Chapter 123 She‘s Happy With Another Man

They were still in their separate restaurants eating. The way Gabrielle was getting bolder recently infuriated Westley to his hones. Earlier that morning. Sophie had told him that Gabrielle went to the hospital to see her friend, Sloane, and was very happy about it.

And now, here she was, having lunch with Lawrence and smiling from ear to ear. It showed that she was also happy being with him.

When he thought about how she had been reluctant to have dinner with him the night before, he got angry even more. “Who does this woman think she is?” he asked himself.

“Do you know that woman, Mr. Morris?” Brent asked as he looked at Westley’s face squarely.

Although Brent and Westley became close friends in recent years, Brent knew that his friend had a lover who he had loved for so many years. Her name was Helena, the eldest daughter of the Collins family. They were so in love that they planned to get married.

Despite that, before they were able to get married, there was a shootout. Westley was

badly injured, but his lover, Helena died on The spot. Ever since then, he had never been close to any other woman. He found it difficult to forget someone who he had loved so much..

Later on, he got engaged to the second daughter of the Collins family. Nellie and they were supposed to get married this year. But unfortunately, there was no news about their wedding. It was a problem whether he would still get married or not. Besides, just a few men could take the kind of decision he took. Who would do such a thing as marrying the sister of their deceased lover?

But then, the woman sitting opposite Lawrence was not the second daughter of the Collins family, but judging from the way Westley stared at her, it was obvious that he cared so much about her.

‘Who is this girl?’

All of a sudden, Brent was curious about it.

“Mr. Hughes, it’s none of my business how Lawrence used to play. I can’t control him or care too much about what he does, but you see that woman right there with him? I hope he can stay away from her as far and as soon as possible,” Westley told him and then sat again in silence, gracefully cutting the steak in front of him with a knife and a fork.

Somehow, Erent felt that it was not the steak that Westley cut directly, but that he was cutting his brother, Lawrence.

“Mr. Morris, you mean that? Is that girl very important to you?” he asked Westley.

They were all smart people in the business world. Since Brent had asked, he wouldn’t deny it.

“She is a very special person to me, so please go back and discipline Vice Mr. Hughes. He shouldn’t mess with the wrong person because it has grave consequences. I still want to cooperate with Mr. Hughes and the Hughes Group for a very long time,” he said and put down the knife and fork, picked up the glass of wine, and took a sip.

From his words, Brent understood clearly that this woman had a special place in Westley’s heart and for this reason, it was better not to offend him for the time being.

When he got back home, he would tell his brother about it. He could pick up as many girls as he wanted, but he had to first find out who she belonged to before he killed himself unknowingly.

“Don’t worry about it, Mr. Morris. I’m going to take care of this. Do you need me to call him right this minute?” Brent thoughtfully

Westley shook his head negatively. “No, Mr. Hughes. There is no need. Just let him stay away from this particular woman in the future.”

“All right, it’s okay. I can do it. I apologize on his behalf.” Erent spoke calmly.

It was easy for him

to teach Lawrence a

lesson

After that, Westley didn’t say one more word, but from time to time, his eyes would dart downstairs.

Gabrielle didn’t know if she was thinking too much or someone was staring at her. She just felt that someone was staring at her emotionlessly.

She turned around and looked out of the window. There were only passers-by on the street and they were all strangers. She didn’t see anybody she knew

Or could it be that she was hallucinating?
