My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 522 A Chance to Appease My Boss

Kenny gave a cold look at Fu Tingxi. Fu Tingxi lowered his head, looked serious as if he didn’t say those words earlier.

He still looked extremely calm.

But Gloria noticed that Fu Tingxi clasped both his hands tightly.

Gloria chuckled a bit. She thought that Fu Tingxi always had a strong mentality that didn’t even afraid of Kenny at all.

Kenny stood behind Gloria with one hand resting on the table. His gesture looked as if he was holding Gloria in his embrace.

He stretched out two fingers and tapped twice on the table, reminding Gloria, “Sign it.”

How can Gloria dare to sign.

Fu Tingxi is a renowned lawyer in Huyang City. He was appointed as Kenny’s private legal adviser. Once these documents were signed, there would become legally effective

For a company as big as Clarke Group, Kenny treated it like a child’s play. He just simply handed it to her as he wanted.

She didn’t even have a thought of Clarke Group before. But now, Kenny wanted to put Clarke Group in her hands. How would she dare to receive it.

Gloria didn’t know how to persuade him anymore. She frowned and called out his name, “Kenny Clarke!”

Kenny raised his brows, said in a low voice, “Fu Tingxi’s time is money. You delay a minute longer, then I have to pay him a minute longer. We still need to raise Tina and save every penny that we have.”

His tone was extremely serious, as if he really worried about losing any money.

Gloria knew it. He was teasing her.

After all of this, he still had time to tease her.

“Kenny, I won’t sign these documents. Clarke Group belongs to Clarke family’s property. How come you treat it as a child’s play, by simply handed it to me as you wanted?”

Kenny seemed to think her serious expression interesting, he smiled lightly before saying, “I never thought it as a child’s play. This is my dowry to you.”

Gloria was in a daze. It took her a while to find her own voice back.

She lowered down her voice, then asked him, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll have a change of heart in the future? What if I took all your money and runaway with another man?”

“Huh? I still remember what you used to say” Kenny paused for a while, then slowly said, “Is there any man that has a better prospect than Kenny Clarke in this entire Huyang City?”

Even Gloria herself almost forgot that she ever said it before.

It was too long ago when she said those words, when she spoke those words in front of the media.

Unexpectedly, he even remembered such an old story.

Kenny pulled her out of the memory, “Then I ask you now, is there any man with a better prospect than me in this entire Huyang City?”

Her answer was still the same.

No.

“Ehm!”

Fu Tingxi whose existence was temporarily ignored, cleared his throat, and trying to get both of their attention by showing his existence. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

He didn’t come here to watch these youngsters reminiscing about their past.

Gloria came to realize, there’s still another person in this room.

She glared at Kenny then turned towards Fu Tingxi.

Fu Tingxi sighed, “Do you want me to come again another time?”

Kenny replied by handling the pen into Gloria’s hand.

“Hurry up! I’m hungry.” After finished speaking, Kenny sat on the other side and signed together with Gloria.

Gloria still didn’t budge.

Kenny gave a fake cruel look at her, “If you don’t sign it, I won’t let you see Tina!.”

Gloria silently twitched the corner of her mouth. She felt that Kenny was particularly childish and boring sometimes.

Fu Tingxi also sat down and started organizing documents.

…..

There were a lot of documents that needed to be signed. It was almost one o’clock when the signing was completed.

After they finished signing the documents, Fu Tingxi left.

Before Fu Tingxi left, Gloria invited him to have lunch together.

“Thanks for the invitation. I still need to deal with a lot of things. Please invite me again next time. If Mrs. Clarke personally cook….”

Before he even completed his sentence, Kenny casually took a book and threw it at Fu Tingxi, “You had better not think too much.”

Fu Tingxi dodged it closely and spoke to Gloria with a particularly upright tone, “Look, if he treats me like this. I wouldn’t dare to eat with him.”

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly left with his briefcase after saying, “Good bye” before Kenny became angry again.

Gloria looked at the closed door in his office, then turned to Kenny, “Can you be more courteous to them?”

“Even when I’m not courteous, they still dare to mess with me. If I’m more courteous with them, don’t you think they’ll become more pompous?”

Gloria couldn’t find anything to say.

Both of them went out for lunch.

Both of them used the elevator to go down, Kenny was holding Gloria’s hand, and they walked out from elevator. Those receptionists turned stiff again.

Kenny turned and looked at them, then knitted his brows.

Those receptionists came back to their senses, nodded respectfully, “President.”

Kenny’s gaze swept over each one of them then coldly said, “Anything else?”

The receptionists looked at each other. After few seconds, they understand what Kenny meant.

They all bent over and bowed towards Gloria, “Ms. Taylor.”

“Hmph!” Upon hearing that, Kenny sneered a bit.

He was scary in a strange way, that he scared those few receptionists off.

Gloria pulled his hand, gesturing him to forget about it.

It was not a big deal in the first place. He should keep his reputation as a company’s president.

One of the girls with quicker sense immediately called out, “Good day, Young Lady!”

The other girls that witnessed how Kenny’s expression got better, immediately called out, “Good day, Young Lady!”

Kenny’s expression turned dull and took Gloria away.

Outside of Clarke Group, Gloria was in a daze, looked at her hands that was clasped together in Kenny’s hand.

This felt like the first time, she and Kenny straightforwardly appeared at Clarke Group.

When they were in the car, Gloria asked him, “How do you deal with the news?”

“I have my ways.” Kenny buckled up his seat belt and was about to lean over to help Gloria with hers.

Gloria realized what he’s doing, she refused, “I’ll do it myself.”

“Won’t you give me a chance to appease my boss?” Kenny asked with a deep voice, put one of his hand on the back of Gloria’s seat, while the other hand was on the car door, and his eyes lowered on her.

The car was a confined space. Gloria was trapped in his arms and stopped reacting for a moment, “What...appease?”

“ How do you want me to appease you?” Kenny said, before lowering his head, and kissed her ear.

It was only a light kiss, a kiss as light as a touch, but it could make Gloria fluttered.

She shivered a bit and withdrew, “Be serious.”

“I am your employee now. You are the one who pays my salary. I am appeasing my boss hoping that she will give me a raise to make a living. Am I not serious enough?”

Kenny spoke the words attentively. But in Gloria’s ears she felt like she was being poked fun at.
