Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1785
“It’s already so late. Why did you call?” Larry peered at her.
“Hmm? What? Have you forgotten that you’re the one who’s looking for me, Mr. Norton? I’m making time to meet up with you today…” Gabriella staggered as she approached Larry.
She made time? Larry snorted.
“You’re drunk. We will talk tomorrow.” Larry got up and wanted to leave.
“Hey, Larry Norton!” Gabriella reached out to grab his arm and stopped him.
Gabriella widened her eyes and stared right into the man’s eyes. It has to be tonight…
Gosh… He’s still so charming and handsome.
“I’m not drunk. I’m perfectly sober right now.” Gabriella swirled the glass in her hands again.
She’s perfectly sober?
Bemused, Larry did not believe a single word she said.
“Okay, let’s talk.” The man took his seat again.
At that, Gabriella’s lips curled into a triumphant smile.
“Why did you do that?” Larry decided to not beat around the bush and said.
He did not wish to squander his time with Gabriella, lest the undue delay brought him more trouble.
“Why did I do that? Larry, have you forgotten that I, Gabriella, always get what I want. And if I can’t have it, I’m going to destroy it…” the woman answered in a low voice as she sipped on her wine.
Her answer was crystal clear.
He could only choose between his company or the woman he loved. If he had chosen the company, he would have to abandon Joan. On the other hand, he would have to prepare himself for a rebuttal from his shareholders.
What a vicious woman.
Larry eyeballed the woman before him. He had never imagined that the woman was capable of such things.
