Lock You In My Heart Chapter 615
Lock You In My Heart
Tobias transferred 888888 dollars to her account right away, which made her uncomfortable. Gabrielle could barely breathe.
She knew he had hurriedly sent the money as compensation.
She was always grateful to the Jones family for their kindness and raising her for twenty years and never expected compensation.
âGabrielle, are you done? Your pies are cold.â When Westley came over, he saw her standing by the window, staring blankly at the scenery in the yard. The phone in her hand was locked.
âYes, Iâm done. Letâs go and have the pies. Pork and mushroom fillings are delicious,â Gabrielle said, pretending to be relaxed.
âWhat happened?â Westley asked concernedly.
âNothing. The annual family reunion is a happy event, so itâs all good.â Gabrielle forced a smile. She didnât want Westley to worry about her.
âSince it is good news, can you share it with me, Mrs. Morris?â Westley wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer.
Gabrielle burst out laughing. âOf course, I will share it with you. But you have to be prepared, Mr. Morris. Donât be irritated later.
After all, whatâs good for me might not necessarily be a good thing for you.â
âWhat do you mean?â Westley narrowed his eyes and studied her face.
âLook at this. I just received a lot of red envelopes.â Gabrielle showed him the phone.
Westley saw her messages. Many people had sent her red envelopes. Lance, Austin, Jason, Micheal, and Victor were a few among the many men who sent her red envelopes. He couldnât bear it.
âWhy are these men giving my wife such big red envelopes? God, itâs annoying.â
You accepted them all?â Westley frowned. He was unhappy that she had accepted all the envelopes. âWell, you must accept all the red envelopes. Otherwise, itâs bad luck. I have told you not to see it. But you insisted on checking it. Thatâs why you are upset. Am I right?â Seeing the anger and frustration on his face, Gabrielle burst out laughing. Westley was a possessive husband. Gabrielle loved it when he got jealous. She was honest to all those people, and everyone who had sent the red envelopes was her friend. She had no choice but to accept it. Otherwise, it would only complicate things. She could invite them to dinner and pay back their kindness in some other way in the future.
âWhy do you have to accept the red envelopes from those men? I can give you whatever you want.â Westley felt wronged. He wanted to block and delete the number of those men in Gabrielleâs contact list. However, he was a rational and loving husband.
He would never do such a thing. He had to control his emotions and not reveal his jealousy in front of Gabrielle. âThe things you give me are from our money, and these are gifts. They are all friends, so I accepted the red envelopes.
Come on, Westley. Do you think something is going on between them and me?â Gabrielle asked, cocking her head. Westley smiled and gently rubbed her hair. âOf course, I trust you. I know nothing will ever happen between you and them. But I donât want my wife to accept the red envelopes other men send you.â âI understand what you are thinking. I consider those red envelopes as auspicious wishes for the coming year. I will find a ay to return the money to them. If they donât want it, we will call them over and buy lunch or dinner.â Gabrielle had her own plan. She wasnât someone who would make profits this way.
Besides, Westley was a wealthy man. She had enough money to buy whatever she wanted. She didnât want monetary benefits from other men. âMy wife is adorable.â Westley laughed, shaking his head. âBut weâd better go to the Jones family fo r the regular visit.â Gabrielle stopped chuckling and looked at him intently. âYou want to meet them now?â Westley asked in a low voice. He remembered that Gabrielle had told him not to go back to the Jones family for the visit. She had asked him to arrange for someone to send the gifts to them. Now that she wanted to visit them, he guessed the phone call she answered just now must have been from someone in the Jones family.
âWell, you are the new son-in-law of the Jones family, after all. This is the first family reunion after our wedding. You have to visit them this year. As for the other festivals, letâs discuss them later. Only time will answer that,â Gabrielle said indifferently.
Although she sounded relaxed, her expression looked tense.
âThatâs right. The new son-in-law should visit his in-laws for the first family reunion. Mrs. Morris, what do you think I should get for my in-laws?â Westley playfully pinched her nose.
âYour father-in-law gave me more than eight hundred thousand dollars as a red envelope. Isnât that awesome? So think of something suitable. Donât get something lower than that.â Gabrielle knew it was meaningless to return the money directly, so she wanted to make it more practical. Perhaps Tobias also felt the same.
Hearing that, Westley burst out laughing. âI see. I will ask Alvin to make a contract. It will be more sincere to bring the contract while visiting them.â
Gabrielle stood on tiptoe and kissed him. She couldnât help but smile at his thoughtfulness. âMr. Morris, you donât have to chart the perfect contract. You just need to show them a little kindness. Thatâs enough.â
âIt proves that my wife loves me more than anyone else in the world.â Westley smiled.
âLetâs go and have the pies, Mr. Morris.â
After eating the pies, Rose wheeled Doctor Maniac out of the house. Westley asked Sophie to take care of Star and took Gabrielle out.
Seeing the mysterious look on his face, Gabrielle asked, âWestley, where are you taking me?â Sitting in the passenger seat, Gabrielle looked out of the window at the quiet street and the occasional fireworks exploding in the sky. She had no idea what his plans were and where he was taking her.
It was already eleven oâclock. He was taking her out when her body was begging her to sleep. It was too exhausting. âYouâll know in a while.â Westley kept driving. Soon, they got on the expressway. Gabrielle suddenly realized the route led them to the beach.
âWestley, are you taking me to the beach?â Gabrielle squealed in surprise. âYou are smart, Gabrielle. I canât hide anything from you, can I? Yes, Iâm taking you to the beach.â Westley smiled. Gabrielle was confused.
âWhy are we going to the beach now?â âYouâll know when we get there.â Westley didnât want to reveal the mystery yet. Gabrielle stopped questioning him. She decided to wait and see what he had planned for her. Half an hour later, the car got off the expressway and entered a neighborhood. An enormous villa came to view. It was built near the beach; several villas were lined up with ample distance between one another. The distance between the two buildings was a few hundred meters. Each villa was surrounded by a vast expanse of land. The front yard connected the villa with the beach. It looked extravagant. The car stopped in the yard of a villa. Westley got out of the car and opened the door. âMrs. Morris, please come out.â Westley opened the door for her like a gentleman. âWestley, what are we doing here?â Gabrielle took his hand and got out of the car. The vast expanse of beach before her brought a smile to her face.
