Were You Born Yesterday?
Gloria closed the door with a frown and looked at Jordy coldly. “What’s the matter with you?”
In days gone by, Jordy would have left in a fury!
But now, he didn’t leave.
He stayed and cast his dominant aura over the place. The plants in the house seemed to wither as if
they had got a very powerful vibe from him.
Gloria’s frown deepened. “Jordy, I don’t think it’s in your character to stay in my house.”
“If it wasn’t for Karen, do you think I would stay here?”
Gloria snorted and thought he was being irrational, but she didn’t doubt his story. After all, if it wasn’t for
Karen, Jordy would have walked away.
The next moment, Gloria said with a faint smile, “If you’re worried, I’ll talk to Karen then.”
Jordy had a frosty look on his face. “You dare not!”
“I dare yes. Gloria looked him in the eye with cold indifference, apparently quite at her ease.
She didn’t care about him anymore, so she felt comfortable saying whatever she wanted.
She dared to say anything while guarding her own interests.
She didn’t have to care about his feelings!
Jordy was just a person in and out of her life. He meant nothing to her!
Jordy’s face turned grimmer as he walked right up to Gloria, who frowned and avoided getting too
close to him.
Jordy grabbed her arm so that she could not even move an inch away from him. Gloria’s brow furrowed
and her face dropped. With a wound on her back, she knew she could not break free from him no
matter how hard she tried.
“Let go of me.”
“Gloria, I’m telling you for the last time, don’t you defy me again!”
At this moment, George arrived and heard Jordy’s loud voice.
Nydia was worried about Gloria and wanted to check if she was alright. George couldn’t bear to watch
her go out on a limb, so he came with her. They just got off the car and heard Jordy’s cold voice.
Gloria had just had dinner in the living room and opened the window to let fresh air in. Thus, George
and Nydia could hear Jordy clearly.
George looked excited. “Oh, man. You were worried about her and came to her door. Why were you
saying such cruel words? You didn’t mean what you said.”
Gloria scowled and turned back to George. Jordy looked grimmer, unnoticed by all but himself.
Clearly, Jordy was offended by George’s words.
Nydia was relieved to see Gloria. “Gloria!”
Gloria immediately tried to pull her hand out, but Jordy had no intention of letting go. Rather, he
tightened his grip on her. She neither felt any pain nor broke free. “They’re here. Let go of me right
now!” demanded Gloria angrily.
Jordy snorted, “Why should I? I was asking you if you heard me.”
Their voices were not as loud as they had been. It was obvious that neither of them had noticed the
open window.
Gloria gritted her teeth. “I’m a full person and I have no relationship with you. Who are you to dictate
how I live my life? Were you born yesterday? Did you use your brain when you said that?”
