Chapter 33 So Hypocritical

Westley went right into the study as soon as he stepped into the house. He remained there the whole morning and displayed no sign of leaving before lunchtime.

Gabrielle had spent the whole morning in the living room with Miley, chatting and drinking

“Madam, Mrs. Morris, lunch is ready. Please go to the dining room.” Neil appeared to inform them that lunch was ready.

Miley was pleased to hear Gabrielle being addressed in this manner, but Gabrielle felt uneasy.

But then Gabrielle realized Miley wouldn’t be here for long. As long as Miley was happy. she wouldn’t mind.

“Where is Westley?” Miley inquired as she cast a glance at Neil.

“Mr. Morris said he still had a few e-mails to deal with, so he wouldn’t be able to join you for lunch. He said that you and Mrs. Morris don’t need to wait for him. He will eat later.” Neil had just returned to the study to inform Westley of the upcoming lunch. That was the response he received from Westley.

But Neil was well aware that while Westley was swamped with paperwork, he also wished to avoid Miley and Gabrielle.

“He is at home now. Why doesn’t he want to have lunch with me? Does he dislike me?” Miley kept a straight face as she looked at the butler. 1

‘I just relayed what Mr. Morris said to me, Neil grumbled to himself. “I’m just a housekeeper.’

“Gabrielle, go, ask Westley to have lunch with us.” Miley instantly tasked Gabrielle with this tough role.

Gabrielle was actually relieved that Westley declined to have lunch with them. She hadn’t expected Miley to ask her to go get him. It was too soon for her to be happy. 5

“Maybe it’s not a good idea, Grandma. Westley is busy. When he’s working, he doesn’t like to be interrupted. It will affect his work.” The truth was, she didn’t want to talk to Westley.

Being thrown out was not really a huge deal. What was worse, he might strangle her on the spot.

“From what I’ve heard, if one does not eat well, his IQ will drop. If Westley continues to

be so focused on his work that he refuses to eat, I believe he should resign as CEO of the Morris Group as soon as possible. I’IT! concerned that the group will be assigned to a member with a low 10,” Miley voiced calmly. 1

Gabrielle was taken aback by her words. She was really Westley’s grandmother. She rebuked her grandson without any care.

“Grandma, I’ll go ask him to join us for lunch now.”

Gabrielle hurried to the study.

She was about to knock on the door once she reached the study, when her phone suddenly buzzed.

She saw on the screen that it was a message from Mia.

“Gabrielle, I’ve compiled all of my brother’s information for you. Have you read it yet?

If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I swear I’ll tell you everything I know.”

Gabrielle’s mind was filled with just one thought: Mia was so excited for her brother to marry. Was she worried that her brother wouldn’t be able to find a suitable partner?

It was easy for a man like Micheal to marry There were a bunch of ladies waiting in line for him to choose from.

“Gabrielle, you are welcome to speak with my brother in person. It will be preferable to staring at a pile of dull numbers. It’s beneficial to get to know each other by interaction.

Didn’t you say you’d invite my brother to dinner to thank him for saving your life? Have you made plans for dinner? When and where would you eat? If you don’t have any idea, I can recommend you some places. Do you want to have a look?” 3

Mia proceeded to enthusiastically suggest places. She wasn’t embarrassed if Gabrielle didn’t respond at all.

Gabrielle could tell she was a talkative girl based on her pretty, lovely face and warm, smart eyes. She realized she had been right all along

Gabrielle didn’t have to reply to Mia. She was

capable of answering her own questions.

Her charm was endearing. It was easy to get along with her.

So it was hard to believe that such a cheerful girl would leap off a building for a guy. particularly if the man was a playboy like

Cayden.

This was, after all, her own private issue. Gabrielle had no business interfering as an outsider.

“Mia, could you recommend me a restaurant?” She sent her a WeChat message.

Gabrielle didn’t eat out too much. The majority of the restaurants she and Sloane visited were small ones. She could choose a better restaurant if she were to invite Micheal

for dinner.

She’d spare herself a lot of trouble if Mia could recommend one.

“Okay, then. I’ll see to it that both you and Micheal will be satisfied. When are you going to have dinner together?”

“Tomorrow night?”

She intended to visit the studio the next day. She would have lunch with her coworkers and dinner with Micheal in the evening,

“Not a problem. I’ll notify you once I made a reservation.’

Gabrielle exhaled a sigh of relief. One of her concerns had been solved. She planned to return the check to Micheal after they had dinner together. Maybe they wouldn’t meet

again in the future.

Gabrielle didn’t want to be involved with so many men, and Mia was enthusiastic about having her and Micheal together.

This was a bad idea,

She would tell Micheal she was married in person tomorrow to avoid any misunderstanding.

She looked at the study’s door after putting away her phone. The door opened just as she was about to take a deep breath and knock.

With an icy expression on his face, Westley, tall and straight, stood at the door and glared coldly at Gabrielle, causing her to stiffen in fear.

“What are you doing skulking around the study door?” he questioned coldly.

“L… I came to ask you to lunch. I was about to knock on the door when you walked out. What a coincidence!” Gabrielle smiled awkwardly.

Well, this woman really didn’t blush when she lied.

Inside, he’d been watching the surveillance

video. For more than five minutes, the woman stood at the door, fiddling with her cell phone. She had no plans of knocking the door at all

She was probably here because his grandmother compelled her to come to ask him to eat. She’d rather play on her phone for a bit than invite him to lunch right away. She was adamant on not doing so.

That was why he was eager to open the door, only to be greeted by Gabrielle’s hypocritical smile.

She was disgustingly hypocritical.

A suspicious Westley said, “Gabrielle, were you reluctant to come and invite me to lunch?”

Well, she was anxious about coming here, so what should she do?

She couldn’t say no to Westley and Miley’s demands. She had to do everything they asked her to do.

“That is not something I am unwilling to do. Let’s go to lunch now that you’ve come out. Grandma is also expecting us.” Gabrielle had no choice but to smile, no matter how reluctant she was.

for a response, Westley proceeded to head to the dining room.
