Chapter 481
No matter what tricks Westley tried to pull, it didn’t matter one bit to Gabrielle. This time, nothing would change her mind.
She had to clear it all up. It would give her peace of mind and more.
Admittedly, the start of their relationship wasn’t good. They were essentially forced to get married because of Bryce and Nellie. But over time, things had changed.
It wasn’t long before Westley and Gabrielle fell for each other—hard. What started as a marriage of convenience ended up with both parties finding true love. All things considered, they really should thank Bryce and Nellie.
“Gabrielle, I’ll get you the clothes, and you have to change quickly. I don’t know how much time we have here.” Westley went out and fetched a black duffel bag, which he left in advance. Inside it, there were dark clothes to help camouflage them at night, a pair of shoes for Gabrielle, and weapons for self-defense—among other things. She thought it was typical of Westley—to think everything through.
Gabrielle put all the things on the wash basin and looked at them. She was about to change when she stopped.
“Westley, is it really necessary to bring so many weapons? I have a dagger. Lance gave it to me. This bag has enough arsenal to arm a few soldiers.” Gabrielle stared at the dagger Westley brought and initially thought she didn’t need it. Then, she noticed how his face darkened at her words, so she quickly backtracked.
“But, you know what? I prefer the one you brought me.” Gabrielle picked it up and clutched it to gauge its fit. She had to admire the excellent workmanship.
Somehow, Westley always found things that suited her perfectly. She had no idea how he did it.
“You really like it? You swear?” Westley cocked an eyebrow. He wasn’t totally sold on how fast she changed her mind.

since Westley and his men came to the forest. Even though he wanted to just grab Gabrielle and leave, he had to bide his time. They didn’t take any action because they needed to prepare. Westley had to ensure his plan would work. Before he set foot in the forest, Westley didn’t know that the Campbell Family and Bain had a grudge against each other. Westley wasn’t aware of the lengths Bain was willing to go to just to exact his revenge. So if Bain found
