Maybe he purposely came to scare het. Maybe he wanted to see how she would Teact. If that was his intention, then he casily succeeded. Gabrielle still couldnât bake off the raw fear she felt carlier.

When she glanced at Westley and saw him staring at her, she chewed on her Lips and busied herself with her drink, She was 30 scared about Lolita finding out their âsecret.â Gabrielle was breathing quickly, and she could feel a headache coming on.
âGabrielle, are you really okay? You donât look so great.â Lolita asked her uneasily. She became more concerned when she saw Gabrielle stiffen at the sound of her voice.
âIâm fine, but we have to leave after finishing our orders. I have to go back and find Jason. Meanwhile, you should go home and have a rest. Donât eat too much pepper in the future because it will hurt your stomach,â Gabrielle reminded Lalit. She couldnât help it even if the was still a bundle of nerve. Gabrielle feared Lolitaâs eating habits might take toll on her someday Gabrielle, donât worry. Iâll be fine. I Hraw my body wel. Nothing will happen to te, Lolita assured her with a smile.
