"He even bought all sorts of makeup products for me. He would even wash my feet for me before bed at night, not to mention all the sweet talks he had told me every day. Even a few baskets would not be able to fit all of them. How sweet of a man h e was, but what happened in the end? Ten years! He showed his true colors in just ten years. I saw with my own eyes today how h e treated the other woman today. He was almost just as attentive to her as he was to me back then! When I heard those sweet talks with my own ears, I got so angry that I threw up on the spot. Do you know that, Gloria? I was so angry that I went up to grab that woman's hair and I wanted to beat her to death! However, my man actually protected her and beat me up! My man actually beat me up, Gloria! Tell me,
are there good men in this world?"
Gloria looked at James awkwardly and then she put on a forced smile. "Haha. Well
Without waiting for Gloria to answer, Angie said it herself, "No! Not a single one! We were so madly in love back then, yet he was able to beat me up just like that. Are there still any good men? All men are the same! When they haven't gotten you, they would treat you very attentively with all the ways he got. Once he is together with you, he will immediately treat you like a piece of rag! Gloria, I am so heartbroken. I don't have a place to return to anymore tonight. Gloria, could you let me stay over for a night? I will look for a house tomorrow ..." Angie sobbed.
Gloria glanced at James slightly awkwardly. James shrugged his shoulders.
Just when Gloria was about to say something, Angie raised her hand and pointed at James. "Fuck off! Get the fuck away! I am here to protect Gloria, so don’t you think about getting near her! That's because we don't believe in any kinds of sweet talks anymore! Any men who sweet talk are trash! You're a piece of trash as well! Tell me the truth today, are you here t o cheat Gloria out of her money! You knew that Gloria's father and her daughter are very rich, and you also knew both of them are not by her side, so you feel it’s easy to cheat Gloria out of her money, isn't it?"
At that moment, James was completely stunned. No! He was shocked! He was so shocked that his legs turned into jelly. Has he given himself away? He could not have done so! He had always been polite and he never even crossed the boundary at all, so how could he have given himself away?
At that moment, Gloria let James have an out by saying, "Angie, I'm seriously telling you that James is not the kind of man that you're thinking of. He also rarely sweet-talked me. I, on the other hand, talked to him more. Angie, you can stay here for the night, but you can't be mean to my friend just because you have argued with your husband, alright?"
Angie immediately said apologetically, " Gloria, I'm sorry. I acted too rashly." After that, she looked at James, "Mister Dunn, I'm sorry...”
"It's fine. It's nothing." James immediately smiled. "Both of you may go on and have a chat. You can just spend the night here without any worries. I'll take my leave now.
I will bring breakfast over for both of you tomorrow morning. Don't worry. I won't be sweet-talking. I'll leave after I send the breakfast over. I'll leave immediately.
Goodbye."
Upon saying those words, James immediately walked out and he even locked up the gate at the courtyard after he walked out.
"Haha!"
"Haha... We've finally made the man leave with our tricks." Both the ladies in the house burst out laughing.
