Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 113

Chapter 113 You Are So Angry

As soon as Sophie heard the sound of the kitchen knife dropping on the ground, she quickly left the pipe and ran towards the sound. She saw Gabrielle tightly clutching her left hand with her right. Sophie was immediately alarmed by the sight of blood flowing from her injury.

“Gabrielle, are you all right? What should I do? There’s so much blood. I think I’ll need to send you to the hospital now! How about I call Remy over…”

Although Gabrielle was in slight pain, it definitely wasn’t enough to fetch Remy over.

“Sophie, is there a medicine cabinet at home? Gabrielle was keeping a much cooler head than Sophie.

“Yes, there is one at home. I’ll find it for you.” Sophie hurried out of the room.

After having lived here for a few days, Sophie had become very familiar with the house. She knew exactly where everything was and could find it easily

Soon, Sophie came back with a white box containing a family medical kit. However, when she looked at Gabrielle’s hand now, she noticed it was not bleeding as profusely as before.

“Okay. I’ve got the medicine box. Let go of your hand so I can help you stop the bleeding.” Sophie said.

 

Gabrielle trusted Sophie completely. She loosened

her hand and did as she was instructed. After carefully wiping the blood off the surface of her hand, Sophie unearthed the wound and applied the hemostatic agent on it.

-Gabrielle, the cut is a little serious. We will need to apply some ointment to stop it from bleeding more. How did you get so many cuts?” After Sophie cleaned up all the blood on Gabrielle’s hand, she found that there were three or four small cuts, which had been far more difficult to spot under all that blood

“It doesn’t matter. I just used these knives. But I guess they aren’t very suitable for me. If I use them enough, I’ll be more familiar with them and probably won’t get hurt again,” Gabrielle explained stiffly, knowing how bizarre and farfetched her explanation sounded.

“No, let me prepare the dishes, now. If you hurt your hand again…”

“Sophie, I’m fine. I’ve promised Westley I’ll cook dinner for him, and I want to honor my word,” Gabrielle said firmly, with a sense of determination in her bright and clear eyes.

After being so closely acquainted with Gabrielle over the last couple of days, Sophie had a clearer idea of how stubborn Gabrielle was. She knew it was difficult to change the young lady’s mind after she had made it up

Otherwise, such a large patch of weeds wouldn’t have been cleared by her hands.

“Alright, I’ll help you from the sidelines, though. I’m afraid you’ll get hurt again.” As she took a step back, Westley’s words flashed across Sophie’s mind

inexplicably. She was afraid that if it went on like this, Gabrielle might really burn the kitchen down.

Sophie was right to feel nervous.

“Sophie, I won’t get hurt again. I’ve already cut all the ingredients that I needed. I just need to cook them, now.” Gabrielle tried to comfort Sophie in a soothing voice

Sophie nodded for her sake, but was still doubtful and it showed. “Okay I have an idea. How about you stand aside and tell me how to do it? I don’t think it’ll be too convenient or practical to cook with your hand bound up.”

“I hurt my left hand, not the right one. It doesn’t matter at all. Also, Sophie, when you bandage me later, please keep it light and loose. Try to make sure the bandages aren’t too thick or tightly wound so it doesn’t affect my operation,” Gabrielle insisted.

It was the first time that Sophie had felt so useless as a servant.

“Sophie, I know you want to help me, but this is what I have promised Westley. I can’t break my promise.” Gabrielle said seriously.

“Well, Mr. Morris will understand what you mean. He’ll definitely feel your kindness and love towards him.” Sophie explicitly expressed her beliefs out loud.

Love?

That was not true at all. How could Gabrielle love Westley? She probably hated him instead.

 

However, Gabrielle didn’t want to break the happy

reverie that Sophie seemed to be in.

“Hey. Sophie, the blood has stopped. Could you wrap the gauze around it, now?” Gabrielle looked at her hand and found that it was not bleeding anymore.
