Link to external workbook regardless of user

I have a cell in Workbook1 that links to the value in Workbook2 in Google Drive. The formula will show the below:

 

='C:\Users\JaneDoe\Google Drive\ABC Pte Ltd\[Q - VAS-Quote-Current.xlsm]Customer'!A11

 

When another user using another computer opens the file, it'll show the below (same as above) and will not update to the correct value.

 

='C:\Users\JaneDoe\Google Drive\ABC Pte Ltd\[Q - VAS-Quote-Current.xlsm]Customer'!A11

 

Is there anyway I can make it such that it'll reference to the actual workbook2 regardless of users? Preferably without VBA?

 

Thanks!

    Where is Workbook1 located? If in the same folder, normally this should work.
