Chapter 330 That's on her!
Leon Clarke just glanced at Gloria Taylor and he did not stop, so she had to follow him.
“Mrs. Si.” Gloria called Manley when she passed, and that was when Manley saw Gloria.
"You are..." Manley looked at Gloria for a while but seemed not to be able to recognize her.
“I’m Gloria Taylor, Kenny’s ex-wife.” Gloria looked into Manley’s eyes and answered her.
"Oh, that was you." Surprise crossed on Manley’s face.
"Now if you will excuse me." Gloria did nod slightly and then kept moving.
When she found Leon, he was standing at a fountain with his back straight but his head buried very low.
Gloria stepped forward and saw a few traces of water stains on the ground in front of him.
Leon cried.
Gloria Taylor drew out a tissue and handed it to him, but instead of taking it, Leon just opened his mouth in a crying voice.
"Few activities Dad took part in recent years. This time he went to hold an art exhibition because he had a quarrel with Mom and made a temporary decision... My Dad has a very good temper and never loses his temper..."
He gasped and kept saying.
"And when I asked Mom why they quarreled, she didn't tell me. She must have done something terrible, so my father would be so angry and left home like this...that's on her!"
Gloria knew nothing about what Leon said.
On the one hand, Si Minghuan left home because of a quarrel with Manley, and Manley did not intend to tell Leon the reason why they quarreled.
While on the other hand, Kenny Clarke went to country M to find Manley because of Si Chengyu's origin, and before he could talk to Si Minghuan, Si Minghuan was killed in a car accident.
"Come on, Leon." Gloria wiped his tears. "She is your mother anyway. She cares about you, and if you have a misunderstanding with each other, then wait for everyone to calm down and talk it through..."
Leon took the tissue and wiped his face but did not respond to Gloria's words.
Obviously, he was still blaming Manley.
Right now, it was difficult for him to hear others’ opinions.
Gloria took Leon to have a haircut after he calmed down, and after a haircut, he looked much more energetic
Then they went to the mall for shopping.
"Name a thing, and I’ll buy it for you, Leon. My script has been sold. I’m rich now."
While Leon was not in the mood. He looked and touched things blankly.
"You and my cousin. Did you guys really divorced?" He asked Gloria suddenly.
Gloria was taken aback for a moment and then confirmed. Leon then turned his head to look at her and asked again with a serious tone.
"Was it because of the baby? Because my cousin would never do such a horrible thing. I believe him, Gloria."
Gloria went silent.
Leon was an independent child with his own discernment. His horizon was so much broader than others at his age.
That was a good thing.
But he was a member of the Clarke family.
In other words, if he did not carry the Clarke name, he might not be the one he was now.
Gloria took a deep breath and turned to look at him as well.
"Or who else? Give me a name and a reason, Leon."
Leon Clarke seemed to be stumped by the question, and he wrinkled into thought.
"Stop thinking and talking this crap now. Let's just relaxed and have fun, shall we? "Gloria Taylor patted him on the shoulder.
"Sure."
His father died, and her daughter was gone, which made them a perfect pair.
...
They hung out for an entire day and then went back home after dinner.
Gloria did drive her car, so she watched Leon Clarke getting in a car and then booking a cab with an APP, but because it was the peak period, she would have to wait.
Having felt boring, Gloria took her phone. She opened her homepage and found Leon post something that mentioned her.
After clicking that open, she found that was a selfie of them together with the text.
“Having fun. Please hang out with me more often."
Gloria liked it and refreshed it, then she saw Kenny left a comment as well. It was a period, but she could almost feel the dissatisfaction across the screen in that one period of Kenny’s.
As she was thinking, Kenny called.
Gloria picked up the phone but did not open her mouth to say hello, Kenny spoke.
"Did you hang out with Leon for an entire day?"
"You bet."
Kenny kept silent for two seconds and then replied indifferently.
"Oh."
Gloria got her face twitched, and Kenny continued.
“Be home early.”
"Yeah, I know."
Then they hung up.
Gloria curled her lips. That call was less in a minute and though he called specifically, he did not seem to say anything sweet or useful.
The car she asked for had not arrived yet.
“Miss. Taylor.” A woman's voice suddenly came from her back. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Gloria startled and when she turned around and found that it was Manley Clarke, she was relieved.
"Yes, Mrs. Si. Can I help you? "
"I’m sorry, Miss. Taylor." Manley nodded lightly, speaking slowly. " But I’m expecting you not to ask Leon out every day, for he is a kid now, and he needs studying more than playing."
In a word, she wanted Gloria to keep a distance with Leon Clarke and thought her words were way too nicer than Aurora Clarke’s, malevolence was still in them.
"Wow, this is so touching. I’m about to cry. By the way, does Leon know you care about him so much, Mrs. Si? I believe he will be crying, too if he’s aware of what you said." Gloria stared at Manley coldly.
She disliked Manley Clarke, just like the many others in the Clarke family.
"Miss. Taylor, we’re both adults, so let’s keep our decency and leave kids alone, shall we?" Manley's tone remained unchanged.
Gloria sneered and replied to her, imitating her tone.
“You must be kidding, Mrs. Si. Decency you say? I’m not much older than Leon, and from the moment you came to me with your words, you’ve lost yours already.”
