My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 180 Stubborn and cute as a kid

“Okay. So you’re calling just to tell me this?” Kenny Clarke seemed to recover to his casualness, again. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Um...Not exactly.”

“Then what else?”

And this time, Gloria heard something wrong in his voice.

“Um... Actually, nothing...” She did not want to hurt his feeling, so she did not tell him about Si Chengyu.

“Where are you now?” As he spoke, Kenny grabbed the keys and went out, leaving Carl Cook in his office alone.

“Luckily, Si Chengyu is not here today.” Carl Cook looked at the door, mumbled to himself.

Kenny told Gloria to wait for him, so she went to a restaurant next to the tea house.

She sat beside the window so that she would see Kenny coming and Kenny would notice her.

About fifteen minutes later, he arrived. And as Kenny walked to Gloria, she kept her eyes on Kenny’s face to check on his mood.

“Hey, Kenny. Wow, you look great today!” Gloria smiled and tried to flatter him.

Kenny raised an eyebrow and knew she was trying to cheer him up, but he did not respond to it and asked her directly.

“You should be at working now. Why are you here?”

Hearing that, Gloria knew that he was too smart to be lied to, so she told to him the whole thing.

Kenny was just staring at her after Gloria finished, which made Gloria a little guilty, and then he said.

“So you contacted Si Chengyu first.”

Gloria could almost smell his jealousy, and when she was considering how to comfort him, she noticed Randy Clarke and Kenny’s grandfather, Richard Clarke, walked out of the tea house.

“How come your Dad and grandpa are here?”She pointed to them and told to Kenny, and he turned to look at them.

Their expressions could not be seen at a distance, but they did not walk side by side.

Seeing this, Kenny thought of something and then explained to her.

“That tea house was one of our properties. Family members usually discuss business there.”

“Hum...”

“And the card my grandfather gave to you can get you to any entertainment venues, including this one.”

As they talked, Richard got in the car and spoke to Randy through the car window before it drove away. While Randy watched the car leaving, and then he went into his car as well.

Father and son had tea together. That was common. But at this point...

“My cousin went out from there and looked upset, you say?” Kenny put his sight on Gloria again.

That drew her back from the astonishment of the preciousness of the card.

“Yeah, and I called and texted him then, but he didn’t answer or text me back.”

Speaking of Si Chengyu, Gloria could not help getting serious. The news was unable to hit him hard like that, and besides, before she got here, he was just fine, so something happened to him during the time she was on her way here.

But what happened?

Gloria raised her head and was going to ask Kenny when she realized Kenny was looking at her all the time.

“What?” Gloria asked.

“You called him, and even texted him, frequently. You get along well.” Kenny replied.

“You never text me.” Before she could explain something, Kenny added.

He was like a wronged high school kid, which Gloria seldom saw, so she took her phone in a hurry and said.

“I’ll text you now!”

Gloria did not text him because she thought such a rich and busy man like Kenny would not read text or text to anybody.

“Don’t be ridiculous.” He turned his head to the window but held the phone on his hand like he was waiting for it to buzz.

And Gloria typed and texted to him quickly.

Buzz, buzz.

Kenny glanced at his phone and frowned.

“What was that?” He questioned Gloria

“I’m saying hi to you. You see, ordinary people usually start to text each other with a hi.” Gloria explained.

But after her explanation, Kenny just stared at her and kept staring at her.

“Fine! I’m sorry! I’ll do it again!” Gloria took out her phone.

“Hey, babe. It’s your wife texting. Love you, love you, love you. And a heart emoji.” Gloria typed as she spoke.

Buzz, buzz.

Gloria looked at Kenny who was checking his phone, and then she caught the glimmer of a smile in his eyes.

This man was stunning and cute as a kid. Gloria thought and smiled.

“Come on, let’s go.” With satisfaction, Kenny stood up and said.

“Yeah.”

She stood up as well and was going to reach her purse, but Kenny grabbed the purse first.
