Chapter 25 You Thought You're Better Than Grace?
Chapter 25 You Thought You're Better Than Grace?
Ruby became gloomy after hearing Gloria's humiliating words.
She got angry at Gloria, “Gloria, who are you to humiliate me! I am indeed a waiter in the Royal Club,
but I earn clean money with my own hard work!
I earned every penny with my own hard work! None of it was earned like Grace who traded her dignity
for it. I think I've lived very
magnanimously. Why should a pure human like me get humiliated?”
Gloria couldn't help laughing, “Ruby, I'm telling you that if Grace hadn't helped you out that day... Just
by disrespecting the son of Joseph's family, you would be getting the same treatment from him as
Grace today... Oh no, you still can't compare to Grace!”
Gloria smiled in depreciation, “You couldn't do the things Grace could.”
“Of course I can't, I would never do things as shameless and undignified like that in my life.”
Gloria nodded, “I hope you can still say that after a week.”
She's tired of wasting her words with that pure girl, if after getting forced by people Ruby can still be so
pure, then that's the real purity.
"One's choice can lead to one's fall. Let alone a week, even a month, a year, all my life I'll say so. I will
never do what Grace did for money.”
Gloria said ‘oh’ and looked away from Ruby, “Okay, you can go out.”
“Then Gloria, I'll go back to work.” Ruby turned around.
When Ruby reached the door, she heard Gloria from her back, “Ruby, you must remember that,
Grace's suffering today was what you should have bear by offending the son of Joseph's family. In this
world, there'll always be something that can make you lower your head. Since you treated Grace like
that, then I have no need to protect you.”
Ruby objected, she had never felt Gloria's protection since she entered the Royal Club. After a deep
thought, Gloria's protection was bull shit.
However, soon enough, Ruby finally understand how important Gloria's protection was in the Royal
Club.
In the Royal Club, waiters would probably get teased a little by the customers, but there wouldn't be
anything over the line. This was due to the Royal Club's reputation and power, and also Gloria's
principles.
After Ruby left Gloria's office, very soon, a problem showed up at the Royal Club.
Ruby didn't feel it at first, but another student from S University who's pretty close to her secretly asked,
“What have you done to offend Gloria?”
Ruby was angry to hear that, “Gloria wanted to punish me?”
“Stop joking, Gloria would never do anything to waiters just because they did something wrong. Gloria
would only refuse to take care of them.”
Ruby pouted, “I thought it was a huge matter, she just hates me right? I can just avoid her.”
“You... Up to you, just take care of yourself.” the waiter who's pretty close to Ruby didn't talk much.
Ruby seemed not to care about that matter and if Ruby didn't, why should an outsider like her meddle
with and talk about it.
Gloria sat in the office without thinking too much about Ruby's matter.
This time, not only Ruby didn't understand how to be thankful, she even ridiculed people who had
helped her. Otherwise, Gloria wouldn't be angry with a mere waiter.
Yes! She admitted that she's a bit partial towards Grace. Seeing Grace was just like seeing her own
self at that time. Thinking of her struggles at that time, Gloria couldn't help protecting the stupid Grace
more.
But if Ruby didn't look for trouble herself, Gloria wouldn't be so cold either.
She had already asked about what happened in the 606 VIP room clearly. Just as she said, Grace
meddled to help Ruby out and took the guests’ insult in her place. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
If Grace didn't help Ruby out, according to the situation in that VIP room... Gloria guessed that Caden
wouldn't have recognized Grace.
Gloria stood up, right when she wanted to go out of the office, she ran into Caden and Humbert.
“President Shaw, Mr. White.”
Humbert made a joke, “Gloria you're throwing yourself to his arms?” of course not, Gloria just
happened to bump into Caden's arms when she had just walked out of the office.
Caden gave no reaction. He pushed Gloria after setting her straight.
That scene incited another of Humbert's joke,
“Caden, you don't understand how to love a woman, such a beautiful lady like Gloria threw herself at
you and you just pushed her away like that?”
“Do you want her? I'll let you.” after saying that coldly, Caden pushed Gloria to Humbert's arms, “Gloria
is my right-hand woman, Humbert, you must treat her well.”
“Eh...” I was wrong, I shouldn't have made fun of him!
Humbert wanted to cry.
Gloria pushed Humbert away calmly and tidied her clothes before looking at Caden, “President Shaw,
Grace...”
“Can't die.”
Gloria was stunned by Caden’s words... His words always made people speechless.
“Oh... Recently my underling was restless, spread some gossip and disturbed others. I'm going to have
a talk with them.” it's the first time for Gloria to speak off the point.
However, Caden seemed to understand and moved his black eyes, “Whose gossip?”
“Grace.” Gloria said, “What happened at 606 VIP room that day was leaked out. Now everyone at
Royal Club knows what happened to Grace in the VIP room.”
She just said that without the details.
She just said that what happened to Grace in the VIP room was leaked out, but she didn't say what
happened to Grace inside the VIP room. However, Caden understood it at once!
All of the sudden, his original clam eyes sharply staring at Gloria's face. Caden asked with his deep
and cold voice, “Who leaked it out?”
“I just knew it not long ago too.”
If she didn't ask Ruby just now, Gloria wouldn't have known either. After all, that matter was spread
behind her for two days only.
After hesitating, Gloria said, “If my guess is right, it's Luna, the escort of 606 VIP room.” that day she
caught Luna peeping in front of the VIP room by accident. Else than Luna, she mentioned no one else.
“Ask her to come.” Caden squinted coldly and asked Gloria, “What's wrong with Grace's throat?”
Gloria had already felt suspicious at the night where Grace handed her 50 thousand yuan, so she had
also investigated that matter.
“Queena, the new comer from the PR department dragged Grace to her guest's VIP room. She might
have wanted to mess with Grace and told Grace to sing almost 50 songs with high pitches.”
