Chapter 815 Being So Possessive Of Her
- Gloria asked with her eyes narrowed, "If not you, who else wants me dead?" Mr. Goddard? No! He's paranoid and crazy. He would never kill someone without torturing him. Besides, no matter how angry he is, he will definitely not get that far in the casino for the sake of my uncle. The man fired two shots and then committed suicide. Gloria thought the person behind him was not that simple. It's either Heather or... Heather pursed his lips and then spoke, interrupting Gloria's thoughts. "You may suspect us, but we have the right to explain. Gloria, if I really wanted you dead, you would have been dead when Ilsa sent you away!" "Ilsa and I both feel powerless. If you don't believe me, you can ask the owner of the casino. He's had someone follow us, hasn't he?" Heather asked again before Gloria could say anything. Gloria lapsed into silence. It's not them. It's not Mr. Goddard either. Who was it? Is there a more powerful one behind this? At this thought, Gloria became more curious. What was it about her that made these people try so hard to kill her? There was no answer. She wouldn't be able to look into it right away. Heather knew that Gloria was lost in thought. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "If you want to find out something, why don't you come with me and I'll take you somewhere?"
- "No need for that." Gloria rejected his idea without a second thought. There was no way she was going with Heather right now. Gloria hung up the phone before Heather could say another word. She continued to take care of Jordy. But the phone rang again. She thought it was still Heather, so she just picked it up without checking the caller ID and blurted out impatiently. "I said no! Heather, will you give it a rest?" Jonathan frowned worriedly on the other end of the 70.01% phone when he heard Gloria say an unknown male name in an impatient voice. "Gloria, what happened to you? Who's Heather?" He was supposed to go with her to the UK auction. But unexpectedly, a tricky problem occurred and the whole Brown family had to deal with it. So he couldn't go with her. Now that Harold returned with Misty Lucid Ganoderma, Jonathan became worried about Gloria, who had not been back yet. Gloria was surprised. She looked at her phone and saw that it was Jonathan's phone number. She frowned a little and was mad at herself for being distracted by Heather's call. Gloria's eyes lingered for a moment. "Sorry, I didn't check the caller ID." "It's nothing. Are you in trouble? That's what matters to me. And who's Heather?" Jonathan didn't mind if Gloria lost her temper just now. It was because he totally accepted her and loved her for who she was. But he could tell that something was wrong. Gloria didn't want to worry him, so she tried to change the subject.
- "Just an annoying guy.' Jonathan didn't think so. Jordy is by her side. Jordy is extremely possessive of her. How could he possibly allow another man to pester her? It Does More Harm Than Good That only means Heather and Jordy are evenly matched! They didn't return post haste, so they must get in trouble there. Jonathan realized this and said candidly, "Gloria, send me your location and I'll be right over there." Jonathan was as good as his word. Gloria replied calmly, "I'm pretty much done here. I'll be back as soon as Jordy and I put on the finishing touches. You don't need to come here and help." Jordy got shot twice because of her. What if Jonathan came to her and had an accident? She would be terribly busy taking care of them both. "Gloria, how do you...?" Gloria immediately spoke to cut him off. "I'm fine. I'll contact you back home. I've got business to attend to. Bye." On the other end of the phone, Jonathan was serious and silent. After hanging up, Gloria was about to put her phone away when she met Jordy's staring eyes. Gloria was surprised. "When did you wake up? How do you feel?" She had mixed feelings toward the man in front of her. He risked his life to save her. Was he... really worried about her, or was he afraid that no one would treat his grandma if she died? Surprisingly, Jordy saw the concern in her eyes and hesitated for a moment.
