Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 107

Gabrielle couldn't 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, Gabrielle's face turned red all of a sudden. But there was no sign of Westley in the room now. Perhaps he didn't 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. "Good morning, Gabrielle."

"Good morning, Sophie." Sophie kept staring at Gabrielle, and that was freaking her out a bit.

"Sophie, what's the matter? Is there something on my face?" Gabrielle hesitantly asked.

"There is nothing on your face, Gabrielle. It is pretty as always. Did you sleep well last night?"

Sophie couldn't 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.

"I believe I slept well. By the way, Sophie, where did Westley sleep last night? Have you seen him?" Gabrielle inquired.

Sophie wasn't smiling anymore. All of a sudden, she gave Gabrielle a puzzled look. "Gabrielle, don't you have any memory of Westley carrying you back into the room last night?"

Gabrielle shook her head while taking a bite of the deep fried dough stick. "Actually, I don't remember anything. All I know is that I was sleeping on the sofa, and then woke up in the room. I didn't see Westley anywhere."

Sophie felt downhearted after hearing that from Gabrielle. Nothing had happened between the two like how she imagined it would.

"What's wrong, Sophie?" All that joy on Sophie's face disappeared, and was replaced by a sullen look.

"That's all right. Mr. Morris had left before I got up," Sophie answered.

"Oh okay," uttered Gabrielle. She was right about Westley hating her. He probably left early because he couldn't be in the same room with her.

"Gabrielle, it looks like Mr. Morris cares about you." Sophie continued talking about Westley.

The conversation didn't excite Gabrielle at all. She didn't even bother to think about it. She just accepted it and quickly had her breakfast. She then left to her room to call Wendy.

"Gabrielle, dear, what's up?" Wendy sounded calm and cheerful.
