Lock You In My Heart

After hanging up, Gabrielle’s heart sank. She sat there feeling worried.

“What’s wrong?” asked Westley.

He remembered what Jackson said.

Westley thought that meeting Melissa must have made Gabrielle uncomfortable.

But he was surprised to hear that Gabrielle had always been a fan of her.

The Morris family and the Walker family from Ensfield had had some issues in the past. Then, Melissa was married into the Walker family.

She belonged to the other side now.

But the feud was between these two clans and their main family members.

Gabrielle and Melissa were daughters-in-law of each family, affiliated only by marriage, so it should spare them from all the conflict.

Westley didn’t mind them getting along, as long as Melissa meant his wife no harm.

Moreover, Melissa might be able to help Gabrielle with her career in the future.

“Jackson said that Melissa wanted to see me. Can you drive me to the Champs Hotel?” Gabrielle asked hesitantly.

Melissa wanted to meet her out of the blue and she didn’t know why. It was making her anxious.

“Of course. Did she say why?” Westley asked, worried.

After all, Melissa was a big shot in the jewelry design industry, and Gabrielle was totally a newcomer. Why would she want to see Gabrielle for no reason?
