Lock You In My Heart Chapter 433

Gabrielle was dying to have dinner with Melissa. She was teeming with excitement.

Sharing a meal with her idol meant the world to her. She was without a doubt, fangirling.

“I would love to have dinner with you, Ms. Glyn. What time is your flight? I can see you off at the airport.” Hiding her excitement was particularly difficult for Gabrielle.

The closer she got to Melissa, the more approachable she found she was. In Gabrielle’s eyes, Melissa would never fail to ignite her excitement.

“It’s alright. Thank you. Jackson has booked me a chauffeur. I can leave from the hotel to the airport right away. I don’t want to cause you any trouble.” A gentle smile adorned Melissa’s beautiful face.

Going back and forth from the hotel to the airport took more than an hour. It would take 30 minutes more if something was delayed. Melissa did not want to waste Gabrielle’s precious time.

“I swear! It’s okay! I have nothing to do this afternoon anyway. I picked you up when you came so it’s just right that I drop you off.” Gabrielle looked at her with expecting eyes.

Melissa was touched by her sincerity. Gabrielle really gave warmth to everything she grazes.

“Alright then. It’s all up to you. I just hope that it wouldn’t take too much of your time. Come, let’s order. Tell me what you like and don’t like. I’ll help you pick.” Melissa took the menu in her hand and began to order.

“I’m allergic to seafood. Other than that, there’s nothing else I don’t eat.” Gabrielle’s insides were flooded with shame.

There was nothing she could do about her allergies.

“You’re allergic to seafood?” It was strange. Melissa was quite taken aback by what she said.

“Ms. Glyn, is something the matter?” There was an awkward look on Gabrielle’s face. She wondered if Melissa changed the way she looked at her just because she was allergic to seafood.

“Nothing. It just… Feels like fate. I’m allergic to seafood as well. I don’t like onions and dishes that are too rich.” The corners of Melissa lips lifted up with a smile.

Gabrielle breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at Melissa in disbelief.

“Ms. Glyn, maybe we were destined to meet. There are a lot of people allergic to seafood but I didn’t expect you to be one of them. I don’t like onions either but I don’t say it out loud because other people might be put off by it,” Gabrielle replied. The tone of her voice was serious. It was indescribable fate that put them together.

The smile in Melissa’s eyes grew deeper as she looked at Gabrielle. She believed that destiny paved the way for them to meet. She wanted to be closer to her. They had a lot in common. Even their allergies were similar.

“There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Everybody was born differently. Your parents worked hard to raise you well. You should be thankful to them. Don’t forget to show gratitude to yourself as well,” Melissa explained.

Melissa had been allergic to seafood the moment she was birthed into this world. Despite that, she never thought of it as a flaw.

She hoped that Gabrielle would think the same. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“I know. It’s not that I’m ashamed. I just don’t want to be a burden to

other people.” Gabrielle smiled awkwardly.

She always thought that she cared about other people more than she cared about herself. Gabrielle did not know that the people close to her couldn’t care less about such a trivial thing.

“Don’t be so serious. I don’t feel like having an argument with you. Since we have the same condition, you should be at ease in front of me. Don’t be too nervous. There’s no reason for you to feel like you’re a burden to me,” Melissa assured.

Gabrielle’s heart softened at the sound of her words. “I know, Ms. Glyn. I promise I won’t do it again. For the first time in my life, I appreciate my allergy. It’s one thing we have in common.”

Gabrielle’s happiness brought great joy into Melissa’s heart.

“You cute little fool. Come, let’s order now.” Melissa shook her head and smiled.

“Let’s have whatever you want.” Gabrielle was teeming with excitement.

She still couldn’t believe the fact that she and Melissa shared the same thing.

After lunch, the two women returned to the hotel. After Melissa picked up her luggage, they went to the airport.

Before Melissa stepped foot inside the car, she tried to dissuade Gabrielle from taking her to the airport. “Gabrielle, having lunch with you today made me so happy. You really don’t have to take me to the airport.”

“Let’s get in, Ms. Glyn. I want to take you there. Don’t you want me to?” Gabrielle was determined to see her off. Once she set her mind on something, she would do everything in her power to do it.

“Okay then. Take me to the airport.” Melissa couldn’t bring herself to refuse anymore. Deep inside, she wanted to spend more time with Gabrielle.

The two chatted all the way to the airport. When they arrived, Gabrielle updated Westley about where she was. She was worried that Westley would have trouble finding her in case he had something to tell her.

The ticket checking took a little over thirty minutes. Gabrielle kept Melissa company at the VIP room. If she hadn’t, Melissa would have been very uncomfortable sitting there alone.

Luckily, the two of them never seemed to run out of things to talk about. There was no hint of boredom or dead air between the two of them. Melissa and Gabrielle both felt like they didn’t want to part ways. Unfortunately, it was time for Melissa to go through security.

“After the New Year, training will resume. We can meet again. You have to work hard,” she gave Gabrielle a gentle reminder.

“I know, Ms. Glyn. I will study hard and try my best to grow even more. I will be better the next time you see me.” Gabrielle obediently nodded.

“I’m looking forward to seeing an improved version of you. I know you won’t let me down.” Melissa had never thought so highly of a young junior.

“I promise to make you proud. I’m looking forward to seeing you again. I hope you will let me fetch you then,” Gabrielle replied as she happily waved at her.

“You should go back earlier, then.” Melissa passed by the security and went in.

Gabrielle was reluctant to turn her back on her. She stood there for a while until she felt a pair of small hands holding her thigh. It was a child.
