Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1558
p! Gabrie gave the man a hard p.
“Have you no shame?”
Furious from Gabrie’s p, the man raised his hand to return the p. The force of it sent her falling
toward the ground.
“Since you won’t appreciate my kindness, I’ll do it myself. It’s the same at the end of the day, anyway.”

The man then lifted Gabrie to ce her on the office desk, about to tear her clothes away.
“No! Don’t! Let go of me! Help!”
Gabrie flew into a panic. When she looked at the disgusting man who nauseated her, she felt as if
she had been plunged straight into hell.
Gabrie flung her hands around in desperation, but she could fight against the man’s strength. Right
as destion was about to overtake her heart, she abruptly touched something solid. It was an ashtray.
Suddenly finding strength in her arms, Gabrie then smashed the ashtray onto the man’s head.
“Ah!”
With a shriek, the man copsed onto the ground with his hands holding onto his head.
Gabrie stared at the man in agony for a few moments. Blood was gushing past his fingers and down
his face. She was terrified. It took her a few moments before she recollected herself enough to think
about escaping. The moment she did, she stumbled her way out of the office.
The entire way back to her rented vi, Gabrie could hear her rapid heartbeats in her ear. Only when
she stepped into the safety of her house, then could she finally calm down. Recalling what had just
happened, she thought, That man should be fine. He’s only bleeding badly because it’s a head wound.
His life won’t be in any danger. With those thoughts, Gabrie’s heart returned to her chest from her
throat.
However, she still had not found a job yet. She was a talentless person in thisplicated and tough
society; she was worse than an ordinary person. It seemed like selling her looks was the only way for
her to make a living.
However, Gabrie’s ego refused to let her do that. No matter what happened, she was once the
daughter of the Wards; she would not let herself be the ything of others.
As she grabbed her head in frustration, Gabrie realized she could not do anything. She was trapped
between choosing between life and dignity.
Just as she was stuck in a dilemma, Carl called.
When she saw the familiar number, Gabrie epted the call, wanting to find out what else he had to
say to her.
“Gabrie, I’m Carl. How are you?” came Carl’s concerned voice.
Somehow, his words made Gabrie tear up.
She could not believe that Carl would be the one who would voice words of concern to her at her most
upsetting moment.
“I’m fine, Carl. What’s the matter?” Gabrie inquired with faked tranquility.
Despite her calm tone, thousands of thoughts were shing past her mind.
“Gabrie, stop lying. I know life is horrible for you now. I’m really upset that this has happened to you. I
love you so much to the point my heart breaks when I see you sad. I wanted to court you when you
were still the esteemed daughter of the Wards, but I didn’t have the courage to. You were like the sun,
and a peasant like me could never be a match for you. But, Gabrie, you didn’t understand what my
feelings for you were back then. You didn’t know whether or not my feelings for you were sincere. I’m
sure you know now, don’t you? I love you. Please ept me!”
Carl’s voice was so earnest, and it was as if he was going to show her his heart just to convince her.
“What do you mean?”
Carl’s words moved Gabrie. She was in the darkest moment of her life, and his words were like
glowing fireflies, lighting up her heart.
“What I mean is, Gabrie, marry me. I can understand why you won’t ept me when you were in
your prime moments. After all, you were brilliant back then. However, in times like these, I hope you
can ept me so that I can take care of you. I don’t want to see you suffer anymore.”
When he heard Gabrie wavering, he decided to win her heart over once and for all.
