Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2054
“Get someone to enter the fashion boutique and pretend to be a customer. Calm down. We can’t act recklessly,” reminded Larry.
There was no way Jory could calm down for his wife was in danger. He immediately glared at Larry, clearly irritated.
After all, Nancy wouldn’t have gone to the fashion boutique to fish for information if Joan hadn’t gone missing. Now that Gabriella was there, she wouldn’t let Nancy leave easily.
“Larry, that’s my wife!” Jory grabbed his phone and strode out.
In the fashion boutique, Nancy’s phone kept ringing in her bag. Yet, she dared not answer it.
“Ms. Barrymore, your phone has been ringing incessantly. Didn’t you hear it?” Gabriella pointed it out on purpose.
She wanted to see how Nancy would react under the circumstances.
“Hello, Jory.”
“Stay right there. I’ll be there soon. Don’t be afraid and stall for time. I’m on my way,” uttered Jory.
Clearly, it was Jory who had called her.
“Alright, got it. But they only sell women’s clothes here. I’ll head to the mall to get your clothes later,” replied Nancy deliberately.
“Nancy, what are you talking about? I’m serious. Stop talking nonsense. I’m worried about you!” exclaimed Jory.
“Hey, stop it. Can you be more serious? I’ll buy your clothes later,” Nancy continued.
It finally dawned on Jory that she was doing it on purpose. Someone’s watching her!
They chatted briefly before cutting the line.
It seemed like a simple phone conversation, but Gabriella knew something was up. Nancy didn’t just talk to someone on the phone. Hmm, I should get prepared.
