Chapter 197 An Avenue To Love Each Other

As soon as Gabrielle noticed that Westley had seen her, she quickly stopped looking at him in admiration. She became serious and indifferent all in one second and walked up to him unwillingly with the small bamboo basket in her hand, which contained the glass of water and towel which Miley had handed over to her.

When she got closer to him, she could see the sweat and some traces of mud on his face. But even at that, it didn’t affect how handsome he looked at all. On the contrary, it added a whiff of wildness to him.

As it turned out, some men also looked charming when they were working on a farm.

“Damn it!

Stop drawing in your mind, Gabrielle. The man in front of you is not the one you have always wanted to draw,’ she

thought as she tried to herself.

 

 

“Westley, this is the water and the towel that Miley asked me to bring to you. Help yourself,” she said to him bluntly. As she said this, she took a brief look at him and discovered that he was looking at her in silence with his hands crossed on top of the hoe. His deep and unfathomable eyes stared at her face.

“What do you think you are doing, Westley? Don’t you understand what I’mi saying? Or is it that you don’t want to drink the water? If you don’t, I can just take it back inside the house. Or could it be that there is something on my face?” She asked him a series of questions as she felt uneasy under his gaze.

What she hated most was that he didn’t say anything but kept looking at her with a faint smile on his face. She felt that he looked very dangerous with the way he was looking

She believed that there was something bad hidden under this particular expression on his face.

“My hands are dirty, Gabrielle. Can you please feed me?” he asked her in a low

voice.

When she heard this, she was at a loss for words. She looked at him with a very upset face. “Who is going to feed you? Don’t you have hands anymore? I don’t care whether you drink the water or not.

As Westley looked at his wife, he observed that she was becoming bolder with time. She could even be so daring in front of him now.

“You know very well that I’m not lying to you, Gabrielle. See, take a look at my hands. They are both covered with mud.” As he said this, he dropped the hoe he was holding and showed her his dirty hands.

Gabrielle took a look at his fair, slender and bony hands, which were covered with black and yellow mud. She had thought what he promised his grandma was just a desultory response and he wouldn’t do it.

After she had hesitated for a while, she took the glass out of the basket and raised it close to his mouth so that he could drink. “Drink it quickly. I still have to go to the chicken nest to pick up some

“Did my grandma ask you to do that?” he asked her as he bent over to drink the water from the glass that she was holding

For a moment, she was so nervous that she almost dropped the glass in her hand.

“Of course, Miley was the one who asked me to do that. She is going to make mne fried eggs for dinner,” she said as she tried her possible best to calm her nerves.

Westley drank up the glass of water easily and then looked at her.

“The chicken that my grandma is raising are very fierce. They would peck people. Are you sure that she told you to do that?” he reminded her calmly. Even though what he said was half true and half false

“No, that can’t be true. How can chicken peck someone?” She didn’t want to believe what he had said. She had always sensed that he was deliberately trying to frighten her.

I’m just telling you the truth. It’s your business, whether you choose to believe it or not,” he said to her in a very relaxed tone.

 

 

Although she knew that her husband was an annoying man, she was certain that he would not cheat others. If he had said it, then what he said must be true.

‘So, the chicken raised by Miley could peck people? But why didn’t she tell me in advance? Was she thinking that I was a heroine who wouldn’t be pecked?” she reasoned

 

“Of course, I’m serious. But before we go over there, you have to first help me wipe the sweat off my face. The sweat
