Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1969

Ugh! I must be the world’s unluckiest person to encounter this psycho b***h today.

“Absolutely not. You can’t leave!” Gabriella shrilled.

I haven’t even settled the score yet, and she wants to get away clean? Over my dead body.

“Miss, have you no shame? A pregnant lady like yourself shouldn’t behave this way. Otherwise, you’ll bring humiliation upon your poor husband. Or… do you not have a husband at all?” the colleague deliberately taunted.

Anger broiled in Gabriella, whose palm landed on the woman’s cheek in a slap.

How dare she slap me!

“I got this,” Joan interjected. She threw herself between them to prevent a vicious catfight from happening.

“Gabriella, whatever problems we have should be settled between us two. Don’t drag my colleagues into this. And you should watch your temper. Else, it might affect the child in your belly.” Joan stood before her colleagues, defending them.

The women knew Joan had her reasons for that, so they withdrew from the conversation altogether.

Gabriella looked down at her bulging tummy, then back up at Joan. A viscously satisfied smile curved on her lips.

So you want to play it that way, huh? Okay then, I’ll indulge in your little game.

“Argh!” Gabriella suddenly screamed in agony.

She clutched onto her tummy as she collapsed down to the floor.

At this, Joan stood dumbstruck.

“What’s your damage? How could fake being in pain?” The colleagues stepped forward with outraged expressions.

“Joan, why are you still being so merciful towards her? She’s clearly taking it too far!” they yelled in frustration.

“Ouch, my tummy hurts! Someone please help me! She’s trying to kill me!” Gabriella clung tightly onto Joan’s leg and yelled.

In mere seconds, a crowd gathered around them.

“Help me… this woman is trying to make me miscarry because she’s jealous that I’m pregnant. And she keeps clinging onto my husband…” Gabriella skillfully broke out in tears.

“That’s awful! How could she attack a pregnant woman?”

“Mistresses nowadays are getting far more brazen.”
