Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 516 Praying In The Temple

She was abandoned by her biological family and adopted by the Jones family as a foster child. Then, she had to marry him for retribution.

In fact, no one knew about Gabrielle’s life better than Westley did. Her whole life, she was abandoned, used and redeemed for someone’s sin. She never got a chance to experience warmth and happiness in her life.

Who would have thought that such a kind and wonderful girl was oppressed and treated unfairly?

Thinking about it, Westley felt pain in his heart which made him hard to breathe.

At that time, he swore to himself that he would treat Gabrielle better in the future. He wouldn’t let her feel uneasy or wronged any longer. 3 All of a sudden, his heart became very heavy as he held her tightly in his arms and whispered, “I will love you forever and give you the warmth and happiness you deserve in the future. I won’t let you suffer any grievance. I promise, Gabrielle.” 3

It wasn’t Gabrielle’s intention to make the atmosphere so serious like this. In fact, she just wanted to express her admiration and envy towards Westley’s family as she wanted him to cherish it. She wanted him to know that he was lucky to be the son of the Morris family.

However, his thoughts went into the direction of something else in the end.

Patting his back, Gabrielle comforted him, “Please quit having those thoughts, Westley. I didn’t mention it to make you feel this way. I just wanted to let you know that you’re so lucky to have such kind of family so don’t blow it up just because of me.” Ever since he was injured in Bangkok, Westley was easy to get emotional.

Sometimes, men also needed to be coaxed when they were sad. 2

Lowering his head, Westley kissed her on her forehead while saying, “I won’t. I just don’t want you to suffer.” “I promise I won’t. When I got into the Morris family, I got an opportunity to be loved from Grandma. So, I never felt wronged. Now, let’s go and pick up some gifts for her, and for Mr. and Mrs. Morris. Oh, also for Zaid too. We don’t have much time left. Let’s go.” Then, she grabbed his hand and continued walking on the street.

Fortunately, Gabrielle wasn’t someone who would hesitate to make decisions after comparing with other shops. Instead, if she liked something at first sight, she wouldn’t sway her decision because she would just stick to it. It took only about two hours for them to buy all the presents. After that, the two of them carried them to the car.
