Chapter 2986
"Joan, what's on your mind?"
Gabriella asked the dazed Joan, but the latter couldn't hear her.
Out of the blue, Gabriella yelled, "Joan!"
Joan was taken aback, shuddering in shock.
"Was it necessary for you to yell?"
Jake reprimanded Gabriella.
Afraid that Jake would lose his temper, Joan interrupted him by asking, "Yes, Gabriella? You were talking to me?"
Gabriella was upset after the man raised his volume at her.
She replied with her lips pursed, "I thought you were in a bad mood because you were spacing out."
"Something crossed my mind"
Joan replied awkwardly and scratched her head.
What crossed her mind? Could it be Larry? Jake's expression darkened at that thought.
Where is he when she needs him? Isn't he supposed to look out for her? He needs to stop being so irresponsible! After a short while, Gabriella muttered, "Joan, you need to talk about it with Larry once you're back."
What should we talk about? Is she referring to the incident at the mall? How am I supposed to bring up such an embarrassing incident? Joan heaved a long sigh.
After the car was brought to a halt in front of a restaurant, they got out of the car.
Are they going to have a meal together? Of all the people she could ask to join her for a meal, why did it have to be Jake? Couldn't she ask Caspian, Nancy, or Jessica? Larry got increasingly infuriated.
"I think they're merely having a meal together.Why don't we head back for the time being? I'm sure she's going to explain everything once she's back."
