A Determined Look
Melissa sighed again, “I know you‘re in a bad mood, so I won‘t say much about it. You should mull it
over. She disagreed at first but changed her mind after your car accident. Why?”
Bryson felt heartbroken.
He was close to the answer, but he couldn‘t… He was unwilling to believe it.
“Mom, say no more.”
Melissa sighed at his condition and patted him on the shoulder. “Alright, I‘ll leave you alone. Just don‘t
beat yourself up.”
She didn‘t have the heart to lay bare everything.
She was worried about her son, fearing that he couldn‘t extricate himself.
Angela and her mother also saw the trending topics.
In the room, Angela was holding her phone with a trembling hand.
She was exasperated.
Martha felt her daughter‘s rage and tried to soothe her, “It can‘t be true. Jordy is a lofty man. How
could he possibly beg to remarry Gloria? It must be a false rumor or hype spread by Gloria to provoke
you.”
Angela gnashed her teeth, stared at the screen of her phone, and snapped, “There is no smoke without
fire. These are exaggerations, but I‘ve smelled a rat!”
She was mad but did not go nuts. She knew that something was wrong.
Martha frowned and shook her head. “I don‘t think so. Jordy‘s pride would not let him do sucha thing. It
may be a misunderstanding or hype. As I said, it could be Gloria’s trick.”
Angela turned livid. “I was convinced that she had lost faith in Jordy and given up, but she gets
entangled with Jordy all over again. There is no doubt that she‘s playing games.”
Following a sigh, Martha said, “No matter what happens, you should stay calm. After all, you‘ve given
upon Jordy.”
Angela clutched her phone. “I hate them. I want them dead, but I love him! Although it may not be true,
I can‘t see him with another woman. This is so sad. Mom, why the person Jordy likes is not me? Why is
he so cruel?”
Her voice turned helpless and bitter.
“Angela!” Martha spat, furrowing her brows.
Angela‘s eyelashes fluttered, and she looked up at her mother.
Her tears then fell.
Martha sighed but lost her tongue.
In fact, she still hadn‘t recovered from the shock of Claude losing two billion dollars.
And now, her daughter had a mental breakdown. Why did life go so hard on her?
Angela took a deep breath to calm down..
Still, she couldn‘t help throwing her phone on the bed.
She had refrained from throwing it on the floor.
Martha put on a determined look, and her voice turned stern.
