Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 219 Holding Onto Him

Gabrielle’s eyes welled up with fear and trepidation, and from the bottom of her heart, anxiety rose. She tightly clenched Westley’s shirt with her hands, unwilling to let him go. Her grip had wrinkled his plain and smooth shirt.

“Gabrielle, if you keep holding onto me like that, how can I run water? You need to clean yourself now.” Westley didn’t try to pull her hands away. So, he coaxed her in this way, hoping that she would let go of him by herself

However, Gabrielle didn’t draw her hand back. Instead, she clenched his shirt even more tightly now. Her body was trembling so hard that even her fingertips quivered. She was visibly scared

“No, no…” Gabrielle stared at him with her bright black eyes, lightly shaking her head. Even her voice was soft and muffled, almost sounding frightened.

It was the first time that Westley saw Gabrielle in a state like this. It also happened for the first time that someone needed him.

His heart was full of feelings.

“Well, you are not letting me go. Then, I’ll carry you to run water, okay?” Westley held her in his arms and squatted beside the bathtub. He kept one hand behind her and turned on the tan with the other.

The water started running out of the tap. Gabrielle, who had been quiet and woeful, suddenly burst into tears. Her tears streamed down her cheeks like the water running out of the tap

“Gabrielle, what’s wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?” Westley was troubled. He became worried when his eyes trailed at her red and swollen face. There were two clear palm prints on it. He was aware of who had hit her.

As soon as he entered the room and saw Gabrielle getting tortured, he wanted to kill Estelle without skipping a beat.

“Westley, was I about to die?” Gabrielle gradually recovered herself.

But in her mind, she could still clearly see the shining scissors in Estelle’s hand. If Westley didn’t come on time, she could have gotten killed with those scissors. “Stop overthinking. I won’t ever let something like that happen again,”

Westley coaxed her earnestly.
