Gloria returned to the car and fell into thought.
When James received her call at noon, his reaction was a bit weird.
And the words of the assistant just now made Gloria feel a little confused.
James's assistant said that she ordered takeout for James at noon, which meant that James did not go to Jinding.
There was no need for his assistant to lie to her about such a trivial matter.
If what the assistant said was true, then who was the "James" she met at Jinding at noon?
Were there really two people who looked exactly the same in the world?
Gloria had never encountered two completely unrelated people who looked exactly alike.
At best, twins would look alike.
However, not all twins looked exactly the same.
Kenny and Aurora were twins. Although the two were siblings, they looked very similar in terms of appearance and facial features.
So far, what she knew about James was only related to him.
As for his family, relatives and other friends, she knew nothing about them.
Thinking about it this way, she couldn't rule out the possibility that James had twin brothers.
Gloria glanced at James's psychological clinic through the car window before starting the car and leaving.
No matter how much she thought about it, it was just her guess.
Only by finding James could she know the truth.
...
When Gloria drove back to the villa, she saw Kenny's car park at the gate of the villa.
She checked the time. It was just five o'clock in the afternoon.
Did Kenny get off work so early on this day?
When she just thought of this, the door of Kenny's car was opened from inside.
The next moment, Kenny's tall and straight figure came out of the car and appeared in Gloria's sight.
The temperature dropped again on this day, but Kenny was still wearing a thin suit, standing there straight, and looking at Gloria.
His expression remained unchanged, as if he was not cold at all.
Gloria hesitated, opened the door and got out of the car, and walked in Kenny's direction.
She stopped at the place that was two steps away from Kenny.
When she looked at Kenny, Kenny was also looking at her.
The two looked at each other in silence for a few seconds, and Gloria asked him, "You got off work so early?"
Almost at the same time, Kenny said, "Where have you been?"
After they finished speaking, they both paused.
Kenny's eyebrows were knitted. The emotions in Kenny's eyes were complex and indecipherable.
Gloria knew that if she didn't speak first, Kenny would not speak first either.
"Shouldn't you know exactly where I've been?" He sent bodyguards early in the morning to follow her after she left the house in the morning. Those bodyguards would definitely tell Kenny about her movements.
She remembered that when she married Kenny back then, there was not even a maid in his villa, but all bodyguards.
She didn't know what magic power Kenny had. His bodyguards were all extremely loyal to him.
When Kenny heard her words, the corners of his mouth curved into ice-cold arcs. He looked a little gloomy and asked her coldly, "Where did you come back from?"
The look in his eyes told Gloria that he had figured out that she had been to James's place.
She was too naive, thinking that it would be fine if she got rid of the bodyguards assigned to her by Kenny. With Kenny's acumen, how could it be possible for her to hide it from him?
Gloria pressed her lips and chose to tell the truth, "James's psychological clinic!"
Anyway, Kenny had already figured it out, it was meaningless for her to cover it up.
Yesterday, they had already quarreled over the matter of James. Gloria could tell that Kenny was angry again. He just didn't show it.
If she kept covering it up at this time, Kenny might be even more angry.
"Ah!" Kenny just sneered. Without saying anything, he turned around and went in.
Gloria stared at the view of his back for a moment, then strode to catch up, "Kenny!"
When Kenny heard her calling him, instead of stopping, he quickened his pace.
Gloria also quickened her pace and explained to him as she walked, "I went to see James because there was a proper business. Moreover, he was not in the psychological clinic, and I did not see him."
Kenny still ignored her. Gloria was angry and ran forward to grab him.
She stood in front of him and shivered when she saw his expression.
His expression was frighteningly cold.
She was looked at by his cold eyes, and subconsciously let go her grip on his arm.
Kenny looked down at her, and the words came out like they were squeezed out of his teeth one word at a time.
"If you saw him, when would you come back? Tonight, or tomorrow morning, or you won't come back?"
When he said this, the way he looked at her was as if he was looking at a wife who had just returned from an affair.
Gloria was enraged by his words and couldn't restrain herself from raising her hand. When she looked into Kenny's cold eyes, she clenched her hand that was in the air and took it back abruptly.
"I will explain to you one last time. There is nothing between James and me. Believe it or not." With that, Gloria took a look out of the villa.
If it was her who hadn't given birth to Tina a few years ago, facing this situation, she might have just rushed out.
However, when she left home in the morning, she told Tina that she would come back in the evening and make meatballs for her.
She was angry with Kenny, but she couldn't fail to fulfill what she had said to Tina.
After the incident at the last banquet, she had told Tina that she would keep her word in the future.
Gloria took a deep breath and turned towards the direction of the living room.
The location where she and Kenny were just now was in the middle of the courtyard of the villa, which was a little away from the door of the living room.
During this short distance, Gloria calmed down.
As soon as she entered the living room, the maid bowed respectfully, "Young hostess!"
Gloria asked her, "Where is Tina?"
Before the maid could speak, Tina's voice came over, "Tina is here!"
Gloria followed the sound, and saw Tina being led downstairs by a maid.
She had a drawing book in her hand and came down from upstairs with a bounce.
Seeing Gloria looking at her, she raised the drawing book in her hand and said cheerfully, "Look, mommy, I drew two big apples."
"Okay, walk steadily. You shouldn't jump on the stairs. Mom is here to wait for you to come down." The unhappiness in Gloria's heart disappeared after she saw Tina.
