Lock You In My Heart Chapter 472


    A rough idea grew in Rose’s heart as she gazed at the confidence and excitement on Gabrielle’s face.


    No matter what happened, as long as Gabrielle understood what she said, it was enough. Getting


    along with a woman of intelligence wasn’t difficult. It didn’t take her long to understand things.


    “It’s good that you understand. I told you, you’re a smart woman. I can’t be wrong about that.” The


    corners of Rose’s lips curled with a faint smile.


    “That’s because you taught me well.” Gabrielle meant every word. She liked the crossbow the most.


    With it in her hand, she felt like a gant hero from the ancient times.


    “This one might be a little difficult for you. Have you yed with this one before?” Rose took something


    from her waist and showed it to Gabrielle.


    Gabrielle took a deep breath the moment she caught a glimpse of it. It was a grenade. One wrong


    move and someone would most definitely be killed.


    On top of that, getting one wasn’t easy at all. It was even rarer in Antawood. Ordinary people would not


    have the chance to see it, let alone have the opportunity to use one.


    It was way too dangerous. Gabrielle had neverid her hands on one before.


    “I’ve taught her how to use one before we came here. After all, I am not in good terms with some of the


    people here. Self-defense is a must,” Lance answered Rose’s question for Gabrielle.


    Rose was reeling Gabrielle in with her aggressive-defensive strategy. She tried to instill some ideas


    into Gabrielle’s mind as they chatted casually. This way, Gabrielle might unconsciously blurt out the


    truth if she let her guard down.


    The idea of it was quite ingenious. Lance knew it. After all, he had experienced it first hand. He was


    afraid that Gabrielle might not be aware of it since she had never crossed paths with Rose’s kind


    before. To her, Rose wasn’t an enemy and it was very easy for her to not be vignt.


    If they took Gabrielle by force, they had no assurance that she would spit out a word. However, this


    way of persuasion might let them find out some things once she had let her guard down.


    “Alright. I guess I don’t have to teach her anymore. Let’s go.” Rose said nothing more. She proceeded


    to walk with a camouge bag on her back.


    Gabrielle and Lance also ad backpacks with them. In addition to a crossbow, there were a million other


    things one needed to survive the outdocs “Gabrielle, carry your bag.” Lance took her hat er hands and


    put it on his back. He had one bag on both of his showers.


    fine. My bag isn’t that heavy anvwa a rry it myself,” Gabrielle said. “Come on. We still have a long

    before we reach the ce we hunt pheasants at. Wild animals are wary of the Vige since they know t


    t es be in grave danger once they get close. That’s why we have to go deep into the woods. Unless


    we’re


    o u gh to meet some by the vige,” Lance exined. “I know. It’s won they beat that hare near the


    fence Gabrielle asked out of curiosity.


    Yes avaly happens. We should go further inte be forest today. Stay close so you don’t get lost,” Lance


    warned.


    s rried about Gabrielle. If they got lost deep into the woods, they cunt not be able to find a way out.


    “Yeah… I know. But I get this feeling that Rose has an


    ulterior motive for taking us hunting with her,” Gabrielle whispered. Anxiety filled her veins. Whether it


    was her sensitivity or intuition, she had always felt like things were not as simple as they seemed. Bain


    had me under surveince before. It’s odd for him to let Rose take us out of the vige. Is she plotting


    something?’ Gabrielle thought.


    Everything triggered Gabrielle’s anxiety.


    If things went on like this, she felt like she would copse even before Bain did anything to her. It was


    incredibly torturous.


    “Rose isn’t in the mood to hunt pheasants. She won’t evene out of the vige if she could help it.


    Originally, Rose had nned on taking you with her alone. This is her scheme. Be careful. No matter


    what happens, stay by side. I’m the only person you can trust here,” Lance said in a whisper.


    Gabrielle knew what Rose meant even if Lance didn’t tell her.


    It wasn’t Rose’s job to hunt pheasants.


    “I know. Hurry up. Let’s not go too far behind Rose.” Gabrielle took wide strides to chase after Rose.


    “You guys are too slow. We didn’te here for a walk. We’re hunting. We might not be able to find


    anything if we get there toote.” Rose turned to nce at them.


    “I’m sorry. In Antawood, I travel by car. Very rarely do I walk this much. It’s hard for me to catch up. I’m


    sorry I dragged Lance with me,” Gabrielle exined as she walked up to Rose.


    “It’s fine. I don’t know if you would be able to make it there. It’s an hour’s worth of travel,” Rose


    reminded.


    “It’s okay. I can hold on. It’s not that far.” Gabrielle nodded to assure her. “Let’s go. I know youre not


    pretentious. If you really can’t st tell me. You two follow me carefully. The path I know is the safest we


    get there. Bain has set up a lot of t. s round this ce. You might get hurt if you take the wrong way.”


    Rose Manued to walk forward. Gabrielle had expected the traps. However, hearing that the tran r


    ightened her a little. In an instant, she unders t h ose took them into the woods. It was to remind them


    not to run away without permission. A death Da awaited them if they acted rashly. Why would’


    uisively?’ Gabrielle thought to herself. She was reminded of what Lance had told her yesterday. He


    want nye her escape. Now, that n sound siculously impossible.


    o bain’s vige wasn’t an easy job. O Gabrielle took a cautious nce at Lance le knew exactly what


    she meant. “Gabrielle… Let’s wait it out. We wille up with a n once Bryce wakes up.” Lance


    despised the feeling of being under someone else’s control. It was reminiscent of having a knife against


    his neck. He could hardly breathe. It made him feel powerless.


    After all, as the eldest son of the Carter family and the CEO of the Carter Group, Lance had always had


    the power over everything.


    However, now, his life was in the hands of someone else. His carelessness could cost him his life. “It’s


    the only thing we could do now. Rose took us out here to give us an idea of the situation. If we leave


    without permission, we are going to face imminent death.” Gabrielle was not a fool. She knew exactly


    what was going on. And even if she wasn’t smart, Rose’s hint was too obvious. Nobody could possibly


    miss her indications.
