Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1488
“Joan, do you still remember what we said the last time we met? That we agreed to meet up another time?” Gabriella suggested with a smile.
She continued, “Don’t tell me you already forget?”
Of course Joan didn’t.
“But, Gabriella, I’m at work now. Why don’t you decide on a venue and I will see you there after work?”
“Fine with me. Meet me at Rainbow Café when you get off work then. I’ll send you the address in a while.”
Gabriella pretended to be friendly.
“Alright Gabriella, I’ll head over there once I’m done with work,” Joan replied.
“I’ll be waiting for you. Anyway, sorry for bothering you at work. See you later, Joan.”
Gabriella ended the call smiling. However, in the very next moment, her expression changed drastically.
As for Joan, even though she was quite surprised at receiving Gabriella’s call, she didn’t find it suspicious at all.
Thinking back to the time when she just entered university, everything was unfamiliar yet exciting. Gabriella was the first friend she got to know.
“Hi, I’m Gabriella, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
“Hi, I’m Joan.”
Both of them quickly became good friends. They went to class together, ate together, shopped together, and even had sleepovers.
In Joan’s eyes, although Gabriella was gorgeous and came from a rich family, she didn’t look down on anyone and treated everyone with respect. Hence, Joan considered Gabriella to be her best friend.
Despite how sincere Joan was in their friendship, Gabriella didn’t share her sentiments at all.
When she first got to know Joan, Gabriella assumed she was from a rich family given how pretty she was. That was the only reason she made friends with her in the first place.
Once she found out about Joan’s ordinary background, she no longer concerned herself with her.
