The Trick
Jordy had a video conference next. Gloria went back to her room with the proposal.
Harold sent a WhatsApp message to Gloria about the meeting in the morning.
Gloria spent the afternoon working on the proposal. She was trying to figure out how she could
communicate the specifics to the designer.
In the evening, Jordy and Gloria had dinner together as usual.
Gloria was surprised by Jordy‘s moody mood, but she ate her dinner as usual.
However, she didn‘t expect Jordy‘s cell phone to ring again.
It was still Angela calling Jordy.
Jordy frowned while Gloria laughed and said, “Isn‘t she your lifesaver and girlfriend? Wouldn‘t it be
appropriate if you didn‘t answer her call?”
Jordy instantly stared at Gloria‘s face with a stern look in his eyes. When he saw the sarcastic look in
her eyes, he snickered and said, “Who says I‘m not answering the call?“.
Gloria put on a bright smile and said, “I was afraid you wouldn‘t answer the phone.”
It sounded like she was provoking Jordy.
Jordy gave her a mocking look and picked up the phone.
Before he could speak, Angela‘s gentle and concerned voice had already sounded. “Jordy, have you
eaten dinner yet?”
“I‘m eating dinner.”
Angela was a little surprised and said, “What a coincidence! Is everything going well with your work?”
Jordy gave Gloria an icy look, and as he was about to speak to Angela in a softer tone, Gloria suddenly
said with a soft smile, “Mr. Collins, you never talk while you‘re eating. Don‘t you think it‘s inappropriate
for you to be on the phone while you‘re eating? My cousin forgot your principle. How could she offend
you so much?”
Angela was shocked.
So that person was really Gloria!
Her instinct was correct. Gloria must have been having dinner with Jordy!
Angela had forgotten to explain to Jordy the trap Gloria had just set for her, and she couldn‘t help
asking, “Gloria, are you there?”
“Yes. I have to work with Mr. Collins every day. I‘m so tired.”
She wanted to say she and Jordy were inseparable.
Angela was furious.
What a b*tch!
Angela couldn‘t believe she didn‘t know what to say for a moment!
Jordy narrowed his eyes. Instead, he gave Gloria a cold look and wondered what she was up to.
After a moment, he sneered and said, “Who do you think you are?”
He was saying this to Gloria.
Angela finally felt that Jordy was venting for her! When Angela was about to pretend to defend Gloria,
Gloria couldn‘t help but laugh softly and say, “Mr. Collins, that‘s not what you said about me yesterday
when you spread my legs by force.”
As Jordy applied the ointment to Gloria, he indeed spread her legs.
Jordy‘s eyes looked even more dangerous.
Angela’s expression changed drastically! She became short of breath!!
She couldn‘t help but grip her phone tighter. Then, her voice was even sharper than it had just
sounded. “Gloria, what are you talking about?”
Gloria laughed lightly and said, “What am I saying? Angela, figure it out, Mr. Collins doesn‘t like to talk
during dinner. Why don‘t you hang up?”
Angela said, “Gloria, how can you...”
She couldn‘t control her emotions now, so she couldn‘t help but turn to Jordy and say, “Jordy, is what
Gloria just said true?“.
Jordy was silent and didn‘t say anything.
Gloria looked at him somewhat puzzled. She wondered why Jordy did not look angry.
Shouldn‘t Jordy be angry with her for suddenly screwing up the relationship between Jordy and Angela
like this? Was this the calm before the storm?
The next moment, Gloria smiled, because she didn‘t care that her sudden interruption today wasn‘t
because she wanted to vent her anger.
Instead, it was just a trick she played.
