Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1556
Gabriella had gotten used to the life of overspending. Even now, she had yet to get rid of this habit
of hers.
Even though Landon had given her a large amount of money before he left, she soon almost
finished spending it.
In the beginning, Gabriella had some savings left, but she had spent a substantial amount hiring
assassins with Carl and paying those people to keep things a secret.
Back then, Gabriella had spent all of her savings.
Now that she had none of Landonâs money left, she had to figure out how she was going to live
without money.
She was too used to her care life; Gabriella did not even know how to do basic housework, not to
mention cooking for herself.
The moment she found herself stuck in this situation, the first thought Gabriella had was to seek her
friendsâ help.
In the past, the proud Gabriella would have never asked for help, but now, things were different.
âHey, Lulu? I'm Gabriella.â
No longer the arrogant woman she was, Gabriella began chuckling when the call went through.
"Oh, it's Gabriella. How strange. Why would you think of calling me?â came the sarcastic voice from
the other end of the line.
âI-I have a favor to ask. Don't worry, Lulu. I'll definitely return the favor in the future,â Gabriella
continued as if she had not heard the tone of the other woman.
"What is it? Speak your mind,â Lulu muttered nonchalantly.
âCan you lend me some money? I'm really in need of some money now. I'll definitely return it to you
in the future,â Gabriella guaranteed.
âBorrowing money? This isn't like you, Ms. Ward. Arent you a conceited girl in the past? Didn't you
always ignore everyone? Does the high and mighty Ms. Ward need to borrow money from others
now? Have you ever thought of a day like this when you were mocking me back then? Let's put
aside the fact that I won't ever lend you any money first. Even if I did, how are you going to give the
money back to me? Do you really think you're still the beloved daughter of the Wards? Sober up.
You're nothing now.â
With a bitter look on her face, Gabriella awkwardly mumbled, âAll right, then. Luly, I'll be getting out
of your way now.â
Gabriella swiftly ended the call, not wanting to endure the humiliation a second longer.
She had always been a proud individual. Even if she was now a down-and-out socialite, she did not
want to beg for anything from anyone.
However, she still needed help from others; she did not know what else to do.
Mustering her courage, Gabriella then made another call, âJemma, I need your help with something.
I was wondering if you canâ"
âLend you some money? Hahaha! I'm sorry, Gabriella. Lulu called me earlier, telling me that the dear
Ms. Ward was asking if she could borrow money from her. I didnât believe in her at the start, but
now I do. Gabriella Ward, you brought this upon yourself. I won't lend you the money. I'd rather
throw them into the sea than to give them to an ingrate like you.â
With that said, Jemma ended the call.
âKelsi, I'm a little short of money recently. Can you lend some to me? I'll definitely give it back to
you in a while. Trust me.â
âGabriella, I know you're in some difficult times now, but I really don't have the money. I've used
them all on plastic surgery. I'm sorry. Next time. When I have money in the future, I'll definitely lend
you some.â
âThank you, Kelsi. I'll end the call, then.â Gabriella ended the call.
How can she not have the money? She just doesn't want to give it to me, the girl who's no longer
the rich daughter of the Wards.
A bitter smile crept upon Gabriellaâs face. It was then she realized she had no true friends; they were
all only interested in her status. Even if they put on a friendly demeanor when they interacted with
her, Gabriella realized they must have despised her.
Maybe I used to have real friends, Gabriella thought sullenly. But I chased them all away myself.
