Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 568

Despite the fact that Nathan appeared unserious, he still managed to comport himself with grace and elegance. But Denton's straightforward eyes unsettled her.

Hence, it was best for Gabrielle to have nothing to do with such an individual.

"You are Ms. Jones, aren't you?" Wilma Sanderson asked Gabrielle out of the blue.

Wilma maintained a penetrating gaze. Her countenance looked particularly stern. Gabrielle was shocked to see her.

"Yes, I am Gabrielle. Is there something you want me to do for you, Mrs. Sanderson?"

Gabrielle returned Wilma's stern steady gaze. Although she was a bit diffident.

"A lady had come to visit Nathan before." Wilma asked her if she was the one.

Gabrielle replied in the affirmative, "Yes, it's me. But I was denied access by the bodyguards. So I left." It was not her intention to blame others. She had no right to act in such a manner.

"Sorry about that, Ms. Jones. Nathan needs a serene and quiet environment to rest. As a result, guards are constantly positioned outside. They work around the clock to make sure nobody gets close," Wilma replied before asking a question. "What kind of relationship is between you and Nathan?"

As a mother and member of the Sanderson Family, she must not allow her son to be seen with a woman who seemed so ordinary, let alone have any form of relationship with her.

After all, Nathan already had someone he was going to get married to. Her name was Jasmine.

The couple had been engaged for a long time. No one would just come between both of them in order to destroy what they shared.

"I think you must have misunderstood something, Mrs. Sanderson. Nathan and I met each other in Bangkok while Ms. Glyn went with me to the jewelry exhibition. My teacher introduced us to one another. We are nothing but friends. I am a married woman who will not do anything to betray my husband." Gabrielle spoke to her with fervency and vigor.

Wilma was a bit surprised. 'Who would have guessed that this young lady has been married for a while?' she thought to herself.

'Here she is demonstrating her loyalty to her husband.'

"Did you say you are married?" Denton was unable to hide his astonishment. He stared at Gabrielle.

"Yes, I am married," Gabrielle said emphatically.

"Honestly, you look rather underage if you ask me. I wonder what the reason behind your choice might be. Were you forced into marriage against your will?" Denton asked Gabrielle in confusion.

This was because when one looked at Gabrielle, she had the appearance of a little girl.

"Are you really telling the truth?" Denton asked in an attempt to be thorough.

"There is no point lying to you, is there? If you are still doubtful though, go on and ask Jonathan and Ms. Glyn about me. They know the truth." As a matter of fact, Gabrielle was not having a good time and didn't want to explain too much about her marriage. But somehow she could sense Denton's disbelief, especially when Wilma looked at her. It was as if she was going to seduce Nathan. This kind of unfounded suspicion was enough to make anyone feel very uncomfortable.

"Gabrielle is truly married. There isn't an iota of doubt about it. She just came to see Nathan because they are ordinary friends." Jonathan hurried to explain in Gabrielle's favor. He tried to convince Mrs. Sanderson having noticed that she had become curious and suspicious.

Jonathan was not someone willing to speak blindly for his future in-law even if Jasmine would marry Nathan in the future.

"Since that is the case, I don't doubt it anymore. Ms. Jones, kindly accept my heartfelt apologies with respect to the misunderstanding. It was not done deliberately," Wilma said generously. She acted as if it wasn't in her character to be unnecessarily proud and arrogant to the extent of

refusing to accept the fact that anyone was capable of making a mistake.

"It's nothing. I know you are doing this for the sake of Mr. Sanderson." Gabrielle could totally understand Wilma's feelings. Actually it was not new to her.
