Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2290

Gloria deliberately switched off her phone. She had already figured that since James was able to find out about her name, he certainly would be able to find out about his family background. If he was able to find out about her family background, then he certainly would be able to know her phone number as well. She simply wanted t o ignore James for a while.

That day when James did not manage to reach Gloria through her phone, he was actually very annoyed. At the same time, h e was also a little disheartened. He originally thought that an old lady like Gloria who had no men by her side and had never been cared for since childhood would enjoy it very much when a man finally hit on her. However, he never expected that Gloria would actually switch off her phone. James had a feeling that he was unable to control this woman. He felt agitated and he kept pacing back and forth outside of the place where the senior citizen dance group was practicing. In the end, he only left after he no longer was able to wait for Gloria to appear anymore.

When he returned to the place where he and his gang were staying, he immediately cursed, "Fuck, this old woman is truly very difficult to handle. She is not at all like how we imagined her to be!"

"No matter how hard it is, you'll also have t o do it. This is a fat pig. If we could slaughter this pig, we would no longer have to cast our net for the next target for a few years."

This conversation was originally something that Gloria was not supposed to know. It was divulged when this gang was giving their statements to the authorities. The entire gang knew that if they were able to trick Gloria, then they would absolutely make a huge sum.

James called Gloria's number countless times that day, but Gloria's phone remained switched off. The next morning, after James got up to start working, he tried calling Gloria's phone again. He was thinking to himself that if the call still could not get through, he would then stand by at the senior citizen dance group. It was not as if Gloria would never be going to the dance practice with the senior citizen dance group anymore, right? Even if she truly never went to the dance practice with the dance group anymore, James was also able to wait for Gloria at her house.

However, if he were to do that, his intentions would be too obvious. Therefore, he still could not do that for the time being.

Once James dialed the numbers and made the call, he kept chanting in his heart, 'It must get through. It must get through.’ After a single dial tone, the call was answered. At that moment, James unexpectedly became so excited that his heart was pounding out of his chest. He secretly cursed in his heart, 'Old woman! You're quite good at torturing people!'

On the other end of the line, Gloria said breathlessly, "Hello, who is it?"

That voice was very soft and very gentle, and it had the charm of maturity, as well as a sickly softness. For a moment, James was actually stunned by what he heard. "M-Miss Shaw, is that you?"

For some reason, he did his best to not sound superficial and was very careful when he spoke. Also, without waiting for Gloria to say anything, he incoherently explained himself. Of course, this incoherent speech was something that he and his gang had designed in private. Because there were frivolous ways to deal with frivolous women, they would have another incredibly sincere method to deal with women like Gloria, who was not easy t o deal with. In short, as long as it was the prey that they had targeted, they would exhaust every possible way to capture that prey.

James said with an incomparable nervous tone, "It's like this. Miss Shaw. It was presumptuous of me to have looked for you yesterday. Let me explain why I was so presumptuous. It is because my company i s a fashion design company, and the concept of our brand and also the consumers we hope to target are people between thirty-five to fifty-five years old. Why are we catering to this particular consumer group? That's because consumers under the age of thirty-five seemed like they had great purchasing power and they purchased very frequently on the surface, but we've done detailed market research, and the amount this consumer group spent was not high. That's because children nowadays only graduate from college in their twenties, and because it's getting more and more competitive in terms of one's educational background, so most of them would continue their masters postgraduate. After they get their masters, they will go for their doctorate. When they finish their doctorate, they would generally be almost thirty years old. When they just started working after graduating, they will have to face a series of important life events such as getting married and having children. Because if they were to delay any further, it would already be too late for

them. Therefore, the current situation is that people who are thirty-five years old, especially women, have no time to care about their careers as they are too busy focusing on getting their masters, doctorate, getting married, and taking care of their children at home. Without a career, where would they get money? Without money, they would not be able to afford to spend more."
