Lock You In My Heart Chapter 536
Lock You In My Heart
Gabrielle told Westley to take off his clothes. She had asked him to do so prior to this time. But it was to no avail.
A slight headache had been bothering Westley. Gabrielle seemed to be of the opinion that he must have hurt himself somehow.
So she was determined to take off his clothes there and then in order to ascertain what really happened to him.
However long he wanted to go on refusing to take off his clothes, she had decided to keep on being persistent. In due time, he would have little or no option but to become obedient. Then she would carry on with the needful.
âAlright, Iâll take it off.â He stopped being hesitant. Westley undressed himself and showed her his body.
He knew how stubborn his wife could be. She would go the extra mile to get whatever she wanted.
So it was a wild goose chase trying to go against her anymore.
She had been rather sorrowful for a day. So he didnât want to further aggravate the situation.
After checking his body both lovingly and dutifully, Gabrielle did not discover any new wound. Only some old ones were found.
She heaved a deep sigh of relief. But she could perceive the strong smell of blood on his clothes.
It was definitely not his blood. Therefore it must be someone elseâs. She feared that something serious and dangerous must have happened that night.
âGabrielle, I hope that you have seen it clearly. Whatâs the point in disbelieving my words? I am fine.â Westley was about to get dressed when Gabrielle stopped him.
âHold on! Donât put on your clothes now,â Gabrielle stopped him.
âYou must be kidding me, right? Gabrielle, Iâm not hurt. You have checked my body yourself. Why donât you want me to put on some clothes?â Westley looked at her awkwardly. He didnât know what to do.
âGabrielle doesnât have any plan of letting me walk around the house naked, does she?â He looked at his wife wondering what she had in mind. âIt doesnât matter. I am a man. But what is it that has aroused Gabrielleâs curiosity?â âI perceived the smell of blood on your clothes. Let us go upstairs for a proper check of your entire body. Maybe you have been injured.â Gabrielle pulled Westley. As soon as he heard what she said, Westley became a little worried. He had injured his leg but it was treated in the car when he came back. So there was really nothing serious. Notwithstanding, Gabrielle would be very worried if she saw it.
To make matters worse, he had long refused to admit the fact that he had any wound or cut. âGabrielle my darling, itâs already getting late. Can we just go to bed, please? You have been up all night waiting for me. Arenât you tired now? Let us catch some sleep.â Westley held her hand while he tactfully dragged her towards the bed. He was eager to go to bed with her. Something within her refused to be convinced. The more Gabrielle listened to him, the level of her suspicion increased. âThere must be something wrong with Westley and he doesnât want me to know about it.â
âWestley!â Gabrielle called out to him. âGabrielle, Iâm right here. Is everything okay?â Westley behaved like a child in the kindergarten. He stood very erect and listened attentively. âTake off your pants. I want to carry out a more thorough search.â
Gabrielle gazed at his face for a while before speaking directly. Westley noticed her ravishing charisma. He was intimidated by her domineering aura. She was more decisive than most women. He wanted to say something to Gabrielle but Westley stammered. âYou can either take it off by yourself or Iâll do it for you?â Gabrielle looked at him. She sneered while he struggled to make a choice. He tried to say something again. But Gabrielle interrupted his speech.
âWestley, are you still trying to deny the fact that you didnât get hurt? It bothers me a great deal when you refuse to tell the truth. I am your loving wife who cares about your well-being. Do I have to force you to open up?â Gabrielleâs domineering aura disappea red without a trace. Then, she looked worried for her husband.
âMy beloved Gabrielle, Iâm deeply sorry that I made you worry. You are my precious wife and I detest seeing you suffer like this.
Actually, a bullet grazed my leg, but Iâm okay now. Itâs only a minor scratch.â Westley held her tightly in his arms in an attempt to comfort her.
âDid you just call that a minor scratch? I do not enjoy talking to you in an aggressive tone. If you had mentioned it earlier, I wouldnât have forced you like I have just done. Please, let me see the wound.â Gabrielle broke free from his arms and paid rapt attention.
A remorseful Westley quickly surrendered. It displeased him that he made his wife experience so much pain as a result of the denial.
âDonât worry too much. Iâll roll up my trousers and let you see.â Westley let her sit down on the edge of the bed.
âYou do not have to do that anymore. Go and take a refreshing bath. There is a faint smell of blood all over you which makes me feel a little uncomfortable.â Gabrielle pushed him gently into the bathroom.
She then started to unfasten his belt. Westley was left with no other choice but let her be.
At last, she took off his pants. Westley noticed that blood had oozed out of the bandage around the wound on his left leg.
Gabrielle squatted down. She looked at it meticulously albeit with so much care. âWestley, please do not play any game of words with me now. Kindly tell me how deep and long the wound is! Else, I will rip off the bandage myself.â
Gabrielle was not making idle threats. Her word was her bond! She would waste no time in tearing off the bandage like she promised if Westley tried to be economical with the truth. âOkay, just calm down. Iâll tell you everything. It has not gotten to that extent. By the way, Remy has been called upon to wrap it up properly.â Westley tried to make light of the situation. But he was really afraid of her and didnât dare to show any dissatisfaction. He raised his wife up from the floor. âItâs only about half the length of a finger and two centimeters deep. I told you thereâs nothing to worry about.
Can you please excuse me, I have to take a shower?â Westley asked with a stern tone. âNo, that is not happening tonight. Iâll bathe you myself.â Gabrielle filled the bathtub with water. He was pleased by her demonstration of affection. The fact that she took the initiative to run some water for him was really soothing. Westley neither resisted nor spoke. He walked up to her and waited. Then she bathed him tenderly. It was very pleasurable to be pampered by someone. Although Westley was still injured, he felt that it was worth it. âSit in the bathtub,â Gabrielle said lovingly. She didnât allow his shin to get into the water. âWestley, what is the cause of the injury?â Gabrielle asked while she sat behind him scrubbing his back. âDarling, do you really want to get into the nitty-gritty of everything?
â Westley was not exactly sure about telling Gabrielle. âOf course, I want to! What do you think?â Gabrielle replied while she pinched his back. âThey came after Victor,â Westley said to her. When the other members of the Sanderson Family arrived, they found out that the Campbell Family had taken away Victor. They saw it as an opportunity to break in by force and kill him. In this way, his death could be successfully pinned on the Campbell Family.
They were so naive! It was extremely difficult for anyone to kill a person in the territory of the Campbell Family in Bangkok.
Westley went to save Victor. He had planned to strike a deal with the Sanderson Family. But the negotiation failed! Those scheming villains began to shoot at him. The scene became quite chaotic. Westley had a minor cut. But the people from the Sanderson Family lost their lives. âItâs my fault. I shouldnât have saved Victor in the first place.â Gabrielle felt that she had caused a huge problem for both Westley and the Campbell Family.
