Chapter 189 Shameless Gabrielle prepared to hit the ground, but a big hand grabbed her waist. Suddenly. she found herself in familiar yet strange afins.
âDo I scare you? Why are you acting so scared after seeing me?â Westley asked with raised eyebrows.
âItâs not like that. Anyone be startled if you suddenly come out without warning, â She immediately got out of his embrace and took a step backward with a worried expression. When Westley saw how she reacted, he frowned.
He had no idea why she reacted that way when he touched her. Although he saved her, she suddenly shoved him away like he had a plague As such, Westley was unhappy. It seemed that Gabrielle was always putting himn in a bad mood.
âWhat are you doing here, Westley?â When she noticed Westleyâs displeased look, Gabrielle immediately changed her lone. As such, she could at least talk to him in case he lost his tempat.
âArenât you looking for this?â With a frowni, Westley placed the luffa on her hand.
Since Gabrielle was short, she couldnât have reached it from the tree without Westleyâs help.
âThank you, Westley.â She took it and put it into the basket. Then, she tumed around and was about to leave.
âDo you hate me that much, Gabrielle?â Westley couldnât help but ask when he noticed how desperately she tried to avoid him, a Speechless, Gabrielle raised her head and silently stared at him. Her mind still had a lot of things in it. As such, she never tried to rebut him.
âWhat? Itâs not like that. Iâm not avoiding you,â she answered in an awkward voice.
However, Westley immediately knew that she was lying when he saw her weird expression. He realized that Gabrielle must have been cursing him in her heart âHey, about Holly âI can understand why you havenât told mnie about Holly. Itâs fine.â Gabrielle said even before he could finish his sentence, She assumed that Westley gave more importance to Holly compared to her.
It was expected since Holly and Westley had been friends for several years. Meanwhile, Gabrielle and Westley were only husband and wife because of a contract. There was no love between them. As such, they had a different type of connection.
Moreover, Gabrielle didnât want to be the reason for causing a rift between Holly and Westley âWhy are you interrupting me? Do you already know what Iâm about to say, Gabrielle?â Westley got angry when she interrupted him.
âWestley, let me ask you a question, Who do you believe, Holly or me?â A serious expression painted her face as she stared at him.
âI believe you, of course,â
Westley immediately said in a confident tone, Surprised, she stared at him with wide eyes. âWhat if I told you that I was the one who scared her and made her fall into the lake? Are you going to believe âI will believe it if you say that it is your fault.â However, he didnât mean that he was giving Gabrielle favorable treatment. All he wanted to say what that since they were a couple, he would always be by her side. 2 Although Gabrielle enjoyed his sentiment, she tried hard to hide her happiness.
âWell, I still donât admit it.â Then, she tumed around and ran away with her basket.
Amused, Westley smiled while watching her run away. âShe seemed like a docile rabbit who will never bite anyone. However, she will suddenly bite them and run away in fear,â he thought with a smicker When Westley was about to retum inside, his phone suddenly Tang. When he looked at the screen, he saw that Alvin was calling him. Westley leaned against a pillar and answered the call. âHello, Alvin.
Why are you calling âI called because Mrs. Collins is looking for you and wants to talk about Nellie.â
Westley widened his eyes in surprise. He never expected Mrs. Collins to talk to him about Nellie After all, the Collins family hadnât apologized to him yet.
After what happened to Helena, the Collins family pestered the Morris family almost every day. It was only after the Montis family paid a huge sum of money that the Collins family finally stopped.
When Nellie ran away from the wedding, the Collins family didnât even dare to face the Morris family. And now, they Suddenly appeared, which meant that they had an update on Nellie.
âMy schedule is full. We can meet at a later date. Moreover, continue monitoring Bryce and Nellie. Since they already went abroad, never let them return to this country,â .
Westley ordered in a callous voice.
When Bryce and Nellie ran away, they eloped abroad. As such, they didnât have to return right away. They might as well live there for some time.
âMr. Morris, youâre saying that you donât want them to retum. However, you re still waiting for Nellie.
You want her to replace Gabrielle, right?â
Alvin had no idea what his boss was planning. Westley had asked him to Search for Bryce and Nellie abroad. And now that he found them, Westley didnât want Nellie to come back home. Alvin felt confused.
âAlvin, whatâs your opinion about Gabrielle?â Westley suddenly asked.
âMiss Jones is a proper lady. She is mild and modest,â Alvin answered with the first image that came to his mind.
He and Gabrielle never spent much time together. Those few times that he met her, she always seemed humble and obedient.
âMild and modest Westley was taken aback by Alvinâs answer Actually, most people would have the impression that Gabrielle was a docile creature. However, when cornered, she would show her fangs and fight.
If provoked, she wouldnât be as obedient as most people believed.
âYes. Sheâs mild and modest, right?â Alvin curiously asked with a hint of confusion.
Certainly, that was what he thought of Gabrielle.
âDonât worry about it. You keep in mind the things Iâve told you. Moreover, never tell Mrs. Collins that Iâm in the countryside. Iâll return to the city tomorrow if not today, Westley told Alvin in a cold voice.
âDonât worry. Mr. Morris. I know how to handle Mrs. Collins. When she came to the company earlier, I told her you were away on a business trip. After hearing that, she immediately left.â Alvin briefly explained what happened.
âMoreover, send some to watch the Collins family. They are asking the Morris family for help now that their group is in chaos. As such, they must have some problems.â Westley was familiar with the Collins family. In the last five years, whenever the Collins family was in trouble, they would always ask the Momnis family for help.
After what happened, they never went to the Morris family again except for serious issues. As such, the Collins family always relied on them whenever there was something they couldnât handle.
Self-preservation was always more important than pride, after all.
âI understand, Mr. Moms. I will watch them carefully.â
Alvin obediently accepted Westleyâs order without any complaints. It was his job to fulfill Westleyâs commands.
âGreat. If something comes up, call me immediately.â Since Westley was in a terrible mood, he immediately ended the call. The moment he raised his head, he noticed Gabrielle walking out of the room. It seemed that she was holding her mobile phone.
After looking around for a while, she went inside the room.
