She still Needs Hope?
Jordy's eyes flashed. He was clearly getting a little emotional about this. Angela thought she finally
convinced him of her innocence and continued with a sigh of relief, "Jordy, you have to trust me.Since
when have you doubted me? Did someone play you against me?”
Angela’s voice trembled at the last words as she gazed at him with her sad eyes.
Newell seemed totally unmoved.He didn’t believe her at all.
Angela didn't get a response from Jordy, and her fear seemed to grow.
What can I do...? She wasn't sure about that before, but she was now! Jordy must have heard the
recording! Otherwise, he would not be so wary of her.
After a pause, Jordy said softly, "You go home now.I’ve got something to do.We’ll have lunch
tomorrow.”
Angela’s face grew white.
In the old days, she was overjoyed when Jordy invited her to lunch.
But now…He wants to have lunch with me.
Is he going to dump me? Suddenly she changed her mind and decided not to go! Angela shook her
head.
“I can’t go.I’m worried about my sister.How about you go home and I'll stay with her for a few days?”
She would do everything she could to make sure that Jordy and Gloria were never alone again.
Jordy frowned slightly.His aura of authority scared Angela a little, but even so, she forced herself to
look straight into his eyes, asif to confront him.
But then Jordy said, "Angela, I'm losing my patience with you.”
For a moment, Angela was too frightened to say a word.She tried to say no to him, but now she chose
to give in.She dared not challenge him anymore.
If she did, would he immediately turn his back on her and never see her again? Angela’s eyes brimmed
with tears.
"Why are you doing this to me?" Gloria is my sister…
Angela didn't say it loud because she was afraid that it would only make Jordy angry.
How did lordy get the damn recording? Oh, it's my mother’s assistant!
“Get out.” Angela gave an involuntary shudder.
Newell sighed, looked at Angela, and said, "Angela, look at you now.You can’t take care of Gloria.Just
go home.Jordy will stay here and look after her.And her best friend is also here." Angela looked at
Newell piteously.
“Mr.Collins…”
“Go now,” Newell insisted.
Angela was reluctant to go, but she had to.
At last, she bit her lip and claimed, "I'm innocent! Please trust me!”
“All right, if you say so." Newell had a benign manner.
It was hard to tell what he had in mind from his face.He was supposed to mean that he didn't trust
Angela at all.
Jordy neither looked at Angela nor said anything.
This was a very delicate situation.
Angela was upset, but she bit her lip and said nothing more.
She then walked out and looked back at Jordy with every step she took.
The room was quiet again.
Jordy wanted to have a private talk with Newell just now, but he couldn’t bear to leaveGloria alone in
the room.
He turned to Newell.
“The ticket has been booked.The plane will take off in two and a half hours.Thanks for your help."
"Are you staying for Gloria?" Newell stared at him with plain disapproval in his eyes.
“If you can’t make her happy, leave her alone.”
