My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 517 Opposing Clarke Group

After listening to Gloria, Kenny gave an unpredictable smile and then took out his mobile phone.

He searched in his phone for a while, in front of Gloria, then played a recording.

“Will you marry me??”

“Yeah...”

The man’s voice was incredibly soft, but Gloria could clearly recognize that it was Kenny’s voice indeed.

Then the gentle voice that replied afterwards…

There was a flash of uneasiness across Gloria’s face. She glanced at Kenny who was looking at her, then shifted her eyes toward his phone. Clenching her fingers, she reached out to grab the phone that Kenny was holding, when he was not paying attention.

However, since Kenny had a good observation, Gloria’s intention of grabbing his phone away couldn’t go unnoticed by him.

He avoided Gloria’s hand easily and put his phone back to his pocket.

He then asked her with a relaxed tone, “Did you hear it?”

Gloria pouted her lips, replied, “It doesn’t count!”

Kenny didn’t say much, then asked her, “Did the word come directly from your mouth?”

“…” Gloria then fell silent. The voice was indeed hers, moreover that was also her reply.

But under a situation like last night, she didn’t even hear Kenny’s question clearly, nor did she answer his question.

Gloria bit her lips and cursed, “You’re horrible!”

“Go ahead and curse. It was you who gave me the answer anyway.” Not only Kenny wasn’t irritated by her curse, but also putting a shy face and dared to kiss her.

Gloria turned away, then gave a smack on Kenny’s forehead before pushing his head back.

“I don’t even want to see you now!”

Kenny chuckled, “No problem. Anyway, we’re going to see each other every day.”

Gloria was about to be laughed at by Kenny. Didn't this man know anything about “shameless”?

The doorbell rang at that moment.

“I’ll get the door.” Kenny stood up, then head towards the door.

When Gloria came out, she saw Kenny was arranging the breakfast on the dining table and she noticed that the brand on the packaging belonged to Jinding.

It was probably Kenny who called to order breakfast from Jinding to be sent here.

Kenny heard the footsteps behind him, turned around and looked at her, “Let’s have some breakfast.”

Gloria walked over and sat down silently.

During the entire breakfast, Gloria barely said a word.

On the other hand, Kenny who said a lot of rare words, talked to Gloria endlessly.

Although Gloria was pretending to ignore him, actually she paid attention to everything that he said.

“I’ve already asked Shi Ye to arrange it. The proper arrangement will be in the next few days. When the time comes, let’s go to pick a wedding dress.”

“You can also ask Ms. Hall to accompany you…”

Gloria acted cold all the time, but Kenny still told her everything in details.

Kenny left directly, after finishing the breakfast.

Gloria gave a call to Edith when she finally had the time.

“Gloria, are you okay? Why didn’t you answer your phone?” Edith’s surrounding sounded particularly empty. Obviously she picked up her call in an empty space.

"Where are you?" Gloria asked.

“I was outside to catch an announcement. This morning I already saw the news on the internet, then I tried calling you but you didn’t answer.”

That time, there was an unknown voice coming from Edith’s place, “Ms. Edith, it’s about time.”

The voice sounded a bit far.

Gloria was afraid of interfering her job, spoke quickly, “I’m okay. You can get back to work.”

“It’s not that, Gloria. That’s not what I want to say.” Edith’s tone turned serious, there was a moment of silence. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Gloria guessed she was probably checking her surrounding if there’s anyone near her, to prevent anyone from hearing what she was about to say next.

“I noticed it earlier, that the news first came out before dawn. Carl has ever told me that, he and Shi Ye had already dealt with this matter, but until now it hadn’t been put down yet. This means that, there’s someone behind the media, but the culprit is still unknown. All this time nobody has ever dared to oppose Clarke Group.”

Edith sounded a bit curious.

Gloria was just looking at the news roughly earlier, but didn’t really know what’s going on.

“It’s okay. You can just continue your work.” Gloria answered to appease Edith, “Those people who were used to afraid of opposing Clarke Group, didn’t mean that they don’t want to. Even if there’s someone supporting them now, do you think Kenny won’t be able to handle it?”

“You’re right.” It came to Edith that, there seem to be nothing that can’t be handled by Kenny.

After hanging up the phone, Gloria browsed the internet to check on the news.

Even on Microblog, the news ranked no.1, on the trending search and there were also two or three similar topic that was trending, which was also about her with Kenny and Su Mian with Tina.

However, the main topic was still about the relationship between her, Kenny, and Su Mian.

The dispute of their feelings, took up three topics and there were another topic, mainly discussing about Tina.

She didn’t really cared about the previous three topics and only clicked into “Kenny Clarke’s daughter” topic search.

“Did Kenny Clarke actually have a daughter?”

“I really envy his daughter. I always want to have such a rich father. He looked like a doting father from the way he hugged his daughter. This must be the real fairy tale princess, isn’t it? Wishing you tons of love and wealth!”

“From the way Kenny was holding her daughter, it can be seen that he deliberately blocked his daughter’s face. Is he afraid of other people seeing her face? Reasonably speaking, on last night dinner party a man like Kenny Clarke would surely keep the reporters away. But he kept blocking his daughter’s face tightly without even knowing that a reporter was there. Why is he so afraid of other people seeing his daughter’s face? His daughter must be ugly…”

Gloria didn’t even finished reading the Microblog, she then clicked into the user's account to see more.

The user’s Microblog account consisted mostly of the trending showbiz entertainment news. And this was a kind of Microblog account that responded negatively to the topic.

It was just a random marketing account.

Even there were almost 10,000 replies, made on his comment that was mocking on Tina’s appearance.

Gloria clicked for the replies.

Unexpectedly, the hottest replies were cursing the user.

“This user needs to be burnt to death. He’s f***ing crazy.”

“How can an adult mock about a child’s appearance on internet? Don’t you feel bad at all?”

“Even if Kenny Clarke’s daughter was the ugliest in the world, but she is still winning since she has Kenny Clarke as her father.”

“This user suffers a last stage of jealousy disease. Diagnosis completed.”

“I think the comment makes sense. Why are you afraid of showing her to anyone on a dinner party, if there’s nothing to hide about it? Isn’t it because his daughter is ugly so he’s afraid to let people know?”

Gloria saw the recent comment, sneered at it then logged out of Microblog.

She thought about what Edith said earlier. This time, the news and topics on the internet hadn’t been put down yet. There’s no doubt that someone must be secretly against Kenny now.

But who had such a great capability, to compete with Kenny?
