Chapter 216 Kidnapping Gabrielle
Gabrielle felt relieved when she saw Wendy’s car drive away. It was already half-past five. She hurried to go back because she had promised to cook dinner for Westley today.
Gabrielle was well aware of how upset Westley would be if she failed to prepare
dinner on time.
Walking to the nearby intersection, she hastened to take a taxi. She was booking a cab on the phone when an MPV stopped in front of her. Before realization could dawn upon Gabrielle that what was happening the door opened, and two strong bands pulled her into the car. Her mobile phone fell to the ground with an audible clonk.
“Hey, what… Umm…” Gabrielle attempted to scream, but soon as she did, her mouth was covered by a towel. Sucking in a sharp breath, she soon passed out. Before she had closed her eyes, she only managed to see two
muscular fellows.
Who could’ve sent someone to kidnap her? Gabrielle had been unconscious to know.
Westley purposefully left the company early and reached Half Moon Bay at half past five.
He didn’t see Gabrielle when he entered.
He only noticed Sophie, who was gardening in the yard.
Westley‘s first thoughts were that perhaps Gabrielle was in the kitchen, so he didn’t care much about it.
“Mr. Morris, why are you here?
Sophie was surprised to see him.
His arrival was unexpected for her. Gabrielle didn’t say much on the phone before, so Sophie thought that Westley wouldn’t come to Half Moon Bay.
“Didn’t Gabrielle tell you? Where is she, by the way? Is she in the kitchen?” Westley strode inside, meeting a quiet
and empty room.
‘Is Gabrielle still shopping for gifts with
Wendy?
It’s almost six o’clock. Is she planning to come back and cook me a midnight snack instead of dinner?’ Westley huffed.
“Mr. Morris, Miss Jones hasn’t come back yet. At about five o’clock, she called and asked me to prepare the ingredients. She said that she will come back soon and cook dinner. She is always punctual, so if there will be any change, she will call me.” Sophie tried to calm Westley “I hope she is on the way here, and maybe she’s late because of the traffic jam. Don’t worry, Mr. Morris.”
Sophie didn’t delay anymore and called Gabrielle right away Gabrielle had only asked her to prepare the ingredients. She didn’t mention that Westley would come for dinner.
To Sophie, Y seemed that Westley and Gabrielle’s relationship was getting better, which was a good thing for her. 1
“Hello, Miss Jones, where are you?”
“Hello, are you the friend of the owner of this phone? I’m a cleaner near the Bio Mall. I found this phone here.”
A middle-aged woman’s voice came from the other end of the line.
Upon hearing this, Sophie felt prickled, She immediately ran to Westley. “Mr. Morris, someone else picked up Miss Jones’s phone. She says that she found it.
A frown appeared on Westley’s face Grabbing Sophie’s phone, he answered t. “Hello, I’m the husband of the owner of that phone. Where and when did you find my wife’s phone?”
