Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 562

Westley noticed the worried expression on Gabrielle’s face. She was getting too anxious.

“Don’t worry, Gabrielle. I’ve called the best brain doctor to treat the child. I’m hopeful, he’ll wake up soon.” Westley tried to comfort her. He didn’t want to see her so disturbed and upset.

“I know you’re doing your best. Come on then. Let’s go back.” Gabrielle was aware that she was becoming more and more sentimental in recent time. It was not what she wanted. She wanted to become a more rational and practical person.

Sometimes she wanted to be cold and cruel like the others. In the past, Gabrielle could face everything rationally, but now she had changed and become more irrational. Besides, she knew that she had already caused a lot of trouble to Westley. She realized it was time for her to reflect on herself.

As his wife, she always ended up creating chaos or trouble for Westley. It was like she had never done anything right.

“I think I’m too useless for anything,” Gabrielle whispered. She thought she had said it softly but it was loud enough to be heard by Westley.

Upon hearing her words, Westley immediately realized that she was blaming herself for everything.

“You’re my wife. You don’t need to be perfect or be capable of handling everything. There should be few things you can’t do. If my wife can do everything and is a strong woman, I will not get a chance to do anything for her. In that case, I will end up thinking that I’m useless!” Westley said gently, trying to explain the situation. He wanted her to realize that she was just a woman.

And he wanted her to know that as a man, he wanted to be the one person on whom his wife could rely. He’d have loved it, if she would rely on him for everything. Only then he would feel that he was

more useful. He wanted to the permanent problem-solver in his wife’s life. He wanted her to reach out to him for anything in future.

Whenever Westley coaxed and comforted her, Gabrielle’s mood would change. She would feel happy that he cared so much about her feelings.

“I understand that now. Shall we go back now?” Gabrielle calmed down. She smiled softly and seemed happier.

“Okay. Let’s go back now. So, tell me, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll prepare it for you!” They felt a bit lighter and Westley started the car.

“Well, I want to eat lamb kebabs. Westley, let’s have some drinks and a barbecue tonight. What do you say?” Gabrielle wanted to just forget everything and have a little peaceful time eating and drinking with Westley. After expressing her choice instantly, she regretted it. She felt she shouldn’t have made such a request. After all, a rich man like Westley often ate in the Michelin restaurants or five-star hotels. Why would he like to eat kebabs? “Of course! Let’s go to the supermarket. We’ll need to buy some ingredients.” Westley instantly nodded in agreement, which surprised Gabrielle.

She had expected that her suggestion would be downrightly rejected by Westley. She didn’t expect him to agree without any second thoughts or hesitation. “Okay! Let’s go shopping then.” Gabrielle’s face completely lit up. She was suddenly filled with excitement. They went to the supermarket and bought a lot of meat for making kebabs. They invited the chef of a restaurant to cook for them while they rested. Gabrielle and Westley just wanted to eat peacefully. “Gabrielle, the food is ready. Come now.” Westley handed the roasted meat to Gabrielle once she settled down at the table. Gabrielle took it and had a big bite.

Though it was hot, she couldn’t stop herself. Westley took a small bite. He was surprised as it tasted really good. “So? Is it delicious?” Gabrielle looked at Westley. She was feeling proud at her suggestion.

Looking at the way he was enjoying the food, Gabrielle was sure that he was liking it. Soon enough, she felt that she did the right thing by suggesting a barbecue tonight. “Mmm. It tastes really good.” Westley seldom ate such food, but he was enjoying it now. He never knew it tasted so good. “I don’t think there is anyone in the world who doesn’t like barbecue. If he doesn’t like it even after eating it once, then it means that he hasn’t tasted a good barbecued food.” Without any hesitation, Gabrielle opened a can of beer and handed it to Westley.

“Westley, you must drink this while you eat. It’ll enhance the flavor of the barbecued meat.” Gabrielle handed over the can and urge

d him to drink it while he ate.

On her insistence, Westley took the can of beer and had a sip. He felt that the taste of beer was too strong.

He was not used to drinking beer. However, on seeing Gabrielle drinking it so happily, he too started to drink.

“Westley, have you tried it earlier? Now, have a sip and take a bite of the meat. A sip of beer and a bite of meat together are the best combination.” Gabrielle started guiding him to enjoy the barbecue in the best way.

Westley obediently did as he was told. The fact was that he hadn’t drunk beer or eaten kebabs like this ever.

“So, do you like it?” Gabrielle asked seriously. She was eagerly waiting to know his opinion.

Westley took a sip of beer and ate some meat. Then he looked at Gabrielle whose eyes were fixed on him. “Wow! Honestly, it’s delicious, Gabrielle!”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“That’s a relief to know! It’s good that you like it. I thought you’d hate drinking beer and eating kebabs. After all, a rich man like you does not really fit in with these things.” Gabrielle had a smile on her face as she clinked her can against his in joy.

“Hmm. Do you think I’m that kind of person? So, your heart and mind have this opinion about me!” Westley seemed to be curious now. He wanted to know what she really thought of him.

“Yes! Well, you are from the Morris family. You were born with a sliver spoon in your mouth. Being a member of such a wealthy family, you must have often eaten in five-star Michelin restaurants. How could you eat food like this? Isn’t this food of street stalls for ordinary people?” Neither was Gabrielle being sarcastic, nor did she mean to belittle herself. She had become aware that their lives were different from each other since they were born. Westley was born in a rich family with a silver spoon in his mouth, while Gabrielle was an orphan who had been abandoned in the welfare house as soon as she was born.

Therefore, there was stark contrast between the things in their lives, including the food they had eaten. But seeing Westley eating it easily and comfortably, Gabrielle was amazed. There was a hint of suspicion too in her mind. “Gabrielle, I am an ordinary person. I hardly consider my identity as the second son of the Morris family. I also prefer and live a normal life. Not all rich people are extravagant. I also have some habits which are quite ordinary.

I know you like this, but I just don’t get the chance to eat such things often.” Westley spoke his heart out calmly. He wanted her to think he was not like any other rich man. He had come to know that Gabrielle liked drinking beer and eating kebabs with her friends. In fact, he had eaten it in the same way when he was in college. However during those days too he had eaten it only a few times. Of course, that time he was not as happy as he was now. It meant a lot more as he sat eating it with Gabrielle. Food was not the most important thing for Westley. The most important thing for him was the person with whom he ate. As long as he was with Gabrielle, he would be happy. It did not matter what

he ate. “Wow! So, you think you are an ordinary person. But you know what, in my heart, you are not ordinary at all. You are my hero, my handsome and brave hero.

Come on! Let’s have a toast to that!” Gabrielle raised the can and clinked it against Westley’s in a celebratory manner. Westley realized that beer and kebabs were the best combination for Gabrielle to relax. After getting drunk, she was completely self-indulgent and expressive. Her mood had changed considerably. There was not a worry on her mind. She hugged Westley, kept talking aloud and even started singing happily. “Westley, I’m very happy today.

I’ve been here for so long but today is my happiest day here!” “That’s good! I’m also very happy. Let’s go back to our room now. You should take a shower and go to bed. You’re completely drunk.” Westley held her in his arms and took her into the room. “Noo! I’m not drunk. See, I’m still sober!” Gabrielle said coquettishly and tried to break away from Westley’s grip. “Okay! You’re right. You’re not drunk. Let’s take a shower first. It’s getting late.” Westley coaxed his wife gently to walk inside the room. “Hmm. In that case, I want to take a shower with you. Okay?” Gabrielle stared at Westley’s face and asked. She blinked her eyes and waited for his reply innocently. “Okay! As you say! Come on now. Let’s take a shower together.”
