Kenny Clarke was aware of what Gloria Taylor told him a long time ago.
Although he had prepared for the worst, he still felt a little unbelievable as he got closer and closer to the truth.
After all, they were his relatives whose blood was thicker than water.
Manley Clarke had treated him well.
Si Chengyu was his best elder cousin.
Randy Clarke was also the gentle father in his childhood memory.
But he was indifferent while not ruthless. Facing these people, he hesitated briefly.
He did not confirm his guess right away, because he was expecting a different story.
However, now even Gloria was able to see through, how different could he expect?
All these years, too many people had been implicated. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
It needed to end now.
...
Shi waited for a whole morning, but Kenny never came back to the company nor contact him.
He tried to call, but Kenny did not answer either.
Mistaking Kenny’s behavior for the result of the quarrel with Gloria, Shi finally decided to call Gloria. Because Kenny could be very irrational in matters related to her, and Shi was worried.
"Shi? What’s the matter?" Gloria’s voice came from the other end of the line.
"Lady Gloria, did Master Kenny come to you?"
Shi Ye used to call Gloria Lady Gloria, for which Gloria corrected him several times, but he still called her that way, and Gloria had to let it go.
"Isn't he supposed to be in the company? Why would he come to me." Gloria frowned when she heard him. "He is not in the company?"
Shi Ye became even more worried after Gloria’s words.
"Uh..." Shi Ye was going to ask if she and Kenny quarreled but felt it difficult to speak.
"Just speak freely, Shi."
Shi Ye gritted his teeth and asked.
"Did you... quarrel with Master Kenny?"
After it came out of his mouth, Shi regretted at once.
What kind of assistant was he? In addition to caring about Kenny Clarke's whereabouts, schedule, daily life, and his romantic relationship as well...
But Gloria did not think too much and just answered directly.
"No, of course, I didn’t. Who dares to mess with him!"
"No?" That was not the answer he expected. "But Master Kenny smoked a whole pack of cigarettes this morning."
"Huh? What happened?" Gloria rose quickly and walked to the door as she said.
"I don't know. Master Kenny went out this morning and has not returned yet." Shi sounded serious.
"I see. I’m going to look for him right now." Gloria hung up the phone before starting the car.
Something must happen, or Kenny would not do such a thing like smoking a whole pack to hurt himself.
But he was fine when going out to work. What happened for this several hours in his company?
Gloria called Kenny while driving, but he did not answer and only texted her with one word: What?
She texted him back to ask where he was, but he went silent again.
Then Gloria went to everyplace Kenny might show up, but she found nothing.
"Hey, Gloria, what's up?" Gloria called Carl at last, and Carl said hello in a particularly eager tone because he felt guilty for wronging Gloria last time.
"Did you see Kenny?" Gloria asked directly.
Although Kenny texted her so Gloria knew he was at least still breathing, yet it could not ease her much, and through Shi's description, Gloria was sure Kenny was in a terribly bad mood.
"Well, of course not. How could a peasant like me get the chance to meet Your Majesty." Speaking of this, Carl rolled his eyes.
"Okay, I see."Gloria Taylor sighed,
"Why ask? Something wrong?" Carl asked in a hurry before Gloria hung up.
"Well, I couldn’t find him anywhere. I mean, literally, everywhere."
Gloria was upset.
She thought she knew Kenny well, but at this time she realized how wrong she was.
"Hmm..." Carl Cook thought for a while and continued. "There is a place you must haven’t been yet."
"Where?" Gloria asked immediately.
"Cemetery!" Carl Cook replied.
...
Gloria picked up Carl and then drove to the cemetery where Kenny's mother was buried.
Kenny Clarke had never taken her there yet.
Carl sat on the seat beside Gloria and noticed a bunch of flowers in the back seat.
"Ah, you’re so sweet, Gloria."
Gloria replied to him with a slight rising in the corner of her mouth.
When they arrived at the cemetery, it suddenly began to rain, while fortunately, there were umbrellas in her car.
Carl was ahead of her to lead the way, and Gloria followed.
At this time and weather, the cemetery was very quiet with no one.
It was built on a mountain. After Gloria went up, she saw a tall figure from a distance.
"It's Kenny!" Gloria told Carl and then ran towards him.
"It's raining! Slow down! And he was just in front of you! Walking will also do just fine! Stop running, Gloria!"
But Gloria ignored him and kept running, so he had to run with Gloria with an umbrella holding in his hand.
While as a result, he found that he could not even keep up with her...
"Kenny!" Gloria ran over, holding the flowers.
It was raining heavily. Kenny's clothes were soaked, and his also black hair which was sticking to his forehead in bunches.
He looked terrible and so did Gloria.
Seeing Kenny standing here intact, Gloria was relieved a bit and then turned to look at the tombstone.
The rain was so heavy that she could not open her eyes.
