Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 598

Just a few moments after Gabrielle and Westley's arrival at the villa, the Campbell Family's bodyguards came bearing several well-packed boxes.

"Mr. Morris, these are gifts from Victor. They are addressed to Mrs. Morris. Are we going to take them?" The bodyguard had a questioning look on his face as he gazed at the couple sitting on the couch.

It was quite a dumb thing to ask. Gabrielle was sitting right in front of him.

"Should we, Gabrielle?" Westley turned to look at his wife and asked.

His meeting with Victor earlier today was quite intense. Despite that, Westley did not let himself lose his temper in front of Victor. He just wasn't worth the trouble.

The meeting was already utterly vehement. Victor sending Gabrielle presents was just adding fuel to the fire. It was too much.

"Well… Honey, do you think I should? If you're not comfortable with me taking it, we'll have someone return it," Gabrielle replied as she gazed at Westley with a wide grin on her face.

"Mrs. Morris, the courier mentioned that Mr. Sanderson had gone back to Ensfield. If you don't want it, just throw it away. There's no need to return it," the bodyguard replied.

Gabrielle smiled at the sound of his words. She turned to look at Westley.

"Honey, did you hear that? He went back to Ensfield. If we return the gifts, wouldn't it be inconvenient to send everything all the way over there?" She turned to look at her husband with inquiring eyes.

It was, indeed, quite inconvenient. On top of that, Westley would have to pay for the courier's fee.

"Didn't Victor mention that you could just throw the presents away if you don't want them? Let's just get rid of everything. Problem solved," Westley said with a calm voice.

"Honey, what's your final decision? Do we throw everything away?" he asked.

Gabrielle knew exactly what was going on in her husband's mind. She smiled. "Alright, then. Let's just get rid of them. Let's have these disposed somewhere far. Out of sight, out of mind!"

Their actions weren't unplanned.

It was awful of Westley to test her. He intended to see how she would react to his suggestion of throwing the presents away. The truth was, she and Victor had nothing going on. It was totally unnecessary to spite Westley through accepting Victor's gifts.

After all, her husband was evidently the jealous type. He would miraculously materialize from thin air once he had caught wind of a potential threat. Especially more so when a man had attempted to get real close with Gabrielle. Westley's cold, intimidating aura would certainly drive anyone away.

"Didn't you hear what my wife said? She wants everything gone. Take these away now!" Westley commanded. His voice was dominating.

In hesitation, the bodyguard turned to look at Gabrielle. The gifts were for her, after all. It was her decision to make.

"Mrs. Morris, should I take them away?" the bodyguard inquired.

"Yeah. Get them out of here," she answered as she made a gesture of tossing things out.

"Didn't you hear her? The sight of those things is irritating," Westley exclaimed coldly.

"Take them away before I start regretting it," Gabrielle said as she closed her eyes. She sounded reluctant.

"Gabrielle, I'm not joking. I'm getting rid of these," Westley couldn't help but tease her. There was what seemed to be a look of resentment on Gabrielle's face.

"Honey… Can we open the presents before throwing them away?" Gabrielle pleaded. She held Westley's hand in an attempt to please him.

Her deliriously needy voice made it impossible for Westley to refuse her requ

est. Besides, there was nothing wrong with taking a peek.
