Chapter 13 You Don’t Deserve To Be My Sister They did not speak a word to each other on the way until the car arrived at the gate of the Jones. Needless to say, Gabrielle didn’t dare to open her mouth in front of Westley because she was afraid that he would throw her out of the car if she had said something to irk him.

Besides, Westley had no intentions of talking to Gabrielle either so the atmosphere in the Car was quiet and uncomfortable.

Fortunately, they arrived at their destination soon enough.

As soon as the car stopped in front of their gate, Tobias led his wife, Wendy Carter and a beautiful young girl to welcome them.

The moment Gabrielle saw the girl’s face, a twinge of disappointment clouded her happiness She was Wendy’s niece and Bryce’s cousin, Mindy Carter. The woman was snobbery incarnate. The only thing she was good at was flattering the rich and belittling the poor, Of course, she hated Gabrielle very much.

After all, the fact that Gabrielle, an adopted daughter of the Jones, w more beautiful than she was, Fave Mindy enough reason to hate her:

Westley, you are finally here. You must be tired from driving all the way here.” Tobias immediately greeted Westley with a big smile.

Westley responded, however, by simply nodding his head without even the slightest. bit of enthusiasm on his face.

Tobias‘ face fell in embarrassment as though someone had poured a bucket of cold water on his head, but he still kept a smile on his “Westley, you must be tired. Let’s go inside, so you can have a rest.”

Tobias immediately brushed aside Westley’s rude behavior with a friendly suggestion.

Gabrielle sneered in her heart, ‘It’s not a big deal at all. The drive from here to the Vineyard Villa is less than one hour. How can he be tired?’ 2 It was clear to her that Westley had no intentions of warming up to the Jones.

“Hello, Westley. It’s very nice to meet you. I’m Mindy Carter, the cousin of the Jones, but you can call me Mindy!” With a big smile on her face, Mindy rushed to Wentley’s side and introduced herself Westley’s perfect figure and handsome face, coupled with his identity sig the CEO of the Morris Group, made him the Mr. Right for all the women in the city: the best choice to many in every woman’s heart.

Mindy was no different and she couldn’t pass on such an opportunity to draw his attention.

The way Mindy tried her best to please the powerful and rich made Gabrielle sick to her stomach.

“Miss Carter, we are not familiar with each other yet. You are the cousin of the Jones, not the Morris.” Westley turned down Mindy’s “friendly‘ approaches with a cold response.

Mindy’s face froze. When she heard that Westley and Gabrielle were coming to visit the Jones today, she had been anxiously waiting to meet him in person.

Gabrielle was the one person she despised most in the whole world. Not only because she was adopted, but also because Gabrielle secretly liked Bryce and wanted to be with him. 5 Moreover, Mindy’s hatred towards Gabrielle grew stronger when she ended up getting married to Westley.

When Mindy had tirgu her sint Wendy to When Mindre find a mat for her, she had no idea that Gabrielle would end up marrying the man every woman in the city desired. What a stroke of luck!

“Westley. L... I’m Gabrielle’s cousin. You’re her husband and my brother-in-law now. Can I call you my brother-in-law?” Mindy softened her tone to please Westley.

Tf it weren’t for the fact that she desperately wanted to get close to Westley, Mindy would have never considered calling Gabrielle her cousin. After all, what could be more shameful and humiliating than to be related to Gabrielle?

“Is she really your cousin?” Needless to say. Westley could tell that Mindy was just trying to flatter him on purpose.

He could never bring himself to like a woman with such an obsequious personality.

As such, he hurled the question at Gabrielle because he could easily sense a disparity between the two women.

“Gabrielle! I am your cousin, your younger sister! Am I right?” Mindy looked at Gabrielle with wide eyes and the tone of her voice was painfully coy. Her eyes were sending the message that if Gabrielle had denied it in front of Westley, she would never forgive her for the rest of her life “She is my brother’s cousin. It’s quite hot out here. Why don’t we go inside?” Gabrielle didn’t confirm Mindy’s question nor did she completely deny it to save her from total embarrassment.

Tobias respectfully led Westley into the house. When Gabrielle was about to step inside. Mindy grabbed her hand all of a sudden.

“Gabrielle, why did you insult me like that? Did you do it on purpose?” Mindy spoke through gritted teeth, stilling her anger.

Gabrielle, however, slowly pusher her hand away and gave Mindy an indifferent glance, “Mindy, if you want to suck up to Westley, it’s up to you, but if you don’t have the ability to please him, don’t be mad at me. I only spoke the truth. You are my brother’s cousin, not mine. You’ve made that clear to me before. I have no interest in being related to you.”

Gabrielle seemed like someone who could be easily bullied, but in truth, she was like a spring. The more she was pressed, the harder she pushed back.

If someone treated her well, she would double her gratitude and if someone treated her badly, she wouldn’t hesitate to fight fire with fire.

Mindy’s hostility towards Gabrielle was born out of the fact that Gabrielle was just an outsider who was picked up from the orphanage by the Jones. When she came to find that Gabrielle had romantic feelings for Bryce, Mindy wanted to renounce the woman from the Jones.

After all, what did Gabrielle do for the Jones in return of raising her and giving her a good life? She paid them back with ungratefulness and disrespect. 2 “Gabrielle, all of a sudden you think you’re some kind of a big shot now that you’re married to Westley, huh? But I know the truth!

Westley only married you because his fiancee eloped with Bryce and he had no choice but to take you as his bride. When that woman comes back into his life, you will have no place in his home. You are destined to become a married woman who will be abandoned by your own husband. How pitiful! – Mindy didn’t hold back on the unpleasant words she hurled at Gabrielle. After all, she wouldn’t be satisfied if she didn’t belittle her.

“Mindy, my life is of no concern to you. I don’t need you to worry about me,” said T TO BEM Ch 13 You Don Gabrielle coldly.

“Gabrielle, you...”

Mindy, what are you doing there?” When Wendy came out again and saw the two quarreling again, she immediately pulled a long face.

After all, Westley had already gone inside and they were still quarreling. She didn’t want him to think that the Jones was mistreating Gabrielle.

No matter how Wendy felt about her, Gabrielle was now at least Westley’s wife. And he had accompanied her for the visit which was a traditional rite for newly married couples. It was clear to see that the man somewhat cared about Gabrielle.

Wendy was almost certain that Westley would never accompany Gabrielle to meet the Jones under such circumstances. 1 After all, Gabrielle was just atoning for what Bryce had done. Besides, Gabrielle was only fulfilling the role of a substitute. How could she expect him to fulfill the traditional rite?

“Aunt, I’m not quarreling. It’s Gabrielle who....

“Mom, Mindy and I are just having fun. Don’t worry about us.” Gabrielle was always a good Chapter 13 You Don’t Deserye To DEMY daughter in front of Wendy. Since she spoke in such a soft voice, Wendy naturally had nothing to say.

“Mindy. Gabrielle, I know you two have been fighting since you were children, just don’t make a scene here on this special day. Mindy, if you keep making trouble, I’ll have to send you back home.” Almost always, Wendy would take Mindy’s side, but this time, she took Gabrielle’s side for Westley’s sake. +

“Mom, I’ll go inside first,” Gabrielle said as she stepped inside.
