Never Late, Never Away

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.

Larry had informed the receptionist that Gabriella was persona non grata. She was now blocking Gabriella from entering the office.

“Get out of my way! Don’t you know who I am? I’m Gabriella Ward!”

Gabriella landed a hard slap on the receptionist’s cheek.

The receptionist glared at her with rage burning in her eyes.

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.
