Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 348 Where Did You Hear That

Gabrielle received a phone call from Wendy while Westley was taking a bath.

She didn’t want to answer it in all honesty, because she knew full well that the reason Wendy was contacting her was because of Bryce.

Thus, aside from asking things about that man, there was nothing else they would normally talk about.

“What’s up, Mom?” Gabrielle greeted calmly. But if one were to listen carefully to her tone, they would notice that she was somewhat impatient.

“Are you up. Gabrielle?” Wendy was now more polite to Gabrielle, and her once exasperated behavior towards the latter had all but disappeared.

In the past, she was always picking on Gabrielle just because she was her stepmother, and she held no motherly love for her.

At present, the reason Wendy was being so nice to Gabrielle was because she needed her help. Perhaps she had never expected this to happen. u

“Yes, Mom. Get to the point. What do you want?” Gabrielle had never liked beating around the bush.

“Are you still going to the studio today. Gabrielle? In that case, let’s have lunch together. By the way. do you remember that I bought a set of jewelry for you a few days ago? I brought it back last time. – Wendy’s attitude had changed drastically. Now, she was much gentler than before.

Gabrielle had almost forgotten that Wendy kept on insisting that she picked a jewelry as a form of dowry, and it had been left in the store, so that her name could be engraved in it.

Truthfully, Gabrielle was never fond of that jewelry. Aside from that, she hadn’t received any calls from the store yet, causing her to forget about it. It turned out that Wendy had already taken it back herself.

She might’ve even fetched it personally.

And she was probably using this as an excuse to meet up with Gabrielle.
