My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 71: Who would end up losing badly?

Kenny stood up slowly, looking Randy coldly. "You are too old to fuss about such little things anymore."

The meaning of what he said was that he didn't need Randy to take care of his business.

Randy was such a smart, and wise man that he understood Kenny right away.

He was so angry that he wanted to break something, but he refrained.

Leng Xu walking up, offered him a glass of water. "Sir, take a glass of water to calm yourself. The young master is still young now, and he'll see what you've done for him later."

Randy sighed. "I hope so."

Out of the tea house, Kenny took out his cell phone, being ready to call Gloria.

He took it out but then put it back.

He's kind of looking forward to seeing how Gloria would handle this.

…

Gloria was almost late.

When she sat down in her cubicle at work, she was acutely aware that everyone was looking at her, while the way people looked at her was strange.

Gloria took out the phone, using it as a mirror to look at her face. There was no dirt on her face, she looking as usual!

A woman, who was sitting opposite Gloria, was kind enough to point at the cell phone when she saw that Gloria seemed to know nothing at all.

Gloria finally understood, Gloria smiled at her, and then turned on her phone to surf the Internet.

She usually had the habit of surfing the Internet, reading entertainment news after getting up in the morning. Today, since she overslept, she did not read it.

The headline in the entertainment section was about her.

When she clicked in, she found the pictures of her and Leon walking outside the restaurant yesterday.

After Gloria was surprised, she calmed down.

"Leon" was so arrogant and unscrupulous that it's only a matter of time before they're photographed.

She wasn't afraid, as a straight foot was not afraid of a crooked shoe, but what would happen when the people at Clarke's saw the news?

What if Kenny saw these pictures?

Just then Loren called her. "Come to my office."

When Gloria went to the office, Loren was alone in his office, as Anne was beaten so badly in the face yesterday that she looked like a pig. Of course, Anne couldn’t come to work today.

Loren didn't look well when he saw her. "What exactly is your relationship with Leon?"

Gloria pursed her lips, speaking in an indifferent tone. "We are not having any affair."

"If you're not having any affair, what is this?"

Loren slapped his phone in front of her, which again had a picture of her and "Leon" on it.

Gloria leaned over, rested her hands on the desk, and she raised her red lips a little. Her bright face looked gorgeous and charming, while her tone was casual. "That's a question you should ask Anne, as she took the photos secretly, so she knew best."

On her way to Loren's office, she thought carefully that only Anne had the audacity to secretly photograph them and send the photos to the press, as no one but her dared to mess with Clarke's.

Besides, only a few people actually knew her and "Leon".

"Gloria, since when have you been so thoughtless? She suffered so much yesterday for you, and now you want to accuse her!" Loren stood up angrily.

Gloria stepped back, there seemed to be a flash of cold light in her eyes, while she smiled more brightly than ever. "As for what you said yesterday, whether I choose to help you or not depends on how you deal with it."

Loren said yesterday that he wanted her to persuade Kenny to invest in the Taylor's Group. She was hesitant to ask Kenny to try, but Loren's words made her make up her mind at this moment.

Anne got what she deserved yesterday, but Loren said Anne was suffering for Gloria.

Knowing that there was a misunderstanding about her skipping work, Loren chose to patch up a quarrel and reconcile the parties concerned. He simply ignoring it, he did not even make an apology!

Of course Gloria didn't want to help Loren.

However, just like nothing was too deceitful in war, it's not certain who would end up losing badly!

Even if they had the same blood running through their bodies, once they were free of emotional bonds, they would no longer be afraid to hurt each other.

…

All day long, wherever Gloria went, she heard this news be discussed.

However, she turned her back on them all, as those who wished to ask dared not come to her about it.

By the time she left work, the top search about her and "Leon" had been removed, but there were still a lot of people talking about it in various forums and post bars.

Edith called her, too. "Next time when you're on top search, can you take me along, too? I think, with being on top search and getting the popularity, if you're on top search a few more times, you can be successful in the entertainment industry."

Gloria tried to weep, but failed to shed a tear. "Do you think I want to be on top search?"

Edith suddenly said in earnest. "To be honest, I saw the candid photos. Although there were many online water armies claimed that the candid photos were the dislocation shot, I could see at a glance that the photos were not the dislocation shot at all after being in so many scenes! I thought this guy, who called "Leon", was going to hatch a sinister plot against you. Otherwise, are you two really..."

"No, we are not having any affair!" Gloria quickly denied it. "Come back from the play as soon as you can, and I'm going to get off work. Good-bye."

After hanging up, Gloria was relieved, and then she packed up, being ready to go home from work.

As soon as she walked out the door of the Taylor's Group, before she knew it, she was surrounded by a crowd of entertainment reporters.

"Gloria, is the story about you and your husband's cousin true on the Internet?"

"Have you been entangling any other men besides your husband's cousin?"

“……” Other men? Fuck you.

Fortunately, Gloria was quick to cover her face.

It never occurred to her that she would be surrounded by entertainment reporters.

In the midst of the confusion, Gloria took out her mask, putting it on. Then she looked up, saying in a cold voice. "It's a rumor, so I have nothing to say, while I'm not in the entertainment industry yet, so I'm not obligated to answer your questions."

Some entertainment reporters were very careful to remember the key words in her words.

"Gloria, as you just said that: I'm not in the entertainment industry yet, so you mean you're going to make your debut as an entertainer later?"

Then, other entertainment reporters also asked questions on this subject. "It has been rumored that your husband may not be able to inherit the Clarke's Group due to personal health issues, so you want to enter the entertainment industry to find a way out for yourself?"

"As for the last few times you've been on top search, was it because you're deliberately hyping yourself?"

“…”

Gloria was surrounded by entertainment reporters and couldn't get out.

Suddenly, there was a sound of many people's footsteps, as a group of security guards came, they driving the entertainment reporters away.

Before Gloria realized what was happening, Colin suddenly appeared beside her. He taking her by the wrist, strode off toward the parking lot.

Gloria feeling sick at the thought of his hand touching Anne, she flung off his hand.

Colin was stunned for a moment, and then he said to her patiently. "Gloria, since the entertainment reporters will be here any minute, you get in the car first as I'll get you out of here."

Gloria hesitated for a moment, then she followed him into the car.

She dared not underestimate the power of entertainment reporters, so she'd better get out of here first.
