Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1987
“No problem. I will try my best to help.” The doctor smiled cordially.
After all, there was nothing to fear in helping the police.
After chatting a while longer, Joan left the security control room.
“Well, well, isn’t it Joan?” Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out from behind her.
There was only one person she knew that spoke with such a domineering tone. Joan turned around and squinted her eyes at the woman approaching her.
She didn’t believe that it was a coincidence for Gabriella to be there right after the man who came to see Freya had just left.
“What are you doing here?” Joan glared at her suspiciously.
Gabriella pretended to rub her stomach while her eyes were filled with contempt.
“Why can’t I be in a hospital? I’m here for a checkup.”
Joan glanced at the doctor beside her, signaling him to leave. The man quickly understood and returned to his office.
Joan couldn’t allow Gabriella to harm anyone else.
“In that case, I’ll be taking my leave.” With that, Joan turned and left.
“Hey, Joan, when are you going to divorce Larry?” Gabriella’s icy tone caught everyone’s attention.
What a joke. Larry is the one who is unwilling to go through the divorce. Instead of looking for him, she…
“Gabriella, let me tell you. Whenever Larry is free, we can file for divorce anytime. I’m not the one holding it up.” Not wanting to hear her voice further, Joan left right away.
Gabriella slammed the medication in her hands onto the floor.
“Hey Baby, who has gotten on your nerves? Why are you angry?” the man quickly approached and asked softly.
Damn you, Joan. How dare you treat me that way!
Gabriella clenched her fists tightly as flames burned in her eyes. When the man saw her expression, he instinctively retreated a few steps.
What happened? Who infuriated her? He looked at her quizzically.
“Alright, Gabriella. Don’t be angry. It’s bad for the baby. Let me send you home.” The man held her hand and walked out of the hospital together.
As it was easy for a pregnant woman to feel insecure, Gabriella called for the baby’s real father to accompany her when she didn’t receive any assurances from Larry.
“Next time, just get me to take care of whatever you need. After all, it’s getting increasingly difficult for you to move around,” the man suggested with concern.
Suddenly, Gabriella leaned her head on his shoulder while her eyes were filled with sadness. At that moment, he was suddenly stunned. But, he quickly regained his composure.
In truth, all Gabriella wanted was a husband that loved her, an adorable child, a day job, and a loving family to return to. However, the husband had to be Larry.
In contrast to her feelings for Larry, the resentment she felt against Joan for stealing Larry away from her was even stronger, to the extent it was now about revenge. No matter what, she just had to steal Larry back from Joan.
“I’m so tired,” Gabriella murmured.
That was the first time the man heard Gabriella sound disheartened. At that moment, he was filled with sympathy for her.
She was just an ordinary woman, who also needed love and protection from a man.
“Gabriella, do you want a complete family?” the man lifted her chin and asked seriously.
How can I not? Who doesn’t want to have a happy family?
“What are you trying to say?” Gabriella asked softly.
“What I mean is that if you’re willing, we can…”
“I’m tired. I just feel like sleeping for a while,” she interrupted him.
Naturally, she wasn’t willing.
The man didn’t understand why she was being so stubborn. Larry doesn’t love her and yet, she desperately tries to cling onto him, to the extent of fabricating such a lie.
In life, there are many sorts of people. There are some who would choose to let go for the sake of love, while others that go astray in their pursuit of it. As time passed, the love they have would lose its purity. Gabriella is the best example of this.
