Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 458

Gabrielle set the bowl down and calmly looked at Lance after forcing herself to swallow half a bowl of porridge.

"Lance, I don't have the habit of treating strangers as friends and telling them everything. Maybe Bain and Rose are your friends, but they are not my friends yet."

Gabrielle spoke in a calm tone.

Lance naturally could understand the meaning of Gabrielle's words, and he also didn't want to push her to be friends with Rose and be honest with her.

To be honest, everyone here was good at playing double-face.

Because for them to survive in such an environment, they had to learn to live with a lot of masks.

"Gabrielle, I don't mean to blame you. I just want to tell you that this place is safe. Yes, people's hearts are complicated, and we are not familiar with them. So, it's normal for us to hide our true feelings. I don't blame you. I just care about you. I'm the only person you can rely on here after all." Lance's tone conveyed his seriousness.

Hearing this, Gabrielle felt a little relieved. Then a thought flashed across her mind, and she hesitated for a moment before speaking out. "Lance, there is no signal here, right?"

Hearing the sudden question, Lance was slightly taken aback. But he naturally knew what Gabrielle was thinking by asking such a question.

"Gabrielle, do you remember the satellite phone I gave you before?" Lance asked.

"Yes, I remember. It's in my bag upstairs," Gabrielle answered. The satellite phone was in her coat pocket before, but she took it out after taking a shower.

"So, you mean, there really is no mobile phone signal in this place, only satellite signal, right?" Gabrielle said as she comprehended what Lance was trying to clarify with his question.

Lance nodded in response and added, "That's right. You have to keep your satellite phone with you all the time. If we lose contact, I can find you through it."

"I see, Lance."

Only then did Gabrielle understand that it wasn't that the mobile phone signals were blocked here but that there was no signal at all.

"Do you want to call Westley?" Lance voiced his guess, and it was correct.

Gabrielle decided to follow here with Lance without giving it much thought. She even passed up the opportunity to spend her first Christmas with Westley. She couldn't help but feel a stab of regret in her heart now that she was stuck in this situation.

"Lance, I'm very upset." Gabrielle spoke out her feeling.

The moment uneasiness grew in her heart, the first person she could think of was Westley. Because he was like a tranquilizer for both her heart and soul. She would feel at ease whenever she heard his voice.

"Gabrielle, don't worry. Eat breakfast first. After that, let's go to the hospital to see Bryce." Lance comforted Gabrielle.

That was the only thing he could do for Gabrielle right now.

Gabrielle gave her thoughts a rest, knowing there was nothing they could do at this moment. After the two of them had breakfast, Gabrielle packed her things in her bag, and they went to the hospital.

As soon as they arrived at the hospital, they went straight to the ward. Inside the room, Bryce was still lying, motionless.

Seeing Bryce in that state right in front of her eyes, no matter how hard she tried to keep her calm, Gabrielle couldn't help but feel worried.

"You two came so early. Have you had breakfast?" Gabrielle was immersed in her thoughts, so when she heard the voice of Doctor Maniac behind her, she was startled. When she looked in the direction of the sound, she saw the presence of a young doctor.

"Good morning, Doctor Maniac. We've had breakfast. Rose specially sent us the food. They're delicious," Gabrielle responded simply.

Doctor Maniac'

s lips curled up when he heard this. "Delicious? Be careful. She might poison you."
