My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 365 Men Are Heartless

When James came out of the bedroom, he heard movement in the kitchen.

He turned his head and glanced at the next room, raised his feet and walked towards the kitchen.

Gloria was wearing an apron, standing in front of the kitchen table cutting fruit.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she turned her head and saw James standing at the place that was two steps away from her, smiling at her.

Gloria also smiled at him, "Morning."

"What are you doing?" James stepped closer and leaned on the edge of the kitchen table to look at the things beside him.

A hint of joy flashed across Gloria's face, "I woke up early, so I went to the kitchen. Then I found out that I can cook."

Last night, she and James went to the supermarket and bought a lot of things.

When buying ingredients, she found that the dishes that were related to the vegetable she chose would appear in her mind.

When she woke up this morning, she tried it here. Unexpectedly, she actually made it.

It was also similar to what she guessed.

She was from a very average family, and the fact that she could cook on her own suggested that she might live alone before and might be very self-reliant.

James's eyes stayed on her face for a moment, "You don't have to do this. You are still a patient now. I'll hire a cook."

"Don't bother. I know my own health condition. I feel good now." After Gloria said, she dished the cut fruits, "Well, the breakfast is ready."

Gloria put the breakfast on the table and heard James say, "I'm going to work later. I will come back and take you to lunch at noon."

Without thinking about it, Gloria shook her head and refused, "No, I can make the lunch myself." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

James didn't seem to expect that she would refuse so simply. After being stunned for a while, he shook his head and said, "My proposal is better."

Gloria said, "Don't bother. I mean it. The way you're being so careful will make me think that I didn't lose my memory, but have become a disabled person who can't take care of myself."

James smiled and didn't say anything more.

...

James went to work after breakfast. Gloria cleaned the kitchen and went downstairs to take out the garbage.

She threw the rubbish into the trash can, and turned her head. Inadvertently, she saw two people sneaking around not far away.

The figures were a man and a woman.

The woman was kitted out, while the man was dressed up in a much more normal way.

Gloria looked at them with doubt for a few seconds, hesitating to call the security guard.

At this moment, the woman ran towards her.

The woman was wearing high heels and running so fast. Gloria felt frightened as she looked at her.

The woman ran over and gave Gloria a bearhug directly, "Gloria! It's really you! I thought Carl lied to me!"

Gloria didn't know what was going on at all. She was stiff in her arms. After a long time, she asked, "Miss..."

"What miss. I'm Edith!"

Edith let go of Gloria and looked at her carefully, "How come you've lost so much weight?"

Gloria had just recovered from a serious illness, looking pale and thin.

Gloria asked tentatively, "You are... Edith?"

"Yeah, I'm Edith Hall..." Edith sobbed as she spoke.

The words that she was going to say next turned into a whimper.

Then she squatted on the ground and started crying.

She was crying so hard.

"Edith."

Carl, who had been standing at the side without making a sound, saw Edith crying, squatted down and tried to comfort her with a panicked face.

Gloria stood aside, feeling a little at a loss, "Miss Hall..."

Miss Hall seemed to know her, but she really had no impression of Miss Hall. She didn't even know what to say.

When Edith heard her call her "Miss Hall", she was even more sad, "What Miss Hall? You can't turn your back on people just because you've just recovered from a serious illness!"

Edith cried so hard that her makeup was all ruined.

Finally, Gloria had to take them both upstairs.

Edith went to the bathroom to clean herself. When she returned to the living room, she had recovered her calm.

Gloria was pouring water for them.

Edith stared at Gloria without blinking.

Before coming, Carl talked to her about Gloria's situation.

She didn't think so much at that time. She would be glad as long as Gloria was still alive.

However, when she saw that Gloria was standing in front of her alive, knowing that she had forgotten everything about the past, Edith still felt extremely bad.

When Gloria came over with the water, she saw Edith staring at her with red eyes.

Gloria handed her a glass of water and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

Edith nodded quickly and looked at her eagerly, "What about you?"

Gloria was amused by her eager look, "I'm fine too. Now I am in good health, but I..."

"I know. It doesn't matter if you don't remember the past. The days will be long and you can create more memories." Edith's tone was sincere.

Edith had accepted the fact that Gloria had lost her memory.

It was already good that she was still alive.

What Edith did made Gloria couldn't help but believe that Edith and her must have been very good friends before.

She thought Edith would tell her something about the past, but she didn't.

Edith just asked about her recent situation.

In fact, it hadn't been long since she woke up. Apart from James, she only knew Carl and Edith, and there wasn't much else to say.

Edith made her feel very warm.

They chatted casually, and it was soon noon.

Seeing that they had no intention of leaving, Gloria said , "How about staying here for lunch."

Edith responded immediately, "Great."

After she finished speaking, she scratched her head in embarrassment. She seemed to answer it too quickly...

In fact, she just kept dawdling and didn't want to leave.

She heard from Carl that the one who saved Gloria was a man who had taken care of Gloria for three years, and she wanted to see that man.

"Then I'll go get ready first." Gloria stood up as she said, walking lightly to the kitchen.

As soon as she left, Edith turned to ask Carl, "You said you went to the big boss yesterday? How did he react?"

"The same as before." Carl sighed, answering in a low spirit.

Edith couldn't help but rubbed her temples irritably, "Why did he become like this? He completely forgot about Gloria, and even has a fiancée... Men are heartless!"

Carl retorted, "Don't blame on all men. I'm not like him..."

Edith wasn't in the mood to argue with him. As if thinking of something, she looked serious suddenly, and said warningly, "Don't mention Kenny in front of Gloria. Never mention a word about him!"

At the time, Kenny didn't remember Gloria, either. If Gloria thought of Kenny, but Kenny was with other women, Gloria would be heartbroken.

Carl had a deep understanding of this.

Thinking about the fact that Kenny said before that he was going to blacklist him, he was upset, "Got it."
