Chapter 3102 Gabriella And Jake
“What’re you guys planning?” Jake rubbed his nose, looking apologetic.
“What has anything got to do with you?” Nancy shouted rudely.
Suddenly, the office went deathly quiet.
Larry got up slowly and faced the group with a smile.
“That’s enough, stop picking on him. Jake, you’re here for Gabriella, aren’t you?” Larry asked inquisitively.
Jake scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
The group understood at once. Jake is into Gabriella! That’s great! Joan is finally free from her troubles!
Abelyn eyed the scene excitedly, looking very pleased.
Actually, Jake wasn’t a bad person. He was merely impetuous; he had acted rashly in the past.
“So, you like Gabriella! Larry, when you propose to Joan, Jake can confess to Gabriella too at the same time,” Nancy suggested all of a sudden.
At that, the entire group began chattering merrily. What an excellent idea to celebrate two relationships.
They discussed a little longer before departing.
Soon, the weekend rolled around while Joan and Gabriella were kept busy in the eatery. It seemed like they had no idea what was in store for them.
“Hurry up, Gabriella! The customers are getting impatient.”
“I know, I know! Stop rushing me. I’m swamped!” The eatery was suddenly crowded, causing Gabriella to feel overwhelmed.
“We’re here to help!”
“That’s right. I knew that you two are busy here.”
Nancy, Jessica, and Abelyn had turned up to lend them a helping hand.
The sight of all of them invoked Joan and Gabriella’s curiosity for the girls’ motive. Could they want to discuss something?
Soon, the men entered as well.
With the arrival of extra hands, the entire eatery operated smoothly.
Two hours later, the customers began to depart. Once the last satisfied customer left, Gabriella and Joan slumped onto the couch in the corner, looking exhausted.
“Hey, we’re thinking of going to the beach. Are you coming?” Nancy gave Joan a light shove on the arm.
What nonsense is she suggesting? We’re exhausted from work!
“I want to take a nap,” Joan whined. At her answer, everyone looked at Larry, at a loss of what to do.
“You know what, I could nap at the beach too!” Joan yelled suddenly.
“What? Joan, are you crazy? Why would you want to sleep at the beach? I’m dead tired, and I’m not going anywhere! You can go if you want to!” Gabriella snapped.
“What are you guys doing? I’m not going…”
Because the woman could finish her sentence, however, she was carried off to the car.
“Joan, I love you! Marry me!”
The moment she arrived at the beach, Joan saw a spot set up not far away. Adorable balloons were floating, and the area was lit by enticing candles. An intoxicating scent of roses filled the air, and multicolored lights illuminated the scene in all its splendor.
All of those combined with the presence of the man she loved.
Joan was touched. Why did they not inform me about this? She wiped the tears that were forming in her eyes and ran into Larry’s arms.
“Will you marry me?” Larry asked as he knelt on one knee and presented her with an engagement ring.
“Yes!” Joan was touched by his gesture.
This time, no one was there to raise objections. Everybody present wished them well.
“I’m so jealous!” Gabriella squealed. She clasped her hands together and gazed longingly at the newly engaged couple with bright eyes. It would be nice if someone would propose to me like this! Gabriella fluttered her eyelids at admiration at the couple.
“Gabriella! I like you!” Suddenly, a familiar male voice came from behind her.
