Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 316 An Unwanted Third Wheel

After the two young men left them, both Michelle and Gabrielle began setting their napkins. Looking at the served dishes, Michelle picked up her chopsticks and started filling Gabrielle’s plate,

“Eat, Gabrielle. This is the top-grade beef, and believe me, it’s amazing! To her best, Michelle was trying to take good care of her cousin-in-law, not to disappoint Westley in any case.

“But, Michelle,” Gabrielle hurriedly said, looking at hep almost filled plate, “shouldn’t we wait for the big boss?” Nevertheless, Michelle already had the food in her mouth, and not so surprisingly, she was munching on it with delight.

“She said that we were invited by someone, but…’ Gabrielle tilted her head, looking at Michelle eating her food effortlessly.

“She’s eating without the presence of our

host. It’s not polite.”

“Don’t worry about him. He’s having a business dinner outside. He will come later. So, till then, have fun.” Michelle winked while chuckling at the secret she held.

Westley told her earlier that he might not be able to join them for dinner. He said that he would be having dinner with a business partner. Also, he asked Michelle to take care of Gabrielle for dinner.

She’s so lucky to have Westley. He’s so nice.‘ Michelle pouted internally. “I’m jealous.’

“Oh, okay. Ther, let’s eat.” Gabrielle then started to eat.

“Gabrielle, treat yourself with more. The chef who made it all is outstanding. I’ve heard he had been cooking for the royal family of the UK before.”

Michelle said, gulping down another bite, “It’s delicious. The food materials they use are imported from around the world every day. So, relax and eat well. And! If you want to order something more for yourself, feel free to do so.” Michelle’s

tone was slightly exhibiting, Nevertheless, Gabrielle was intrigued to think about what she would want to eat, ‘Everything is present on the table, more than enough for three people. What else Can I ask for?’

“I am fine. You should eat more too.” Watching her plate full of all that was available on the table, Gabrielle had to find a way to stop Michelle from stuffing it more.

In fact, her plate was fuller than she could eat. “I’ll do. Don’t worry about me. And, there’s no seafood here.” Michelle flashed a small mysterious smile. “So. you should feel free to eat all the dishes without being anxious.” Her kindness melted Gabrielle’s heart.

Though Gabrielle was allergic to seafood, she didn’t deem this as a problem of a magnitude big enough to tell everyone.
