Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 526 Take Caution When Saving An Ungrateful Man

Remy was in the living room and reading a book. He heard a car pull up in the driveway. He put down his book when he saw Westley and Gabrielle enter the room. He looked at them questioningly.

“I thought you would set out for the villa at five o’clock in the afternoon. It’s already nine,” he said, glancing at the wall clock. “It’s only a two-hour drive. What took you so long to get here?” asked Remy in a worried tone, belying the unpleasant way he had welcomed them.

“Something urgent turned up and we needed to deal with it. And so, we were delayed in getting back here,” explained Westley nonchalantly. He then took Gabrielle’s hand and they went to the kitchen.

“Dinner was hours ago. The food has gone cold. Just heat it up. Has something gone wrong?” Remy asked worriedly.

Something serious must have happened. Otherwise, Westley and Gabrielle would not delay that long. But Westley was a capable man, he would have solved any problem.

As a businessman, Westley had a reputation for getting whatever he wanted because he was ruthless and scheming. He had proven this time and again. So even in Bangkok, nothing could happen to him.

“I can heat up the food. Have you eaten?” Westley asked Remy.

“Yes, I already had dinner,” answered Remy. “I’m just waiting for you two. Now, I am relieved that you’ve both returned.” He felt anxious waiting for them in the past hours. He knew that they would return but it took them longer than the estimated time of arrival. 1

So seeing them here, looking okay, he let out a sigh of relief.

“I’ll warm up the food. Gabrielle, why don’t you rest a while?” Westley said as he pointed to a chair at the table.

Gabrielle reached for the pitcher on the table and poured a glass of water for herself. She slowly drank up the water, delighted at its refreshing coolness. When she was done, she walked up to Remy.

“How is Rose?” asked Gabrielle. She hadn’t had the time to see Rose. 1

Remy assured her that Rose was doing okay. “But what about the two of you? Had something happened to you? Your body smells like blood.” Being a doctor, Remy was sensitive to the smell of blood.
