That shameless man grabbed her hand and touched her face as soon as they got inside the car.
They were sitting behind Leon Clarke and Shi Ye. Where did she supposed to hide her face?
She shrugged his hand off her, but the man laughed instead, “You’re too obeident today. I just want to stroke you.”
Gloria put on a false smile, "I'm not a cat. And you can't 'stroke' me as your will!"
"Yes, you are right." Kenny pinched her hand gently, "I want to stroke you at any time."
Gloria's lips twisted, then turned around to look at the men who sat on the front row.
Shi Ye and Leon Clarke were looking up front while sitting straight.
But, their shoulders were shaking. They were secretly laughing
Gloria Taylor was so angry that she kicked Kenny.
It didn’t hurt that much.
But, Kenny Clarke knew he couldn’t fuss more.
***
When the car stopped in front of the villa, Gloria Taylor was the first to walk out of the car. She stormed inside like a ghost was chasing her.
Leon followed behind.
But, soon, he heard a voice that sounded like a death threat, “Leon, wait for me in the study.”
Leon Clarke stopped and looked back at Kenny, “Cousin, I will not fight again next time. I know I was wrong.”
“Hm.” Kenny Clarke replied shortly, but Leon still had to go to the study.
Leon stayed inside the study with fear. His hands were trembling.
“Go ahead. Tell me why you fight.” Kenny Clarke asked Leon Clarke who was sitting in front of him. His tone was flat.
Kenny Clarke had always been cold, but people around him could tell if his mood was changing.
“I had a quarrel with my classmates and got into a fight.” Leon Clarke said, “Cousin, I know I was wrong. I will not fight again.”
But, it didn’t stop Kenny Clarke from asking, “I asked you why you fought.”
Kenny Clarke looked at Leon Clarke. He couldn’t see any mood swings in his dark eyes, but there was a hint of insight.
Leon Clarke could hide nothing from Kenny Clarke.
However, he knew that if Kenny Clarke heard that, he would surely be sad.
Leon Clarke didn’t talk. Kenny Clarke didn’t rush him either.
Leon Clarke had lived together with Kenny Clarke since he was a child. He was a trouble maker and Kenny Clarke would always clean up his mess.
However, he had never taken the initiative to admit his mistake.
Today, not only he admitted his mistake, but also Gloria kept silent on the matter.
Gloria Taylor was a bit stubborn. In her opinion, children fighting was a serious matter, but she decided not to say anything about it.
She called Kenny Clarke though. He guessed that it was about Leon Clarke’s fight at school.
But, on their way home, she said nothing.
This was weird.
“You don’t want to say anything?” Kenny Clarke waited for a while, but Leon Clarke still didn’t speak, “I will call your head teacher later.”
“No!” Leon Clarke looked up.
If Kenny Clarke called his head teacher, head teacher would definitely tell Kenny what happened. He thought that it was not good for Kenny Clarke to learn this matter from somebody else.
Leon Clarke gritted his teeth and said, “They said that my aunt was… and murdered.”
His voice was so low that he could hardly hear that word.
The room fell into suffocating silence.
Leon Clarke didn’t say anything anymore. He also dared not look up to see Kenny Clarke.
After a while, Kenny Clarke said, “Go out.”
“Cousin…” Leon Clarke looked up to see Kenny Clarke’s expression.
However, when Leon Clarke stood up, Kenny Clarke had turned around to face his desk.
Leon Clarke went out of the room.
Gloria Taylor had just changed her clothes. She came out of her room and went downstairs.
While passing Kenny Clarke’s study, she saw Leon Clarke coming out.
“Did your cousin ask you anything?” Gloria Taylor quickly went up.
He nodded, hesitated a little and said, “I told him everything.”
Gloria Taylor was shocked and said, “Then he—”
Leon Clarke shook his head.
Gloria Taylor looked through the slightly opened door. She hesitated, but then knocked at the door, “What would you like to eat tonight, Kenny?”
He didn’t answer her.
Leon Clarke said with concern, ‘My mother said that after the accident, cousin locked himself in the room for a long time without seeing anybody.”
Gloria Taylor thought there was another thing.
She realized that Kenny Clarke’s reaction was highly unusual. It was the case, could it be what Tao Bing said was true? Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
She was unclear about that, but she did heard some rumors related to his mother.
His mother came from a scholarly family. She was beautiful and talented compared to other high-class celebrities of Shanghai.
Finally, she married the Clarke family.
But, how could a prominent woman die a painful death?
Gloria Taylor asked hesitantly, “What happened after that?”
“After that?” Leon Clarke scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, “My mother said that it was because of me, cousin was able to socialize again. I was born at that time when my cousin didn’t care much about his surrounding, but he liked teasing me. When I was a child, I spent more time with my cousin than with my parents.”
Gloria Taylor didn’t know this thing before.
However, Kenny Clarke and Leon Clarke got along very well that they grew a tightknit relationship.
Kenny Clarke lied to her and said that he was Leon Clarke. It was enough to show her that Leon Clarke was an important person for him.
Gloria Taylor glanced the door again. But, instead of knocking, she turned around and went downstairs to the kitchen.
Kenny Clarke loved food with strong flavor. She cooked a salty and spicy dishes for him.
After that, she brought it upstairs. She knocked at the door, “It’s time to eat.”
No one answered.
Just when she thought that Kenny Clarke would not reply, she heard his hoarse and cold voice from inside, “Don’t bother me.”
She was stunned.
Whether it was the fake Leon Clarke or Kenny Clarke, both didn’t talk to her this way.
Kenny Clarke was probably in a bad mood. She didn’t mind.
She kept her composure and said again, “I bring the meals up for you.”
