The Laughing Stock
In the beginning, Harold was to report every detail to Jordy.
But he still remembered what Jordy told him at that time. “You don‘t have to talk to me about these
things.”
Thus, Harold decided not to report the details to him
Looking at Jordy‘s face darkened again, Harold said, as if he didn‘t see it, “Mr. Collins, shall we go?”
Jordy didn‘t say a word and got up. Then Harold hurriedly followed fordy
Gloria went home and called Jonathan as soon as she finished unpacking,
Jonathan answered the phone quickly. He smiled and said, “What is it, my princess?”
Gloria frowned. She looked calm and said, “I‘m back. I‘m going to talk to the company about your
previous request, so please give me some time. And I have two more projects to deal with. After that, I
will start to take full charge of your project. Is that okay with you?”
A serious look flashed in Jonathan‘s eyes. “When did you get back?”
Gloria looked puzzled and did not reply to his question. “What‘s wrong?”
Jonathan frowned slightly and said, “There was an accident on the plane. Did you guys deal with it?”
Gloria‘s eyes flickered. He is quite something. He is capable of knowing such things so quickly
Then Gloria smiled and said, “He solved the problem. Mr. Brown, I‘m going to the office now. Wish me
luck.”
She didn‘t want to talk about it while Jonathan didn‘t ask for details, but he said, “Are you hurt?”
“No.” After a pause, Gloria said, “I‘ll go back to the office.”
“Are you free to have dinner with me tonight?”
Gloria laughed and said, “Mr. Brown, you‘re leaving me a bit at a loss. I just finished dealing with Mr.
Waydell. Am I going to have to get involved with you again soon?”
“Sooner or later.” Jonathan put on a doting smile and said, “You‘ll have to get used to this. I‘ll let
everyone know I love you with all my heart.”
Gloria pursed her lips and was not touched by his words, She said, “I‘ll hang up now.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up the phone, Gloria headed straight to the office.
Although it would be normal for her to deal with Jonathan‘s project, because it would be more beneficial
to the company, she could not do that now.
Jordy‘s relationship with Jonathan and her cooperation with Hunter may be seen as something unusual
in the eyes of the public. It could make the public, as well as executives, think that she only relied on
her connections to get her work done.
So, she had to complete two other tasks that were very difficult to deal with first. It was how she ‘could
make people think that she was capable instead of relying on her luck and pretty face.
It didn‘t take long for Gloria to arrive at the office.
When everyone saw her, there was a different look in each of their eyes.
Everyone knew that Gloria was on a business trip with Jordy during this time.
Although Angela didn‘t want everyone to know and intended to keep it from the others, Jordy and
Gloria leaving together was not a secret. Moreover, given the live broadcast, everyone knew that the
two of them were on a business trip together.
The intimate contact between Gloria and Jordy on that day shocked and envied the public! Angela
became a laughing stock. And netizens kept gossiping about them on Twitter.
It was enviable that they were still so comfortable together even though Jordy and Gloria were
divorced!
However, Sheila didn‘t think about it that much. The first time she saw Gloria, she said, “Gloria, I didn‘t
want to bother you those days. Did something happen to you that day? How did you fall into the
water?”
In an instant, everyone looked toward Gloria.
