Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 320 Extremely Uncomfortable After disconnecting the call, Gabrielle hurriedly took the elevator downstairs. As soon as she walked out of the hotel, she saw an empty taxi. She hailed it and asked the driver to take her to Jones mansion.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of the gate of the Jones mansion. Gabrielle paid the fare and went in carrying her bag Gabrielle didnât know why the huge Jones mansion made her feel lifeless and serious. It used to be lively.
But she didnât have time to think too much. She carried her bag and walked straight into the room. There she saw Wendy sitting on the sofa. She looked tired and uncomfortable, completely different from the radiant rich lady-like elegance that she always carried earlier.
Seeing Wendy in that state, Gabrielle knew something had happened.
âHi Mom! Iâm back.â Gabrielle hurried over towards Wendy.
âGabrielle! Finally, youâre back home.â As soon as Wendy saw Gabrielle, she stood up excitedly. She moved closer and held Gabrielleâs hand. Even her völce carried in tone of worry and anxiety.
Gabrielle was worried now. She was afraid if something serious had happened to Bryce. Otherwise, Wendy wouldnât be in such a state.
âMom, calm down. Tell me what happened. Why do you look so worried?â Gabrielle led Wendy back to the sofa. She mnade her sit and tried to comfort her.
âGabrielle. I canât calm down now.â Wendy looked so distraught and worried. She wasnât able to control her anxiety at âMom, tell me what happened to Bryce?â Gabrielle did not want to beat around the bush now. She directly asked Wendy about Bryceâs condition One look at Wendy and it was clear that something had happened to Bryce and it was not a small matter. If it was trivial, Wendy would not be in such a desolate condition.
Lance had vald Hiyce had disappeared. Perhaps he was really missing, and not huiding. Was it an accident, or was he kidnapped? It was completely unclear and chaotic for her to understand.
âGabrielle. I want to tell you something. I kitow you may not be able to forgive me. But please donât hate me for it.â Wendyâs voice shook as she spoke. She seemed to have lost all her confidence.
Wendy looked terribly sad and dejected, and seemed to be in a mentally unstable state too âMom, just tell me what happened. I wonât blame you.â Gabrielle was right when she had guessed that something was wrong here.
âGabrielle, when Bryce eloped with Nellie, they went to Switzerland. I have been in touch with Bryce all this time, but we only contacted in private. After all, he is my son. Itâs normal for me to WOITY about him.â As she kept speaking. Wendy seemed to become weaker and more dejected. 1 Gabrielleâs face darkened. Well. Bryce was Wendyâs son, while she was just a girl adapted from the orphanage by the Janes family She realized that this was the essential difference between biological ind adopted children. It was a fact that in Wendyâs heart, she didnât have a place. Wendy had never treated her AS | daughter, not even for a day. She was just Eryceâs companion and a tool for the Tones family.
All along she had an idea about Wendyâs thoughts and feelings. Still, Gabrielle felt sad when she heard it from Wendyâs mouth Gabrielle had been raised by the Jones family for twenty years. As a sensible and mature woman, she was always zrateful to the Jones family for bringing her up.
âWell mom, what do you want from me now?â Gabrielle said in a calm and Composed manner.
It broke her heart. She felt sad, but she pretended to be fine.
âGabrielle. I know I have always treated you unfairly. You always asked us to look Tor Bryce and Nellie. And behind everyoneâs back, I was secretly contacting Bryce. I just want to know if heâs time now. Gabrielle. if you want to Wame me. VO ahead and blame me. I know itâs all my fault. Iâm so sorry!â Srein Gabrielleâs face tum darker and darker, Wendy knew that she had really failed her and lost her trust.
However, it was not what was bothering Wendy. She didnât think that she had done anything wrong to Gabrielle.
Wendy thought Gabrielle should feel grateful that she got the chance to be raised up by the Jones family. She couldnât just spend twenty years taking care of her for nothing, Wendy didnât fec). guilty about anything, especially not about making her many Westley.
Moreover, SO many women were desperate to many Westley. Gabrielle should be grateful that she had the chance to marry him.
âMom, you didnât do anything wrong to me. Iâm an adopted daughter of the Jones family. The Jones family has raised me Gabrielle. I know I have always treated you unfairly. You always asked us to look For Bryce and Nellie. And behind everyoneâs back. I was secretly contacting Bryce. I just want to know if heâs fine now. Gabrielle. if you want to wame mu. O ahead and blame me. I know itâs all my fault. Iâm so sorry!â Seeing Gabrielleâs face turn dariter and darker, Wendy know that she had really failed her and lost her trust.

Wendy thought Gabrielle should feel grateful that she got the chance to be raised up by the Jones family. She couldnât just spend twenty years taking care of her for nothing, Wendy didnât feel guilty about anything, especially not about making her many Westley.
Morcover. So many women were desperate to many Westley. Gabrielle should be grateful that she had the chance to marry him.
âMom, you didnât do anything wrong to me. Iâm an adopted daughter of the Jones family. The Jones family has raised me for twenty years. I cannot give you much hack in return, but I will try to help you in every possible way. So, tell me what you want me to do. I wonât complain on refuse.â Gabrielle had cleared up her mind and put forward her decision. 4 Being an adopted daughter, they had taken care of her. It was good enough that the lones family didnât sell her to an old man to become his second wife.
Gabrielle didnât dare to think about such a life. If she hadnât married Westley: Wendy would have got her married to a. bad, old man. All of it would be in the interest of the Jones family.
âReally, Gabrielle? Donât you blame me? In fact, I know that you should blame me for all this mess.â
Wendy was aware that Gabrielle actually hield her responsible for a lot of things.
After all, it was natural for Gabrielle to blame her. All that Wendy had done to her, though she was a mere adopted daughter.
âMom, letâs talk about Bryce.â
Gabrielle didnât want to hear Wendy trying to apologize or talking about it anymore She felt that all of it was meaningless Gabrielleâs words pulled Wendyâs mind back to her main concern and VOITY about her son.
âGabrielle. I know that they left Switzerland and went to Paris. They even went to Thailand. I was able to contact him after they reached Thailand. The last tirme I was able to contact him was last month. I couldnât reach out to him after that. It has been half a month. Gabrielle, Iâm worried about your brother. Itâs just not right.â
Wendyâs tone showed how anxious and worried she was. Clearly she really had no choice but to ask Gabrielle for help. She was completely at a loss.
âWhy didnât you tell me earlier, Mom?â After hearing all that Gabrielle felt even worse.
She was upset to know that Wendy had been in touch with Bryce from the very beginning. It was all a pretense that they sent people to search for them, but Couldnât find them. All this had been date because they just wanted to lool Now something bad might have happened to Bryce, Wendy had no choice but to call her for help. Otherwise, she would never have told her the truth.
âGabrielle, at first, I thought there must be some work or something that was keeping him busy. Itâs been a long time since last contacted them. Iâm afraid that something might have happened to them. Gabrielle, what should I do now? Iâve been unable to contact them. Iâve sent people to look for them, but it was of no use. I came to you because I had no choice. I know I should be ashamed to come to you for help. But I need to ask Westley for help. Gabrielle, I beg you! Go back and ask Westley to send someone to look for Bryce. Westley will be able to find him. He can do it because he is so capable.â
Wendy held Gabrielleâs hand and spoke earnestly. All her hopes were pinned on Gabrielle and Westley.
Gabrielle was baffled. She had mixed feelings and didnât know what to say. It MICE her that she was the One who wa cheated and used from the lining to the end And now Wendy Gme to her, asking for her help when somethine unexpected ind bad had happened. She WAS feally uncomfortable to see how caught up she was in this web.
âMom, are you really going to ask Westley to find Bryce? I hope you remember what he had said. He warned. us that if he intervened in looking for Bryce, he would bring back his coipse, not a Living Prson. He always have you the chance to find Bryce back. What have you done?â Gabrielle felt extremely distressed. She could feel the sharp stabbing pain in her chest and she could hardly breathe
