Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 517

Westley was right. Dewey Robles, the abbot, and other monks of the temple could only speak Thai. After all, the temple wasn't that large, so not many foreigners came here. Therefore, their English was not very good, and they could only use it for simple greetings.

Thus, when Dewey was asked to answer questions, he basically spoke all in Thai.

Gabrielle looked at Dewey, completely dumbfounded, as her brain couldn't figure out a single word he was saying.

It seemed that she had overestimated the English skill of the abbot. Now their communication didn't work out at all.

Sensing their failed communication plan, she decided to go and ask Westley for help. He was, after all, good at the Thai language. So, if she requested Westley to help her translate, she would be able to understand the abbot's words with ease.

"Excuse me. I don't understand Thai. I have to ask someone to translate for me. Please wait a moment." Gabrielle explained to the abbot in English and then got up to find Westley.

"Do you need my help?" Just when Gabrielle got up to find Westley, a low and cold voice came behind her.

Gabrielle looked up at the man standing behind her and slightly nodded her head in response. "Mr. Sanderson, are you feeling better?" Gabrielle asked, remembering what had happened in the hall.

She remembered the event of the tall man kneeling beside her suddenly fainted with nosebleeds when she was praying in the hall. She handed him a piece of tissue and helped him to a nearby place to get some rest. Along the process, she learned his name was Victor Sanderson and that he was from Ensfield.

Ensfield was where Melissa lived, so Gabrielle had a few friendly feelings towards this man based on that fact.

After that incident, a monk took him to rest to prevent him from experiencing abnormal things again.

"I'm much better. Thank you for your help just now," Victor said as his eyes fixed on Gabrielle's face.

His face showed an indifferent expression, and his eyes were as cold as ice, giving people the impression that they should not get close to him.

Of course, for Gabrielle, when the incident happened, she didn't even have the time to look carefully at the person, let alone sense his indifferent impression or whatsoever. She just realized that someone besides her was probably about to faint, so she just gave him a hand out of an instinctive sense of the body.

"Don't mention it, Mr. Sanderson. I actually didn't do anything. Others would do the same if they were in that circumstance," Gabrielle said with a smile as she looked at Victor. Although this man didn't seem to be easy to get along with, Gabrielle didn't really care much. After all, it was just a coincidental encounter, and there was no way they could possibly meet again in the future.

So, naturally, she couldn't care less about this man or what he thought of her.

"I don't think anyone will be as kind as Miss Jones to help a man they've never seen before," Victor replied indifferently.

He was aware that no one dared to even get close to him, let alone assist him so boldly. After all, everyone in Ensfield thought he was terrible.

"I'm flattered, Mr. Sanderson." Gabrielle showed her content with a smile on her lips.

"Not at all. I'm just telling the truth. If you need anything, tell me, and I will try my best to meet your request no matter what," Victor added in earnest.

For Victor, owing people wasn't his thing, especially something like that.

"No need, thanks though, Mr. Sanderson. I really didn't do..."

"How about this, Miss Jones? I've realized that you can't speak Thai, which I'm familiar with. How about I help you translate it? Is that okay? Considered it as a favor I return for saving my life." Watching Victor abruptly turning a small act of kindness into a life-saving grace, Gabrielle was at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond.

"Well, since you insist, I accept. This time, I will trouble Mr. Sanderson to help me translate, and after that, I think we're even." Gabrielle finally gave in and made a request, understanding it was impolite to keep insisting when the other person was so eager.

Gabrielle didn't like owing others a favor, nor did she like being treated as a ben

efactor inexplicably.

Especially for a man like Victor, who wasn't as simple as he appeared, he must have a certain powerful background.
