Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2044
In the end, the three of them passed out and slumped on the table.
Thud! The door to the private room was kicked open.
“Take her away!” A man pointed at Joan and commanded.
Meanwhile, Jory was busy with work.
“Mr. Synder!” Suddenly, his assistant rushed in hastily.
“What is it? Calm down and speak slowly,” came Jory’s soft reply.
He disliked others who barged into his office without even bothering to knock on the door. If this had happened in the past, he would’ve fired the person without hesitation. However, after Nancy got pregnant, he tried his best to hold back his temper lest she and her child got affected.
“Mrs. Synder went to have pizza and suddenly passed out,” replied his assistant carefully.
Hearing his words, Jory flung the file he was holding down in shock and grabbed his phone before stalking out.
“Who allowed her to have pizza? Who was she with?” he demanded.
“She was with Ms. Watts,” the assistant answered. Immediately, Jory came to a stop.
Oh, it was a gathering. But why did Nancy faint all of a sudden? He couldn’t wrap his head around it.
Soon, a black car arrived at the entrance of the pizza joint.
“Mr. Synder, I had no idea it was Mrs. Synder. She fell asleep here.” The owner of the place came to greet him warmly.
Ha! He’s trying to disassociate himself from this incident. If we find out she’s not asleep but unconscious, I shall make him pay! An icy glint flashed across Jory’s eyes.
“Nancy, wake up!” he shook her arms.
Nancy didn’t respond to his calls. To his utter fury, Caspian was slumped in a heap beside her.
He picked her up in frustration and brought her to the hospital.
“Doctor, is my wife alright?” Jory asked worriedly.
“She’s fine. I don’t understand why she took sleeping pills in the day? Did she have a hard time falling asleep at night?” The doctor stared at him curiously.
Oh, I see.
Jory whipped his phone out to call someone.
“Don’t touch any of the dishes in the room. Get someone to run a test. Also, Joan is missing. Send some men to search for her. Remember to inform Larry too.”
Nancy was still unconscious while lying in bed.
Nancy, why did you meet Caspian? Sorrow flitted across Jory’s gaze.
Ring! Ring!
“What? Joan’s missing? What about Caspian? Where is he?” Larry seemed anxious.
“Mr. Norton, your subordinate is still at the pizza joint, but your wife is missing,” replied the manager cautiously.
Thud!
Larry’s fist landed on the wall, causing the surrounding people to jump back in fear.
“Send him to the hospital,” the man ordered, his finger pointing at Caspian.
Clearly, it was Gabriella who had planned something this despicable. He couldn’t think of someone else who had a grudge against Joan.
Is she that impatient to get rid of Joan? His gaze flashed menacingly.
“Gabriella, where did you hide Joan?” Larry tamped down his irritation and demanded.
Ha! Finally, he’s here to get her. Gabriella flashed a cunning smile and schooled her expression carefully.
“Lars, what are you talking about? I didn’t meet Joan. The three days aren’t up yet. There’s no way I’d harm her,” she replied in a low voice.
Actually, her men had been watching Delilah’s house just in case. Those who knew Larry well would know he was a meticulous person. After what had happened, he refused to let Joan step out of their home, but still, the b*tch didn’t listen to him and caused trouble. Hence, no one could be blamed for what happened.
