Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2031Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2031
Lucius gazed suspiciously at Joan’s words. He could not quite shake the feeling that something was
seriously wrong, but was unable to voice it out.
“But Mommy, I don’t know why but I always feel like that woman is bad news when she comes here,”
Lucius mumbled.
Of course it was bad news. Gabriella was a proud woman who wouldn’t let anybody stand in her way of
what she wanted. Looks like it’s going to be a tough one.
“All right, be good and go to sleep.” Joan caressed Lucius’s hair gently.
Very quickly, he shut his eyes as was told. Joan pulled the quilt over him and left his room.
Gabriella was still on the couch rifling through some magazines.
When did she become so thick-skinned? She’s still here!
“What are you still doing here?” Joan asked coldly.
Does this b*tch need to be chased out with a stick? Gabriella glared at her with an expression of
disdain.
“Joan, I have always been straightforward, and I would like you to do the same. Tell me when you and
Larry are getting a divorce,” Gabriella asked bitterly.
At the look of desperation on Gabriella’s voice, Joan sneered.
What’s the rush? If the child in her womb is really Larry’s, why is she constantly bugging them to get a
divorce?It looks like this situation has more to it than meets the eye.
“As I’ve told you before, in regards to the divorce, I would be more than happy to sign the papers if
Larry agrees to it. You have my word that I will leave and be out of your lives after that,” Joan said with
conviction.
Joan had pushed all the responsibility onto Larry. He was the only weak spot of Gabriella. Gabriella
had loved Larry for so many years and had given up on him. It’s a shame that Larry had never spent
any time on her. Joan felt rather fortunate with that.
“Joan, stop playing games. You must divorce Larry immediately. My stomach will be getting bigger
soon. Don’t you care about what people might say about Larry? About his infidelity?” Gabriella said
fiercely.
She made it sound as if she had always had Larry’s best interest at heart.
“I’m going to bed,” Joan said plainly. “You should go home too, it’s late already.”
I’m not in the mood to look at her or even discuss matters with her. We shall see what Larry’s
investigation yields before we take another step.
This is what love is. If the man treats his woman well, she would trust him unreservedly. Joan had felt
resentful when Larry’s trip abroad to visit her had been delayed for many days. They’ve since made up
and naturally, she would choose to be on Larry’s side, to trust him.
“Joan, don’t get too pleased with yourself. I’m telling you, this child is Larry’s. This is beyond the
shadow of a doubt. You’d better get a divorce, or else…” Gabriella glared at Joan as she left her threat
hanging ominously.
Or else what? Deal with me? Assassinate me? Scold me? Ruin my life?What wouldn’t she do? It was laughable. If I am scared of her, why would I even meet her? Joan’s eyes
flashed with disdain.
Gabriella flared up at Joan’s silence.
“Joan, I’m going to kick your ass,” Gabriella said as she approached with an ugly look of rage on her
face.
noveldramaWhat’s she doing? Is she crazy?
“Gabriella, calm yourself. You’re carrying a child,” Joan said with a frightened look toward Gabriella.
This is Ms. Young’s home. If this woman came here to cause trouble, I’m the one to blame!
“What is it? Are you scared?” Gabriella said forcefully.
Is there something wrong with her brain? She would rather risk her baby’s safety and pick a fight with
me?
“Calm down, will you? No matter what, the child is innocent. Tell you what. I’ll send you home and you
get some rest for you and the baby. As for the matter of the divorce, I will talk about it with Larry.”
