Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 520

After placing their dinner orders, Gabrielle and Westley went back to their room to take a bath. Inside the big, spacious bathroom was a shower area with walls of frosted glass, twin sinks, and a bathtub huge enough to accommodate two people. The bathtub was sitting beside a large window that allowed a view of the beautiful outside scenery but not of the bathroom from the outside. Gabrielle and Westley soaked in the tub as they enjoyed their terrific view.

 

For the first time since they arrived at the resort, they were able to breathe easily. They enjoyed the peace and comfort of each other's company as the warm, soapy water of their bath washed their worries away.

 

"Can you believe that view? It's so beautiful. It's like we're in a dream," Gabrielle commented, looking out the window.

 

Outside, there were no tall trees or buildings. It was just a carpet of forest that stretched for miles shrouded with rain and mist under a dark, starless sky. It was its own kind of divine.

 

"Yes, it is beautiful." Sitting in the bathtub beside Gabrielle, Westley followed her gaze.

 

The stunning view outside began to melt away his woes.

 

Of course Gabrielle's company had also contributed significantly. After all, Gabrielle had always been his calm in the storm.

 

"Let's just rest and take our stay here as our holiday, okay? Don't be so nervous now, Westley. Nothing will happen to us." Gabrielle leaned over and kissed him.

 

"Okay. Didn't you say you were starving? Let's finish up so that we can go eat." Westley heard some noise downstairs, so he guessed that the housekeeper was already done preparing their dinner.

 

"Well, I do smell something delicious." Gabrielle took a deep breath through her nose.

 

"We're three floors up from the dining area. How could you smell the food?" Westley teased, pinching her nose.

 

"Are you trying to say that I have the same keen sense of smell as Blackboo's?" Gabrielle shook off his hand and narrowed her eyes at him.

 

"No. I'm saying your sense of smell is keener than Blackboo's." Before Gabrielle could slap him on the shoulder, Westley gave her a peck on the lips, got up, and grabbed some towels. He tossed one to her and then patted himself dry with another one.

 

Then, they put on bathrobes and went downstairs. The housekeeper had already set the table, and the food looked amazing.

 

"Mr. and Mrs. Morris, dinner is ready. Enjoy," the housekeeper said warmly when he saw Gabrielle and Westley coming.

 

Westley pulled out a chair for Gabrielle. "Thank you, Mr. Morris."

 

"This is everything you ordered. If you need anything else, just call me. I'm leaving now. You two enjoy your meal."

 

After that, the housekeeper turned on his heel and left.

 

"Have some soup first." Westley filled a bowl of tom yum soup for Gabrielle.

 

Gabrielle took a sip. The taste was a perfect balance of sweet and sour, and it was really good.

 

"Wow, this is some authentic Thai soup. You should try it," Gabrielle said excitedly.

 

Although she had eaten Thai food before, she had never had such a delicious bowl of tom yum. She was so thrilled that she could not wait for Westley to try.

 

Westley took a sip of the soup and found that Gabrielle was right. It really was good. No wonder Gabrielle was so satisfied.

 

"It's amazing, isn't it? Is it better than the one we had before?" Gabrielle looked at Westley with joy in her eyes.

 

It had to be said that the soup was really good, and it was indeed better than what they had had before.
