Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2033

“Joan!” Larry burst in.

"What is it?” he looked intently at Joan as he awaited an explanation.

“Gabriella had lost her child. She went to Ms. Young's house, and...” Joan stammered.

She was too emotional and did not know how to explain this to Larry.

“Joan, take a deep breath. Don't panic, and tell me from the start.” Larry caressed Joan's hair gently

to calm her down

“Gabriella!” A man barged in with fear in his eyes.

“Gabriella, what happened to you? Wake up? The baby, where's the baby?" the man bellowed to a

nurse passing by as he blocked her path.

"What are you talking about? I don’t know...” The nurse was frightened by his mad appearance.

"What do you mean you don't know? Gabriella is here in your hospital! It's your job to know! She

was fine this morning and now she’s lying comatose! What kind of doctors and nurses are you? I'm

going to sue you! Hurry up and make her wake up. That woman who's lying there in that ward.

Hurry!” the man shouted, slightly demented.

"Sir, please calm down. We know that we are worried for Ms. Ward, but she had just came out of

surgery and needs rest, so if you could please lower down your voice,” the nurse replied awkwardly.

Surgery? She went for surgery? The man's eyes lit up.

"What did you say? Gabriella went for surgery? What for? When was she operated on?” the man

gripped the nurse's elbow tightly with no intention of letting go.

The commotion drew a crowd of spectators.

“Is this guy crazy or what?”

"How rude of him to be making such a racket in a hospital...”

“I heard it was because of a woman...”

Slanderous gossip came from all sides. The man wasn't affected, however. He did not even seem to

notice that he was surrounded.

“I don't care, she must be awake by today!” The man pulled on the nurse's arm to leave.

"Sir, please mind yourself. I have to fetch some medication for a patient...” The nurse struggled.

The supervisor promptly arrived and took the troublemaker into his office.

Joan witnessed the entire spectacle with shock. She knew who that man was though this was the

first time she laid eyes on him. She had not even heard Gabriella mentioning him

"Who was he?" Joan asked Larry in a low voice.

“He is the father of the child in Gabriella’s womb,” Larry replied simply.

Joan was shocked.

Is the child within her not Larry's? Why didn't he say so? I've misunderstood him for so long.

But... Joan stared at the woman on the bed and felt defeated.

Sometimes, women who were pure of heart wouldn't think the worst of a situation, like how Joan

was at that moment.

“Joan, you should leave the country for a while,” Larry said suddenly. He had intended to take care

of everything.

What is the meaning of this? Why do I have to flee the country all of a sudden? Joan gazed

curiously at the man before her.

“Can't you see why? Gabriella was gravely injured in Ms. Young's house, and you were the only

witness. Of course she would push the blame onto you. Do you think she would confess to stabbing

herself?” Larry said coldly.

Joan recalled Gabriella's words in the house.

Larry was right; Gabriella intended to frame me! Her plan was to create a scene with her unborn

baby and force me and Larry to get a divorce!

Joan was so busy being worried for Gabriella that it just occurred to Joan that maybe she ought to

be worried for herself for a change. What would she do? Blackmail her with the threat of death?

Larry would of course believe Joan. She would never do something like this. But Gabriella had

extraordinary deviousness. She would have thought this through thoroughly to execute something

as drastic as this.
