Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 86

Westley's demeanor was calmer now. He found Gabrielle vulnerable for people to take advantage or even abuse her. He was very concerned.

"Your wounds will heal much faster with this ointment. Make sure to tell Sophie about this when she arrives. I have more important things to do." Wesley was furious and threw the medications onto the bed.

"Sophie?" It's was the first time that Gabrielle had heard of Sophie.

"Sophie used to work at Morris' Mansion before and is very experienced in taking care of people. That's why I chose her to take good care to you." Westley had to be sure that Gabrielle was well taken care of so that all actions are within the proper bounds and socially acceptable. Sophie was a perfect choice.

"What happened? Everything seemed like a blur. Where is Mr. Smith? I can't remember what happened." Fear had taken over Gabrielle and this was a burden she would carry for the rest of her life.

"I brought you here in my villa called Half Moon Bay so you can rest and re-charge. There is no need to worry about that bastard. Stay here and take good care of yourself." Westley felt somehow she was safe here and could leave her for a while.

Westley felt at ease now, as if a heavy burden was lifted off his shoulders. A sigh of relief took over as he enjoyed a good smoke driving away.

Gabrielle couldn't sleep, contemplating the bitter conversation she had with Westley that affected her deeply. She was hurt.

''Outright hideous!

It hurts!"

Only pain, sorrow, and anguish were all she can think of. Gabrielle knew that nothing good could come out of her relationship with Westley and that only regret and bitterness awaited. She was resigned to her fate.

Gabrielle knew Westley left when she heard the car leave.

It raised suspicion on what this place was. Maybe a place for fornication. Sometimes one's imagination can play tricks on you. The rich people usually are notorious for these illicit ideas mainly because of the excess wealth they control. Westley had a lot of properties all over the world and could do whatever he liked with them.

Feeling paranoid was not what Gabrielle envisioned to take over her life. She just wanted to live like any normal person. And this may sound simple to some but to others, it's a challenge. She then decided to take a bath and forget.

Time sometimes passes by slowly especially when you are enjoying a nice bath. You tend to experience total relaxation or an escape from reality. Then, a knock at the door interrupted her calm.

"I can hear somebody inside the bathroom. Is that you Miss Jones?" Sophie's voice was very loud.

Some people remind us of a person we loved who took care of us in the past. Others make a good first impression and quickly become close to our hearts. Gabrielle discovered these positive traits with Sophie.

"Nice to meet you Miss Jones," Sophie said. Sophie was so eloquent and humble in her introduction. She was received well by all.

"Never call Gabrielle Mrs. Morris!" was Westley's order.

"Found you at last Sophie!" The moment Gabrielle saw her, she felt so aggrieved that she burst into tears. Then she threw herself into Sophie's arms.

"At last! You are with Sophie!"
