Chapter 3093 Fate
“Don’t you assume that a few pieces of strawberries are enough for me to forgive you!” Gabriella exclaimed.
Forgive me? For what? What did I do? Joan looked at Gabriella, puzzled by her statement, looking fairly confused.
“How wonderful! You actually forgot all about it, huh! So this is your true nature, Ms. Watts. How dare you forget the promise we made together! Weren’t you the one that said you wanted to start an eatery? Weren’t you the one that said you’d make amazing food for me?” Gabriella pointed her finger straight at Joan’s nose.
Joan was dumbfounded. Eatery? You’re the one that said you wanted to do it, though. And about making food for you? You were the one that kept pestering me about it! You cheeky woman! You’ll say anything to get what you want, huh?
“I don’t care! You promised to start up an eatery with me, Joan!” Gabriella suddenly went down and sat on the floor, exactly like how a kid would.
Did I owe her something in my past life? Why does she always have to make me suffer? Joan dusted off her palms, turned around, and left the scene.
Now that everyone knew why Gabriella was here, they relaxed and dropped their guard. It was clear to them that Gabriella was in the same situation as Joan. They both lost their memories.
The current situation was better than how Gabriella used to always think about how to set Joan up.
Larry raised his head and looked to the sky as he felt relieved.
“What are you doing?” Gabriella slapped his shoulders forcefully as she exclaimed.
“It’s nothing,” Larry answered calmly.
“Umm… Are you close with Jake Wilson?” She added out of the blue.
What? Jake? Why did she ask something like this out of nowhere? Larry turned towards Gabriella and saw that her cheeks were bright red.
Is she embarrassed? Don’t tell me… She’s in love with Jake? Larry proceeded to inspect the person in front of him curiously, perplexed about her choice in men.
“Gabriella, what’s wrong with you? Do you like Jake?” Larry asked while staring intently at her.
Huh? “What’s wrong with that?” Why are you so surprised? You can love Joan, but I can’t love Jake? How is that fair?
“How could you like… Wait. No… You like Jake, right? If you like him, pursue him! Show him your love!” Larry continued.
Never would he have thought that Gabriella would fall in love with Jake after she lost her memories. Is this considered fate? Larry was unconcerned as long as it was not something twisted.
“Tell me! What would you like to do?” Larry gave her a pat on the back.
“I… I want to ask him out for a meal.” Gabriella lowered her head and spoke in a shy tone.
What’s going on here? Why is she suddenly so shy? This is weird!
“Hey, can you act like you normally do? I’ve never actually seen you this shy before, and it’s creeping me out,” Larry commented.
“Hey! I’m a shy girl, you know!” Gabriella said coquettishly.
Now, that’s a lie. Larry was reminded of the time before he married Joan. Gabriella would always appear at the company and look for him.
He shot a look at her, amused at what was going on.
Truth be told, this was good for Larry. It’d be too late if she ever regains her memories. By then, she wouldn’t bother me anymore.
“Larry, what are you plotting in your head now?” Gabriella tightened her grip on his arm.
“Nothing, of course! What would I be plotting for?” Larry said. “Alright. You should get on with your business.” And he left.
Regarding the eatery, Joan and Gabriella went through a thorough discussion and decided to tone down the scale as Joan still had to take care of the flowers with Delilah.
“Why do you still care about those flowers, though? Isn’t it better to make some more dishes and make more money?” Gabriella mumbled while she did some work.
