Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 367

'Westley is probably going back to Morris' mansion along with that woman and the child,' Gabrielle thought to herself.

'They must've been taken in by the Morris family. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the courage to go back there.'

Those thoughts made Gabrielle feel so dispirited that she could hardly breathe. It was as if there was a heavy stone laid upon her chest.

Before she could even become a formal daughter-in-law of the Morris family, Westley had already brought another woman and her child to their family's mansion.

Somehow, it seemed like she, the legal wife, received a very painful slap across the face.

"I sent them back to the Morris' mansion half an hour ago. Mrs. Morris, please get in the car. I'll drive you there," said Alvin as he got off the car and opened the door for her.

Instead of entering the car, Gabrielle shook her head in refusal. "There's no need. I'm not planning to go there, anyway. I just happened to pass by. Besides, there's something else that I must do. Since Westley is already in the Morris' mansion, it's best that I leave now."

'Westley has already brought that woman and her child back to the mansion. Why on earth should I go there, too? To humiliate myself?' she asked in her heart.

She would probably get hurt again upon seeing their warm, happy family-like interaction; just like how she felt at the airport.

'Facing that is the last thing I want to do right now. It's best that I don't go."

"I see. Then, where are you heading, Mrs. Morris? Allow me to escort you there. Please, get in the car. I insist. It's really cold outside. If you get sick or something, it's a dereliction of my duty, and Mr. Morris will spank me for that!" said Alvin. His words rendered her unable to refuse him this time.

Had she left a minute earlier, she wouldn't have run into Alvin.

"Okay, thanks. Just drive me back to my studio." This time, Gabrielle didn't turn him down and got in the car.

Afterwards, Alvin called Westley.

"Mr. Morris, your wife is at the Morris Group's building. Would you like me to drive her to your place right now?" asked Alvin.

As soon as Gabrielle heard that he was asking Westley if he should send her to the mansion, she almost couldn't resist the urge to grab his phone and hang up immediately.

'That was ridiculous! He actually called Westley to ask him if he should take me to Westley's place. What am I supposed to say to Westley in that case?' she wondered.

"Alvin, please, there's no need to do that. I really have something important to do this afternoon," Gabrielle whispered to Alvin after patting him on the shoulder to get his attention.

"I understand, Mr. Morris. I'll be taking your wife to your office at once." Having said that, Alvin disconnected from the call.

Gabrielle cast him a look, which displayed how annoyed she was of him. "Alvin, if you didn't want to give me a ride in the first place, I can just get off and hail a cab. Why did you have to say that to Westley?"

"My apologies, Madame. But Mr. Morris has told me that everything regarding you must be reported to him at the soonest possible time," Alvin replied in a calm and serious voice.

Upon hearing this, Gabrielle fell silent. 'I guess Alvin has to listen to Westley first. He's Westley's assistant, after all,' she thought to herself.

"So, you're taking me to his office now, huh?" Gabrielle heard everything that Alvin said a minute ago. He was indeed taking her to Westley's office.

Truthfully, she was both expectant and worried about this matter.

She had never been to his office before, so she was looking forward to seeing it in person.

"It was your husband's request, Madame. Let's be on our way to his office. He'll be with you soon." Thus, Alvin drove to the underground parking lot shortly.

He then led Gabrielle into the CEO's exclusive elevator, and soon reached the top floor of the company's building.
