Are You Ready Yet?
Gloria smiled and shook her head, “No, I‘m not afraid.”
In fact, Ted can also choose not to let Angela show up at the meeting. If he did so, Gloria would
succeed more easily since no one was ready to help Angela in the confrontation.
But this would not be a complete victory and it would also make people gossip about how she
brought no honor to her unfair victory.
On the contrary, if Ted let the two of them confront each other directly, it would be another matter.
Winning would be convincing.
“Well, I trust you, young girl. Since you‘ve come here, we can talk more. Are you two tired? Why don‘t
you stay here tonight? You can take a rest here.”
Nydia laughed, “Thank you, Uncle. But it‘s still quite early. If you‘re not tired, Uncle, we‘ll talk for more.”
Ted nodded. He really didn‘t want to let the two of them leave because he still had a lot of things to ask.
Seeing that Gloria did not object, he looked at Gloria and said softly, “So, Gloria, what do you think of
the development of the company now?”
Gloria was a little surprised, “Mr. Maguire?”
“You can tell me. I just want to hear your personal opinion.”
Personal.
The word “personal” rang loudly in Ted‘s mouth.
Ted had been an elite in the trade, and he was also very keen on discovering talents. Moreover, he
could see through whether Gloria was talking about her own views or not at once.
He still wanted to test if Gloria had the capability.
Gloria paused and finally said, “In fact, when my father was managing the company, there had been
problems. But my uncle‘s taking over the company had only made the problems worse.”
Ted was shocked. He said, “Go ahead.”
It seemed her words suddenly dawned on him, sparkling up the passion and disappointment from the
bottom of his at that moment.
The passion was directed at the development of the company while his disappointment was with the
current decadence of the company, which he felt hopeless turning the tide.
Gloria sighed and told him everything she found and saw.
Every time she made a point, Ted couldn‘t help nodding in agreement.
Nydia had become totally amazed.
She couldn‘t understand what these two people were talking about, but she could feel that it was too
obscure and difficult for herself to understand.
It was already late at night until they finished talking.
Ted knew that it was too late and immediately apologized to the two of them, “Sorry, girls, I was so
excited to talk that I forgot the time. I didn‘t expect it is so late now. Why don‘t you sleep here tonight?”
Nydia laughed, “No, thank you, Uncle. We will go home. Maybe we can talk another day.”
Knowing that Gloria might not be accustomed to staying here, Ted didn‘t force her to stay. He nodded
and said, “I‘ll have someone send you back.”
“Don‘t bother, Uncle…”
“It‘s too late. It‘s not safe to let you two girls go home alone.”
Ted quickly took out his mobile phone, dialed a number and asked an assistant to come. Then he
looked at Gloria and said, “I believe you can build the White family a new future, Gloria. I‘m waiting to
see it.”
In his words, Gloria could sense his excitement.
Gloria seemed to be looking forward to that day as well. She nodded, “Mr. Maguire, I will work hard to
do it. Now with your support, I am more confident and motivated.”
“It‘s not just my support. There were many people who supported your father in those days. I‘ll contact
them and see you in private.”
Gloria nodded gratefully, “Thank you, Mr. Maguire.”
“You‘re welcome.”
They chatted for some more while and they left.
Nydia lived in Gloria‘s home. Looking at Gloria, Nydia couldn‘t help but say, “Honey, are you ready
yet?”
