Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1913

Chapter 1913 Something Is Off

“Hello, Caspian? Go inspect Gabriella’s recent actions,” Larry instructed in a furious tone.

Looking at the man in front of her, Joan found a sense of peace. With Larry around, she didn’t need to worry too much. She knew he would take care of her.

Thump!

Gabriella tossed the box forcefully to the ground.

“What a bunch of imbeciles! All you found is a pen? Do any of you have a usable brain?” the woman spat out as she glared at the few men in front of her.

The bunch of men turned to each other as they didn’t quite understand the situation.

“Ms. Ward, you were the one who asked us to search for the gift and bring it to you. Now that we’ve handed it over to you, you’re tossing it to the ground. Why is that?” Hubert asked softly.

Gabriella shook her head, and suddenly, an overwhelming aura emanated from her.

Damn! What a bunch of scumbags!

“Will you get someone a regular pen as a gift?” Gabriella glared at them.

In a jiffy, Hubert ran up to the woman’s side after he figured out what she was suggesting.

“Ms. Ward, rest assured. I’ll certainly not disappoint you!” With that, he gestured his men to leave together.

“Mr. Newman, what does that mean?” one of his men asked.

Thump!

Hubert landed his fist forcibly against the wall, and soon, blood trickled down his fingers. Seeing as such, his men quickly backed away and waited for his instructions with their heads lowered.

Nonchalantly, Hubert barked, “Capture that woman!”

Upon hearing his order, his group of men left to carry it out.

“Joan, those men you’ve lied to won’t let you off the hook easily. Why don’t you stay by my side from now on?” Larry patted her shoulder softly.

The woman wavered for a brief second. Indeed, they won’t let me go easily. Nevertheless, if I insist that it was in fact a pen that Freya gave me, I don’t think anything will go wrong…

“It’s okay, don’t worry. Besides, the gift Freya gave me is indeed a pen. It simply came with a recorder.” Joan smiled and passed Larry the recorder.
