Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1964
“Hold on a second!” Gabriella shouted.
Such an impatient woman. Why couldn’t she wait for me to get to the point?
“Don’t you want to listen till the end? Are you sure you won’t regret this?” Gabriella provoked sarcasm while stirring her cup of coffee.
“Then please get to the point. I know better than anyone how he feels for me!” Joan had lost her cool.
Gabriella did not hold back her temper either as she threw her spoon harshly on the table.
“Since you are so impatient, I will get straight to the point. Please divorce Larry, as I am pregnant with his child. I know he hasn’t told you about us and I understand that it is hard for him to explain to you. But sooner or later, we all have to face this reality,” Gabriella spoke ruthlessly.
At that instant, Joan felt as if she had lost everything and hit rock bottom.
Is she kidding me?
Joan stared at Gabriella in bewilderment and kept shaking her head.
How could Larry possibly touch her!
“Why? Do you not believe me? Alright. Take a look at this.”
The next second, Gabriella placed in front of Joan a document from the hospital.
She is indeed pregnant!
“That’s right, and the baby is Larry’s. You can go home and ask him directly,” Gabriella added.
Joan was devastated by Gabriella’s confidence and pride.
No wonder the last time Gabriella came to Ms. Young’s house, Larry acted so strangely. And no wonder he is always in a bad mood recently.
“When was this?” Joan tried hard to hold herself together as she needed to know all the truth.
“When you were overseas, Larry went to the bar almost every day, and I accompanied him… “
Joan was still struggling to clear her thoughts.
