Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 562

Westley noticed the worried expression on Gabrielle's face. She was getting too anxious.

"Don't worry, Gabrielle. I've called the best brain doctor to treat the child. I'm hopeful, he'll wake up soon." Westley tried to comfort her. He didn't want to see her so disturbed and upset.

"I know you're doing your best. Come on then. Let's go back." Gabrielle was aware that she was becoming more and more sentimental in recent time. It was not what she wanted. She wanted to become a more rational and practical person.

Sometimes she wanted to be cold and cruel like the others. In the past, Gabrielle could face everything rationally, but now she had changed and become more irrational. Besides, she knew that she had already caused a lot of trouble to Westley. She realized it was time for her to reflect on herself.

As his wife, she always ended up creating chaos or trouble for Westley. It was like she had never done anything right.

"I think I'm too useless for anything," Gabrielle whispered. She thought she had said it softly but it was loud enough to be heard by Westley.

Upon hearing her words, Westley immediately realized that she was blaming herself for everything.

"You're my wife. You don't need to be perfect or be capable of handling everything. There should be few things you can't do. If my wife can do everything and is a strong woman, I will not get a chance to do anything for her. In that case, I will end up thinking that I'm useless!" Westley said gently, trying to explain the situation. He wanted her to realize that she was just a woman.

And he wanted her to know that as a man, he wanted to be the one person on whom his wife could rely. He'd have loved it, if she would rely on him for everything. Only then he would feel that he was more useful. He wanted to the permanent problem-solver in his wife's life. He wanted her to reach out to him for anything in future.

Whenever Westley coaxed and comforted her, Gabrielle's mood would change. She would feel happy that he cared so much about her feelings.

"I understand that now. Shall we go back now?" Gabrielle calmed down. She smiled softly and seemed happier.

"Okay. Let's go back now. So, tell me, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll prepare it for you!" They felt a bit lighter and Westley started the car.

"Well, I want to eat lamb kebabs. Westley, let's have some drinks and a barbecue tonight. What do you say?" Gabrielle wanted to just forget everything and have a little peaceful time eating and drinking with Westley.

After expressing her choice instantly, she regretted it. She felt she shouldn't have made such a request. After all, a rich man like Westley often ate in the Michelin restaurants or five-star hotels. Why would he like to eat kebabs?

"Of course! Let's go to the supermarket. We'll need to buy some ingredients." Westley instantly nodded in agreement, which surprised Gabrielle. She had expected that her suggestion would be downrightly rejected by Westley. She didn't expect him to agree without any second thoughts or hesitation.

"Okay! Let's go shopping then." Gabrielle's face completely lit up. She was suddenly filled with excitement.

They went to the supermarket and bought a lot of meat for making kebabs. They invited the chef of a restaurant to cook for them while they rested. Gabrielle and Westley just wanted to eat peacefully.

"Gabrielle, the food is ready. Come now." Westley handed the roasted meat to Gabrielle once she settled down at the table.

Gabrielle took it and had a big bite. Though it was hot, she couldn't stop herself.

Westley took a small bite. He was surprised as it tasted really good.

"So? Is it delicious?" Gabrielle looked at Westley. She was feeling proud at her suggestion.

Looking at the way he was enjoying the food, Gabrielle was sure that he was liking it. Soon enough, she felt that she did the right thing by suggesting a barbecue tonight.

"Mmm. It tastes really good." Westley seldom ate such food, but he was enjoying it now. He never knew it tasted so good.

"I don't think there is anyone in the world who doesn't like barbecue. If he doesn't like it even after eating it once, then it means that he hasn't tasted a good barbecued food." Without any hesitation, Gabrielle opened a can of beer and handed it to Westley.
