Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1786
“Doctor! Doctor!” Gabriella shrieked, sending the doctor and nurses rushing into her ward.
“What’s the matter with me? Who sent me here?” Confounded, she eyeballed the medical staff fanned out before her.
“Miss, you had too much to drink yesterday night and was suffering from an alcohol overdose. A man sent you here…” A nurse explained to her.
Last night? Alcohol overdose? That’s impossible! I was drinking with Larry last night, and then… I think I drank too much… And then…. What happened?
Gabriella’s mind was blank as she sat upright on the hospital bed, trying to knock some sense back into her head exasperatedly.
She had planned to let Larry send her to a hotel, and then she would try to take some photos or videos that might make Joan jealous. Damn it! I actually blacked out from drinking too much.
Then, Gabriella got up slowly and made her way to the window.
Ding! Her phone pinged with a message. She took out her phone to check her mailbox.
It was an email from Jory containing all the photos of her being together with Larry yesterday night.
An evil glint fleeted across her eyes that moment.
“Larry, where did you go last night? Why did you need to head out so late last night?” Joan asked.
The man looked at her and decided to keep what happened last night to himself.
“I have a lot to deal with in the company. So, I will be quite busy lately,” he explained as he caressed the woman’s hair.
Was he really out to deal with the company’s matters and nothing more? Joan’s face fell, disappointed at his answer.
As an attempt to steer the topic in another direction, Larry asked, “How is Nancy doing?”
He did not wish to disclose what happened with Gabriella to her, apprehensive that Joan might overthink the trivial matter. Besides, she had nothing to worry about anyway, not especially regarding him and another woman. Larry knew he only had eyes for Joan.
