Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 218 Heartbreak Neither of them spoke. The air seemed to be frozen. There was only the sound of breathing, and the aroma of coffee, along with the musky smell of the room. The mixture of scents made settled heavily on Gabrielleâs lungs.
âGabrielle, you said it yourself. if he didnât do it, you know whatâs going to happen, donât you?â Clutching her phone, Estelle sneered at her hostage. âThere are two men inside, and four or five more waiting outside, that would be dreadful, for sure!â
Estelleâs gaze was terrifying.
But Gabrielle had no choice but to stay calm. âJust call him. I mean what I said.â
Estelle dialed the number, but no one picked up. She tried again, but to no avail âDid you guys break up?â Gabrielle couldnât help asking Estelleâs eye twitched in annoyance.
âUgh, shut up! Weâre together, duh Heâs just busy right now. Forget it; I wonât ask him. I know he wonât do anything to hurt me.
But you... Iâll see that you get a taste of humiliation today.â
âEstelle, let me go. Then we will have opportunity to talk about the business of the Johnson Group. If you do this, youâll be destroying the Johnson family. Do you understand what I mean?â Gabrielle struggled to sit up. The ragged clothes could cover her a little bit. Although the two masked men next to her couldnât see her, she still felt humiliated âDestroyed by me? How dare you! If it werenât you, these things wouldnât have happened. Our Johnson Group was fine, but someone blocked our project. How dare you say that you didnât ask Westley to do it bekend my back? Iâm very curious. Is Westley doing you favors now? No one in Antawood could ever get close to him. How did you hook him up? You must be very good in bed, huh, Gabrielle?â Estelle snapped, and Gabrielle couldnât believe what she was hearing.
âBirds of a feather flock together. So your and knocking Estelle on her belly. The latter squatted in pain. âGabrielle, what the fuck?! Do you have a death wish?!â Estelle stood up and raised the scissors, threatening to stab Gabrielle.
Out of nowhere, a man gripped Estelleâs wrist, stopping her vicious act.
âYouâre making a huge mistake.â Westley threw Estelle aside. He hurriedly held Gabrielle in his arms. âIâm here. Sorry Iâm late.â
Westley took off his coat with one hand and covered her tightly.
yo âWestley, I knew youâd come. If not. Iâd probably...â
âDonât say anything.â Westley lifted her up and glared daggers at Estelle who was squatting on the ground, âI already gave you a warning, Estelle. The Johnson family will bear the crushing weight of your sins. You better hide and live well, instead of biting people like a mad dog. Donât blame me for whatâs to come for you.â There was nothing but coldness in Westleyâs sharp eyes.
âWestley, what is she to you?â Looking at Westley in disbelief, Estelle thought, âTo save her twice... why would he go so far?â
âYou donât deserve to know!
Alvin clean up the rest.â
Then Westley left with Gabrielle in his arms. Gabrielle curled up in his hold, trembling uncontrollably.
âGabrielle.â Westley settled Gabrielle in the car, but she didnât have any reaction. She was dull. Westley didnât say much, he just held her tightly in his arms.
âItâs okay now, Gabrielle.â Westley gently stroked her hair and asked the bodyguard to drive back to Calf Moon Bay.
âGabrielle, there is nothing to be afraid now.
Westley wasnât one to comfort people, but he tried to make Gabrielle feel better.
Still in shock from the turn of events, she didnât say anything, her eyes full of horror and fear.
If he were late by only a fraction of a second, the scissors would have pierced Gabrielleâs chest.
The thought made Westley feel terrible. He didnât want to think about it anymore. At a distance, Sophie was horrified to see Gabrielle in tattered clothes.
âMr. Morris, what happened to Miss Jones? How did she end up like this?â Tears welled up in Sophieâs eyes. How could Miss Jones get hurt all the time? Her wounds just healed, but now she got injured again. What a sin!
someoler âSophie, Iâll take her back to her FOCI to clean up. You make some soothing tea and bring it to me. Ask Remy to wait for me in the living room.â Westley carried his wife upstairs.
He had contacted Remy on the way back, so he should be here soon.
âI see. Iâll make soothing tea right away.â Without any delay, Sophie went back to the kitchen to boil water. She felt terrible and hoped that Miss Jones would be fine.
Westley carried her into the bathroom and let her sit on the stool, but Gabrielle clung his shirt tightly and didnât want to let go âGabrielle, itâs fine. Let me run bath for you.â Westley looked at her tenderly.
