Relief
He frowned slightly with mixed feelings on his face. Gloria who sat in front of the gravestone could nol
sec Joidy, but Jordy could hear hier words very clearly
Gloria raised her land and stroked gently the man’s face in the picture, hier heart pounding, “Dad, I
should have listened to you. I shouldn’t have married him.”
Jordy’s face darkened, his eyes turning sharp. But he didn’t shoot daggers at her, for fear that she
might get startled Besides, he wanted to know what she was going to say next.
Gloria sighed “You once told me I should marry tie right man in my life If I can’ı, i’d better be singlc But I
liked him so much. Dad, do you know my fcclings for him? I can’t remember how many years it has
been since I fell for lun. But I can no longer get him oul of my mind since the first time I saw liim”
Jordy was shocked and looked at her in disbelief. The next second, he snccred inside. So what if shie
liked me for many years? She’s standing against me now, isn’i shc?
Gloria pursed her lips, “Angela’s appearance inade me realize I was a big clown and Jordy hated me
that much. I dial was die case, why should I love him devotedly? I was luis wifc, but he made me feel I
was the misuess. In his cyes, I was that woman who used all kinds of dirty tricks.”
With thai, she chuclued. “Dad, I am sorry I didn’t live up to your expectations. I let you down. Now I’ve
got over him. Since lie doesn’t love me, I’ll stay away from him and take him as a stranger.”
TAS SI
Jordy grilled his teeth and looked sullen
A touch of sadness fitted across Gloria’s eyes. “I used to worry he would abandon me. That was the
last thing I cant to happen What should I do if he doesn’t want me anymore? I would lose sleep every
time I thought of it. But that still liappened. I thought I would get hurt very much. But you know what?
When I signed my name on die divorce paper, I felt relieved. Il seemed that I could live without him.
Perhaps, he was not my Mr. Right and he was not as important as I thought. At that moment I realized
my obsession for himn died down with liis hatred for me.
Jordy’s face blanched.
“Dad, I should have obeyed you. He was the best of the best, but he never belongs to me.”
With that, Gloria chuckled and looked relieved.
Jordy clenched his fists and the veins on his forehead bulged.
“Dad, please forgive me for being late to see you. Don’t worry. I’ll come here often since I get some free
time and no one can restrict me.”
“Dad, actually, I’m not that aggrieved, so you don’t have to worry. When I lived in the Collins family,
Grandma and Jordy’s father were nice to me and doted on me like I was their real family.
After you passed away, they gave me a sense of intimacy that I got from you. When I was sad about
your death, it was Grandma that comforted me all the time.”
Gloria cast down her eyes, tears running out of them.
Jordy who stood behind her could not see her tears, but he saw her trembling. He was stunned slightly.
Is she crying?
When they were a couple, he had never seen her crying, so he strode over subconsciously.
