Chapter 474 Coming Down To This
- Jordy was absent all day, and Gloria felt at home. Nydia kept her company, chatting and laughing with her. She was also forced to rest from time to time. In the evening, Nydia asked her with a smile, “Girl, what would you like to have for dinner?” “Anything will be fine.” She was not picky about food. “Okay, I’ll get it ready.” “Thanks.” “No problem, I’ve kept it on record, and you will cook for me in return. As the saying goes, a drop of water in need shall be returned with a spring in deed. I’ll have someone get the food ready, and you will cook for me in person. It’s called reciprocity,” Nydia enthused. Gloria was amused. “Fair point.” Nydia laughed. In fact, she had bummed meals off many times. “Alright, I’m going to get the food for you.” “Go ahead.”
- Nydia got up and left. Just then, her phone rang. Gloria checked the caller ID before the smile in her eyes then answered it. faded away. She “What’s the deal?” “Cousin, we haven’t been in touch for some time. Are you free? Why don’t you come to my house?” Gloria was indifferent. “I’m on a business trip. Don’t you know, cousin?” The call was from Angela. Probably, Angela was trying to sound her out. “A business trip? I’ve been on suspension and just got out of the hospital. Outdated, I just came back to work today.” “Congratulations, be sure to change your rash character. You don’t want to get criticized by everyone and suspended again.”
- Angela was trying to annoy Gloria, but the latter returned with harsher words. She was pissed off. What a lowly bitch! She took a breath and said, “The others may not know, but you’re clear about everything. Did that happen because I was rash?” Gloria smiled, “Who knows? Anyway, I hope you’ll learn your lesson. Don’t make the same mistake or screw things up because of the same person again. That will make you look stupid.” “What the…” Angela’s anger flared up, but her brows furrowed in the next instant. What does she mean? Screw things up because of the same person? Has she found out anything? Then she shook her head. No way! Gloria couldn’t possibly know their scheme. She believed that she was oversensitive and said in a low voice, “Come home when you’re free.”
