Chapter 211 The Dispute
Lance drove his car to the shopping mall in silence. As soon as they arrived at the mall, Gabrielle got out of the car in a hurry and waved Lance goodbye.
“Thank you for driving me here, Lance. Bye. Drive safe!
Gabrielle smiled as she waved her hand and was about to leave.
“Wait for me, I’ll wait with you. After all, it would be impolite of me not to greet my aunt. I’ll leave once I see her,” Lance said as he tried to get off the car.
He just wanted to spend more time with her and he was just looking for an excuse to do so.
“Come on, Lance. You know that you don’t have to. Besides, you can’t park the car here for a long time. You will get a parking ticket later. You should be focused on finding out where my brother and Nellie are as soon as possible. That’s the most important thing right now. Gabrielle reminded him seriously.

Lance. It doesn’t matter whether I get divorced or not, I just want to continue designing jewelry. That’s all I want to focus on, Gabrielle answered his question seriously.
Galwithat’s an
At that moment, Lance knew what was going on in her mind. Her biggest dream was to become a well-known jewelry designer. It seemed that the Carter Group could branch out into this field. Since he already knew that Gabrielle had such a dream, he would do his best to help her achieve what she wanted.
“Well, I’ll take my leave now. Have a good time with your mother. I’ll inform you as soon as I get any more infomation concerning Bryce and Nellie. “Without hesitating any longer. Lance started the car and left.
As she saw his car leave, Gabrielle breathed a sigh of relief. She turned and went into the cafe on the top floor of the shopping mall and called Wendy.
“Mom, I’m at the Bio Mall. Didn’t you ask me to go shopping with you today to buy a birthday gift for Grandpa? Well, if you’re available this afternoon, you can come right away. I’ll be waiting for you here.” Gabrielle said to her mom on the phone. As she sat at a table by the window, she felt better when she saw the pounding traffic and the pulsating crowds downstairs.
“Okay. I’ll be on my way to the mall now. Just wait for a few minutes.” Wendy couldn’t contain her joy. It wasn’t just because Gabrielle was accompanying her to buy a birthday gift, but because Westley was going to be there on that day.
She believed that as long as Gabrielle’s husband was around for Kylo’s birthday party, the marriage between him and Gabrielle would be made public.
And whether they liked it or not, once their marriage became public, everyone would know that the Morris family and the Jones family were now relatives because of their marriage. For this reason, no one in Antawood would dare to be rude to the Jones family.
After she hung up the phone, Gabrielle sat there quietly, waiting for her mother. Just then, she met an unexpected guest.
“Finally, I get to meet you, Gabrielle” With a ferocious look on her face, Estelle stood in front of Gabrielle with one hand on her waist.
As soon as Gabrielle saw who it was, she cast a cold glance at her. “Ms. Johnson, I don’t think there’s anything between us that makes you so happy to see me.”
“Happy to see you? You must be mistaken, Gabrielle. Don’t flatter yourself too much. Well, that’s by the way. Let me ask you something Several projects of the Johnson Group were originally finalized, but as I speak to you now, they are stuck Could this be as a result of something you are doing behind the scenes?” Estelle asked.
Knowing that several projects of the Johnson Group were hampered, the first thought that came to Gabrielle’s mind was that Westley was behind all this. By the way, it was Estelle’s friends who had beaten her and Sloane. They were severely injured that they were taken to the hospital, and to make matters worse, Sloane was still not awake yet. As far as Gabrielle knew, it was only Westley that could erect obstacles so easily to hinder these projects
But she would never let this woman called Estelle know about it.
“Ms. Johnson, do you think I’m the one or do you think that the Jones family can block your projects? Why don’t you have a rethink about this? It’s possible that the Johnson family has already offended a lot of people and someone else did this on purpose to punish you.” Gabrielle said with a sneer on her face.
“The Johnson family doesn’t have so many enemies, Gabrielle. It was you and Westley, who set me up the last time. Are you…”
Gabrielle’s face darkened as she heard this and allowed the cold glance on her face to fall in Estelle. “Well, maybe it was because Benny felt guilty about what you did and he decided to do something for Sloane and so he took action against the Johnson Group. After all, he is capable of doing that, isn’t he?”
