Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 15 Deep Resentment Gabrielle was obviously ingratiating Westley. but he didnât stop her because he wanted to see how long she could continue doing it.
He looked at her from head to toe as if scrutinizing her, thinking inwardly. âItâs a pity that she doesnât even know how hypocritical she looks while fawning over me.
Wendy knew that Westley hated the Jones family. Of course, he also disliked Gabrielle because of that. But she didnât expect him to hate them this much.
He was not only unfriendly to her and to Tobias, but he was also cold and mean to Gabrielle She had originally planned to reap some benefits from Gabrielle, so she used Gabrielle to make atonement for Westley, Gabrielle was beautiful anyway. As long as she worked hard, she could easily conquer a manâs heart. At most, she only had to work a little harder to get a man like Westley.
But upon seeing his attitude now, it seemed that no matter how hard she tried, it wouldnât work on him.
TÃ he was really intered, he could annihilate the entire Jones Wendy couldnât just sit still and wait for it to happen. She needed to do something to protect the Jones family and Bryce âWestley, we will keep in mind everything youâve just said. We will definitely find Bryce and Miss Collins as soon as possible. By the way, we have been talking for so long. Why donât we eat some fruits first?â As she spoke, Wendy put an apple and a fruit knife in Gabrielleâs hands, hinting her to peel the apple for Westley Gabrielle was extremely reluctant, but she still pretended to be very willing âGabrielle, you donât have to peel that. I donât eat any fruits peeled by someone else, â Westley snapped, glancing at her coldly.
He never cared to show respect for her at all. E Her hands froze for a moment. Then the corner of her mouth raised. âIâll peel it for myself then.â
Knowing that Gabrielle was always good at playing innocent, Westley didnât bother to talk more.
âSince we have paid you a visit and delivered Mileyâs gift for you, Iâll leave now.â He stood up and prepared to leave. He had no intention of staying any longer.
âWestley, letâs have lunch first. I know that you and Gabrielle are coming today, so Iâve ordered our cook to prepare a special meal for you.â
âI appreciate your kindness, Mrs. Jones. But lunch is not necessary,â he said indifferently without hesitation.
Seeing how he rejected Wendyâs invitation rudely made Gabrielle feel really uncomfortable.
Wendy was not her biological mother, but she had always respected her. After all, Wendy didnât mistreat her. Although Wendy let her do some household chores occasionally, she didnât take it against her.
Gabrielle was still in a daze when her phone suddenly rang. It happened to be an unfamiliar number, so she hesitated to answer it for a while. But then, she thought that it could be one of their customers in the jewelry shop. It must be important, so she couldnât just ignore it.
âHello? This is Gabrielle,â she answered.
âGabrielle, this is Grandma.â Mileyâs cheerful voice came through from the other end of the line. tent She was a little stunned as she didnât expect to receive a call from Westleyâs grandmother.
âHello, Grandma, What can I do for you?â she respectfully said, then subconsciously glanced at Westley.
He coincidentally looked at her too, so their eyes met. She avoided his gaze at once.
âAre you in the Jonesâ villa now?â
âYes, Grandma. I arrived a while ago.â
âIs Westley still there too?â
âYes, heâs here.â If Miley called one minute later, Westley would have already driven away. After all, Gabrielle definitely couldnât stop him. And no one from the Jones family would dare to stop him either.
Asking him to enter the Jones familyâs villa was already enough to make him angry. If they forced him to stay and have lunch with them, he might set the entire house on fire in a fit of rage âGabrielle, give your phone to Westley. I want to talk to him,â Miley said in a gentle tone.
She liked Gabrielle so much, so she was always nice to her.
Gabrielle obediently handed the phone to Westley. âItâs Grandma,â
Westleyâs expression darkened at once. He was obviously not happy. Even his eyes Eumed colder when he looked at her.
Gabrielle knew why he gave her such kind of look, but she didnât call his grandmother first and she had nothing to do with this.
Completely ignoring the innocent look in her eyes, Westley took the phone from her and walked out of the house.
âHi, Grandma. Whatâs up?â Westley casually said while standing in the yard. His voice was cold, but his tone was much gentler.
âWestley, Iâm glad that youâre still there. I thought that Gabrielle has lied to me. Itâs your first time to visit the Jones with her today.
Make sure to have lunch with them. And if possible, stay there overnight,â Miley urged. 2 âGrandma, Iâm actually about to leave. I have something else to do.â
âWhat? Do you want me to call Wilson back? Or you are deliberately pissing me off.â Miley immediately made a fuss. 2 Westley couldnât help rolling his eyes. She was using Wilson to threaten him again. Couldnât she think of something new?
Chap However, he always didnât have the heart to refuse ler.
In fact, aside from forcing the Jones, one of the reasons why he decided to marry Gabrielle temporarily was to make his grandmother happy. She had not been feeling well these days, and he knew that seeing him getting married would delight her.
âOkay, Grandma. I promise, I will stay here with Gabrielle, he agreed without hesitation.
Mileyâs lips immediately curved into a smile. âThatâs good. I know that your relationship with Gabrielle is not deep. But you need to slowly cultivate it. You canât do things in a hurry, and I understand that. If you donât want to stay overnight, you can leave after lunch. I just want you to leave a good impression on the Jones.â
Westley snorted inwardly. âLeave a good impression on the Jones?
No way! It is the Jones who owes me.â
If anyone from the Jones pissed him off, he could immediately make them all disappear from Antawood But he had to grant Mileyâs reques because he knew that it would make her happy.
Chapter 15 Chap Hermeni As for cultivating his relationship with Gabrielle, he didnât have any plan. She would have to get out of his life as soon as Nellie came back. Why did he have to waste time cultivating his relationship with a substitute? Besides, only Miley treated her as a granddaughter-in-law.
âWestley, did you hear what I said? Donât make the Morris lose face in front of your in laws.â This time, Miley raised her voice, and she sounded really serious.
âGrandma, I am also a Morris. I wonât do anything to disgrace our family,â Westley assured her with a smile.
âWell, itâs good that you still remember your last name.â Obviously. Mileyâs mood lightened up upon hearing what he said.
When Westley walked out of the house, everyone the living room seemed much more relaxed.
Gabrielle took a bite of the apple to calm herself down, but Wendy suddenly grabbed it from her.
âMom...â She looked up at Wendy in confusion, only to see Wendy fuming with rаgе.
They were in the Jonesâ villa, but Westley Chapter 15 Deep Resentment didnât show any respect to them at all. How could Wendy not be angry?
âGabrielle, how can you still eat? Youâve been married to Westley for three days now, but he still treats you with such attitude.
Shouldnât you be reflecting on yourself?â She looked at Gabrielle with disappointment in her eyes.
Gabrielle understood what she meant but pretended to be clueless. âMom, why do I have to reflect on myself? I will be out of his life as soon as Bryce brings Nellie back, right? Youâve promised to find him immediately, remember?â
âYes, we are looking for him. In fact, we never stopped. But the world is so big. Where on earth are we going to find him? There are billions of people in the world. Looking for him is like looking for a needle in a haystack, âWendy replied as her eyes flickered.
