Chapter 552 The Sudden Phone Call

• Angela gritted her teeth. “I wish that day would come, but that mystery person has been sitting on her hands till now. When will these miserable days end? I want Gloria dead right now!” “She’ll die one day!” A murderous look shone in Martha’s eyes. Claude and Martha both lost their appetite because of Angela. Claude looked at the big meal on the table and picked up his knife and fork. “Eat, or we can’t think of a good way to deal with her with an empty stomach. If you starve yourself, you may never have a chance to fight with her.” Martha nodded, looked at Angela, and handed her the fork and knife. “Let’s eat.” Angela bit her lip, took the fork and knife, and said nothing more.
• However, a phone call came in, and the family of three completely lost their appetite! When Claude’s cell phone rang, they all frowned and looked worried. They seemed resistant to the call. Claude picked up the phone anyway. It was his assistant. “Mr. Chairman, I finally reach you!” The assistant was clever. He still called Claude Mr. Chairman. Listening to his anxious voice, Claude sensed that something was wrong. He frowned and asked gravely, “What’s going on?” “I… I…” His assistant stumbled and even couldn’t speak in full sentences. Claude and his family looked worse. Angela put down the knife and fork she had just picked up, and Martha completely lost her appetite. It’s still early. I can’t believe there is a worse thing coming up. When will it end? “Tell me what happened.” Claude seemed to be running out of patience. Actually, he feared that Gloria would land him in big trouble! The assistant dared not hesitate but spoke in a panic, “I couldn’t get through to you, so the court reached me and said it served a summons on you…” Claude’s face turned terribly pale! Martha and Angela blanched too. They received a summons at this time! Claude asked as if he couldn’t accept it, “From who?”
• The assistant fell silent and then spoke feebly, “… Gloria.” Claude took a deep breath and closed his eyes. “I see. Send me the details on WhatsApp.” “Yes, sir…” Claude hung up. At this moment, Claude and his family were silent. None of them made a sound. They all looked pale. They were very irritated and scared in this situation! Angela couldn’t contain herself. “Why? I thought there was nothing wrong with the contract! How does Gloria have the nerve to do this?” “Is she trying to freak us out before the hearing? It’s a long process anyway. Could this be her last try?” asked Martha with a puzzled look. Angela frowned and bit her lip hard. “If that’s the case, we don’t have to worry. But why do I feel like something’s wrong? Does she really have something up her sleeve?”
