My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 200 Satisfaction

Gloria Taylor focused her eyes on him but found nothing unusual.

She kept a smiling face and asked.

“I heard you went to some mountain villages for charity and lost contact. We were worried about you.”

“Yeah, it was a small village, so phones got no signals there. Anyway, sorry to keep you guys worried.”

Si answered with a neutral expression, leaving Gloria speechless.

Under such circumstances, Gloria began to be skeptical about his own judgment.

But it still did not make sense. Let alone her instinct, there was no way Kenny did not find anything about this.

Suddenly, she felt the man in front of her was terrifying.

“Gloria, you asked a lot today.”

Si interrupted her thoughts and his words got her face twitched a bit.

“Oh, it’s probably because I barely spoke to Kenny these days, and now I met you, so I just can’t stop talking.”

“No, it’s fine. Such a huge industry of the Clarke family on his shoulder must have kept him fully occupied.” Si nodded his head and looked concerned about her and Kenny.

Gloria responded with a smile and said no more.

...

She got out of the building and thinking about their conversation.

Even she pressed on him, but Si Chengyu was still as natural and gentle as he used to be.

And that was when it hit her.

Was he too natural?

There was no way that he did not know the news of him and her, yet, he did not mention a single word about it. It was almost like that never happened.

That was not the Si she knew, or he would have apologized and given her more concern.

Was he getting nervous because of feeling guilty?

As she thought, a car stopped in front of her, and down the window, showed Edith Hall who wore a costume.

“Ed?”Gloria gave a surprised look. “Did you get here from a movie set?”

“You can tell, don’t you?” Edith looked around and said. “Now, hop in.”

The second Gloria got in the car, Edith started it.

“Did you saw the Microblog that posted your information?” Edith drove and asked her.

“I did.” Gloria turned serious when it came to this.

“Did you call Kenny?” Edith was ever more anxious than her.

“I did.” But she did not tell Edith that Kenny did not answer.

“That’s good.” Edith was relieved a bit.

They stopped in a crossroads for the traffic light, and Edith opened Microblog on her cellphone.

After a few seconds, she turned around to Gloria with a puzzled face.

“You sure you called him? Cause this isn’t joking. This guy here definitely knew something about you. With so many people watching, the consequence will be serious.”

Edith lived under the spotlight because that was what she did.

While Gloria was the wife of Kenny Clarke, the young mistress of the Clarke family. If she went public as the girlfriend of Si Chengyu, her reputation and life would both be ruined.

“He did not answer.”Gloria sighed and told her the truth.

“Let’s find him now.”

“No, don’t.” Gloria did not want to disturb him.

Edith saw her frowning face, so she said no more and just called Carl Cook.

Carl picked up the phone on one beep. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Ed?”

“That guy on Microblog exposing Gloria. Did you do anything about him?”

“Yeah, we’re on it.”

“Okay.”

“Did you...”

Edith hung up the phone before Carl finished his sentence.

“Carl said they are on it,” Edith turned to Gloria. “Your man’s reliable.”

Hearing that, Gloria breathed a long sigh of relief. And then, Edith dropped her home.

Kenny was not home yet at this hour, so Gloria went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

While there was still no sign of him when it was nine in the night. She ate some and put the rest into the refrigerator.

Their housekeeper was too old to stay late at the night, for which Gloria told her to sleep and she waited for Kenny alone, watching TV.

By the time when the sound of the car engine came, it was nearly midnight.

Gloria yawned and got up to the kitchen to heat up the food.

As soon as Kenny walked into the room, a bodyguard told him that Gloria waited for him for a whole night.

He went to the dining room and smelled hot food.

Gloria wore a pajama and got out of the kitchen with a plate on her hand.

Kenny wanted to hug her but realized he did not take off his cold coat.

He took it off and then hold her into his arms.

“You don’t need to wait for me.”

“Well, only occasionally.” She raised her head and smiled at him. “Sit down and eat.”

Kenny did not have anything for the night yet, so he kept sending food to his mouth.

While Gloria watched him eating and felt warm inside.

Kenny was busy but would help her with her stuff, and in turn, she would take care of him.

That was the meaning of family and love. Gloria thought with satisfaction.

“Thank you.”After Kenny finished, Gloria said to him, holding her chin with both hands.

“What?” Kenny raised his head.

“Microblog.”

“The news?”

The smile faded gradually on her face, and Gloria said.

“This afternoon, Someone in the Microblog claimed to know the woman having dinner with Si Chengyu and would tell everyone on Friday. ”
