Lock You In My Heart

Gabrielle couldn’t help but laugh at the confident look on Lolita’s face.

“I didn’t expect you to know Westley so well. Or did you already see through the essence of love and marriage?” Gabrielle was smiling widely; she was playing with Lolita.

“How can I know Mr. Morris? I just met him once, but that was more than enough to see the love in his eyes each time he looked at you. The eyes never lie, Gabrielle. Mr. Morris’ eyes are full of tenderness whenever he looks at you. I really envy you,” Lolita said. She touched Gabrielle’s arm with her other hand and smiled at her.

“Well, drink your champagne.” Gabrielle took a sip to hide the smile playing on her lips. What Lolita said touched her deeply.

Westley looked at her affectionately and with tenderness?

Why didn’t she feel like this before? Westley was no longer as cold as when she first met him, and he didn’t hate her anymore.

At the beginning of their marriage, he treated her like an enemy. He snapped at her and was always suspicious of her actions. He was far from being gentle with her. But all that had changed.

“It’s true that all sorts of people were allowed here.”

“The organizers’ standard is getting lower for sure. It’s not as exclusive as before.”

“I don’t know what will happen next time. If such a person shows up in this kind of event again, I won’t attend it anymore.”

“I really don’t know what the organizers were thinking. They should level up, not lower the bar. Didn’t they know that many industry masters were invited today? Did they even take the experts seriously?”

“Some people don’t deserve to be here. They probably can’t even appreciate the masters’ works. They don’t deserve to see the jewelries ahead of the general public.”

“Don’t worry. They can’t afford it. They can only watch longingly at the items.”
