    Chapter 117 Not Interested in


    You


    “Ahem…” Gabrielle choked on the mouthful of vegetables that she just stuffed in her mouth.


    She felt terrible


    She hurriedly grabbed a cup of water for herself as she looked at Westley with watery eyes.


    “I can exin. I did not intend to bring Lance to the hospital for him to bash your bodyguards. I


    happened to meet him there during my visit to see Sloane at the hospital. We met there coincidently; it


    was not prenned. When we were at her hospital ward, the bodyguards denied his entry. Due


    to his anxiousness, he ended up hitting the guards. He did not do it intentionally. Could you forgive


    him?” Gabrielle diligently exined the situation to Westley. She needed to let him know that they did


    not meant to intentionally hit the bodyguards.


    “Gabrielle, are you ming me for allowing the bodyguards to stop you?” Westley said. He seemed to


    find joy in distorting her words and intentions.


    Gabrielle shook her head as she said, “Westley, that wasn’t my intention. I just wanted to…”


    “Therefore by using a meal, you intend to exchange it for my forgiveness?” Westley said.


    “That was not my intention. Cooking for you was out of my willingness, my own good intentions. It has


    nothing to do with your forgiveness and I did not intend to use this meal to coerce you into

    forgiving us. At the end of the day, if you do not want to forgive Lance, it doesn’t matter. I just wanted to


    exin that Lance did not mean to hurt them,”


    Gabrielle said seriously.


    What she did not know was that Westley was unhappy due to the fact that she kept on defending and


    exining for Lance.


    “Gabrielle, regardless if Lance did it purposely or unintentionally, it doesn’t change the fact that he has


    indeed hurt someone. He is eventually in the wrong. Therefore, what’s the point in you exining and


    apologizing on behalf of him?” said Westley coldly and indifferently.


    Gabrielle had no way to refute his words. What Westley said was legitimate. Regardless if Lance had


    done it purposely or unintentionally, it was Lance who did it. He should have been the one to apologize,


    not her.


    The atmosphere between the two of them was at a standstill. Gabrielle didn’t dare to say anything. She


    was afraid that Westley would get angrier with anything she said. After all, nothing good happened


    when this man got angry.


    After the tensed meal, Gabrielle stood from her seat as she got ready to clear the dishes.


    * You have already injured one hand of yours, are you intending to hurt both hands now? Just leave the


    dishes as it is. Sophie will clean up the mess. You do not need to fret about it.” After throwing those


    words at her, Westley stood up and left.


    Gabrielle stood in the dining room, unsure if she


    should leave with him or stay behind.


    Where would she be sleeping tonight?


    It seemed like Westley was going to stay here tonight again. She didn’t want to sleep on the sofa like in


    previous times.


    “Gabrielle, do you want me to gloriously carry you back to the room?” Westley shouted at her coldly as


    he noticed that she was in a daze, not moving from the dining room


    Gabrielle jumped as she was woken up from her thoughts by his voice. She decided to follow him


    obediently as she didn’t want to risk provoking him again.


    “We… are we sleeping together?


    Gabrielle asked meekly as she approached Westley. She felt that she was asking a very indecent


    question.


    “It’s not like we have never slept together before.” Westley snorted and strode upstairs.


    Gabrielle felt nervous and bothered by his words. However, she still followed behind his steps quietly


    to the room.


    When the both of them returned to the room, Westley noticed that the woman behind him was


    behaving very warily. He was displeased with her actions.


    “Don’t worry. The bed is big enough for the two of us. We will not be in contact. After all, I’m not even


    interested in you or your body.” Westley voiced out. He knew what she was worried about. She was


    unwilling to have any intimacy


    between the two of them.


    Hearing this, Gabrielle breathed a sigh of relief. However, she felt a tinge of sadness within her Was


    she so unattractive to him? In his eyes, was she truly that repulsive?


    Westley’s words ranged in her ears. It sounded so dreadful that it made her heart feel awful.


    Gabrielle replied, masking her


    “I understand,” emotions.


    “Go to take a shower. Don’t even think about getting on the bed without a shower.” After saying that.


    Westley went directly to the bed and pulled the sheets up.


    Gabrielle didn’t exactly felt embarrassed about sharing a bed with Westley. It was not like they had


    not shared a bed before. Moreover, they were a legal couple. Although they are nominally married, they


    were still recognized as a couple byw. Thinking about this, she decided not to feel odd on


    embarrassed. She took her clothes and strode to the bathroom for a shower.


    After showering, she noticed that Westley wasn’t oni the bed anymore. She turned her head and saw


    that he was standing on the balcony. He was probably on a call. Well, it didn’t seem to be any of her


    business what Westley was doing she didn’t care. She went to the bed and pulled the sheets up as she


    lay down at the innermost part of the bed.


    Initially. Gabrielle was feeling very uneasy. However, as time went by she gradually fell asleep and


    entered thend of dreams. After Westley ended his call with Alvin, he walked into the bedroom and


    was greeted with the sight of her sleeping sweetly


    by the innermost part of the bed.


    Looking at her, he noticed that her fair and delicate face. Her pointy nose and supple lips were very


    beautiful and added to her charm. It was a no brainer to state that Gabrielle was indeed very beautiful.


    Unfortunately, there were some scars left behind on her face. However, once those scars faded, her


    face would be even more beautiful.


    He didn’t know who her biological parents are on how do they looked like but he knew that they were


    likely to be gorgeous people too. Otherwise, where did Gabrielle’s beauty came from? While her


    biological parents were likely to be esthetically pleasing, it was a pity that their personality


    characteristics were questionable. He wondered, what morals did they possess to be able to abandon


    their child? They truly didn’t have what it took to be a qualified parent. 5


    Standing by her side, Westley didn’t notice how long he spent looking fixedly at her delicate face.


    Allowing himself to ponder, he only had one thought. Was this woman carefree, or was she too


    comfortable around him? Did she truly believed when he said that he had no interest in her at all?


    Gabrielle slept through the night without a single dream. When she woke up, she noticed that the skies


    were already bright and the birds were chirping loudly. Moving her hands to the other side of the bed,


    she noticed that the bed had already long lost its warmth. It seemed like Westley had already left a long


    time ago.


    Westley must had left extremely early this morning,


    Gabrielle didn’t care about him at all. Whether he


    had left early orte, it was none of her business. However, it seemed like Westley was true to his


    words. He did not touch her at all.


    She lifted the quilt and walked towards the bathroom to freshen up before heading downstairs. As she


    descended the stairs she noticed Sophie cheerfully preparing breakfast. At the sight of Sophie’s


    cheerful countenance, it seemed like something wonderful had happened.


    “Good morning, Sophie. What is the asion? Do you have any good news to share with me?”


    Gabrielle greeted her.


    “Gabrielle, good morning! You’re up. Good news? Of course, there is good news. Didn’t you make up


    with Westley yesterday?” Sophie replied to her with a cheerful tone.


    “Made up with Westley?


    No way. That definitely did not happen,’ Gabrielle thought.


    He didn’t expressed any forgiveness towards Lance at all. The meal she cooked as she waited up all


    right for him to take was also in vain.


    Moreover, there wasn’t any chance for any intimacyst night even if Westley intended to. She fell


    asleep like a dead log and slept through the night sweetly.


    Gabrielle was on the verge of breaking down when she saw Sophie’s bright smile. She did not think


    that her problems were solved.


    “Sophie, I’m hungry. Did Westley leave early?’” Gabrielle asked as she pulled out a chair and sat.


    down.


    The bowls and tes they leftst night had already been cleaned up by Sophie. Now, there were fresh


    fruits and bunsy out on the table for her to eat.


    “Gabrielle, have a seat first. I’ll bring you some porridge for breakfast,” Sophie replied and she moved


    into the kitchen to prepare.


    While eating the steamed buns and porridge that was prepared for her, Gabrielle still felt that she was


    in a bad mood. It was all written on her face and the way she stirred the porridge.


    “Gabrielle, what happened between you and Mr. Mortisst night?” Sophie asked when she noticed


    that Gabrielle was in a bad mood. However, she wasn’t looking for some gossip when she asked. She


    truly cared about the rtionship between the two of them.


    After all, she knew that the two of them had been quarrelling for a while. The fact that Westley was


    herest night meant that the both of them had reconciled. Why was it that Gabrielle’s expression still


    looked so dull in the morning?


    This made Sophie very worried.


    “Nothing. Did Westley say anything when he left this morning?” Gabrielle asked uneasily as she stirred


    her porridge.


    She slept so wellst night that she didn’t even wake up when Westley had left. She wondered what


    his temper was like this morning when he left.


    “Yes. Mr. Morris said to pass you this. It is an ointment that helps remove the scars on your face.”


    Sophie took out an ointment from her pocket and


    passed it to her.


    “Okay, thank you, Sophie,” Gabrielle said as she took the ointment and calmly ced it on the table.


    “Gabrielle, the person you should be saying your thanks to isn’t me, but Mr. Morris. He was the one


    who bought the ointment. By the way, Mr. Morris also mentioned that you can visit Sloane from today


    on,” Sophie said calmly.


    Gabrielle’s expression immediately changed. She was thrilled.


    “Really?! I can? I can visit Sloane?” Gabrielle squealed as she stood up and held Sophie’s arms


    excitedly.


    As she thought about it, it seemed like the dinner she cooked for Westley paid its effort. While he had


    not forgiven Lance, at least she could go visit Sloane today!
