A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2013

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2013

“I’ll come back in a few days.” Then, the man pried her off.

Damn you, Larry. How can you be so concerned for that witch? You don’t even care about me!

“Ah!”

All of a sudden, Gabriella fell off the bed.

Everyone in the room froze.

Then, the woman moaned in agony as she held her stomach.

“What’s wrong with you? Your wife is already in pain. Where are you trying to go?”

“She’s right. That baby in her is yours. How can you abandon her so ruthlessly?”

“Is that man having an affair?”

That question causes an uproar in the room, and everyone started whispering to each other about the possibility of his affair.

Ignoring then, Larry hurriedly walked over to carry Gabriella back up on the bed before tucking her in.

“What are you trying to do?” He glared at her.

It had been a long while, and he finally knew what kind of woman she was. Everything was just part of her act.

Damn it. I never thought you’d be as vicious as this, Gabriella. I can’t believe you’d risk the life of that baby in you. Larry’s scowl deepened.

“What are you talking about, Lars? I only want you to accompany me for a little longer. I was trying to send you off earlier, but I didn’t think that… Ugh.” Gabriella suddenly grabbed her stomach and scrunched up her face.

Once again, the nurse walked over and commented, “You’re her husband; you shouldn’t do this. This is a crucial time of her pregnancy, so you should just heed her words.”

Who’s her husband? Larry shot a glare at the nurse.

“I’m not her husband,” he gritted out.

However, the surrounding people were not surprised at his reply.

“Grandma, can you please find out what happened to Dad? Mom even calls for him in her sleep,” Lucius muttered, feeling distressed.

A few minutes of chatting later, Delilah ended the call and left the garden.

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Young. Mr. Norton is currently not in his office,” the receptionist politely answered.

Where would he be? She frowned. Why is Larry dilly-dallying all of sudden? He used to prioritize Joan’s matters in the past. Why is he…

“When will he be back, then?” Delilah asked.

“Mrs. Young, is there something urgent? Is that why you’re looking for Mr. Norton? If my guess isn’t wrong, he should still be in the hospital,” the receptionist offered with a small smile.

Delilah was not a stranger, and that was why the receptionist was willing to tell her about Larry’s whereabouts.

Hearing the reply, the older woman instantly hailed a cab to head to the hospital.

Why is he in the hospital? Is he sick?

In the meantime, Larry was standing by the windowsill, staring out of the window with dull eyes. Behind him, Gabriella seemed carefree. That’s right. I’m stopping you from going overseas. I’m going to keep you here! The grin on her face grew wider.
