Chapter 255 Plenty of Opportunities
“Wrong time?”
Jordy left the door unclosed. When Gloria arrived, she happened to see the affectionate couple
inside the ward.
The smile on Angela’s face froze, but she soon said with a smile, “Gloria, you’re here. Come on in!”
With wariness in her eyes, she looked at Gloria and wondered how much the latter had overheard her speech. On the day of the party, she failed to make things clear. If Gloria challenged her now, the positive image she had just created would collapse for sure.
Jordy’s penetrating gaze darted over. Emotions mixed in his eyes.
Gloria curled her lips. Indeed, she had heard Angela’s explanation about the party. As for how Jordy thought of it, she didn’t care, and neither did she have the intention of mentioning it.
Following a glance at Jordy, she said with a smile, “Mr. Collins, I heard that you would work overtime tonight and thus came to visit Angela. I didn’t expect to see you here. I’m sorry for the interruption.”
Gloria put the basket of fruit on the table.
Angela was relieved that Gloria didn’t bring up that matter. She turned to look at Jordy, only to find him staring at Gloria.
She was delighted, believing that Jordy was dissatisfied with Gloria even more.
Holding onto Jordy’s arm, she picked up the conversation and said with concern, “My injury is not serious, Jordy. You don’t have to come often. I’ll feel guilty for interrupting your work.”
Gloria looked at the intimate couple and curled her lips.
Jordy intended to pull his arm out but dismissed the thought since Gloria was there. Instead, he said in a gentle voice, “No work is as important as you are,”
Gloria was stunned.
