Chapter 118 Gabrielle‘s Convenience
The aura in Half Moon Bay Villa was energetic. It was still early in the morning and the birds chirped noisily. Sophie was in the kitchen preparing breakfast for Gabrielle. All of a sudden, Gabrielle came in and hugged her from behind warmly with so much enthusiasm. Sophie was surprised and wondered what made Gabrielle so happy.
“I’m so happy. Sophie. I can’t begin to explain how happy I am. I’m going to see Sloane very soon,” she said excitedly. Even when she let go of Sophie, the excitement was still written all over her. 15
The fact that Gabrielle was happy also made Sophie happy. Westley knew his wife very well. He knew what to do to make her joyful.
“Have breakfast first, Gabrielle. After that, I’ll ask the driver to take you to the hospital to see your friend.” When she saw that Gabrielle was overjoyed, she couldn’t help but also share in her joy.
Besides, she was a maid to Gabrielle. She would surely be unhappy if her mistress was in a bad mood every day. For this reason, she had to share in her joy.
“Okay, Sophie. I’ve heard you, I’ll have breakfast now. Have you eaten yet? If not, join me, let’s have breakfast together,” she said to her with smiles. Gabrielle warmly asked her to sit with her.
“I’ve had breakfast already. Gabrielle. I ate before you came downstairs. You can eat by yourself.” A
Gabrielle sat down and put steamed dumplings into her mouth in a hurry as if she wanted to eat all the breakfast on her plate in one bite. She did so because she was in a hurry to see Sloane.
“Gabrielle, slow down. Don’t rush your meal. The driver is waiting patiently for you. He won’t drive away before you’re done. Besides, Sloane will also wait for you,” Sophie advised her. She was frightened to see the way Gabrielle was eating quickly like she was being pursued. She was also afraid that the food might choke her.
Fortunately, Westley was not around, or else, he would also feel very uncomfortable seeing her eat in such a manner.
The Morris family had always been strict with etiquette and table manners. No one gobbled down food or rushed while eating.
Gabrielle was in a hurry to see Sloane. Her friend was very important to her.
“I know, Sophie. I’ll eat slowly from now on. By the way, what driver are you talking about? I don’t remember us having a driver here. Or do we now have a driver here?” she asked in surprise. Gabrielle still remembered that her husband had sent Sophie to take care of her ever since he left her here. There has never been a driver or any car. It was just the two of them.
“Actually, the driver came from the Vineyard Villa this morning. Mr. Morris sent him to you. He is afraid that it will be inconvenient for you to go out. At least, when the driver is here, you can ask him to drive you wherever you want to go. It’s better
that way as it is advantageous and safe. Recently. I heard that it’s no longer safe to take a taxi. It is said that there are always some girls missing and that these said girls used a taxi before they went missing. It’s terrible. Since you are a beautiful girl, you are more likely to be targeted by the bad guys.” Looking at her pretty face, Sophie praised her again and again, which made Gabrielle’s cheeks turn pink as she blushed.
Gabrielle was really beautiful. She was even much more beautiful than Nellie.
“Ha-ha, Sophie, please don’t make fun of me. I’m not that beautiful. I don’t think I’m that attractive to the bad guys. But anyway, it’s always easier and safer to have a driver than to take a taxi,” she agreed. She was grateful that Westley had called the driver for her. Other than that, she had no right to call the driver here. Without his permission also, she couldn’t go back to live in the Vineyard Villa. She was strictly following instructions. 1
In other words, having a full-time driver was equivalent to him monitoring her.
No matter where she went in Antawood, he would know it immediately.
Damn it!’ she cursed under her breath.
To this effect, he wasn’t so kind after all. He had an ulterior motive.
But then, what about her freedom in the future?
If she refused the driver sent by Westley, it meant she declared open war on him. She didn’t have the guts to do that.
As it stood, both the Jones family and Bryce’s lives
were in his hands. It she cared to PIOVURE . LE could easily wipe them off from the face of the earth and there was nothing she could do about it.
The more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. Soon enough, she had a lot of thoughts going through her mind.
Westley had such a careful mind, he calculated his steps one at a time. She couldn’t fight him even if she wanted to. 1
became. She just couldn’t help it.
Her husband was a cunning man. He wouldn’t even let her go as he had his eyes all over the city.
At the same time, Westley was in a high-level meeting with the senior members of the Morris Group. A sudden Sneeze from him startled everybody. They were all worried that their boss would be sick.
Alvin immediately brought him a tissue. “Mr. Morris. you are not feeling very well. Did you catch a cold last night?” he asked with concern.
