Chapter 199 A Charming Man
The atmosphere was still calm as Westley went upstairs to take a shower. Gabrielle stared at Miley in utter shock. She still hadn’t recovered from the conversation between Westley and his grandma.
This was the first time that she had seen the two of them get along with each other in this way, but even at that it still, felt warm.
“Come back to your senses, Gabrielle. Your husband is upstairs already,” Miley said as she waved her hand in front of Gabrielle to snap her out of her thoughts,
As soon as this happened, Gabrielle regained her composure. “I’m not looking at him, Miley! I was just staring at you. Nothing more.”
“Well, if you say so. But one thing I know for sure is that my grandson is very charming. Whether he’s in a shirt, a suit, or even in dirty clothes, he still looks
handsome. Are you cnchanted by him and think it’s worth it that you married such a handsome husband?”
Miley teased Gabnelle with a broad smile.
Under Miley’s gaze, Gabrielle’s face turned red as she looked at Miley with timidity. “What are you talking about, Miley? Westley and I are not like what you have in mind.”
“What do you think I have in mind? You got the marriage certificate with my witness. Isn’t Westley your legal husband? If truth be told, I know that you are under pressure because you married such a handsome and enchanting husband. But thinking about what he did for you today. you can see very well that he would like to protect you at all costs. He picked up eggs for you and was pecked by a chicken in the process,” Miley said as she beamed with smiles.
All of a sudden, Gabrielle realized something and stared at Miley with a pair of bright black eyes. “Miley, why do I have a feeling that you did this on purpose?” she asked Miley with her gaze still fixed on her.
Gabrielle felt that everything had been carefully thought out and arranged by her husband’s grandma and then she had jumped into the traps one by one. Miley had always been known for her beautiful smiles which made her look kind and lovely, but right now, Gabrielle felt that this woman was as scheming as Westley only that she was even more scheming and so Westley was no match for her
“Really? Do you think so? You think I did it on purpose, Gabrielle? Remember that you were the one who said you wanted to stay back and help me All I did was assign you tasks, didn’t I?” Miley asked as she looked at Gabrielle calmly without feeling any guilt whatsoever.
Gabrielle thought for a while and later felt that maybe it was just a coincidence. Miley had just given her and Westley some tasks to do, but it just happened that Westley helped her to do the last
When something happened, she didn’t even react to it.
“Gabrielle, don’t you want to thank me for letting you see all the advantages of
being with Westley? just look at the way he is protecting you. You should do your best to cherish him now that he’s with you.” It was obvious that Miley was trying to cheer her up. She looked so cute when she did this. i
Gabrielle’s face flushed at that instant. Just then, she found out that she couldn’t continue the conversation with Miley because it couldn’t go smoothly anymore. All Miley was trying to do right now was to keep talking about her grandson, thereby teasing Gabrielle.
“Miley, where is the medicine box? Let me go upstairs first and deal with Westley’s wounds.” Gabrielle planned to run away first, or else she would be teased by Miley over and over again.
Miley always liked to tease the two of them. ‘Is Westley that good?’ Gabrielle wondered.
“You’ve always said you didn’t care, but in fact, you care about Westley so much. If he knew this, he would be very impressed. Let me quickly get you the medicine box now,” Miley said as she quickly went to the locker to get the medicine box.
“Gabrielle, take it upstairs. Westley should have taken a shower by now. You can also take a shower first before coming downstairs for dinner. But it doesn’t matter if you come down later, Just take your time.” Miley winked at Gabrielle knowingly as she put the medicine box into Gabrielle’s hands.
She pretended as if she didn’t hear Miley’s words and just went upstairs carrying the medicine box in her hand. What she had in mind right now was how she was going to deal with Westley’s injuries as soon as possible.
By the time she entered the room, she didn’t see anyone but only heard the sound of water flowing in the bathroom and knew that Westley was still in the bathroom.
“Westley, aren’t you done taking a shower?” Gabrielle asked as she stood outside the door of the bathroom.
