Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 684

 

Gabrielle wanted to leave, but the girls stopped her. They grabbed Gabrielle's hands and pulled her back.

 

"Since you're already here, Gabrielle, why don't] you join us for a drink? We're all buddies and

 

members of the same club, after all."

 

"Exactly! It’s rare for us to meet here. Since we have the opportunity now, why waste it?"

 

“What do you say, Jax?"

 

Gabrielle's body stiffened. She wasn't used to having strangers touch her.

 

Even if these people were members of the photography association, she didn't know them well enough.

 

Getting held by them like this was uncomfortable.

 

“I'm really sorry, but I'll have to pass. My family i waiting for me. | should go meet them.” Gabrielle shrugged them off but failed. 

 

The two girls were already drunk. Both of them held Gabrielle down with surprising strength. It was as if she was being kidnapped.

 

"Oh, that'll be fine! I'm sure your family would let you stay here for the night. Just call them and say you're partying with us. I'm sure they would understand."

 

“We promise that Jax will send you back home safely. We are schoolmates and in the same club for

 

four years, yet you never hung out with us."

 

It was true. Gabrielle was very aloof during college,

 

Hearing their comments, she felt obligated to stay. Not to mention Jax was hosting it.

 

"O-okay... then let me... let me call my family first, then I'll come join you..." Gabrielle felt defeated and

 

decided to call Westley to tell him that she would be gone for a bit longer. She wanted to tell him not

 

to come so he wouldn't startle her schoolmates.

 

“Okay, but you'll hang out with us, won't you?"

 

“Go on, call them."

 

The girls were giving her an expectant stare. Gabrielle had no choice but to take out her phone and send Westley a message.

 

She informed him that her schoolmates were barbecuing in the resort and that she would stay for a

 

while before going back. It would be better for him not to appear there.
