Chapter 60: Revenge on her
Chapter 60: Revenge on her
Gloria had been thinking about cooking for “Leon”. After all, that's what she promised him.
But ever since Gloria walked into the mall, Gloria had been dragged along by them to look at this and try that.
As it was getting dark outside, Gloria made an excuse. "I'm so tired, and let's find a place to rest."
Then they found a place to drink.
When Gloria took out her cell phone, she saw two missed calls from“Leon”.
She thought "Leon" was not patient at all, so she didn't expect him to call her twice, while she could even imagine his angry face that he found it impossible to get through after he called her the second time.
Gloria stood up. "I'm sorry, I have to go back. Thank you today, and I'll treat you to dinner another day."
Outside the mall, she called "Leon" as she walked toward the bus stop. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After only a few rings, the phone was answered.
"Where are you?"
"Leon" had a deep voice, and when he's in a bad mood, his voice would sound gloomy.
Gloria felt her neck cold.
She reached out, touched her neck, and she said. "I'm still out, and I'll be right back. If you're hungry, get yourself something to eat."
He repeated. "I asked where you are."
There was impatience and anger in his voice that he could not hide at all.
Gloria turned to look at the mall, and then she told "Leon" the name of the mall.
Since "Leon" threw away the rare black card in front of her last time, she dared not mess with this rich young master any more.
Gloria turned back, walked to the mall again, and waited for "Leon".
She was waiting in front of the mall, and she didn't wait long before she saw Leon's car.
She was about to go, when she heard someone talking to her behind her. "Gloria, you're still here?"
Gloria turning back stiffly, she saw that the people standing behind her were the colleagues she had been shopping with.
"Yes, I am still..."
Gloria was interrupted by "Leon" before she could finish speaking.
"Gloria, get in." Kenny drove up next to her, stopped the car, pulled down the car window and looked at her deadpan.
Her colleagues looked shocked in unison: (⊙o⊙)…
Gloria thought it would be bad for her.
Gloria turning to look at ''Leon'', she said with a forced smile. ''I'm younger than you, but I'm your sister- in-law anyway.''
Kenny tilted his head a little, he glancing at Gloria's colleagues behind her.
He raised his eyebrows, his voice sounding impatient. "Get in."
As Gloria sensed that he began to feel impatient again, she was afraid he was going to make trouble again, so she turned to her colleagues behind her, saying. "He's my husband's cousin. He picked me up on the way, so I'm leaving. Goodbye."
Not daring to stay any longer, she pulled the car door open and got on.
As "Leon" started the engine, Gloria looking through the rearview mirror, she could still see her female colleagues arguing passionately...
Gloria sighing, turned to "Leon". "Why did you drive here so fast? Are you doing anything around here?"
"Leon" ignored her.
Gloria looked out of the window, she didn't want to talk to him yet.
…
When Gloria got home, Gloria went to the kitchen to cook.
These days, she had got familiar with Leon's favorite flavor, as he was a lover of spicy food.
When they had eaten, they returned to their own rooms.
After Gloria took a bath, she's video-chatting with Edith in bed.
Edith was dressed in ancient clothes, and behind her was an antique building.
Gloria asked her. "You're still in Cinema City?"
"Yes, I'm in a night shoot." Edith ran to a lonely corner, whispering to her. "Do you know who I'm working with today?"
"Who?" Gloria suddenly thought of something, saying. "It can never be Si Chengyu? Didn't he go abroad to study?"
"It's him!" Edith’s voice sounded excited. "The director seemed to know Movie King, Si Chengyu, so the director asked him to be a guest performer. I happen to be working with him, so I'm shaking all over. What can I do?"
Gloria compressed her lips, said in a low voice. "I don't know, as I'm nervous, too."
Si Chengyu was the youngest Grand Slam Movie King of all time, while Gloria had loved him for eight years.
The voice came from the other end of the phone. "Edith, come and work now!"
"I'll be right there." Edith answered, and she said to Gloria. "I will go to work first, and I will help you find Si Chengyu for his autograph. I may not get his nude pictures, but I will try my best. "
When she finished speaking, she turned off the video.
Gloria,“…” She's not as creepy as Edith!
…
The next day
When Gloria arrived at the office, she felt that the women she was with yesterday were looking at her, and they looked a little strange.
She had expected such a scene in the first place, so she did not care much about it.
Probably as Sun Zhenghua was punished by Gloria, Sun Zhenghua was afraid of Gloria, so over the next few days, Sun Zhenghua was as quiet as a chicken, and Sun Zhenghua made no trouble for her.
It wasn't until Friday that he brought someone over to meet Gloria. "You two are out doing market research today. It's Friday, so give me your report next Monday."
He brought a tall man who looked very simple and honest.
Glancing at the man, Gloria thought he looked strange.
There were a lot of people in marketing department, and Gloria was here for only a few days, so she didn't know everyone, while she didn't think much about it.
When they left the company, they took a taxi.
Gloria asked. "Can we reimburse the company for the fare?"
"Yes." The man looking at her, his eyes looked strange.
Alarmed, Gloria turned, looked out the window, and she saw that the car was heading for the suburbs.
Before they came out, she viewed the product brochure, so she knew that the company's product released this time was a kind of household commodity, and the place where they were going to do market research should be residential areas.
As they happened to be passing a drugstore, Gloria looked down, she bit her lip hard, and frowned, pretending to be in pain. "Can you stop for a minute while I go to the drugstore and get something?"
The man asked her. "What are you going to buy?"
"Painkillers." Gloria turned to look at him. "I'm on my period, and I have a stomachache."
The man thought for a moment and then understood, saying. "I'll go with you."
"Okay." Gloria knew that if she refused, he would think of other ways to keep her out of the car.
She was now certain that this man had been summoned by Sun Zhenghua to revenge himself on her.
The two of them got out of the car and entered the drugstore. The man closely following Gloria, Gloria bought her medicine, walking slowly out of the drugstore.
At that moment, a man in the mask and peaked cap came in from the outside. He put his hand to his lips and coughed slightly. As Gloria passed by, she suddenly grabbed his arm, she looking surprised. "Cousin, why are you here?"
The man in the mask seeming stunned for a moment, as he reached up and moved his peaked cap upward, showing a pair of familiar and gentle eyes.
