My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 367 Is This My Obligation?

Edith and Carl were stunned.

They looked at each other and saw surprise in the eyes.

Edith knew Gloria when they were in high school. Before that, Gloria had been alone and didn't seem to have any friends.

But James seemed not to tell a lie at all.

James continued: "as for how I got to know her, I don't think it's necessary to tell Miss Hall."

When he spoke, his eyes were still staring at the elevator door. He was calm and indifferent, but there was a steady momentum in his voice.

"Mr. Moore, you..."

Edith was about to say something but she was interrupted by the arrival sound of the elevator.

James turned his head and looked at Edith and said faintly, "here we are."

The three walked out of the elevator.

Edith went to James and stopped his way: "how can I know if you are lying."

"If you are not her friend, I might not have given you a chance to question me." The calm on James's face disappeared. And his eyes darkened. It looked like he was angry.

Edith's face changed slightly: "since you know she has friends, why don't you contact us when you find her?"

"Why do I contact you? Is this my obligation?" James raised up the corner of his lips and snorted.

"You..."

Without waiting for Edith to say something, Carl pulled her behind him.

Carl's face was not very good: "at least, we are sincere friends of Gloria. How about you?"

James directly ignored Carl's question, raised his wrist and looked at the time: "I still have a few patients in the afternoon. Bye."

With that, he strode toward the parking lot.

Carl turned his head and looked at Edith. Seeing the worry on her face, Carl could not help but say, "or, we take Gloria away?"

"Gloria won't go with us. No matter how James and Gloria know each other, I can see that he is really good to Gloria and won't do anything to hurt Gloria."

Edith stopped and said, "besides, James has taken care of Gloria for three years. It's not kind of us to take Gloria away quietly."

Just then, Carl's mobile phone rang.

He answered the phone and the person on the other end of the phone said something to him. He said, "well, send it to me now."

"What?" Edith asked him curiously.

Carl replied: "I let people investigate James."

When they returned to the car, Carl received an email from his subordinates.

He read: "James, doctor of criminal psychology, once employed by a criminal investigation detachment as a criminal psychological consultant..."

Finally, Carl also can't help but admire James, "resume is very pure. He is a talent."

"Yes." Edith couldn't help nodding.

But the doubts in her heart were becoming more and more serious.

…

Gloria lived in a peaceful life.

During the day, James went to the clinic to work. She was alone at home and had a very small room to stay.

Maybe because of her comfortable life, she was getting more and more healthier. Although she still looked very thin, she was much better than when she was just out of the hospital.

After Edith knew her phone number, she often called her.

At that day, James just went out. She received a phone call from Edith.

"Gloria, come out for shopping, I'll pick you up."

Gloria didn't really like going out, but Edith was so enthusiastic that she had to agree.

Edith came very fast. Gloria even suspected that Edith knew the time when James went out and then she came to find her.

As soon as she got into the car, Edith asked casually, "how are you getting along with Mr. Moore?"

Gloria fastened safety belt, and replied,"Not bad."

She felt that she and James were not like unmarried couples at all. Instead, they were like roommates. They had dinner together and had little communication.

But this mode of getting along made her feel at ease.

"So..." After a pause, Edith looked at her again, but finally she didn't say anything.

They went to the mall together.

Edith still liked shopping very much. She tried a lot of clothes with Gloria.

Everything was going well. But when they were out of the mall, they met reporters.

In the past three years, Edith's acting career has developed very well. Now she was a first-line actress. There were always some reporters who watched her. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

"Run!” Edith ran back with Gloria.

"What's the matter?" Although Gloria didn't understand what was going on, she still ran with her.

Edith had no choice but to explain with Gloria: "they come after me. I am an actress. Recently... I am popular. "

During this period of time, apart from watching the news occasionally, she didn't watch TV series, so she didn't know that Edith was an actress.

There were a lot of people in the shopping mall, and the reporter ran after Edith. For a while, the scene was a little chaotic.

Gloria and Edith got separated.

When Gloria went back to look for Edith. She was gone already.

She found a corner to call Edith.

The phone was answered soon.

"Gloria, I'm in the parking lot. Where are you?"

"I'm still in the mall." Gloria was relieved to hear her say so.

Edith said, "come here quickly. I'll wait for you in the car."

"Well, you can leave first. I'll go back by myself, lest those reporters come to you again..."

Of course, Edith didn't want to leave first. But finally she was persuaded by the reason that when Gloria went home, she would call her.

Gloria hung up the phone, turned around to see a little girl holding a small doll. She stood in the corner not far away from her and looked at her.

The little girl was wearing a blue and white striped coat and pink and blue shorts that had just reached the knee. Her eyes were round and dark. Her face was chubby. Her black hair was over her shoulders, and her forehead was covered with soft bangs...

She was looking at Gloria curiously, with lovely look.

Looking at her height, Gloria guessed that she might be three or four years old.

Gloria looked around, found no adults, went to squat to her and asked her: "little girl, where are your parents?"

After getting close, Gloria just felt this little girl was very familiar.

Something was in her mind. This chubby face was the same face when she saw on the day of going out of the hospital.

God...

This was the daughter of Kenny?

What was her name? It seemed "Tina"?

Tina tilted her head to see Gloria for a few seconds, and then laughed suddenly,"beautiful sister..."

Gloria was surprised. This little girl still remembered her?

She remembered that the little girl also called her beautiful sister at that day.
