Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 292

Chapter 292 Dont Mention This Man

The Garcia family was not as smart as the Johnson family. When their daughter started a ruckus, not only did they cover for her, but they also made trouble for Westley, which could only speed up their downfall. They had it coming. Existing in the city was not a viable choice for them.

It did not take much for Westley to fulfill their death wish. Their family business went bankrupt and closed down all in one night.

No one living in Antawood would be able to make it out alive once they got on Westley’s bad side. People often made him out to be callous and brutal. He was coined “the King of Hell in Antawood” for a reason.

“Are you going to stay with me tonight?” Gabrielle stole a look at the “King of Hell in Antawood”. Apathy was the only thing one could see in his seemingly undisturbed face and chilling eyes.

Cher 293 Don’t Mention THS “Would you assume that I only ever come see you at night if I don’t?” There was a shadow of a smile on his face albeit his eyes still looked placid.

Gabrielle glanced at her phone, missing the look on his face.

Jax sent her a message. His text was straightforward. He caught wind of the incident with Emily and asked if he could come to the hospital to check on her.

Her reply was consisted of two short words, “no need”.

She turned to gaze at Westley. It looked as if this man really wanted to stay the night.

“You don‘t have to sleep here if you don’t want to. I’m going to be fine by myself. Sophie told me that you were by my side until dawn.

Your hand still hasn’t recovered. Staying the night will drain you even more.” Gabrielle clearly did not want Westley to stay at the hospital. His hand was injured and so was her back. If they both exhausted their efforts taking care of each other, they would never get better.

“This is a hospital. God forbid something happens to my hand, this would be the most convenient place to be. I would be able to get treatment right away.” Westley said with no trace of eagerness.

Gabrielle could not find the right words

“Alright, but you should go to bed early tonight,” she said dejectedly.

Her living conditions were not exactly ideal. The suite she was in only had a small room. There was barely enough space on the bed for a man as tall as Westley but it would still beat sleeping on the sofa.

Westley was delighted by Gabrielle’s concern.

Come morning, Mia came to the hospital with Micheal’s blessing. She bought Gabrielle a sumptuous breakfast on the way.

With full knowledge that Westley was in the hospital too, she took initiative and got him a meal as well.

“Gabrielle, I’m here! It’s so nice to see you!” Mia, with bags of food on hand,

was practically chirping on her way to the suite. It did not surprise her to see Gabrielle sitting on the bed. Westley was just coming out of the toilet when she anived

“Good morning! Should I have come in at a later time? It seems like I caught you in the iniddle of something.” She was evidently apologetic but there was no trace of guilt on her face.

Westley staying the night with Gabrielle was something Mia had expected.

“I must have interrupted them. I think I got here way too early. Oh well!’

“Miss Robinson, what brought you here so early?” asked Westley monotonously. Obviously, her premature arrival did not amuse him.

He crossed the distance between him and the sofa, put his jacket on and Straightened his tie all in one swift movement.

Mia coincidentally caught a glimpse of his tie.

“Is that Gabrielle’s present?

She fished for an answer. Mia wasn’t exactly sure what tie Gabrielle had picked for Westley yesterday.

“Yes.” Westley said flatly.

It shocked Mia to know that she was right.

“Looking dapper this morning, Mr. Morris.”

She commended Westley with a naughty expression spread across her face.

“Thank you.” Westley thanked her with utmost chivalry.

“You must cherish it. Gabrielle literally put everything on the line to retrieve it. That was the last thing she spoke about before she fainted.” 4

Mia opted to tell him how gallant it was of Gabrielle for that to be the last thing on her mind during one of the most dangerous moments of her life. There was nothing like it.
