Chapter 2967

"I missed you so much, Larry!"

That single utterance had fury blazing within Joan.

Damn you, Larry! He has truly gotten himself a mistress out there! "Larry isn't here!"

Joan snapped at the woman in front of her after swinging open the door.

Hmm? She looks rather familiar, but why can't I remember who she is? Gabriella scratched her head as she scrutinized Joan intently.

Likewise, Joan shared her sentiments. But for some reason, besides familiarity, the first feeling that struck her at the sight of Gabriella was predominantly fear.

"Where's Larry? Also, who are you, and why are you here?"

Gabriella demanded loudly as she thrust a finger in Joan's face.

Indeed, she had lost her memories a year ago.

Apart from her family, Larry was the only person she remembered.

"I'm Larry's girlfriend? Joan answered firmly.

Hmph! I just want to see what she's trying to do now! "What? Larry has a girlfriend now? Why? Why didn't you wait for me, Larry?"

All of a sudden, Gabriella crouched and started wailing.

Oh my God, what bad luck! How did I get stuck in this mess? Joan's expression turned dour.

"Um...Why don't you get up first? Larry is really not home. He has gone on a business trip, so I'll tell him that you came over when he returns" she suggested while helping the woman on the ground up. In truth, she was truly incensed just now, but she then felt bad at the sight of Gabriella's heart-rending sobs.

"I'd like to have some water' Gabriella entreated coquettishly as she wiped the tears on her face.

"Alright, alright.Come, I'll get you some water."

As the two women sat on the sofa in the living room, the atmosphere was a tad awkward.

Gabriella looked around with dejection in her eyes.

How could Larry date another woman? How could he abandon me? At that thought, the grief within her bubbled over, and she started weeping again.

As Joan stared at the tormented expression of the woman before her, unease welled within her. She didn't quite know what to say or how to face her.

Ah, I must have owed her in the past lifetime! Otherwise, why would she suddenly turn up here? "What's your name?"

Gabriella abruptly stopped crying and asked seriously, her gaze pinned on the woman in front of her.

"I'm Joan Watts"

Joan hastily replied, not daring to dawdle for a single moment.

"Nice to meet you, Joan. I'm Gabriella Ward? Gabriella declared.

I Know.

And? She has had water and cried her heart out, so shouldn't she be leaving since Larry is truly not at home now? Looking at her expectantly, Joan forced a smile.

"Come! Come here!"

As Gabriella said that, she pulled her into the washroom.

"Say, which of us is more beautiful?" she questioned softly while pointing at the mirror.

Huh? What kind of question is that? Why is she suddenly debating such a pointless subject when she was just fine earlier?

"Well? Answer me! Tell me who's more beautiful!"

Gabriella raised her voice and demanded in a near shout.

"You, you. Of course, you're more beautiful" Joan hastily replied.

Well, she's indeed beautiful, but she's cuckoo.

"Then, why does Larry like you instead of me? Why?"

"Uh...please stop crying. You've been crying for a long time, so you should stop while you're ahead. If you continue doing so, your makeup is going to end up ruined!" Joan quickly cajoled.

"Who cares? Larry isn't here, so what does it matter?"

Gabriella started howling at the top of her lungs once more. Oh God, this is ridiculous! Taking a deep breath, Joan closed her eyes and tried to compose herself. "Okay, okay. Then, how about having some water before you continue crying? Your tears are drying up, so you've got to drink some water to replenish" While saying that, Joan pushed her out.
