Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2008

The assistant who had been standing aside quickly placed the documents back on the table, a cautious expression on his face. Larry glanced disdainfully at the woman before him and continued to work.

While she had but a handful of interactions with Gabriella, she could tell that Gabriella was an incredibly difficult person. She could also tell that Larry despised her very existence.

“Nonsense! That’s a load of crap! Lars wouldn’t stop me from entering his office. I’m going to be his wife, and I’m pregnant with his child!” Gabriella shouted.
