Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 324

Gabrielle hesitated to respond when Lance asked her about her whereabouts. She just wanted to be alone without anyone bothering her.

 

She assumed that Lance was asking her because he wanted to see her.

 

"Lance, I am at the Jones family mansion to see my mom and the others." Gabrielle wasn't really fond of lying, but she needed to be alone for a while to calm herself down.

 

She simply wanted some peace of mind.

 

"Well, since you are with them, it's okay. Are you going to join the Jones family for dinner tonight? Or do you have some time to spare? I am actually hoping to have dinner with you." Lance was asking Gabrielle out for dinner because he wanted to see her.

 

"No, thanks, Lance. I'm going to have dinner with Westley tonight," Gabrielle answered in a low voice.

 

The truth is, she didn't want to have dinner with Westley either. She just wanted to spend time with herself. She was dealing with too much already that she badly wanted solitude.

 

Upon hearing Gabrielle's response, Lance immediately knew that she was rejecting him. He had nothing else to say then.

 

When Gabrielle got married to Westley, her demeanor had changed completely. It was not in her nature to be self-centered, but after the marriage she always prioritized Westley above everything.

 

Gabrielle just wanted to be a good wife. He had no right to meddle with that.

 

"Well, you can go home and have dinner with Westley. But promise me that you won't go to Thailand alone, Gabrielle," Lance reminded her again.

 

"Lance, I know. If there is nothing else, I will hang up now. Don't worry, I won't go to Thailand impulsively," Gabrielle answered. She then hung up the phone.

 

She sat down again on the flowerbed. Her mind was in a total mess. She wanted to clear things up before she came home. But everything became messier as time passed by. She felt all the information was intertwined and tangled in her brain, like a messy thread ball.

 

It was getting late and the children had already been taken home by their parents. There was only Gabrielle sitting alone in the amusement park now. The light from the street lamps shone on her, reflecting her shadow on the ground.

 

When Westley arrived at the amusement park, it was completely dark except for the light that was coming from the street lamp. Gabrielle's head was bowed on her bent legs. She was curling up like an abandoned little creature. She looked really lonely and helpless. Westley wasn't sure whether she was asleep or not.

 

After leaving No. 1 Champs Elysees Hotel at noon, she went directly to the Jones family mansion instead of returning to Half Moon Bay. Westley was actually a little angry when he learned about it.

 

It was definitely not a good idea that the Jones family asked Gabrielle to come over at such a time. The Jones family should have known the news that something had happened to Bryce in Thailand.

 

After all, the Jones family, the Collins family and Lance had already sent out men to look for Bryce and Nellie. But they still hadn't found any information about them. So everyone was really worried.

 

It was obvious that Gabrielle's visit to the Jones family mansion hadn't been a good one.

 

She must have suffered a lot while she was with the Jones family and didn't know what to do, so she just hid in this place alone.

 

Westley was really angry and wanted to scold her. Why was she always carrying all the burdens by herself?

 

But as he stared at Gabrielle now, looking completely helpless and miserable, his heart softened in an instant. How could he even say a word to scold her?

 

Westley took off his windbreaker and gently covered her back with it. It made Gabrielle realize that she wasn't alone anymore in the park. So she looked

up and was stunned to see Westley.

 

"Westley, why are you here?" Gabrielle asked, completely surprised.
