Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 299 An Obsessed Wife Lolita gave Gabrielle a friendly pat on the shoulder as she laughed at her statement. âDonât be ridiculous! I am beyon delighted that you had the opportuotiy to attend this once in a lifetime seminar Itâs a little upsetting for you to stnk that I would be unhappy about it. After all, we are good friends, arenât ?â She gave Gabrielle another tap on the shoulder and smiled ever-so svetly. âIt was stupid one. I was superficial. I thought...
âWhy is that? Did you expect me to be upset and jealous over the fact that you got in and I didnât? Itâs a mere seminar. I have been studying abroad for over five years. I couldnât care less about it. Besides, I already have attended countless design exhibitions and seminars. Scratch that. A hero keeps mum about his glories. Iâm just starting out as an intern designer. My colleagues are young and promising. Plus, I met a charming friend.â She pinched Gabrielleâs face and beamed with glte.
âIâm sorry, I should have told you earlier, I was afraid it would upset you.â Gabrielle apologized with utmost sincerity.
âSilly girl, thereâs no need to be so formal. I told you, weâre friends. I in overjoyed that you would be able to go toe the seminar.
Would you like to the dinner so we could officially celgrale this amazing feat?â Lolita aske out of courtesy Gabrielle was a mere student. If she had to attend classes, she wouldnât be able to come visit. This cottumstance did not make her a friend on the regular.
They used to have dinner together every once in a while but it had been so long since that last happened.
âLetâs have dinner in a couple of days. Iâm afraid I have made prior arrangements for tonight.â it suddenly dawned on her that she had to cook supper for Westley. She had broken one of her promises before, she couldnât afford to break any more. Gabrelle was Eemnified that her husband would eat her alive if she did.
âAlright. You can get that out of the way first, weâll have dinner at a time thatâs convenient for you. I have to congratulate you again. You alte amazing. Gabrielle. Iâm proud of you!â Lolita had the utmost respect and reverence for her capabilities. Gabrielleâs talents and willingness to work hard were indege beyond admirable. Without a ting of doubt, God would bless such a pepon.
âRest assured that I will utk harder. Thank you.â
Gabrielle dropped by the supermarket after work. She went home with two bags worth of groceries and a bouquet of flowers from the local floral shop.
Sophie was there to bring the bags in when Gabrielle got off the taxi from the front yard. It was particularly difficult for her to carry heavy things since she had not fully recovered from her injury yet.
âThank you, Sophie. Itâs a little too much, isnât it?â Embarrassment was pasted on her face as Gabrielle looked at Sophie.
She was overwhelmed and a little pressured over the idea of making a leasi fit for a king that she almost bought the entire supermarket.
âItâs nothing to worry about, Mrs. Morris. Your wounds still havenât healed, why didnât you ask me to carry the bags out earlier?â Sophie couldnât help but WOITY about her injury âIâm fine. Iâll be back on my feet in time. It wasnât that serious to begin with. â Gabrielle gave her a reassuring alle.
âIâm certain that Mr. Morris will be over the moon once he sees wd an amazing meal you have prepared for him!â Sophie exclaimed as she fought the bags of food into the kitchen âI could only hope that it wonât upset him.â Gabrielle was afraid that dinner would not be to Westleyâs liking.
âHe certainly wonât be. Please, if I may be as bold as to say, heâd love it.â Sophie glanced at the ingredients and saw that they were all Westleyâs favorites.
Gabrielle was, indeed, thoughtful. It was a gem to see a child this considerate.
The document Alvin sent made her life unbelievably easier. It was written in detail what food Wesiley loved and hated With full knowledge of his preferences, making dinner for Westley was not so difficult âSophie, if you could be so kind as to please put these flowers in a vase. Your can place them on the table when you te finished.â
Gabrielle handed here the bouquet âIâve placed the flowers on the table, Mrs. Morris. Call me if you need anything.â
Sophie sniffed the banuet of flowers. They were addictive tragrant.
Her daily showcase of virtue made Sophie understand, more than ever, just how much of an amenable woman Gabrielle was.
Everyone she crossed paths with would definitely love her.
It wasnât a surprise that she managed to capture Westleyâs heart despite him being so stoic and cold.
It definitely was an endeavor for men not to fall head over heels with a girl as promising as Gabrielle. Especially not after one had spent quite a considerable amount of time with her.
âOkay. Iâll be sure to call on you if i ever need anything. In the meantime, would it be okay if you left me with my own company?â
Gabrielle enjoyed having some alone time in the kitchen.
âAlright, Iâll go ahead.â With the flowers in her anns, Sophie walked out of thea room, beaming from ear to ear.
Soon after putting her apron, Gabrielle began to prepare that mise en When Westley arrived home, he saw Sophie watering the plants in the yard but Gabrielle was where to be found.
He had agreed to pick her up from work. Unfortunately, he was held back by a meeting. By the time he dropped by the studio, Gabrielle had already gone. He drove home soon thereafter.
âMr. Morris, youâre here,â Sophie chirped. âIs Gabrielle home?â Westley asked as he hurried to go inside.
âMrs. Morris came back early. Sheâs in the kitchen making supper for the two o! You.â Sophie answered with a wide grin pilastered on her face.
There was a twinkle in Westleyâs Eyes when he heard what she said. The dinner he had been looking forward to for so long was finally happening.

There, he saw his beautiful wife in an apron. Gabrielle was in front of the stove, so intently immersed in her cooking that she did not notice Westley come in.
Gabrielle put the spatula down to tend to the soup but forgot to take the potholder, A hissing sound filled the kitchen when she accidentally scalded her hand.
Westley swiftly rushed to her aid, grabbed her hand and ran it under cold water.
âWhy are you so careless? Are you in pain?â he reprimanded her as he held her hand under the tap.
It still had not registered to Gabrielleâs mind that Westley was there in the kitchen.
âMy hand is okay. When did you como in?â She shifted to see him.
Gabrielle was standing by the fautèt with Westley dangerously close behind her. He held her ever so gentlyx his armis, it made her a little uncomfortable. âI just got here. Y fingers are so red. Are you sure you te fine?â He turned the tap off and saw that her index finger was the shade of crimson.
âIâm alright, really. I donât think itâs going to blister. Oh no, the food is going to burn!â
âStay there. Iâll take care of it.â Westley left her to the side and did the rest of the cooking Gabrielle was standing next to him in awe. He looked dashing working his way around the kitchen.
âDonât stare at me. Is there anything else youâd like me to make?â Westley turned to look at Gabrielle only to see her gawking at him like a hawk. She just couldnât have enough of him. He used to hate it when women looked at him with an all-consuming.
