You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Why does Judy, a nurse who worked in a public hospital can be so rich now? She looked filthy rich. Gloria wondered.

Gloria cautiously snooped around, asking about Judy while trying to recall about the latter.

“Gloria, I was the midwife who helped Hilary during her delivery. I was young and naive then. I remembered you even gave me a present.”

Gloria was able to refresh her memory with Judy’s help.

“It was you? Judy the nurse? It has been almost thirty years since we last met. You look healthy and happy. You must be doing well.”

Judy chuckled, “Just the usual. I remembered you were very concerned for Hilary at her delivery when she’s merely your sister-in-law. Hilary and her child must be treating you well nowadays.”

Judy knowingly mentioned Hilary’s and her child’s treatment of Gloria. She smiled awkwardly when Gloria’s face turned dark.

“They sure do.”

Yet Judy continued, “I saw you in the shop a while ago with a pretty girl beside you. Was that your niece? But she doesn’t seem to treat you very kindly.”

“You saw that? It was nothing. There’s just a minor misunderstanding between us.”

Judy sneered, “Misunderstanding? Please don’t try to hide it from me. I saw everything clearly. You and your niece were arguing as though you were enemies instead of family. One glance at your niece, and I could see that she’s wealthy. Didn’t she know how well you had treated her before? Such an ungrateful girl.”

Gloria felt that she had found someone who could understand and empathize with her. Thus, Gloria confided and complained about how ungrateful Clarissa was.

Judy invited Gloria to a meal at a high-end restaurant to continue their talk. Gloria blurted almost everything about Clarissa, from the things she was unsatisfied about Clarissa to the reason Clarissa was still not married to a wealthy household.

“So Judy, can you blame me? This is all because Clarissa was unlucky. The rich looked down at her because she came from a humble family. How dare she despises us when it was because of her own unluckiness?”

Judy was immersed in her deep thoughts. Her eyes glinted.

“You’re absolutely right, Gloria. It wasn’t your fault. You can even say that it is Clarissa’s mother’s fault because Clarissa wasn’t born with a golden spoon.”

“Excellent point, Judy. It was just as you’ve said.”

Gloria wanted to continue the talk, but Judy suddenly rose to her feet.

“Gloria, I’m sorry. I have something urgent, so I have to leave immediately. But please enjoy your meal. This meal is on me.”
