Chapter 140 The One Who Controls The Morris Group
Gabrielle was shocked when she learned that Westley actually went up the mountain carrying her bag on his back. Considering how heavy it was, she thought that he would have disposed of it the earliest he could.
But he didn’t. She couldn’t believe it.
“What’s wrong. Gabrielle?” Miley guffawed as soon as she spotted Gabrielle looking all dazed and confused.
She didn’t need to be told anything-she already knew what was going on inside the young lady’s head.
Westley had never been good at expressing himself and communicating his feelings, and so a lot of people thought he was cold and aloof. In reality. however, he cared about others very much.
He was also very transparent about it.
If he cared about someone, he would 17:37
absolutely do everything in his power for that person to feel comfortable and looked after. If he didn’t, nothing could force him to change his mind and do things he didn’t want to do.
Those were the things that Miley knew were true about Westley.
Because if they weren’t, she wouldn’t even mention Gabrielle’s bag to him. She knew that convincing him to take someone else’s belongings was next to impossible.
“I’m okay, Grandma. I just want to say that I can carry my own things.” Gabrielle flashed Miley a wide and Sincere smile.
Miley smiled back as she took Gabrielle’s hand in hers.
As soon as the two started walking, a voice behind them stopped them in their tracks.
“Gabrielle!”
Gabrielle knew who the voice was from right away-Mia. She quickly turned around and, as expected, saw Mia
waving at her. Walking beside her was her brother Micheal, who looked somehow unenthused about being outside. The two seemed to be on their way up the mountain as well
Gabrielle waved back at her friend enthusiastically, ecstatic to see a familiar face on the trail
“Mia, Mr. Robinson! You two are hiking as well? What a coincidence!” she lively greeted.
Mia ran to Gabrielle’s side at once and held her arm. As she did, she noticed a smiling Miley watching them silently.
“Grandma Miley!” Mia exclaimed. She gently took the old lady’s hands and held them tenderly. “It’s so nice to finally meet you! My name is Mia, Mia Robinson. I didn’t know you knew Gabrielle!”
Basing on the way the two interacted, Miley concluded that they must be close friends.
“You seem like a good friend of my Gabrielle,” Miley remarked with a grin on her face
“That’s right, Grandma! Gabrielle is my EFF. She’s almost a sister to me!” Mia wrapped her arms around Gabrielle and smiled contentedly.
She was about to tell Miley the story of how they met when she noticed Gabrielle’s meaningful stare. A chuckle left her lips and she promptly shut her mouth
The whole thing wasn’t a story worth telling, anyway.
“Well, that’s very lovely. isn’t it? Gabrielle has a good friend, and she’s from the Robinson family,” Miley liked a straightforward girl like Mia so much.
“Madame, I’m Micheal Robinson.” Though not sounding as eager as Mia, Micheal greeted the elderly lady with utmost reverence and respect.
“I know you,” Miley replied, still smiling, “I’ve heard a lot of good things about you. The Robinson family must be so proud to have someone like you.” Much like Westley, Micheal was very different from his peers. He looked gentle, quiet, and wise something you didn’t see in
The sincere compliment made Micheal’s cheeks glow with a subtle shade of pink. He took a deep breath to compose himself and said, “Thank you for your kind words. Madame. But I’m not as good as you said, especially when comparing with Mr. Morris.” Micheal wasn’t trying to flatter Westley. He was just telling the truth.
Although the two notable young men didn’t have any issue with one another, they were not friends either. The last time they interacted when Mia jumped into a river-tension between then began to arise.
brash attitude.” Micheal looked 50 embarrassed as he apologized for her sister’s actions.
