Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 548

The atmosphere in the car was so heavy that Gabrielle felt suffocated. Of course, she knew how angry Westley must be feeling now. Yet, he had been holding back his anger, trying not to vent it on her.

Gabrielle understood why he was pissed. After all, she had rushed out recklessly to save the child while the bullets were flying all around. She almost got shot in the process after all.

However, he couldn't even bear to scold her because he loved her so much.

"Westley, don't be angry anymore. I won't ask such stupid questions again or do such stupid things next time, alright? I promise I will cherish my life from now on so that we can be together for the rest of our lives." Unable to endure the tension any longer, Gabrielle coaxed Westley with sweet words.

Of course, Westley obviously realized her intention, yet her sweet words worked on him.

He wrapped her hand in his and stroked it back and forth, finally letting out a long sigh. "Gabrielle, you promised to be with me for the rest of our lives. You can't just break your promise. How should I get by if you leave me halfway? Do you think I can get by without you by my side?"

His voice was very low as he spoke out his thought, but the words were like needles stabbing directly into Gabrielle's heart, making her almost instantly want to cry.

Her heart felt heavy and it made her aware of how important she was to him.

"Westley, I was wrong. I won't do it again, okay?" She looked into his eyes and promised.

"You are obviously lying. Gabrielle, I know that you will still choose to save that child if anything like this happens again. Am I right?" Westley's tone was still gentle as he pointed out. But it could be seen that he was trying his best to suppress his anger by his clenched jaw.

Gabrielle was about to answer what he wanted. However, she hesitated for a moment as she thought of that child sitting on a pile of broken glass just now, crying and screaming in pain. At last, she couldn't bring herself to deny.

She thought that even if the time rotated back to that time, she would still choose to save the child.

"Westley, I..."

"Never mind. You don't have to answer this question because I know your answer. " Westley lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. Then, he retreated while sighing in distress.

How could he not know what his wife was thinking at the moment? He knew the best what kind of person his wife was.

She was such a kind woman. There was no way she could just stand there and watch as a child was about to die in front of her eyes.

Even when she was fully aware that she might lose her life if she chose to save the child, she would unhesitatingly choose to do so.

"Westley, I'm sorry. I know there might be someone else to save that child, but it could be late and I can't just turn a blind eye when there is something I can do. She is just a child of about four or five years old and has just begun to step into the world," Gabrielle muttered helplessly while leaning into his arms.

"Gabrielle, I don't blame you. Call me selfish, but I just don't want you to sacrifice yourself for saving others. The child maybe an angel in your eyes, but in my heart, you are my angel and there is no way I can live if you leave before me." Westley admitted exhaustedly, patting her on the back.

"I know. I promise you that I will protect myself before saving others and I won't be reckless again, okay? I will be with you until the end." Gabrielle raised her head and promised seriously. She realized that she shouldn't be so willful like before in the future since she had someone who cared about her so much now.

"Gabrielle, you have no idea, but my heart almost stopped beating when I saw you rushing away like that just now. I can't imagine how my life would be like if you disappear. Remember, I saved your life once and you owe me for that. You can't do such a dangerous thing again without my permission." Westley's voice was soft, but his words were firm and demanding.

Even though there was so much fire in his chest right now, how could he really be angry with her, let alone scold her? He would rather be angry to death alone.

"I understand what you mean. I promise I won't ever be reckless again." Gabrielle's heart immediately softened as she listened to his gentle and soothing voice. She obediently lay in his arms and didn't want to move at all.

How she wished they could stay like this forever without any danger or problem.

"Do your knees hurt very much? Just a moment and we'll arrive at the hospital soon." Westley patted her back gently.

"I'm okay. It doesn't hurt." Gabrielle shook her head slightly against his torso. Her knees felt painful at first, but t

hey just felt numb now. She guessed that it was probably because she was lying in Westley's embrace.

For her, as long as the misunderstandings and the resentment between them were cleared up, her injury was nothing.
