Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 327

Westley had already instructed Alvin to investigate the relationship between Gabrielle and the Jones family, and found nothing unusual.

After giving birth to Bryce, Wendy had fallen sick and had to have her uterus removed, so she couldn't have any more kids. When Bryce was four or five years old, he had insisted on having a brother or sister. The Jones couple decided to take him to the orphanage to adopt a child.

They didn't care if it was a boy or girl. As long as the child was chosen by Bryce, they were ready to adopt it.

What happened later was exactly as Gabrielle described. The first child Bryce chose was her, a two-year-old girl. He probably liked her at first sight because she was cute and obedient.

"Gabrielle, do you still remember about the orphanage and anything about your life before you were placed there?" Westley pushed her out of his arms and gently placed his hands on her shoulders, giving her a serious look.

Westley already knew that a person would have no recollection from when they were a two-year-old child.

She would especially have no memory of the time before she came to the orphanage.

"Do I have any memory of my time in the orphanage and my life before I went there?" Gabrielle stared at him in astonishment.

"I don't remember anything. I was too young. When I was a little older, I tried to find out about my parents. However, the old director who had brought me to the orphanage had passed away, and had left no information about my identity behind," Gabrielle said in a helpless voice.

When she was about ten years old, she had been interested in finding out about her biological family. She had gone back to the orphanage to gather information, but the old director had passed away by then, and no one else knew anything about where she had come from.

Every year, the orphanage adopted many abandoned children. Their parents were usually unknown, and it was nearly impossible to find out their true identity.

Gabrielle's case was the same. It was quite obvious that she had been deliberately abandoned by her parents, leaving no trace of her original identity.

Therefore, it would be very difficult to find her real parents, unless they themselves came back to find their lost child.

"Westley, why are you asking this? Why are you so interested in my family background?" Gabrielle was very curious about the reason for his question.

"I was just asking generally. Have you ever thought about finding your real parents?" Westley asked gravely as he struggled to suppress his rising uneasiness.

Gabrielle was agitated by his questions, but calmed down after a few minutes. She looked at Westley with a smile and asked, "If you had a child, for what reason would you abandon it?"

"There is nothing in this world that will induce me to desert my child. I will raise it well," Westley replied firmly.

There was zero possibility of the Morris family abandoning their child. A child born in his family would be naturally raised well by them, and there would be no accidents to prevent it from happening.

"So, you can look at it in this way. Since they abandoned me, it means that in their hearts I was not worthy enough of being loved. And since they don't love me, why should I bother finding them? Even if we do manage to locate each other, we won't try to contact one another. It will only make us feel more embarrassed. That way, we can all live our own lives without knowing each other. Suddenly, I feel like I have been abandoned by the whole world." There was only

a hint of bitterness in her words, like she had come to terms with her fate.

Initially, Gabrielle had really wanted to find her biological parents, but her only source was dead. Besides, if they could toss her into the orphanage, it was quite clear that they didn't want her.

She was an abandoned child. Why would she humiliate herself by trying to track them down? She had decided not to look for them.

"Don't be upset. You still have me. Even if the whole world abandons you, I will always stay by your side." Westley know how depressed she was feeling. He gently held her in his arms because sadness engulfed him when he heard her words. The desolation came from deep within her, and it seemed like every word she said was a stab to his heart.
