Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2042
The pizza joint was packed with customers at night. The two women stood at the entrance, feeling envious.
“Nancy, why don’t we eat something lighter? You’re pregnant…” Joan faltered, not knowing how to dissuade Nancy.
“Oh, it’s okay, Joan. Don’t worry. I’ve been craving for it, but Jory keeps stopping me. Just eat with me today, okay?” Nancy pleaded while shaking her arm and pouting.
Unable to say no to her, Joan had no choice but to enter the pizza joint with her.
As usual, the two of them asked for a private room, but the person tailing them followed closely.
Seemingly sensing something, Nancy kept glancing around.
“Nancy, what’s wrong? You look anxious,” Joan asked.
She did not want anything to happen to Nancy, who was now pregnant.
“Joan, I don’t know why but I keep having the feeling of being watched. It’s true. I’ve got a good sixth sense,” Nancy replied in a hushed voice with her hand around her mouth.
The two of them were instantly on their guard. It was not safe recently. Besides, Larry had also reminded Joan not to go out before he left for work, so it was normal that someone was following them. However, Joan was worried that Nancy, who was pregnant, would be hurt.
No. I need to make some preparations. Joan took out her phone and made a call.
She then hurriedly said to the phone, “Ask Larry for some time off and come over. Tell him I ask you to come. I’m afraid something will happen to Nancy.”
“Okay, Joan. I’m coming right away.” Caspian hung up the phone.
Larry had never said no to Joan’s request. The fact that she could think of him when she was in trouble was enough to make him happy all day.
“Take more men with you. You must ensure their safety. I’ll hold you responsible if something happens to them,” Larry ordered in a low voice.
Soon, Caspian entered the pizza joint with a group of men. Instead of going directly to Joan’s private room, he first got his men a table. Although he was uncouth, he knew how to reward his men. Moreover, he could afford a pizza meal.
“Boss, those are Larry’s men,” a man with a fierce expression said.
They come here so soon. It seems that Larry really cares a lot about this b*tch.
“Implement Plan B now. Hurry up!”
Knock knock knock.
Nancy looked up at Joan in shock as they did not invite any others over and their food was already served.
Smiling, Joan immediately went to open the door.
She thought that it was Caspian, but it turned out to be a server.
“Miss, here’s some fruit juice on the house. The boss said that pregnant ladies can’t drink alcohol, so it’s better to have some fruit juice,” the server announced with a serious look on his face.
“Oh, thank you,” Joan replied politely without any doubt, not knowing that the server was a man sent by Gabriella.
“Here you go. The boss gives this to you. Drink it. It’s not alcohol.”
Nancy was stunned for a moment.
“There’s no ongoing event at the shop. Seems like the boss gives this only to us,” Nancy muttered.
Without thinking much, Joan poured the fruit juice into their glasses.
Knock knock knock. It was Caspian this time.
“Hey, why are you here? You’re in time to foot the bill,” Nancy said unceremoniously.
She’s still as beautiful and cheerful as usual, but there’s a more feminine air to her now. Caspian smiled.
She should be doing well I guess. ”Yes, I’m here to pay for y’all.”
Seeing that the two of them could still joke together, Joan grinned.
