Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1948
He didn’t believe for even a second that Larry would ever cheat on Joan. He left the security control room and went upstairs.
Knock knock!
“Lars?” Gabriella started shaking Larry.
However, he was already fast asleep.
Whoever was outside the door continued to knock relentlessly, and Gabriella started to smirk devilishly.
Oh, Larry. Since you’re dead asleep, I guess I’ll have to take matters into my own hands.
She picked up a towel and wrapped it around herself, making sure to reveal her alluring décolletage and smooth legs before going to open the door.
The moment the door opened, Caspian almost couldn’t believe his eyes.
“What’s up? Are you looking for your brother in arms?” Gabriella asked seductively.
Caspian’s gaze sharpened at the sight of the shameless woman in front of him.
“Screw off!” he barged his way into the room and slammed the door shut, shoving Gabriella aside.
“Larry!” Caspian called anxiously as he shook Larry back and forth.
Perhaps due to Caspian’s intense shaking, Larry finally started to come to.
“What are you doing here so early, Caspian?” Larry yawned.
“Early? Why don’t you take a look at what you’ve done?” Caspian’s tone was laced with both helplessness and frustration.
Larry looked around him and sat up in a flash.
His clothes were strewn all over the floor and were tangled up with some woman’s clothes too. He hurriedly threw the comforter away only to realize that he was naked.
With a glance at Gabriella, who was still clad in just a towel, Larry started to feel like something was wrong.
“What are you doing here?” he asked fiercely as he jabbed a finger in Gabriella’s direction.
“Did you forget, Lars? You brought me here last night,” Gabriella said in a deliberately bashful tone.
Larry felt like he had been struck by lightning.
He had simply been drinking his stress away at the bar when some woman had approached him. He remembered shoving that woman away, but when did Gabriella come into the picture?
