Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 107 Win Over Westleyâs Heart Gabrielle couldnât sleep too well last night. She always had trouble sleeping at nights that were accompanied by awful nightmares. Only when she felt warm arms to hold on to, did she finally fall sleep.
The sunlight was dancing all over the room when she woke up. It cheered her up to begin the day.
Gabrielle stretched her body in the warmth of the room. She intended to get out of the bed, when a thought struck her. She distinctly remembered sleeping on the sofa. Sleeping in the living room was a better option than to share the same room upstairs with Westley. So how did she end up sleeping in this room then? Did Westley do that?
Were they together last night? In the same bed?
At the thought of this, Gabrielleâs face tumed red all of a sudden. But there was no sign of Westley in the room now. Perhaps he didnât sleep in the room last night. After all, he really hated her She quickly freshened up and went downstairs. Sophie was arranging breakfast when she saw Gabrielle walk down the stairs, giving her a joyous look. âGood morning, Gabrielle.â
âGood morning, Sophie. Sophie kept staring at Gabrielle, and that was freaking her out a bit.
âSophie, whatâs the matter? Is there something on my face?â Gabrielle hesitantly asked.
âThere is nothing on your face, Gabrielle. It is pretty as always. Did you sleep well last night?â
Sophie couldnât give up that joyous look from her face. Her impression was that Westley carried Gabrielle back to the room, which meant that the two must have spent the night together.
âI believe I slept well. By the way, Sophie, where did Westley sleep last night? Have you seen him?â Gabrielle inquired.
Sophie wasnât smiling anymore. All of a sudden, she gave Gabrielle a puzzled look. âGabrielle, donât you have any memory of Westley carrying you back into the room last Gabrielle shook her head while taking a bite of the deep fried dough stick. âActually, I donât remember anything. All I know is that I was sleeping on the sofa, and then woke up in the room. I didnât see Westley anywhere.â
Sophie felt downhearted after hearing that from Gabrielle. Nothing had happened between the two like how she imagined it would âWhatâs wrong. Sophie?â All that joy on Sophieâs face disappeared, and was replaced by a sullen look.
âThatâs all right. Mr. Morris had left before I got up.â Sophie answered.
âOh okay,â uttered Gabrielle. She was right about Westley hating her. He probably left: early because he couldnât be in the same room with her.
âGabrielle, it looks like Mr. Morris cares about you.â Sophie continued talking about Westley, The conversation didnât excite Gabrielle at all. She didnât even bother to think about it. She just accepted it and quickly had her breakfast. She then left to her room to call Wendy.
âGabrielle, dear, whatâs up?â Wendy sounded calm and cheerful There was still no news about Bryceâs whereabouts. How could she be so relaxed?
âMom, did you get any information on where my brother might be?â Gabrielle straightaway Unsurprisingly. Wendyâs tone changed. âGabrielle, why are you making a haste? Your father has already hired someone to go after Bryce. It doesnât happen overnight; all this takes time. Itâs not an easy task to find your brother, who, by the way, could be anywhere. So, be patient.â
on Wendyâs words were sharp-edged Gabrielle.
âMom, Westley doesnât give me much time.
âSo what? You are now legally Westleyâs wife. Thereâs nothing that both of you can do about it. Why canât you just seize this lucky chance and try to win him over? If that happens, then everything will be alright. You, your brother, and the Jones family.
Being Mrs. Morris would only benefit you for the rest of your life.â Wendyâs intentions were clear.
Gabrielle was taken aback by her motherâs words. All she cared about was to convince her daughter to seduce the CEO of Morris Group âWhat kind of a man does Wendy think Westley is? Doesnât she know heâs not an easy person?â Did Wendy forget how she got Westley marry Gabrielle?
How could she forget drugging Westley last time? He was so infuriated that he could have destroyed the whole Jones family.
Wasnât that a painful lesson already?
Gabrielle couldnât believe that her mother was hooked on this idea. If Westley got angry for real, he could kick the whole Jones family out of Antawood.
âMom, what kind of a man do you think Westley is? Didnât you see him clearly last time? He warned us already about the stock price of Jones Group going down. If we provoke him, there is no way the Jones Group can survive.â Gabrielle didnât mean to frighten her mother. But Westleyâs warnings shouldnât be taken so lightly.
âWhich is why Iâm telling you to win his heart! Itâs not an impossible task. After all, he is a young man. And Gabrielle, you are so beautiful. For how long can you both resist each other?â Wendy was the kind of woman who only cared about the future benefits.
The lessons of the past didnât bother her at all.
âMom, just listen to me. If father cut off my brotherâs finances, he will be forced to come back on his own.â Gabrielle didnât call her mother to discuss about Westley, Wendy talking about how to make Westley fall in love didnât interest her at all.
All she cared about wag Bryceâs return that could solve the whole problem. Once Bryce and Nellie were back, she could leave Weiley.
âHow could you be so unkind, Gabrielle? You want to your brother to suffer like that? If we cut him off financially he wonât be able to Survive outside. Is this your own idea or did, someone put this heartless thought into your head?â Wendyâs tone was harsh.
Gabrielle felt dejected. Wendy al vays had a way of reminding Gabrielle that she was her adopted daughter, and Bryce her biological Consequently, Bryce always got away with his actions, and no one could point a finger at him. 2 *Mom, you have to understand. If you delay it any longer, Westley wouldnât think twice to find Bryce himself. And that would only mess things up more.â Gabrielleâs words were sharp and clear. All she wanted was to have a good chat with Wendy. But Wendy Was making that impossible for her. All she wants was for Gabrielle to win over Westley. Bryceâs actions didnât bother her at all.
âGabrielle, whatâs with the tone? Is that how you speak to your mother?â Wendy was enraged. i
