Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 62

The atmosphere between them was tensed. Austin was very sure that there was only one person Gabrielle loved very much with all her heart. It was her brother, Bryce, who had no blood connection with her.

If she didn't love Bryce, she would never have agreed to pay for his sin by marrying Westley who everyone knew as the king of hell. This showed how she loved her brother and was ever willing and ready to do anything for his sake.

In that case, Austin would never be able to compete with Bryce. If he had lost Gabrielle to Bryce, he would have easily admitted it. But now, it was Westley whom Austin lost to which made him angry. He was furious that Westley married her without him being aware of it.

"Gabrielle, do you need me to help you leave Westley?" he asked. He knew that he didn't have any right whatsoever to interfere in her business, and presently, there was no way for him to go against Westley.

But then, he couldn't bear to see her suffer. If it was possible, he wanted to hold her tightly in his arms to shield her from every hate in the world.

"I don't need to leave Westley now. Although he is very unfriendly and unwelcoming to me, at least he didn't hurt me. I will do my best to ask the Jones to bring back Bryce and Nellie as quickly as possible so that I can get rid of Westley and live my life in peace. After all, he is your elder cousin and I don't want your relationship as brothers to be shattered because of me," she said seriously.

'What an ignorant girl! Even in a situation as crucial as this, she still had the time to care about other people's brotherhood, ' he thought.

This was one of the reasons he worried so much about her. She preferred putting other people's happiness and comfort before hers.

"Okay, I understand. But if Westley ever tries to intimidate or bully you, Gabrielle, I'll take you away from him right away," he blurted out.

The duo had known each other for quite a long time. He treated her like he would treat his younger sister which made her very emotional.

She never imagined that her relationship with him would turn out this way. She became his elder sister-in-law, while he was her husband's younger cousin.

Even though the relationship between Austin and Westley was sour, she didn't want it to get worse because of her involvement in their lives.

"Austin, can I ask you a question, please?" She thought of a problem.

The scenario that Westley held the arm of another woman with so much affection in the hospital stayed long in her mind. She didn't know so much about Holly, and she knew that it was not a celebrated thing for her to ask about the people who were around Westley from another person.

But still, she just wanted to know if the relationship between Holly and Westley was like what she thought.

Sometimes, the intuition of women was correct. She felt that something going on between Holly and Westley.

But even if the relationship was not simple, it was none of her business. It was Westley's private affair and it would be better if she didn't interfere.

So, should she ask or not?

"Okay, go ahead," he urged her. Austin was looking straight ahead and didn't notice the perplexing expression on her face.

"Why don't you ask your question?" he queried her. Gabrielle still kept silent even after he waited for a long time. He started thinking that something was wrong with her but he couldn't bring her to say what it was.

"Do you know anything about Holly?" Looking a little agitated and tensed, she finally spoke. In her opinion, Austin was Westley's cousin anyway and so he might know a little, if not more, about the women around his cousin. Which was why she decided to ask him.

"Holly? Do you mean Nellie's elder cousin? Austin looked at Gabrielle. He was confused and wondered why she was asking about Holly.

He was not interested in We

stley, let alone the women around him. Austin only knew that when Westley and Helena were together, Holly, who was Helena's younger cousin and a best friend stayed with them very often. So they became friends.
