A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1826

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1826

The woman turned around and dragged her feet to the door. Just when she was about to open the door and leave, a voice suddenly rang out.

“Wait!” Larry shouted.

All at once, Gabriella’s face lit up in delight.

Has he finally relented and is willing to allow me to stay?

Nervously rubbing both her hands, she slowly pivoted and stared at the man a near distance away as she anticipated his next remark.

“Take your gift with you!” Larry threw the gift box right at her.

At that, Gabriella’s face instantly flushed bright red.

It was the first time someone had ever refused a gift from her, and it was the man whom she loved to boot.

“You’re going too far, Larry! I’m just here to celebrate your birthday!” Finally, the reins on her emotions snapped.

Well, well… What a stupid woman! Doesn’t she know what she has done? Yet, she has the temerity to come and claim that she’s here to celebrate my birthday, huh?

“As I said, I don’t need that!” Larry retorted coldly.

As Joan gazed at his wintry expression, she felt that he had gone a bit overboard. Just when she was about to intervene, Dustin interrupted her.

“Gabriella Ward, you should just leave if there’s nothing else,” he suggested softly.

He was merely reminding her that Larry loved Joan wholeheartedly, so she didn’t stand the slightest chance.

However, Gabriella would never give up so easily.

Damn you, Dustin Silverman! How dare you side with him? Her gaze turned a tad vicious, and the atmosphere became so tense that one could cut it with a knife.

Gabriella’s presence here was abhorred by all, including Nancy.

While she hadn’t had much interaction with her, she knew about how she had once set Caspian up back then.

She’s definitely a cunning woman, Nancy reckoned as she stared at Gabriella some distance away.

“Larry, I’ll just leave if you don’t want me to attend your birthday party. There’s no need for your friends to insult me here, no?” Gabriella declared resentfully.

Upon hearing that, Dustin sneered.
