by Gloria. “I won’t let the matter ferment. I’ll take care of it.” From NôvelDrama.Org.
Sarcasm was distinct in Gloria’s eyes. How?
With Olivia and Joseph involved in it, he would make a mess.
Karen was not convinced either. She sighed and said, “Forget it, do whatever you see fit. I will not meddle in it.”
She could tell that Gloria didn’t want her to interfere.
Jordy hummed and stopped talking.
Gloria chatted with Karen for a while, checked the time, and said with a smile, “It’s getting late, and I have some files to sort out. I should get going.”
“Do you have to work at such late hours? You should take care of yourself. Both of you are like this, thinking you’re young and squandering your health!”
Gloria nodded in agreement. “You’re right about that.”
“Forget it, you can go now, both of you. It’s time for me to get some rest.” Karen heaved a sigh and waved her hand.
