Both of them were breathing heavily.
Kenny’s big palm was placed on her fist, folded gently. He easily placed her hand in his, then he said with an incredibly soft tone, “Will you marry me?”
“Hmm..” Gloria was only half conscious right now and it was completely an unconscious response.
The next moment, she was rained with kisses all over her face and body.
…..
The early morning sun shone in through the window and the soft light came in through the cracks of the curtains.
Inside the bedroom, two people were lying on the bed sleeping soundly.
At that time, suddenly the phone on the bedside vibrated. Then, the evocative ringtone of the phone shattered this peaceful morning.
Gloria buried her head in the blanket completely and vaguely heard the phone ringing. She didn’t draw the blanket away, instead she habitually stretched out her white arms to fumble for the phone on the bedside .
Unlike the usual, this time she didn’t even touch her cellphone, but the ringtone had stopped.
Gloria half-opened eyes and pulled the blanket away. Before she got up, she heard a hoarse voice next to her, “It’s still early. Go back to sleep.”
As the man was talking, he also tucked her in.
Gloria frowned slightly, then followed the sound. There, she saw Kenny’s triumphant face.
Kenny saw Gloria squinted slightly at him, looking a bit sleepy and lazy. His eyes couldn’t help but softened a little.
He lightly kissed Gloria’s forehead, took her into his arms again, “Go to sleep.”
Gloria was indeed a little tired last night, but now she was coaxed by Kenny’s nice and gentle voice. She actually closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
The next time Gloria woke up, she heard Kenny was answering his phone carefully in a low voice as soon as she opened her eyes.
She was holding her upper body when she saw Kenny with a bath towel around his body. He was heading out with the phone in his hand, while lowering his voice to talk to the person on the other side.
His voice was muffled up, then he was heading outside again. Gloria couldn’t get what he was saying clearly.
She could only heard individual words and characters vaguely.
“Rice bucket… this… can’t do anything right….you.. he’s not…”
Gloria listened to the few words randomly, but still couldn’t figure out what he said.
This time Kenny had already walked to the door and headed outside. He could have closed the door without looking and headed out directly. That way, he won’t notice Gloria had awoken.
Instead when touching the door knob, he turned his head and glanced towards the bed, as if he was intended to check if Gloria was still asleep.
That way, their gaze met in the air.
Kenny stopped closing the door and directly hung up the phone. He turned around, walked to the bedside, “Why are you awake? Get more sleep.”
She withdrew herself into the blanket. What happened last night came to her mind suddenly…
Obviously she and Kenny were having a fight, they were talking about James. How did they end up together?
“Get some more sleep.” Kenny patted her head then tucked her in easily.
Gloria pulled the blanket over her head and stopped looking at Kenny.
After Kenny went out, Gloria sat up holding the blanket and turned around to take the phone at the bedside table.
There were several missed call on her phone. Some were from Edith and some were from Shi Ye. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Shi Ye called her, simply just to find Kenny.
Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but blushed.
The reason Shi Ye called her, must be because Kenny wasn’t seen at his house and he also didn’t answer his phone. So the phone call came to her.
Shi Ye probably guessed that, Kenny spent the night here.
Gloria frowned and took a deep breath, before getting out from bed to look for clothes to wear.
After she got dressed, Kenny came in.
He saw Gloria was neatly dressed and sitting at the bed, looking at her phone. He paused for a while before walking towards her, “Not sleeping anymore?”
He sat down by the bedside. Then reaching out naturally intending to take away Gloria’s phone and put it aside.
Gloria turned sideways to avoid his hand. Then she turned the phone screen to him afterward, gesturing him to look at her phone.
When Kenny saw what’s on her phone, his expression remained unchanged. Indicating he already saw those things earlier.
Those things were no other than the scandal news between him and Su Mian.
The dinner party last night was invaded by reporter. There were many pictures of Kenny and Su Mian standing and sitting together, that were captured.
Although both of them were not seemed to be close, but because of the tricky camera angle, Kenny and Su Mian looked intimate.
The most intimate photo was probably, the one in which Kenny took over Tina from Su Mian.
Fortunately Kenny was cautious, when he took Tina from Su Mian, he didn’t let her face shown.
Even by a professional photographer, couldn't even capture Tina’s full face picture. This was enough to show how cautious Kenny was.
Nonetheless, reporters took these photos, compiled them into stories and posted them on the internet. They were being reprinted by major media and now they were all over the internet.
Kenny took the phone over, facing the screen down on the bed. He then stared at Gloria intently and said in a serious tone, “Gloria, you don’t have to pay attention to such useless things. They are all fake. I’ll ask people to deal with it as soon as possible. You only need to prepare to be my bride.”
“What bride?” She understood what Kenny said earlier, but she didn’t quite understand the last sentence.
She didn’t recall that she had agreed to marry Kenny.
“You have already forgotten about your promise last night, haven’t you?” Kenny’s eyes squinted slightly, his words sounded threatening.
Gloria asked hesitantly, “When did I promise you?”
If she really agreed, how come she didn’t recall at all?
Surely it was Kenny again who dug a hole and made her jump.
