On the second day, Wilson and Bonnie came to meet with Westley and Gabrielle. In fact, they arrived at Bangkok three days ago. Even though they wanted to visit them sooner, they had to go directly to the branch office of the Campbell Family in here to deal with some business.
This time, they mainly travelled here in order to deal with the business of the branch company as well as to see how Gabrielle and others were doing.
Seeing that Gabrielle and Westley were healed and happier, the two of them felt relieved.
Gabrielle gasped in surprise once she saw them. "Wilson, Bonnie? What brings you here?" At the sight of them, Gabrielle was so happy that she ran forward to hug Bonnie excitedly.
"We come here to deal with the business of the branch company here. We know you two are both injured. So, after we finished work, Wilson and I directly come over to see how you both are doing," Bonnie explained softly with a smile on her face.
In fact, Wilson had told Westley about their arrival before they came here. However, Westley didn't tell Gabrielle on purpose since he wanted to give her a pleasant surprise.
As expected, Gabrielle was overjoyed to see Bonnie to the extent that the joy on her face had never faded since they arrived here.
"Well, are you done with dealing with the work here?" Gabrielle asked as she looked at Bonnie happily.
"Yes, we have already finished. Actually, we have been in Bangkok for three days." Bonnie smiled before scanning Gabrielle from head to toe with a look of concern on her face.
"Gabrielle, Westley, we are very glad to know that you two are much better now. I was so worried about you when I saw the pictures of your injuries before. I have been planning to come and see you long ago." Bonnie let out a relieved breath, holding Gabrielle's hand.
Seeing the photos of Gabrielle and Westley being hurt, Bonnie felt very anxious and worried. She had always considered Gabrielle as her sister from the bottom of her heart. How could she not feel sorry for Gabrielle when she saw the state she was in at that time?
Now, since she saw that they were almost recovered, she could rest assured now.
"Bonnie, we're fine now and it's all because of you. Thank you for sending Campbell Family's men for help. Otherwise, I don't dare to imagine what would have happened to Westley and me." Even now, Gabrielle was reluctant to recall the events at that time. Those memories still made her feel pain all over her body.
Bonnie comforted Gabrielle, "You don't need to thank me for things like this. Didn't I say that we are a family? Naturally, your business is our business. Now that you are here, you should have a good rest here. Since this is the territory of the Campbell Family, no one dares to make trouble here."
"Thanks for everything, Bonnie. I know that this is not a good time for us to go back home like this. Grandma will be scared if she sees the state we are in. By the way, where is Tammy?" Gabrielle looked behind Wilson and Bonnie, but didn't see Tammy. She couldn't help feeling curious why Tammy didn't come along with them.
"Tammy is back at home in Antawood. Since we mainly came here for work, it's not convenient to take her with us. Besides, I don't want her to be known by too many people, you know," Bonnie explained.
Gabrielle was quick-witted and so, she immediately understood what Bonnie meant. After all, the Campbell Family had too many enemies, and Tammy was a descendent of the family, which meant the less she was known to others, the safer she would be.
"I understand it's for the sake of Tammy's safety. You are doing the right thing. After all, she's still young and she should be well-protected. You made the right decision to let her stay in Antawood." Gabrielle expressed her understanding.
"Right. We took time to carefully think about this arrangement for her." Bonnie chuckled.
"But I really miss Tammy. It's been a while since I met her." Gabrielle pouted. She liked this little niece of hers very much as she was so cute and lovely.
"Tammy also misses you, too. Before we came here, she asked me where you guys are and why you don't come to play with her. She even asked pitifully if she hasn't been obedient enough." Speaking of this, Bonnie couldn't help laughing at her daughter's silliness. Her laugh gave off the tenderness of a mother.
"Oh, poor baby. We must bring a gift to Tammy when we go back and make it up to her." Gabrielle coul
dn't wait to go back as she wanted to see Tammy so bad.
Bonnie laughed and agreed. "That's a must. But you'd better have a good rest these days. You need to recover first so that you can go back earlier. Wilson and I have also decided to stay here for a few more days. During these times, whenever I came to the branch company, I never had the chance to properly wander and enjoy the city. Now that Wilson is also here with me, I will wander around with him for a few more days. Maybe if you recover soon, we can even go back together."
