Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2025

The man awkwardly scratched the back of his head and mumbled, “Gabriella, you were asleep? I’m sorry. Did I disturb your rest?”

Right then, Gabriella sobered up.

Wait. Why is he here? Didn’t he use to call me before he comes?

“Wait. How long have you been standing here?” Gabriella hastily surveyed her surroundings with anxious eyes.

“Quick! Come in.” She dragged him in.

Darn it. No one’s following him, right? Gabriella had found out that Caspian was following and investigating her for some time. It’ll be over for me if Caspian finds out about this man. Thus, Gabriella scurried to the balcony and looked downwards.

Good. There aren’t any cars that I don’t recognize downstairs. She heaved a sigh of relief at that revelation.

“Didn’t we agree that you won’t come over unless you call? What if something happens because you break that rule? What’s wrong with your brain?” Gabriella punched the man’s chest.

Hold on. I should be angry at him. Almost immediately, Gabriella strode toward the couch and lay down.

How shameless is he to come to me? She scoffed.

All men are playboys and dishonest people, including this one.

However, Larry was the only exception. He had loved Joan for so many years, and not once had he ever thought of giving up on her. In fact, she was the only person he would ever think of.

At that moment, Gabriella found herself feeling envious of Joan. Even though the latter had no money, talents, nor intellect, she had a man who loved and took care of her without ever thinking of giving up.

“Gabriella, I missed you,” the man whined as he wrapped his arms around her waist.
