Lock You In My Heart Chapter 373
Lock You In My Heart
Bonnieâs trick always worked on Miley, mostly because the latter had always been fond of her.
Although Bonnie was born into a wealthy family, she was always modest and gentle â especially in front of Miley.
That was the reason why she didnât disagree when Wilson decided to manage the Campbellâs business after they got married in Italy.
After all, Bonnie and Wilson were crazy about each other, and Bonnie respected the elders of the Morris family.
The couple would visit them several times a year, which was enough for Miley.
âYou always know the right thing to say to please me,â Millie playfully complained and patted Bonnieâs hand.
âGreat-grandma, look. This is the gift little mommy bought for me. Itâs my favorite Barbie dolls! Do you see the princess dress she bought for me? Itâs so beautiful. I love it.â Tammy showed the dolls to Miley, bouncing on the spot.
Miley looked at the dolls and beamed with joy at how adorable the little one was. She leaned forward and gently stroked Tammyâs head. âIt seems like Gabrielle really likes you.â
âYes, I like her, too.â Tammy glanced at Gabrielle and smiled.
âGrandma.â Gabrielle and Westley walked up to Miley.
âGabrielle, have you been eating properly? God, look at you! You have lost too much weight!â Mileyâs brows furrowed as she looked at Gabrielle up and down.
Gabrielle looked at herself and smiled. âNo, grandma. Iâve actually gained weight lately.â
âNonsense! Do you think Iâm blind? I donât see an ounce of fat in your body. Itâs obvious you have lost weight. Have you been too busy, or is it because Westley hasnât been taking good care of you? If he is not looking all your favorite dishes every day and make sure you gain weight soon. Before you know it, you will become a plump Gabrielle smiled. She didnât want to be a plump girl.
âGrandma, Iâm fine, really. Iâve been eating healthy, nutritious food every day. I havenât lost weight,â she explained.
âGrandma, Gabrielle isnât lying. She doesnât put on weight easily.â Westley tried helping her, but it didnât seem to work.
âI am sure she has lost some weight. Are you not taking good care of her?â Miley thought it was all Westleyâs fault.
âYou are right, taking proper care of her. I should have made her eat more.â Westley shook his head.
âI knew it. Itâs all because of you. If you canât take good care of Gabrielle, she can move and live with me,ââ remarked Miley.
âGrandma, Iâm fine. I donât have to move in here,â Gabrielle refused right away.
Miley was only kidding. She didnât want her to move into their house. After all, how would she have a great-grandchild know. I obviously donât want you two to be apart. But I wa nt to know why you have to move to Half Moon Bay? Why canât you just stay at Vineyard Villa?â Miley asked.
Westley had been living in the Vineyard Villa for a long time, and Neil was in charge of the place.
Now, Gabrielle and Westley moved to Half Moon Bay, which was just an old villa that had been vacant for five years without any furniture or decorations. They had to buy everything from scratch.
Besides, Westley and Helena had planned to move there first. Although that never happened, Miley didnât think it was a good place for Westley and Gabrielle to start their life together.
It didnât feel right for Gabrielle to live there. Miley couldnât understand what Westley was thinking. She felt it was a bad decision.
But Sophia had told her that Gabrielle enjoyed living there and also cleaned the yard and villa by herself.
She had planted some flowers and vegetables, transforming the villa into a vibrant abode.
Hearing that, Miley didnât protest further. After all, nothing mattered as long as Gabrielle was happy there.
Miley wanted Gabrielle to be happy and content.
âGrandma, we enjoy living there. I picked out flowers and planted them myself. It feels good.â Gabrielle grinned happily.
Miley smiled in return; she was relieved to hear that.
âIâm glad you are happy there. Letâs go inside.â Miley glanced at her and went into the house.
Bonnie and Tammy walked inside hand in hand, followed by Gabrielle and Westley. On their way inside, Gabrielle looked at Westley with concern and worry in her eyes. âI donât think grandma is happy with us living in Half Moon Bay.â
âItâs okay. Donât worry about it!â Westley smiled reassuringly.
âI know. Iâm just worried that Grandma might be upset about it.â Gabrielle was a sensitive person. She grew up as an adopted daughter and was careful about the things she did and said. Therefore, she had gotten accustomed to worrying about what people thought of her.
She was afraid that the Jones family would hate her for her wrong doings.
âShe wonât. Both the Vineyard Villa and Half Moon Bay belong to me. You are my wife; you can live wherever you want.
Grandma is just worried that you might not be comfortable there. It had been vacant for a long time, after all,â Westley calmly explained.
The villa in Half Moon Bay had been uninhabited for five years. It wasnât furnished or decorated, and no one had lived there so far. If it hadnât been for the accident, they wouldnât have moved in there so fast.
âYou seem to have a lot of properties!â Gabrielle shrugged.
She wasnât surprised that someone like Westley, who owned several limited edition cars, possessed many properties all around the city.
âJust a few. Iâll ask Alvin to make a list for you so that youâll know how many assets your husband has. After all, they are yours too,â said Westley.
