Chapter 250 A Hedgehog

• "Or you could beg for it." Gloria felt lost for words. She looked at him and snapped, "Jordy Collins, what's wrong with you?" "If it weren't for me, you'd still be in the water. My phone was soaked because of you. Isn't it the treatment that you deserve?" Gloria sniffed, "Don't you call me an ungrateful person in this case. I knew you saved me for your own sake, for fear of grandma. If you weren't there to get me up today, someone else would." But then again, she should be grateful to whoever saved her. After all, there was no denying the fact that it was a life-and-death moment then. But now... Facing Jordy, she found it so difficult to put a grateful word out of her mouth.
• Consider me a vindictive person, thought Gloria. Sure enough, Jordy's face seemed to grow darker, but Gloria was undaunted. She looked over at Jordy and asked, "Do I really have to beg you to buy me a phone?" There was no way Jordy would let her walk out of this door today. So, she did not see a reason why she should provoke him at the moment. It could be dangerous out there. Angela was a real psycho who would do whatever she could in order to get what she wanted. Jordy had been mad at Gloria. "Why didn't you tell me?" It took Gloria a moment to realize what he meant. She just smiled. "Would you believe me?" Jordy did not answer.
• Gloria was amused at his expression. Apparently, he also remembered what his reaction was whenever she told him something. Jordy closed his eyes. "I'll have my assistant buy a new phone for you. Call grandma right now and tell her that you are okay. She had been asking about you." Gloria didn't say anything. She picked up the phone and dialed the number of Karen. Karen put it through almost immediately. "Hello." "Grandma, it's me, Gloria." Karen was taken aback and then she asked anxiously, "Gloria, how are you doing? I saw you were all wet. What happened?" The room was quiet. Even without the call being put on speaker could Jordy hear clearly what Karen was saying?
