Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 114 A Married Man

Knowing a good friend intimately had its cons. Both friends are easily able to sense what the other is thinking or feeling in a minute.

Remy was right-which irritated Westley. He was worried that he had been absent while Gabrielle had

cut her hand.

But he would never admit it. He ensured himself that it was none of his business if Gabrielle had cut her hand. If anything, she deserved it.&

Westley still failed to understand why she had been pretending to cook when she didn’t even know how to, in the first place. Was she trying to apologize to him, or poison him?

“Remy, please don’t provoke Westley. He’s going to feel worse than he already is, somehow. If it goes on like this, would you still want to eat?” Jonas tried to persuade him.

Remy smiled. “Let him be.”

Westley refused to admit that something was on his mind. He was angry, sure, but he was unwilling to admit it. That was Westley.

“You cannot compare a married man’s problems with an unmarried man’s. They’re obviously very different. Anyway. Westley seems to be way more preoccupied with troubles after he got married,” Alexis analyzed seriously.

“Do you still want your club?” Westley gave Alexis a cold glance.

Alexis stopped immediately.

After dinner, they went upstairs to drink in the private room, which evidently belonged to Alexis.

Back at the villa, Sophie came into the kitchen from time to time to supervise Gabrielle while she continued to cook. At last, Gabrielle had completed the arduous task by herself. However, she had been waiting for Westley from six o’clock, and it was nearing eight o’clock now. He was still not back yet, and Gabrielle couldn’t even reach him.

Sophie also grew anxious, but she didn’t dare call Westley. He had been so cold on the phone before, and then he hadn’t even bothered to reply after she had sent the message about Gabrielle’s injury. It looked like that he wasn’t going to make it to Half Moon Bay tonight.
