Chapter 203 A Caring Husband

Miley and Westley were still having dinner. Right now, the atmosphere was a bit tensed. Everybody in the Morris family knew that talking about Helena, especially when Westley was there, was forbidden.

But the main reason why Miley talked about Helena with Westley today was that she didn’t want Gabrielle to be furt in any way. She had thought that Westley had already forgotten about Helena ever since he married Gabrielle, instead of Nellie. .

But it was now obvious that Westley hadn’t gotten rid of Helena’s shadow and was still going to take Nellie back as a substitute for Helena. i

‘He said he had never thought of her. I know very well that he is lying!” Miley thought.

She felt that Westley had gone too far this time around.

“Let’s just end this discussion right here, grandma. There’s no need to talk about it anymore. I’mn full and I’m going back to my room. You don’t need to clean up the dishes tonight. I’ll make sure that I do them tomorrow moming.” As soon as Westley said this, he stood up and left.

As Miley saw Westley leave, she became even more upset. Although he said that he would come to clean up the table the following moming, it still made her angry.

“You brat! Your temper is becoming worse with each passing day. You even had the guts to pull a long face right in my presence. Isn’t it because I have been able to expose something that has been on your mind all this while? Is a dead woman worth you worrying about for so many years?” Miley murmured discontentedly.

But in reality, Westley never took Nellie as a substitute for her sister, Helena.

After all, except for how they looked, there was nothing similar between the two of them. Their personalities were different

The reason why he had accepted the proposal of the Collins family to get engaged to Nellie was that the two sisters had a very good relationship when Helena was still alive. Helena, who had a strong personality and a stubborn temper, was very fond of her sister. For this reason, the Collins family had no choice but to obey her all the time.

But what about Nellie? She was a very weak girl who was used to being obedient even when she was supposed to resist. When Helena was still alive, she was worried that her sister would be sold by the Collins family in the future if she wasn’t there to defend her.

which was why Westley agreed to get engaged to Nellie because he just wanted to help Helena take care of her sister. There was nothing more than that. He even thought that they wouldn’t live together after they got married. He had also decided that he would give her a chance to remarry when she met a man that she liked.

But in the end, she ran away before the wedding and eloped with Bryce. That she was so bold to run away with a man surprised everybody including Westley. .

This singular act of hers was a slap on Westley’s face and the Morris family in general. This also ruined the relationship between the two families. They were not going to let it go so easily. .

Adults should be responsible for what they have done, and Nellie, together with Bryce, was not an exception,

By the time Westley went back to his room, he saw that the innermost quilt on the big bed was bulged up. With her back to him, it seemed as if Gabrielle was asleep.

But in fact, she didn’t fall asleep. As it stood, her mind was in a total mess and as a result of this, sleep eluded her.

She was about to go downstairs to have a glass of water when she got frightened by hearing such a shocking detail. She ran back to her room and tucked herself in bed.

Right now, it was crystal clear that the woman Westley liked was not Nellie, but Helena. But he didn’t end up marrying Helena, and he was going to marry her sister who looked like Helena to be a contemporary substitute.

“But what about me?

Why do I always have to be the scapegoat?’

As Gabrielle kept thinking back and forth about this issue, she couldn’t help but feel so sad.

It turned out that she was as unfortunate as Nellie. ‘No wonder she ran away from the wedding No one would want to be regarded as a substitute for her sister, Gabrielle thought.

All of a sudden, she wanted to be bold like Nellie and also run away from this marriage, but she wished that she could run away with another man that she liked.

If Nellie didn’t elope with Bryce, would Westley have gone to the Jones family to get even with them? Would he have asked her to take the blame for Nellie by marrying him? Would she have become his wife?

 

“Damn it! Where did so many hypotheses come from?’ Gabrielle wondered. The only thing she knew right now was that she was the wife of Westley, a wife that

had slept with her husband!

Westley went to the bathroom, took a shower, and came back. He saw that the figure on the bed was still the same as before and it didn’t change at all. Since when did Gabrielle start sleeping obediently?” he wondered.

was fine before she went upstairs. Or was it because of grandma’s silly joke?! he wondered
