Chapter 231 Getting Tricked Again

Gabrielle quietly walked with Westley in front of the room. Dimly lit, the faint yellow lights of the corridor softly glimmered on them, casting their shadows at their backs.

Gabrielle was so cruel a while ago that it felt like she would not mind burning the whole place down. But the moment she stepped outside, her coldness and ruthlessness vanished into thin aifo What happened back there was enough to make her suddenly change colors. Timidly and uneasily. She looked at Westley with consideration

She had done the most overbearing and crazy thing of her life just some moments ago. Feeling awkward, Gabrielle again shuddered, thinking about the hug and the kiss she forced on Westley. ‘I went too far. Westley must be

so shocked. Maybe, upset too.’

She didn’t want to think about how Westley perceived her behavior earlier.

But she couldn’t seem to stop herself either. “Maybe, I am a shameless and pemissive woman for him, now.’ Gabrielle felt upset by this thought. This wasn’t how she wanted things to turn

“Westley. I… I just…” Gabrielle stuttered, trying to explain herself in words. But soon, she realized, it was too hard to give reasons for an uninvited kiss. Also, she didn’t know what to say at all.

“If you want to say something, Gabrielle, then don‘t falter.” Gabrielle’s healant expression and shy, stuttering lips nade her look like a cute kitten. Westley could see that she wasn’t Nomineering anymore.

‘Is she bipolar or Something? How can she switch between polar opposite personalities in just a blink?

She was so tyrannical before that I thought she’d blow Estelle’s head off. And now she can’t even speak well out of nervousness!

“I…” Finally, mustering up every ounce of courage in her, Gabrielle started speaking, “I’m sorry, Westley. But I swear, I kissed you only to imitate Estelle! I

didn’t want to annoy you. Please, don’t be angry with me at that!” Gabrielle tried to put on a sweet smile, masking her embarrassment.

Her smile stretched across her face as she lifted the corners of her mouth. Raising her eyebrows along. Gabrielle looked overloaded with cuteness. Firstly, no one could stand being angry in front of her cute face. Secondly, who said that Westley was angry? It was rare for Gabrielle to take the initiative and come closer, and Westley was glad that she did. But of course, he would never show her his true feelings.

WeWO

“Well, how would you make it up to me if I was to be angryz Westley was in a good mood, trying to gain some benefits from her by playing along.

“In that case, how about I take you to a restaurant and treat you to dinner tonight?” Gabrielle Smiled brightly. coming up with an excellent place to invite Westley for dinner.

For Gabrielle, that place offered delicious food at a suitable price. The beautiful scenery around there was a plus point, making her believe that Westley would

like it.

“Well, okay. But where are we going?” Secrets are always appealing to human curiosity. So, Westley was naturally interested to know about the restaurant Gabrielle had in mind.

“It’s a secret. You’ll find out soon.” Smiling proudly, Gabrielle shrugged and walked towards the car.

“A secret, huh?

Well, okay then. Let it be.

A little surprise won’t hurt, after all.” Westley smiled inwardly N

Looking at her watch, Gabrielle excitedly got into the car with Westley. It was already eight o’clock, the best time to go there.

“Mr. Hughes, take us to Lane Island.” Gabrielle showed the way to Alvin, who revved the car engine right after she finished speaking

Lane Island was a famous food spot in Antawood. It was near a fishing village, along the river of Antawood. After fishing was prohibited, the fishermen opened food stalls and supper restaurants here. So, for foodies, this place became a partial paradise at night. Because only they knew about such a cheap place that rich people weren’t aware of.

“Miss Jones, you know that place, too?” Being surprised at her words would be an understatement for Alvin. He knew this place because his primary school was nearby. But Alvin never took Gabrielle as someone who had been there.

“Yes, I know. I’m a foodie, after all.’ Gabrielle smiled awkwardly.

“Westley. The restaurants there are all small food stalls, offering cheap food that might not suit your taste. Are you sure you want to go there?” Gabrielle asked him uneasily.

When Wilson went abroad after graduation, Westley stopped coming there. It has been ten years now. I wonder how the place has changed.” Westley recalled how Lane Island looked back then.

“Okay. I’ll invite you to a western restaurant next time. But don’t leave today if you don’t like it.” Gabrielle gave a wamning look

“Westley, I am already inviting you to supper today. Do I really have to buy you Western food too?” Gabrielle looked at him regrettably. “You promised yourself.” Shrugging. Westley crossed his arms in front of his chest and leaned back. He closál his eyes, Testing comfortably.
