Lock You In My Heart Chapter 427

He asked her whether she liked Melissa or not. Of course, she liked her. She could give him a reply without any hesitation.

“Westley, I remember telling you earlier. I like Ms. Glyn a lot. She is like a goddess for me. So, this question is really unnecessary for you to ask,” Gabrielle looked at him and said with a soft smile.

It was clear that she really liked Melissa. There was no doubt about it now.

Melissa was the wife of the eldest son of the Walker family in Ensfield. The Walker family and the Morris family had always been at odds with each other. Though the two families lived in different cities, they were always against each other.

Of course, it was a matter between two families, and had nothing to do with them. So, he felt it should not be blamed on them. And so there was no need to let Gabrielle know about it.

Otherwise, she would feel uncomfortable and think too much about it unnecessarily. And it would also affect her study.

It was a well-known fact that Gabrielle really liked jewelry designing. And as Melissa was a high authority in this field, Gabrielle could learn something from her.

Westley couldn’t stop her from learning from one of the masters in the field. And he knew that it was a rare opportunity that had come in her life.

“Gabrielle, so you really do like her a lot.” Westley looked at her calmly. There was a glint of worry in his eyes, which was hidden deeply. He wasn’t sure if he should let Gabrielle know about the thing that was on his mind.

However, he believed that it did not matter how he felt, because it would not be a big deal for Gabrielle.

“Yes, I do like her. You can say, I adore her!” Gabrielle said with a radiating smile.

She looked at him for a few moments. “Westley, what’s wrong?” She was able to catch the seriousness on his face and it instantly worried her.

She was afraid that she had said something which displeased Westley.

“Nothing! I was just thinking that if a master of jewelry designing is coming to Antawood and giving you such an opportunity to learn, you must cherish it. I feel extremely happy for you.” Westley raised his hand and gently caressed her hair.

Westley didn’t have much to say about Melissa. He decided that as long as Gabrielle learned something from her, everything would be fine.

As a matter of fact, she was going to be a teacher for Gabrielle. She wouldn’t be able to control Gabrielle’s private life.

“You are right. I was also thinking the same. In the past, it was always difficult to see Ms. Glyn. This time, she can come to Antawood and be the tutor of our training class. I am really excited for it.” Gabrielle was extremely happy and eager.

“Well, time to go. I’ll drive you back to the company,” Westley said.

Gabrielle gave him a big smile. Her smiling face was so charming and beautiful. “Thank you, Westley.”

“Gabrielle! You don’t need to be so polite to me.” Westley touched her hair gently.

“By the way, Ms. Glyn invited me to have lunch with her. She will be going back to Ensfield in the afternoon. She won’t return until the New Year’s day, when our training class begins.” Gabrielle’s face was full of joy. She didn’t want to let go of any chance to meet and learn from Melissa.

“Anything for you dear, as long as you are happy.” Westley turned the engine on and started the car. For him, as long as Gabrielle was happy, everything would be fine.

Other things were unimportant for him.

“The training classes will be for about three months. I will be very busy at that time. Maybe, I will not have much time for you. Will that make you unhappy?” Gabrielle had a general idea of the classes and training sessions. But specific timings and schedule would depend on the circumstances.

To avoid issues later, she needed to give Westley a heads up. She didn’t want him to be unhappy or feel neglected. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“No worries, as long as you stay in Antawood. It’s a good chance for you. Why would I be unhappy? Don’t think too much, Gabrielle. Just focus on your business and dreams!” Westley said to her,

while he kept driving.

Although his words were not very romantic, he showed his love and care for her. That was enough for Gabrielle.

Westley parked the car at the same place as before. Gabrielle was ready to get off. Although he wanted to drop her near the gate of the company, he didn’t want to force his decisions or wishes on her. He would do it only if she wanted him to.

The relationship they shared was slowly getting revealed to people around Gabrielle. At that rate, it wouldn’t be long before it would be known by everyone, even if they did not make it public themselves.

Keeping all that in mind, Westley didn’t want to rush to do anything. He felt he should just let Gabrielle do whatever she wanted.

“Westley, so you go to the company now! Be careful on the way. Bye!” Gabrielle spoke to him after closing the door. She walked a few steps and turned to wave at him. Then she hastily ran away.

Instead of leaving in a hurry, Westley sat in the car and watched Gabrielle. He slowly pulled out a cigarette from the packet and lit it. He hadn’t smoked for a long time. He was aware that Gabrielle didn’t like the smell of cigarettes. Therefore, he seldom smoked at places where there was a chance that she would come.

But now he had a strong desire to smoke at least one cigarette. Maybe it was because he saw Melissa and was feeling a little uneasy.

Gabrielle reached the company and walked in. Her eyes were searching for Lolita, but she was nowhere to be seen. She found it a little strange.

Generally speaking, as an employee Lolita would always reach the workplace on time, every day. Every time when Gabrielle came to the company, Lolita would arrive before her. Gabrielle was sure that Lolita was never late to the company in all these days.

Thus, it was a little strange that Lolita hadn’t arrived yet. Gabrielle asked her colleagues, who were around her, and enquired if Lolita had already come today. They confirmed her doubt. Finding it weird, she called Lolita immediately.

Gabrielle was starting to get worried about what had happened to Lolita last night. After all, the two of them had caused such chaos at the meeting.

The call kept ringing for longer than expected. Finally Lolita’s voice came through. She sounded like she was in a daze. “Hello, who’s that?”

‘Who’s that?’ Gabrielle was surprised to hear it.

The moment she heard it, Gabrielle knew that Lolita was still asleep. She wondered if Lolita might have answered the phone in that sleepy state, even without opening her eyes.

“Lolita! It’s me, Gabrielle. Where are you? Are you still sleeping at home? Are you feeling sick?” Gabrielle asked anxiously.

“Ah! Gabrielle!” Lolita suddenly screamed her name. Things happened too quickly after that. Gabrielle heard a crash and crackling sound, as if something had fallen to the ground.

“Lolita, what’s wrong? What happened?” Gabrielle was getting more worried. She anxiously kept asking.

“Nothing! It’s nothing, Gabrielle. Have you reached the company already?” Though she was trying to sound calm, there was still a trace of panting in Lolita’s voice. Clearly, something had happened there.

“Yes. I’m at the company now. Listen, if you’re really feeling sick or anything, I’ll help you apply for having the day off,” Gabrielle suggested.

“There’s no need to apply for leave for me, Gabrielle. I’ll see you later in the company.” Saying that, Lolita quickly hung up the phone.

Just then, the door opened. Standing at the door, Jason smiled when he saw the shocked and hazy look on Lolita’s face. “Lolita, you are finally awake. Does your head hurt? Are you feeling uncomfortable?”

When she was talking to Gabrielle over the phone, she opened her eyes and looked around. She was shocked! It hit her like a thunderbolt that it was not her room. Rather, she was in a completely strange room. But then her eyes fell upon Jason, the big boss, who was standing at the door. Seeing him there, she was certain that she had gone crazy.

“Mr. Foster?” she mumbled as she stared at him.
