Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 540

Westley took Gabrielle to an Italian restaurant for lunch.

They went there a little late, so there were not many people in the whole restaurant.

Thus, they no longer asked for a private room and just picked a table near the window in the hall to sit.

The restaurant was on the third floor of the building in the central area of Bangkok. In addition, the street where the restaurant was located had an antique atmosphere to it as well as vibrant marketplaces. So, as they sat near the window, they could take in the lively scene on the street.

The scenery Gabrielle could see in front of her eyes was very much to her liking.

“Do you like the scenery?” When Westley, who was sitting across from Gabrielle, saw a bright smile on her face, he knew he had made the right decision.

“Yes, I like it. The view of the old block is very beautiful here. We should have come here earlier.” Gabrielle liked it so much in her heat that she replied without any hesitation.

“Let’s have lunch first. If you like it, we can come over next time.” Westley brought her a piece of pizza first and then helped her cut the steak.

It was Gabrielle who asked for pizza, so Westley brought her over to this Italian restaurant.

“The pizza tastes good.” Gabrielle nibbled into the slice, and her mouth was immediately flooded with the flavor of bacon, which was also one of her favorite flavors.

“If you like it, eat more. We’ll go to the jewelry exhibition later, and they will prepare a dinner party, but I’m afraid you won’t be full at all,” Westley said as he knew very well about Gabrielle.

Although the food prepared for the banquet was exquisite, most people had no appetite. After all, everyone attended the banquet mainly not to eat but to socialize.

So basically, not many people really cared about what they ate.

“The jewelry exhibition will be held in the afternoon, and it won’t last long. We will go back as soon as it’s over. It won’t take much time, and I won’t be hungry for a while. If I’m too full now, my belly will bulge. It will look ugly then. After all, I’m wearing a slim dress,” Gabrielle said as she lowered her head and looked down at her dress.

“Gabrielle, it’s you.” Austin was happy when he heard a bright female voice on the other end of the line.

If it was Westley who answered the phone, he would definitely be very unhappy.

“Yes, it’s me. What’s the matter with you?”

“I have received the gift for grandma. What should I do?” Austin went straight to the point.

“Please check whether the gift is complete or not. Then buy a beautiful gift box to package it and give it to grandma. After we go back, I will treat you to dinner,” Gabrielle said happily.

She was kinda surprised to know that the gift had arrived so soon. After all, she had sent the gift from abroad, so she expected the shipping time to be longer.

What she didn’t know was that Westley had paid a high price for fast delivery and had instructed someone to deliver the gift directly. However, the whole process was carried out without Gabrielle’s knowing. Just like that, the gift was quickly delivered to Austin.

“Okay. Let’s have dinner together, Gabrielle. When will you come back? How are you doing there? I miss you so much…”

“I’m here with Gabrielle. Don’t worry about her. Just mind your own business. If there’s nothing else, just hang up. The international calls are very expensive.” Before Austin could finish his sentence, Westley grabbed the phone from Gabrielle and answered in her stead, then hung up as soon as he finished speaking.

‘The international calls are very expensive?’

Gabrielle’s eyelids twitched when she heard this. She might believe it if someone else said it, but it was Westley who said it, so his words made absolutely no sense to her ears.

o rnis Group, al don’t want to w After all, how could the rich and powerful Mr. Morris be short on international phone bills? “Westley, can you stop being so childish? As the CEO of the Morris Group, are you short of money?” Gabrielle looked at Westley in disbelief. “I’m not short of money. But I don’t want to waste money for Austin. He even said he missed you,” Westley said, his tone conveyed a sense of confidence. It sounded like Gabrielle had something to do with Austin. But in fact, they had nothing.

“Okay. But this time, he called me to talk about the gift for grandma. He is helping us. You’re going too far treating him like this. Besides, he is your cousin.” Gabrielle couldn’t help but bring up the topic of his and Austin’s relationship. “I’d rather not have such a cousin. He even wants to steal his cousin-in-law. Do you still think I should treat him well?” Westley threw back a question at Gabrielle. Westley was a domineering and calm man previously. But Gabrielle couldn’t help but wonder why a man of such image had changed into such a childish man. “Westley, in fact, there is really nothing between Austin and me. We are just friends. Now that we are in-laws don’t be so jealous. You don’t want to make yourself feel worse, right?”

Gabrielle reached out and massaged the stiff area of the man’s brows to relieve tension while also trying to keep him from thinking too much. Westley had already had a lot of things to worry about. If he got involved in something else, it would make him even more tired. That was something Gabrielle didn’t

want to happen to him. “Gabrielle, it’s because I love you so much.” Westley reached out and grabbed her hand in his palm. His palm was very big and warm. When he held her hand lightly like this, Gabrielle could directly feel the temperature of his palm and his full of love for her. And that was all she wanted. “I love you, too. That’s why you have to be more confident in yourself and me. You should believe that we can’t accommodate anyone else except each other. A person’s heart is very small that it can only accommodate one person. So, since you live in my heart, I won’t let anyone else live in,” Gabrielle said earnestly. “I believe what you said. From now on, I can only live there alone. Even if we have children in the future, you can’t let them compete with me,” Westley said in his overbearing tone.
