Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 148 Who Is More Important Westley didnât pay attention to what Gabrielle was saying, and instead pulled her directly into a pavilion halfway up the mountain âWhat are you doing, Westley? Grandma is left behind. You can go quickly with your speed and good strength, but I canât, â
Gabrielle complained to Westley.
As Gabrielleâs face glistened with sweat from the strenuous climb, Westley stared at it with his dark and bright eyes. Perhaps she had run too fast, so her face flushed as a result of that. Her beautiful eyes, in turn, were full of resentment as she returned the stare.
It seemed that something had happened to make Gabrielle really angry. Westley had pulled Gabrielle away from the group and trudged up the mountain with her because he had seen Austinâs eagerness in getting close to Gabrielle. &
But when Gabrielle complimented Westley on his stealth and ability to climb the mountain effortlessly. he suddenly felt much happier.
Men typically liked to be praised for their good health and physical strength.
âI could be much stronger than I am now, but you are too weak compared to me. Youâre already so tired just halfway up the mountain!â exclaimed Westley. commenting on her red face.
Westley suddenly felt a pang of attraction towards Gabrielle overcome him, as the image of them having intercourse on his bed came into his mind. He noticed with praise that she had all the best qualities in a woman that he liked-charming, gorgeous and But she was not strong enough to climb this mountain at Westleyâs pace. She always got overly exhausted after any physical activity to the point of passing That wasnât good; Westley hoped Gabrielle would exercise more to enhance her physical health.
âWhat are you talking about, Westley?
No one else can match up to your energy. least of all me! Youâre insane-youâve already climbed the first round of the mountain but can still go another round. What the hell are you made up of?â Gabrielle could not help whining.
This manâs physical strength didnât seem humanly at all, so how could he compare himself with her and then comment on her bad health? Gabrielle thought it was annoyingly unfair.
âYou asked me what I am made up of. We have had the most intimate intercourse, havenât we?â Here was Westley uttering indecent and private statements with the most serious look on his face. It threw Gabrielle off as she struggled to think about what to say.
If it had been another man, she would have gotten very angry and walked away, or she would have slapped him on his face and called him a rascal.
But she couldnât dare do that to Westley. who was not only her husband but her creditor, too.
âWestley, can you...â Gabrielle flushed and felt an urge to say something.
anything. but when she met his deep eyes, she couldnât continue.
âDamn it! What should I say?â
Her face was extremely red and flushed as she felt the same warmth overtake her body. This man was so devilish in his ways:
he could easily make her uncomfortable at any point.
âCan I what?â asked Westley, raising his eyebrows in an innocent way.
âWestley. can you speak more ... decently?â Gabrielle cleared her throat as she tried to ignore the discomfort she felt in her heart Westley smiled. âSpeak more decently?â Was this woman insinuating that he didnât speak properly with good manners? In his heart of hearts, though, he knew he was being unnecessarily provocative. He even dragged her up the mountain alone so she would avoid Austin.
But he didnât feel any sense of regret towards his actions.
âWell, Iâm not saying that you are ânot normalâ. I just want to say...â When Gabrielle saw Westleyâs quiet and cold face, she immediately backtracked anxiously.
âWhat do you want to say?â Westley stopped smiling and looked at her with a quiet sense of calmness.
Gabrielle didnât like how she was when she was around Westley. She was always uncomfortable and she never acted like herself at all. She would end up doing uncharacteristic things and upset herself.
How annoying!
âI meant to say ... Miss Edwards is here. You should have a talk with her. I think she is very happy to see you.â Gabrielle changed the topic in a hurry.
She was in such a state of flurry and panic that she began to talk about Holly in order to ease the embarrassment and distract him.
Obviously, Holly would be unhelpful in alleviating the situation between them, and in fact, made the embarrassing atmosphere worse.
âI donât want to talk to her at all! Itâs none of my business whether she is happy to see me or not. Or do you want Holly to talk to me so you can talk to Austin unscrupulously? I saw that you were happy to see him.â Westley narrowed his eyes at her, anger bubbling beneath the surface, âDamn it! I said something wrong.â
Couldnât she mention Holly without it backfiring on her like this?
She could see that Holly really liked Westley. Every time she saw him, she always wanted to get close to him and be around him.
This was why Gabrielle thought it would be a good idea to bring her into the conversation.
But she didnât see it coming, that Westley would turn it around on her by talking about Austin.
âBrother Austin? He is my senior and my good friend. Of course Iâm happy to see him,â Gabrielle said to Westley.
She didnât want to say anything bad about Austin just to make Westley happy Austin was genuinely nice to her. Thanks to his help, she had the opportunity to work in Jasonâs studio, âWow, is Austin really that nice to you?â Westley began to feel an amalgamation of emotions when he heard her words.
But he chose not to say anything about it. It wasnât his right to do so, let alone persuade Gabrielle to dislike Austin.
felt strangely Regardless, he uncomfortable.
âIâve told you before, Gabrielle. I donât care what kind of relationship you used to have. From now on, you can only be Austinâs sister-in-law. Remember your place and keep in mind that the relationship between you two is not the same. Donât do anything you should not do.â Westley said coldly.
Gabrielle got goosebumps on her neck as she trembled to hear him say what he did. What did he mean by that?
âWhat is he trying to say, that I can only be the sister-in-law of Austin in the future? And what does he mean by ordering me not to do anything I shouldnât?
What the hell! Itâs none of his business. There isnât anything improper going on between Austin and me, anyway.â
In reality, they were just friends and that was all there was to it.
No matter whether Westley believed it or not.
âWestley, Brother Austin and I never have, nor will we be anything that you seem to think we are. We are just friends.â Gabrielle tried her best to explain âWhat? Brother Austin? Youâre his sister in-law. You can only call him Austin from now on,â Westley ordered in a rage.
Damn it! It was so unreasonable.
Yes, initially it was a fake marriage that had been set up between them, but now it was turning into a real one. He had just ordered her with the authority of a husband. How could he have done that?
âWestley, this is beyond unfair. There is nothing going on between us. Are you going to restrict me from making friends now?â Gabrielle stared at Westley unhappily.
âYes, itâs unfair. The world is unfair, and it wouldâve been unfair had we not gotten married. Donât forget why that happened. Who is more important to you, Bryce or Austin?â Westley threatened.
