Chapter 151
Gloria still remembered that three years ago. She stood in front of that gate. She and Harry looked at each other through the gate.
Today, she looked serious and determined. Her steps were slow yet very steady. Everyone was watching them as they walked in. Patrick was born to be eye-catching. Nobody could ignore him. But today, people paid more attention to Gloria. With a little makeup, it was easier for people to recognize who she was. "That is ... Gloria?" "Why is she here?" "Why is she with Mr. Hammond?" "I thought she had disappeared." "That was a long time ago. Don't you know that? I heard from Audrey that Gloria had become a timid woman. She's no longer like before." Everyone was discussing Gloria and Patrick while looking at them. Their eyes were filled with doubt and disbelief. Harry and Alger were chatting with guests. At this moment, they looked at Gloria with gloomy expressions.Related chapters

Gloria's mind became clearer after the despair. She understood that Camille had already revealed her thoughts the moment Camille said, "I will visit you another time." "Camille, do you still consider it a kind gesture if you pay a visit?" Gloria asked. Gloria removed Camille's hand, which was grabbing her arm tightly. She pushed Camille away and said, "Will you excuse me? Camille, I'm busy." After that, Gloria turned around and walked clumsily towards Patrick in her heels. She didn't walk towards Alger and Harry again because there was no point in questioning them anymore. Standing not too far, Alger and Harry saw that Gloria was not walking towards them. They heaved a sigh of relief, but before they resumed calm, they were frightened again. "Why is she walking towards Mr. Hammond?" Alger asked Harry, looking worried. Alger had no clue, and neither was Harry. Camille was shocked and a little annoyed after Gloria pushed her awa

Gloria clenched her fists as she uttered her theory, controlling herself desperately for fear that she might rush forward and punch the man she had called Daddy for more than twenty years. Her heart ached. The people around knew that Moonlight Group was no different from worthless already, but a lot of them were still interested and kept bidding. Their voices calling out bids rang in her ears. Gloria hated that she could do nothing but stand by and watch them. She clenched her fists harder, letting her nails sink into her palms. "You've run Moonlight Group too well," Patrick said meaningfully. He reached out and unclenched her fists gently. Gloria gritted her teeth and thought, 'You are right. I've run the company so well that even though everyone here knows Moonlight Group is a shell now, they're still bidding because the company's reputation is still there.' "Any other offers?" Alger said to the guests who showed up today in high spirits

Gloria had been trembling with anger, but after Harry said that, she calmed down. Gloria raised her head and looked at the young and handsome face in front of her for a while. Suddenly, she chuckled and said, "I never knew that you were so jealous of me, Harry. Grandpa brought me up and taught me. Do you think that he favored me and I took your position? Mr. Carter, do you think that I took everything that should belong to you?" Gloria suddenly felt that she did not understand this "family" that she had spent twenty years with. "Grandpa gave me a chance, but he also gave you a chance. That summer, when it was so hot that people could fire eggs on the ground, grandpa asked us to transcribe the history of werewolves under the shade of trees. But you were playful and couldn't stand the heat. You couldn't sit still and ran to the house to play video games. I was afraid that he would punish you, so after I finished my part, I helped you finish yours. Mr. Carter, fr

People only saw Gloria's calm face, but they didn't know that she was crying inside. Patrick stood out. This incomparably dazzling man almost stopped breathing, but he did not stop or berate Gloria. Alger was also stunned by Gloria's question, but he reacted quickly and said, "The text messages on her phone were proof. How do you explain that?" If Gloria was not involved in the incident, then how could she explain those text messages and the last few calls made to her? It was hard to believe that she was innocent. Gloria chuckled with self-mockery, "No. It was not a coincidence. The person that planned to set me up, got herself in trouble as well. And I became the victim of this plot." Besides Gloria, only Gabrielle and those rogues who had disappeared knew about the truth. Unless Gloria could find those rogues, she probably would not be able to whitewash herself in this life. Back then, Alger and Camille happened to have already ai

When Daley heard Alger's words, he immediately cursed Alger for being a bastard. Because Alger didn't want to offend others, Alger asked Daley to do so. Gloria's gaze shifted to Daley. She said, "Moonlight Group was run by me and my grandfather. Why does the Middleton Family have to intervene in this matter? Mr. Middleton, you're a smart person. You should give up." She didn't even want to waste time and asked Daley to give up Moonlight Group directly. Daley was furious, but when his gaze fell on the pair of eyes behind Gloria, Daley felt extremely upset. "It would be a shame to fight with you." He had already made his stance clear. Gloria's gaze fell on Alger again as she said, "Three years ago, the decision of the Carter family was so decisive that there was no room for negotiation. We all know whether it was because you were really afraid of being involved or for other reasons. At this point, it is no longer necessary to mention the past. Alge

As soon as Derrick left the room, the people who were angry but didn't dare to say anything suddenly cursed. Derrick ignored them. He turned back and glanced at the door. He took out a cigarette and smoked. His fingers parted, and the cigarette fell to the ground silently. He stepped on it hard in his leather shoes and crushed it back and forth. He glanced out of the window with a sullen expression, raised his foot on the cigarette, and strode out. The car sped along the road, almost flying, yet he did not seem to notice it at all. His eyes were staring straight ahead. It was already almost midnight. He drove fast and finally stopped in front of the Fisher's. As soon as the car stopped, the door was pushed open. Then, Derrick got out of the car and hurried into the house. When the butler heard the noise, he immediately opened the door. However, he said as he saw Derrick, "Alpha Derrick, Curtis said that you were not allowed t

Patrick walked towards the bed and waved at her. He ordered, "Sit over here." Gloria didn't know what was going on, but under his deep gaze, she braced herself and sat closer to him. Patrick took a towel from a shelf and placed it on her head. He rubbed it gently. Then, he dried her hair with a hairdryer. After her hair was dry, he said, "From now on, don't sleep with wet hair." Patrick's action did not make Gloria feel better. On the contrary, she was about to be driven crazy by such abnormal behavior. She did not know what he was going to do, yet she could not stand his behavior like this. She would prefer Patrick treat her the same way as before. She didn't want his sudden gentleness. Finally, she closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she asked, "Why?" Patrick put down the hairdryer and tucked her hair behind her ears. Instead of answering her, he said, "Sleep tight." He turned around. Gloria wanted to

When Gloria heard what the fired receptionist said, she reached out and stopped the receptionist. She said, "I can guarantee that Moonlight Group is not just a shell company as you said." Gloria turned around and saw an employee behind her. She was a young woman. Gloria called her to come over. Gloria asked, "What is your job at the company?" The girl was a little flustered. She replied, "I am an intern. Mostly, I'm just printing documents." "Do you know how to deal with visiting clients?" Gloria asked. "I'm sorry. I haven't done that before. But I think we should treat them politely and proactively," the intern replied cautiously. Gloria nodded. "Very good. From now on, you are the receptionist of Moonlight Group." Hearing Gloria's words, the receptionist who had been fired felt humiliated. She pointed at Gloria and scolded, "How can you ask an intern to be the receptionist? I majored in administrative management! You must be
