Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 574

Hearing Gabrielle’s voice, Lance was confused for a moment and then became certain that it was Gabrielle.

“Gabrielle, is everything alright? I can’t get hold of you. And it worries me,” Lance inquired worriedly.

“I’m in Westley’s company. I’m safe,” Gabrielle replied solemnly.

Lance clearly knew that Westley meant a lot of things to Gabrielle. Whenever he was with her, he would rest assured she was safe.

Ultimately, Westley himself took Gabrielle away from the forest. He wouldn’t do that himself.

In this regard, Westley had beaten him.

That meant that no matter what Lance did or thought, only one thing stood. He had lost.

Having lost to Westley was not such a bad thing.

“Gabrielle, I can tell that Westley loves you so much. He even had the guts to save you from the forest,” Lance said seriously.

No matter how much Lance was hesitant to admit it but the truth was Westley was deeply in love with Gabrielle. He had to make peace with the fact that this man would make her nothing less than happy.

Sometimes, letting things be the way they were would also make her happy.

He was glad to see the little girl he had cared for many years grow up and find love in others.

All he ever wished for was that Gabrielle would be happy and content. Whichever man would give her that, he actually never cared.

“I know that Westley adores me, and I adore him back as much. I feel like what happened was meant to bring us closer. I should actually thank you for taking us to the forest, both of us had the chance to express love for each other,” Gabrielle said truthfully. These things wouldn’t have happened. However, they happened because Lance had taken them to that place. “Gabrielle, it’s good as long as you’re fine. I was uneasy when I couldn’t reach you on phone. Bain…

Forget it. Let’s just bury the hatchet. ” Lance didn’t want to take a trip down memory lane to the forest. At least not with her. Whatever happened must have been blood-soaked and barbarous. He had witnessed Bain teach his men lessons. He shot them, and their blood and pieces of flesh were all over the place instantaneously. The scene was disturbing. It would have scared the living daylights out of Gabrielle if she had witnessed it. nd she would probably have to cope with the nightmares for the rest of her life. “Westley took me away from that dreadful place. Did you and Bryce get hurt by Bain’s men in the forest?” Gabrielle asked worriedly. Gabrielle was certain that Westley was concealing something from her. But how could she talk to him about it?

Was she ready to risk their relationship’s well-being? No. dditionally, Lance and Bain were friends, so he wouldn’t execute all of them. “No. Bain is my friend. He just despises anyone from the Campbell Family. He can’t touch anyone who’s not directly related to that family. Bryce and I are already back in Antawood from the forest. Nothing is wrong now,” Lance responded calmly. They got out of the forest alive and went back to Antawood, but true enough, both of them came out with injuries. Lance didn’t want to make Gabrielle worry about them, so he lied.

“Wel I, I’m happy both of you are okay, so I’m relieved.” Gabrielle had been concerned. Gabrielle hadn’t personally confirmed Westley’s claim that the two of them had left the forest safe and returned to ntawood. Consequently, she was concerned.

Having heard it from Lance, She could now be sure they were alright.

She finally enjoyed relief.

“We’re doing alright Gabrielle. Are you still in Bangkok? When will you return?” Lance asked, full of anxiety. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“We ought to be back these two days,” Gabrielle shortly answered.

“Gabrielle, maybe you should spend some more days in Bangkok. What do you think?” Lance did not want them back soon, but he coaxed them to go back later.

At that, Gabrielle was suddenly in a puzzle.

“Why?” Something was amiss. If nothing had transpired, why would Lance let them go back late?

“Gabrielle, Bryce is back to the Jones family, and the family is aware of his affair. They are antagonistic against you now. On top of that, the Collins family is after Nellie. If you come here, hell might rain,” Lance explained euphemistically.

Gabrielle understood when she heard this. Because of Bryce’s case, the Jones family must despise her immeasurably. She’d be in hot soup if she went back now.

Without a doubt, Wendy would certainly scold her for lack of thankfulness. She had not helped the Jones family, and yet she hurt Bryce badly. Would that not be enough justification for Wendy’s anger?

She could tell how much Wendy hated her without even thinkg much about it. She imagined that Wendy probably was waiting to tear her apart at the sight of her.

“I’ll talk to Westley about it. He’ll know what to do.” Gabrielle’s faith in Westley was undivided. He had married her. Hence, he could do anything he thought was right for her. A dditionally, Westley was from Antawood’s biggest family, and he was the CEO of the Morris Group. Nothing would stand in his way whenever he wished to do something.

If anyone oppressed her, Westley would revenge however he pleased. “Gabrielle, for your own good, please don’t show up here. I know Westley is influential. He can handle a lot single-handedly in Antawood, but now that’s nearly impossible. If the Jones and Collins family combine efforts, I can’t guarantee you…” “Lance, I know how much you care about me. I now know you are okay and it’s getting late. I’ll hang up now.” Gabrielle was about to call it a night.

“Gabrielle, I hope you can ponder over that. Westley is capable, but if there are a lot of things that he cannot handle, you might be a victim of circumstance.” Lance still pleaded with her. In his view, there was no way he’d let her get hurt or something. “I know. Let me end the call. Bye.” Gabrielle ended the call without hesitating. Then she got up and walked directly to the balcony to breathe some fresh air. Lance’s meaning was clear to Gabrielle. Maybe Antawood wasn’t any safer than Bangkok. It was disappointing. There she was, her whole being absorbed by the night, with a serious look on her face. Then she was held by a pair of powerful arms behind her. “My princess, is anything troubling you?”
