Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 140 The One Who Controls The Morris Group Gabrielle was shocked when she learned that Westley actually went up the mountain carrying her bag on his back. Considering how heavy it was, she thought that he would have disposed of it the earliest he could.
But he didnât. She couldnât believe it.
âWhatâs wrong. Gabrielle?â Miley guffawed as soon as she spotted Gabrielle looking all dazed and confused.
She didnât need to be told anything-she already knew what was going on inside the young ladyâs head.
Westley had never been good at expressing himself and communicating his feelings, and so a lot of people thought he was cold and aloof. In reality. however, he cared about others very much.
He was also very transparent about it.
If he cared about someone, he would 17:37 absolutely do everything in his power for that person to feel comfortable and looked after. If he didnât, nothing could force him to change his mind and do things he didnât want to do.
Those were the things that Miley knew were true about Westley.
Because if they werenât, she wouldnât even mention Gabrielleâs bag to him. She knew that convincing him to take someone elseâs belongings was next to impossible.
âIâm okay, Grandma. I just want to say that I can carry my own things.â Gabrielle flashed Miley a wide and Sincere smile.
Miley smiled back as she took Gabrielleâs hand in hers.
As soon as the two started walking, a voice behind them stopped them in their tracks.
âGabrielle!â
Gabrielle knew who the voice was from right away-Mia. She quickly turned around and, as expected, saw Mia waving at her. Walking beside her was her brother Micheal, who looked somehow unenthused about being outside. The two seemed to be on their way up the mountain as well Gabrielle waved back at her friend enthusiastically, ecstatic to see a familiar face on the trail âMia, Mr. Robinson! You two are hiking as well? What a coincidence!â she lively greeted.
Mia ran to Gabrielleâs side at once and held her arm. As she did, she noticed a smiling Miley watching them silently.
âGrandma Miley!â Mia exclaimed. She gently took the old ladyâs hands and held them tenderly. âItâs so nice to finally meet you!
My name is Mia, Mia Robinson. I didnât know you knew Gabrielle!â
Basing on the way the two interacted, Miley concluded that they must be close friends.
âYou seem like a good friend of my Gabrielle,â Miley remarked with a grin on her face âThatâs right, Grandma! Gabrielle is my EFF. Sheâs almost a sister to me!â Mia wrapped her arms around Gabrielle and smiled contentedly.
She was about to tell Miley the story of how they met when she noticed Gabrielleâs meaningful stare. A chuckle left her lips and she promptly shut her mouth The whole thing wasnât a story worth telling, anyway.
âWell, thatâs very lovely. isnât it? Gabrielle has a good friend, and sheâs from the Robinson family,â Miley liked a straightforward girl like Mia so much.
âMadame, Iâm Micheal Robinson.â Though not sounding as eager as Mia, Micheal greeted the elderly lady with utmost reverence and respect.
âI know you,â Miley replied, still smiling, âIâve heard a lot of good things about you. The Robinson family must be so proud to have someone like you.â Much like Westley, Micheal was very different from his peers. He looked gentle, quiet, and wise something you didnât see in The sincere compliment made Michealâs cheeks glow with a subtle shade of pink. He took a deep breath to compose himself and said, âThank you for your kind words. Madame. But Iâm not as good as you said, especially when comparing with Mr. Morris.â
Micheal wasnât trying to flatter Westley. He was just telling the truth.
Although the two notable young men didnât have any issue with one another, they were not friends either. The last time they interacted when Mia jumped into a river-tension between then began to arise.
âIâm just curious, Grandma Miley. Are you related to Gabrielle? If not, what is your relationship?â There was no hint of hesitation in Miaâs voice when she asked this question.
Gabrielle turned to look at Miley. uneasiness apparent on her face. Then, her eyes darted to Westley, who was walking ahead of them. She was hoping that he didnât hear anything Mia said and that he wouldnât turn around. Otherwise, Mia would know exactly what was up between her and Westley..
âNo, âGabrielle just thought to herself, slowly stiffening up.
âMia, werenât you taught not to stick your nose up other peopleâs business? Where are your manners?!â Since Micheal knew what was going on between Gabrielle and Westley, he was able to deduce what relationship Grandma Miley and Gabrielle had.
Miley was Westleyâs grandmother, which meant that she, was Gabrielleâs grandmother-in-law.
âI was just curious...â Mia protested weakly, pouting slightly to show that she meant no harm in her question.
She wasnât really trying to gossip about peopleâs private lives. She was just really curious.
After all, she and Gabrielle were good friends.
âMadame, Iâm so sorry. My sister has been terribly spoiled and have very little knowledge about what is appropriate to say at which time. Please excuse her brash attitude.â Micheal looked 50 embarrassed as he apologized for her sisterâs actions.
âMicheal, what are you saying? Itâs fine. I believe Mia didnât want to offend; she was just really curious,â Miley replied, smiling empathetically. âWell, to answer your question, I am Gabrielleâs grandmother-in-law.â
âGrandmother-in-law?â Miaâs eyes widened as she realized what that meant. She turned to look at Gabrielle. who was now looking away.
âNo way!
Does that mean what I think it means?
If Grandma Miley is Gabrielleâs grandmother-in-law, then she must have married someone from the Morris family!
âOh my god, Gabrielle! Who from the Morris family did you marry?â Mia grabbed Gabrielleâs hand and asked directly She just couldnât wrap her head around it. The Morris family only had two young Chapje â The One Who Caning The Moris GOLD heirs: One was Wilson, but he had already married the daughter of a gang leader years ago. The other was Westley, the current CEO of the Morris Group. But rumors had it that he was already engaged to someone from the Collins family.
But then, it wasnât really impossible for the Moms family to have illegitimate heirs. âMaybe she married someone from that end of the family tree?â Mia thought, her eyebrows furrowed.
What was impossible was these illegitimate families having a good relationship with Miley. âYeah, thatâs not going to happen,â she said inwardly.
In a span of a few seconds, thousands upon thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind.
âGabrielle and I are married.â Westley had already turned back and walked up to them.
Mia took one look at Westley and immediately recognized who he was.
âDamn it! Gabrielle married such an excellent man! The CEO of the Morris Group? No wonder she didnât marry my brother, even if he, too, is an incredible man!
Compared to Westley, one could say that Micheal was less impressive. Westley came from the most powerful family in Antawood, and was now the head of the Morris Group. He was head and shoulders above everyone else.
But what happened to his engagement with that girl from the Collins family? Did they break up? Westley moved on so Although Mia didnât know much about Nellie, she didnât like her at all. That was why she really didnât feel bad for her.
Besides, hearing that Gabrielle scored someone like Westley was too amazing for her to feel bad for someone she couldnât care less about.
âReally? Westley Morris? Youâre married to Westley Morris?â Mia asked Gabrielle again with so much awe in her eyes.
Gabrielle looked at Westley nervously. She didnât know how to answer Miaâs question
