Chapter 47 Men Paid the Bill

Gloria Taylor went out of the villa. After running pretty far, she stopped to catch her breath.

She had to stay away from ‘Leon Clarke’. This man was dangerous.

Right after the idea came out, a car stopped beside her. She turned to look at it and just in time, Kenny Clarke was rolling down the window to look at her.

When their eyes met, Gloria Taylor was blank for a moment and quickly ran away with her fastest speed.

Kenny Clarke drove the car just as fast to follow her closely. He kept the car parallel to her. In a low voice, he said commandingly, “Get in the car.”

“no.” she said and she continued to walk.

Kenny Clarke understood that she was clearly drawing a line with him.

Gloria Taylor continued walking for a while and felt that the car was no longer following her. She stopped and looked back.

She saw Kenny Clarke coming toward her with a cold and aggressive face.

He had long legs. So, he caught up in no time. Without saying anything, he picked her up and shoved her back into the car.

Gloria Taylor was stunned.

She smiled angrily, “Leon! Will you stop humiliating me?”

“Who is the one making trouble?” Kenny Clarke glanced at her coldly. He continued to drive.

“You’re making a scene!” Gloria Taylor snapped at him.

Kenny Clarke ignored her. He only said, “Address.”

Gloria Taylor didn’t reply. Kenny Clarke quickly stretched out his hand to her pocket to take her phone. He opened Tina Walker’s message.

“You overheard me talking on the phone, didn’t you?” Otherwise, how would he know that she was going to see Tina Walker?

***

Soon, they arrived at the restaurant Tina Walker had told her.

Before Gloria Taylor got off the car, she saw Tina Walker through the window of the restaurant. She looked like she had been waiting there for a long time.

Tina Walker was sitting by window. She looked at her watch from time to time and occasionally she looked outside. There was no one beside her.

Kenny Clarke looked at Tina Walker, then he looked at Gloria Taylor who was obviously reluctant to meet her, “Are you going to sit in the car and watch her like this?”

Gloria Taylor didn’t say anything, she just gave him a look.

She wanted to let Tina Walker know how waiting felt like.

Kenny Clarke looked out of car window and saw a restaurant across the street. Then he started the car and drove to the parking lot of the restaurant across the street. He took Gloria Taylor off the car to the restaurant.

He took Gloria directly to the second floor and chose a table by the window. Looking out from here, they could see Tina Walker across the street.

The waiter came over with the menu and ready to take their order. Kenny Clarke gave the menu to Gloria Taylor.

She looked up at Kenny Clarke. She didn’t say anything and he seemed to know what she was thinking. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

“What are you looking at? Order.”

Gloria Taylor was confused. How did he know she was looking at him? He was looking down his phone all along. Did he have eyes over his head?

Oh, just forget it. Anyway, they had been here. She should be more relaxed. With that, she immediately ordered her meal.

Kenny Clarke ordered two dishes.

Before the dishes were served, Gloria Taylor involuntarily looked at Tina Walker across the street.

After making a scene, ‘Leon Clarke’ didn’t say much.

“This is the first time she asked me to have dinner with her.” Soon after, she saw a car stop in front of the restaurant across the street. Then, Anne Taylor came out.

She laughed scornfully, “I know that it’s impossible for her to invite me purely for the meal.”

Anne Taylor directly went to the table where Tina Walker was sitting. Because of the distance, she couldn’t hear what they were saying, but judging from the scene, Anne Taylor was losing her temper and Tina Walker was busy comforting her.

They argued for a while. Tina Walker bowed her head and picked up her phone. Soon, Gloria Taylor’s phone rang.

“Hello?” she picked it up.

“Gloria, why haven’t you came yet? Didn’t you agree to have a meal together?” Tina Walker sounded pissed and impatient.

“I’m still on the car. The traffic sucks.” Gloria Taylor said blandly.

Tina Walker breathed a sigh of relief, “Hurry up.”

After hanging up the phone, Gloria Taylor saw Tina Walker talking to Anne Taylor. Anne Taylor left the table, but she didn’t leave the restaurant.

After what happened last night, Anne Taylor couldn’t wait to see how miserable Gloria was. Anne Taylor thought that Gloria Taylor was raped by those men.

If so, should she really show up and hit Anne Taylor?

This moment, the waiter served the food. Kenny Clarke’s voice made her return to her senses, “Eat.”

Gloria Taylor suddenly remembered the last time when he was sick, he was so confused that he started calling out his mother. She was curious, “You have been living in Kenny’s house. Where is your parents?”

Right after she asked the question, ‘Leon Clarke’ who was stuffing food to his mouth stopped in midair. His face was complicated.

Gloria Taylor felt that she just asked the wrong question. She quickly put some dishes to his plate, “You should eat more.”

Then, they finished their meal in silence.

When they were paying the bill, Gloria Taylor stepped in front of him. But, Kenny Clarke pulled her aside with one hand. After paying the bill, he turned to her and said, “It is only natural for man to pay the bill.”

“But, I;m your sister-in-law, I should pay the bill.” Gloria Taylor replied.

“I have already paid the bill. If you mind…” Kenny Clarke leaned closer and whispered, “You can give me a kiss and that will settle it.”

“…” she thought that she better off dead.

Gloria Taylor shrugged his hands off and left the restaurant.

Kenny Clarke watched her back as she left and smiled.

***

In the end, Gloria Taylor didn’t go to the restaurant across the street to see Tina Walker. She and ‘Leon Clarke’ went straight home.

Tina Walker called her repeatedly but she didn’t answer.

She thought that the matter was over. But, early in the morning, she received a call from Loren Taylor.

“Gloria, are you looking for a job? Why don’t you come to our company to work? You don’t have to look for job at other places.” Loren Taylor said with great sincerity that Gloria Taylor was almost convinced.

She casually replied, “I already found a job.”

Between Taylor Company and Shengding Company, she would naturally choose the latter. She didn’t have to consider.

Loren Taylor was silent for a moment as if he was thinking of something, “What about I give you shares if you come here to work?”

Shares?

Gloria Taylor couldn’t help sitting up straight. She thought that she heard it wrong.

Anne Taylor and her brother both held shares in the Taylor Company. They received dividend each year. Tina Walker had her shares as well, though not so much, she did have some.
