Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 100 Stay The Night In Half Moon Bay What she heard Westley Say got her angry. She paced up and down in her room as she bit her lips hard and tried her best not to react to what he said. She resisted the strong urge in her to go downstairs and confront him. What did he mean by saying that she was made of paper? He felt that she got bruises quite easily which made him think that she was just too frail. 1 âDoes he think that Iâm not scared of feeling pains all the time? Does he think that I derive joy in having injuries all over my body?â The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
He still didnât apologize for his useless statement. All of a sudden, he appeared behind her in the middle of the night scaring her out of her wits.
Since she had a long day, she was about to go upstairs to take a shower, but she felt thirsty at the same time. She was on her way to the kitchen to get some water to drink and accidentally heard everything he said about her.
At that moment, she knew that she had such a bad image in this manâs heart.
âHeâs such a bad guy, she thought with a sneer on her face.
âWhy did you come here unexpectedly. Mr. Morris? You are worried about your wife. isnât it?â Sophie asked with a smile on her face. âYou must have brought this cake just for her. She loves eating cakes. She will be very happy about it.â This woman was very smart. Coming at this time with a cake in his hand, it was obvious that he came here for a special purpose and it was to see Miss Jones.
To her, there was nothing like a false marriage and so she didnât believe that there was no love between the both of them.
Gabrielle lazily drank the water and thought of the pretty cake box he was carrying.
âDid he come with the sole aim of bringing me a cake at this late hour?â she thought to herself âDid he come here to apologize for leaving me alone these past few days?â
If this was the case, should she consider forgiving him?
âGabrielle, you are so cheap! A simple cake buys you off!â she nudged herself.
âSophie, take the cake. Alvin bought it for me and I donât like desserts. You can eat it with Gabrielle,â he said as he put the cake in Sophieâs hands forcefully and made her know how the cake came about.
He didnât buy it himself, lest Gabrielle should start overthinking the whole issue.
âMr. Morris, didnât you ask Alvin to specially buy it for Gabrielle?â Sophie stared at the cake box and didnât believe what Westley had said.
âSophie, I need you to understand me. I didnât come to see her. Besides, from what I can see, she is doing fine and doesnât need to be worried about at all. Donât you have money to hire workers to clean out the weeds for you? Why does Gabrielle have to weed and get hurt all over her body to have my attention?â he asked with a sarcastic look on his face. Westley was good at the irony, the cruelest kind.
It was exasperating, Gabrielle heard every word he had said. She had thought that he would praise her even if he didnât feel sorry for her for weeding the garden with blisters.
But then, he didnât praise her, but teased her as if she deserved the injuries that came with tilling the garden. This man was just a heartless human being She couldnât stand it anymore so she went upstairs to take a shower after drinking the water.
Sure enough, she couldnât expect too much from him. This man would only make people fall into depression with the way he talked about them.
The two outside didnât know that she had heard so much of what they discussed before going upstairs. Looking at the pink and beautiful box, Sophie thought that there must be a very delicious cake in it. She was happy, thinking that Gabrielle would also be very happy to see the cake after taking a shower.
âMr. Morris, Gabrielle volunteers to work these days and she isnât arrogant non difficult. She even works harder than me. Just so you know, she doesnât do it for you. She just wants to clean up the whole house and make it beautiful. She said that since she would keep living here, she wants the place to be as beautiful and as comfortable as possible.â She didnât want him to have any preconceptions against his wife. After all, she was a good girl âKeep living here?â His way of focusing on the key point was a bit unexpected.
âSo, she plans to stay here forever? With whose consent? Good wishes! Her plan has been thwarted. The Half Moon Bay was not bought for her,â he said coldly, Hearing Westleyâs angry words, Sophie wondered if she had said something wrong this time.
âMr. Morris, you misunderstood her. She is just...â
âWell, you donât have to explain for her. I know her much better than you and I know what kind of person she is. The daughter of the Jones cannot be simple and kind. Sophie, donât be deceived by her pretense. Iâm going back. Call Alvin if you need anything.â Westley left with mixed feelings.
However, when he walked out of the gate of the Villa, there was no car or any sign of Alvin.
âWhere did Alvin go with the car?â he asked himself in surprise.
Westley was so angry that he took out his phone and called Alvin.
âWhere are you? Come here right now!â he thundered as he vented all his anger on Alvin âMr. Morris, I thought you would stay the night in Half Moon Bay, so I left with the car.â
âYou thought? Did I ask you to leave? Why would you leave without asking me in the first place? Come back here in ten minutes, no, ten minutes is too much. I give you five minutes. If I donât see you in five minutes, you will never have to appear in front of me again. Consider yourself jobless!â After saying that, he hung up the phone. He strongly resisted the urge to drop the phone on the ground.
In less than a minute, the phone rang again. It was Alvin.
âYes? Whatâs the matter? Have you arrived?â he asked impatiently.
âActually, Mr. Morris, the car... The tires are flat. I need to go back and take another car to pick you up. Should I still come?â
Alvin asked in a low voice.
Hearing the unpleasant news, Westley was desperate. He wasnât in the mood to scold him. âNo need. You can go home,â he dismissed him.
âMr. Morris, can I still come back to the company tomorrow?â Alvin asked anxiously. He hoped he hadnât lost his job.
âWhat do you think?â Westley gave him a vague answer and didnât tell him directly. Then he hung up the phone.
Alvin couldnât come to pick him up. He considered if he should ask Neil to come to pick him up instead of spending the night here.
Feeling a little upset and resigning to his fate, he leaned against the wall and lit up a cigarette.
As he smoked, he heard a shout from inside the room.
âWow, Sophie, this cake is just so beautiful! I think itâs too beautiful to be eaten,â Gabrielle squealed with delight. She sounded very excited. It was so loud that even Westley. who was leaning against the wall outside the house could hear it.
He remembered the conversation between those children before, that the beautiful cake was magical. Even the most depressed people would fall in love with it.
Now, hearing her scream with joy, he believed that a cake had an unexplainable magic effect.
He threw the rest of the cigarette on the ground and stamped the fire out. Then he turned around and walked into the Villa.
He suddenly wanted to see the look on her face.
So he went straight inside.
âGetting a cake to eat isnât an everyday event. Sophie, shall we make a wish with candles? Itâs a waste not to make a wish with such a beautiful cake,â she proposed happily, staring at the beautiful pink cake without blinking.
