My Love, Enlighten me

Gloria had to limp because her sprained foot were in great pain.

And she could feel Kenny’s gaze which is sharp like a knife stabbing her back. But biting her lips, she made it to the elevator and did not halt a single second.

The door was closing, but no one tried to catch up.

As the door closed, sorrow came up on her mind.

Down the elevator went, so did her heart.

...

Leon was waiting outside of the elevator.

And he happened to see Gloria walking out of the elevator with red eyes and bare feet.

“Gloria.” He went to help her in a hurry.

“Leon?” The sprained foot can barely touch the ground, so she had to lean her body on him.

“Si Chengyu...He...He didn’t mean to... ” Leon was almost whispering and as he was saying, he checked on her expression carefully.

“I got it.” She did not react little.

Whether Si Chengyu was taking advantage of her did not matter to Gloria.

What mattered to her was the attitude of Kenny.

It was Kenny that talked her into that banquet and she came, but still he lost temper at her.

And even if Si Chengyu had taken advantage of her, it was unacceptable for Gloria that Kenny was mad at her for that.

Leon noticed that she was in a bad mood, so he just held her arm to walk carefully without speaking.

He had been here before Kenny and seen Gloria dragged out of the banquet hall and getting in the elevator alone after a quarrel.

Comparing pushing Kenny to go after Gloria at that moment, it had been easier for Leon to run down stairs and wait for Gloria.

“Who’s Qing Ning?” Gloria interrupted his thought.
