Lock You In My Heart

Lock You In My Heart Chapter 396

When Gabrielle came out, she saw that Alvin had left already. But there was Westley, having changed his clothes, standing before a table of delicious breakfast, grinning.

The fragrance of the food hugged the room, made Gabrielle salivate, made her forget how tired she had been last night.

“You’re done, Gabrielle. You must be hungry. Come and have breakfast,” Westley called, beckoning her to a chair.

Sitting on one side of the small table placed beside the large glass wall, they watched the fish wriggling through the clean blue water as they ate breakfast. It had been just like this when they had dinner in the glass ball at that time.

It was a lovely sight.

Earlier, Gabrielle had been in quite a bad mood, having been disturbed by Westley the whole of last night. But now, as she watched the water, her bad mood ebbed away like the tiny wavelets that spread out around the swimming fish.

Watching these marine creatures had its little magic of transforming bad days into beautiful ones.

“We can stay here an extra day, or even as long as you want. What do you think?” Westley asked, munching slowly while he poured her a glass of milk.

Gabrielle held up the glass and sipped at the milk. Her eyes glinted with thrill as she stared at Westley. “You mean we can really stay here as long as we want?”

It was actually going to be fun to live here. But she knew that it would seem like living in an aquarium, and before long she would get bored.

“Of course, we can. It all depends on how long you want us to stay,” Westley said seriously.

He neither sounded nor looked as if he was joking. He was a man who meant every single word he said.

Sensing that he was indeed serious, she decided to dissuade him immediately. She knew the kind of the person he was. “I really don’t want to live here, Westley. It’s okay if we can come here once in a while to have a nice time. But if I have to see this water and these fish every day, I’ll get tired of it all after a while, you know.”

Westley listened, staring calmly at her and nodding slowly in agreement.
