Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 299 An Obsessed Wife

Lolita gave Gabrielle a friendly pat on the shoulder as she laughed at her statement. “Don’t be ridiculous! I am beyon delighted that you had the opportuotiy to attend this once in a lifetime seminar It’s a little upsetting for you to stnk that I would be unhappy about it. After all, we are good friends, aren’t ?” She gave Gabrielle another tap on the shoulder and smiled ever-so svetly. “It was stupid one. I was superficial. I thought…

“Why is that? Did you expect me to be upset and jealous over the fact that you got in and I didn’t? It’s a mere seminar. I have been studying abroad for over five years. I couldn’t care less about it. Besides, I already have attended countless design exhibitions and seminars. Scratch that. A hero keeps mum about his glories. I’m just starting out as an intern designer. My colleagues

are young and promising. Plus, I met a charming friend.” She pinched Gabrielle’s face and beamed with glte.

“I’m sorry, I should have told you earlier, I was afraid it would upset you.” Gabrielle apologized with utmost sincerity.

“Silly girl, there’s no need to be so formal. I told you, we’re friends. I in overjoyed that you would be able to go toe the seminar. Would you like to the dinner so we could officially celgrale this amazing feat?” Lolita aske out of courtesy

Gabrielle was a mere student. If she had to attend classes, she wouldn’t be able to come visit. This cottumstance did not make her a friend on the regular.

They used to have dinner together every once in a while but it had been so long since that last happened.

Eemnified that her husband would eat her alive if she did.

“Alright. You can get that out of the way first, we’ll have dinner at a time that’s convenient for you. I have to congratulate you again. You alte amazing. Gabrielle. I’m proud of you!” Lolita had the utmost respect and reverence for her capabilities. Gabrielle’s talents and willingness to work hard were indege beyond admirable. Without a ting of doubt, God would bless such a pepon. “Rest assured that I will utk harder. Thank you.”

Gabrielle dropped by the supermarket after work. She went home with two bags worth of groceries and a bouquet of flowers from the local floral shop.

Sophie was there to bring the bags in when Gabrielle got off the taxi from the front yard. It was particularly difficult for her to carry heavy things since she had not fully recovered from her injury yet.

“Thank you, Sophie. It’s a little too much, isn’t it?” Embarrassment was pasted on her face as Gabrielle looked at Sophie.
