Lock You In My Heart

Gabrielle had known Westley well enough to have a good grasp on him. Without even looking, she could detect his presence once he got close to her.

Therefore, even right now, figuring out who was hugging her from behind was not a hard process. She could tell who it was without even looking back.

It was just that she didn’t understand why Westley had come out so soon. He should still be in the barbecue restaurant.

“Westley, why are you here?” Gabrielle asked, a sense of guilt still lingering in her heart.

She sneaked out to buy a gift, yet she still got caught. But luckily, she had already put the gift in her bag, so Westley couldn’t see it.

Additionally, her encounter with Austin was purely a coincidence. If Westley didn’t believe her, it might cause a misunderstanding between her and Westley, leading him to think she was secretly seeing Austin.

Thinking of this, the guilt in her heart grew even worse.

“If I didn’t come out, my wife would have gone somewhere. I thought you were lost. It turns out you went shopping. What did you buy?” Westley rubbed her head and spoke very earnestly.

There was no sign of anger or jealousy, which made Gabrielle feel a little relieved.

“I… I just want to go out and buy milk tea. Barbecue and milk tea are a perfect match. I haven’t found my favorite milk tea shop yet, and I came across Austin.” Gabrielle hurriedly gave out an explanation.

Even though Westley didn’t look angry or jealous now, Gabrielle was willing to explain to him and didn’t want him to have any misunderstandings.

After all, honesty and trust were what kept a couple’s relationship stable and strong. Those were the foundations that held the connection alive. Without those, the built relationship could easily go wrong.

Gabrielle was well aware that Westley really didn’t like Austin, let alone seeing him with her.

So, she felt that it would be better to take the opportunity to explain first.
