Lock You In My Heart

‘Something has happened to Bryce?

What could have happened?’

Lance had said it in such a serious and worried tone, surely it couldn’t be a joke.

The manner in which he had spoken, anyone would worry about Bryce and would want to know if he was in some trouble!

“Lance, are you serious? What are you talking about? What happened to him? Didn’t you tell me that your people had lost track of him and couldn’t find him? What is this now?” Gabrielle was apprehensive. She just couldn’t believe it.

“Listen to me, Gabrielle. My men found Bryce this noon. He was in a bad state, all covered in blood. It seems like he had escaped from somewhere. After my men took him to a safe place, they reached out and informed me. But Gabrielle, he is seriously injured.” Lance didn’t want Gabrielle to worry about Bryce anymore. But he couldn’t hide the fact from her that Bryce was severely injured. She had every right to know about his condition.

“Tell me, where did your men find him? From where do you think he escaped? How could he end up with blood all over his body? You’re telling me that he is seriously injured. How serious is his condition?” Gabrielle was anxious. “Tell me!” she shouted.

Whatever had happened between them was a different thing. Bryce had been her brother for many years. Though he disliked and hated her, he was her nominal brother. She regarded him as her sibling, even if he didn’t.

She had often thought that he would be punished for all that he had done. But she didn’t expect that it would be such a serious punishment.

“Honestly, he is very badly injured. Fortunately, he’s still alive. Don’t worry, I’ve hired the best doctor for him. But I’ll need to go to Bangkok to see him personally. Only then, I can tell you about his condition.” Lance was actually telling the truth. He had not seen Bryce himself so he couldn’t tell exactly about him.

Only after seeing Bryce in person, he would be in a position to tell about the specific situation.

As a matter of fact, Lance wasn’t even sure that there would be news about Bryce so soon. He had never thought that they would end up getting a bad news.

And that news came unexpectedly, when it was at Christmas.

“Seriously injured? He’s alive now? If you’re saying like that, then it must be really serious. You haven’t set out yet, right? Where are you now? I want to come with you to Bangkok.” Saying that, Gabrielle quickly hailed a taxi and got in.
