Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 117 Not Interested in

You

“Ahem…” Gabrielle choked on the mouthful of vegetables that she just stuffed in her mouth.

She felt terrible

She hurriedly grabbed a cup of water for herself as she looked at Westley with watery eyes.

“I can explain. I did not intend to bring Lance to the hospital for him to bash your bodyguards. I happened to meet him there during my visit to see Sloane at the hospital. We met there coincidently; it was not preplanned. When we were at her hospital ward, the bodyguards denied his entry. Due to his anxiousness, he ended up hitting the guards. He did not do it intentionally. Could you forgive him?” Gabrielle diligently explained the situation to Westley. She needed to let him know that they did not meant to intentionally hit the bodyguards.

“Gabrielle, are you blaming me for allowing the bodyguards to stop you?” Westley said. He seemed to find joy in distorting her words and intentions.

Gabrielle shook her head as she said, “Westley, that wasn’t my intention. I just wanted to…”

“Therefore by using a meal, you intend to exchange it for my forgiveness?” Westley said.

“That was not my intention. Cooking for you was out of my willingness, my own good intentions. It has nothing to do with your forgiveness and I did not intend to use this meal to coerce you into

forgiving us. At the end of the day, if you do not want to forgive Lance, it doesn’t matter. I just wanted to explain that Lance did not mean to hurt them,”

Gabrielle said seriously.

What she did not know was that Westley was unhappy due to the fact that she kept on defending and explaining for Lance.

“Gabrielle, regardless if Lance did it purposely or unintentionally, it doesn’t change the fact that he has indeed hurt someone. He is eventually in the wrong. Therefore, what’s the point in you explaining and apologizing on behalf of him?” said Westley coldly and indifferently.

Gabrielle had no way to refute his words. What Westley said was legitimate. Regardless if Lance had done it purposely or unintentionally, it was Lance who did it. He should have been the one to apologize, not her.

The atmosphere between the two of them was at a standstill. Gabrielle didn’t dare to say anything. She was afraid that Westley would get angrier with anything she said. After all, nothing good happened when this man got angry.

After the tensed meal, Gabrielle stood from her seat as she got ready to clear the dishes.

* You have already injured one hand of yours, are you intending to hurt both hands now? Just leave the dishes as it is. Sophie will clean up the mess. You do not need to fret about it.” After throwing those words at her, Westley stood up and left.
