Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2008
The assistant who had been standing aside quickly ced the documents back on the table, a cautious
expression on his face. Larry nced disdainfully at the woman before him and continued to work.
“Lars!” a woman outside the office screamed hysterically.
Larry had informed the receptionist that Gabrie was persona non grata. She was now blocking
Gabrie from entering the office.
“Get out of my way! Don’t you know who I am? I’m Gabrie Ward!”
Gabriended a hard p on the receptionist’s cheek.
The receptionist red at her with rage burning in her eyes.
“Ms. Ward, Mr. Norton gave specific orders that you were not to enter his office. I didn’t tell you this so
you could leave with your dignity intact, but you’ve left me with no choice. You should leave,” the
receptionist stated coldly.
While she had but a handful of interactions with Gabrie, she could tell that Gabrie 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!” Gabrie shouted.
All eyes turned to her at that moment.
“Is she crazy? Mr. Norton’s been married for ages.”
“Yea, how could she im to be his fiancée? She’s delusional!”
“She’s definitely trying to sink her ws into Mr. Norton.”
A few women began gossiping about themotion.
“I’m telling the truth! You’d do well to respect me, or I’ll screw all of you once I’m married to Larry!”
Gabrie pointed menacingly at the gossips.
“That’s creepy as hell. Let’s go!”
“If she really bes Mrs. Norton, I’m going to quit!”
The gossipsmented snidely.
Gabrie had always been a temperamental woman. Her emotions had be even more unstable
since her pregnancy. She lost her temper easily and frequently.
Sometimes, Larry wondered if she might be mentally ill.
“I’m really Larry’s fiancée. The baby in my belly is-”

“Shut up!” A frosty bark reached Gabrie’s ears.
“Lars, you’re finally here! Thisdy wouldn’t let me in to see you.” Gabrie rushed towards Larry and
clung to his elbow.
“Gabrie, what are you doing? I told them myself not to let you in. Do you have a problem with that?”
Larry red at her., clenching his fists in annoyance.
Stupid man, why would he stop me from seeing him? Gabrie tried to rein in her emotions before she
exined herself.
“Lars, I just wanted to see you. Are you still sick, or are you all better already?” She made a move to
touch his forehead.
Larry ducked to avoid her hand.
“Why are you here to see me?” he asked indifferently.
What other reason could she have other than totch on to me and torment me?
“We need to pick out a name for our baby.” Gabrie rubbed her stomach slyly.
What a joke! Larry felt this patience running thin. When is she going to stop her delusional act? That
kid’s not even mine!
“I’m busy. You can pick a name yourself,” he replied coldly and turned to leave.
“But Lars, it’s always better if both parentse up with the name together.” Gabrie pouted coyly.
“Then I advise you to find the baby’s real father!” He shrugged off her hand.
Gabrie froze in shock.
Does he know? A chilling gaze appeared in her eyes.
I’ve kept it under wraps for so long. How could he find out? She clenched her fists while her eyes
burned with rage.
