Gloria Taylor walked out of the villa. She was not far ahead when she heard a car honking from behind.
Gloria Taylor looked back and saw the car stopped right beside her.
The window rolled down revealing Leon Clarke’s handsome, but aggressive face. But for Gloria, this face was really annoying.
He squinted and said in a low voice, “Get in the car. I’ll take you to work.”
“No.” Gloria Taylor refused. She didn’t want people to watch her again.
She could already imagine the scene when Leon Clarke sent her to the company, people would certainly watched her and there would be a lot of gossip.
Leon Clarke hooked his lips and smiled. There was something terrifying in his eyes. He asked, “What are you afraid of?”
What was she afraid of?
Gloria Taylor realized that her cold behavior toward Leon Clarke was actually out of fear.
She had been acting distant and moody, but she had to admit that he was an outstanding man.
Arrogance seemed to be carved in his bones and it made him confident. He was born to be attractive.
Sometimes, he gave off a bad aura, but when he was nice to her, he was genuinely good.
Women would easily fell for a man like him.
Therefore, Gloria Taylor had always consciously avoided and treated him coldly.
She bore the title of Mrs. Clarke and this would follow her all her life. She thought that she must know herself and her duty better.
She was also afraid that she would fall for him.
Seeing Gloria Taylor in daze, Kenny Clarke teased her, “Do you secretly have a wild desire for me?”
“I don’t!” she immediately replied.
She pulled her car door open and seated on the co-pilot position.
Leon Clarke was looking at the front with a calm expression, but his eyes exposed his mind.
Out of guilty conscience, Gloria Taylor didn’t look at him. She looked out of the window and asked, “How much is your car?”
“It’s not expensive.” He replied.
Gloria Taylor was a little surprised. This car was very rare. When she was still at school, her rich friends would have their drivers picked them up the school gate driving various famous cars like Bentley, but she had never seen this one.
She thought that this car must be one of a kind-ly expensive.
Kenny Clarke gave her a look, “They stopped their production a couple years ago.”
“I am just…” asking for no reason.
“If you want it, you can say it in a nicer way and maybe, I can give it to you.” he cut her off.
Gloria Taylor’s face changed after she realized what he meant.
If was understandable that Kenny Clarke wanted to give a car to her, but if it was Leon Clarke, she felt that it was a bit inappropriate.
After that, they drove to the company in silence.
