Lock You In My Heart Chapter 535
That night, Westley didn’t return, nor did Gabrielle get any news about his whereabouts.
Gabrielle had been waiting from afternoon. It was past midnight and she didn’t feel sleepy at all.
Westley wasn’t back, and she had no information about him. It started to worry her, as he had never
been sote. If he had some work, he’d make it a point to inform her about it.
“Mrs. Morris, please have some food. I’ll heat it up for you. You can have someter too. Shall I bring it
for you?” Jenna had tried to convince Gabrielle to eat but it was in vain. She heated up the dishes three
times since the dinner was served. However, Gabrielle didn’t seem to have any appetite at all. She was
too anxious to even feel the pangs of hunger.
Gabrielle was restless because of Westley’s absence. She couldn’t calm herself down. So, quite
naturally she had no appetite or wish to eat.
“Jenna, I told you already, I don’t want to eat anything. I’ll have my meal after Westleyes back,”
Gabrielle said calmly. She was trying to lookposed and rxed, but she looked extremely
mncholic.
Jenna was starting to get worried about Gabrielle. But she couldn’t force her to eat. She could only
keep reminding and requesting her to have her meal.
She felt helpless. Being a maid, there was nothing much she could do.
“Alright, Mrs. Morris. Whenever you want to eat something, please tell me. I’ll heat up when you want it.
Till then, shall I bring you some desserts and fruits?” Jenna decided not to force Gabrielle to have
dinner. She decided to at least make Gabrielle have some fruits.
“Okay, Jenna!” Gabrielle said helplessly. She sat still on the sofa, and kept staring outside.
The concern and worry in Gabrielle’s eyes, started to trouble Jenna. She too started to get anxious.
Quietly, she went into the kitchen and brought some fruits and drinks for Gabrielle.
“Mrs. Morris, please eat something first. Mr. Morris told you that he wille back today, then he will
definitely keep his words. I’m sure he won’t lie to you.” Jenna tried her best tofort Gabrielle. She
didn’t know where Westley was. Thus, she didn’t know what to tell Gabrielle.
“Hmm. Thank you, Jenna.” Gabrielle nodded at Jenna and smiled. She was able to understand what
the maid was trying to do and was touched by her concern.
Jenna didn’t say anything more. She ced the fruits and drinks on the table and left.
Gabrielle drank some water but couldn’t bring herself to eat anything. She just sat there quietly, with
her eyes fixed at the window. She was only waiting for Westley toe back. Sitting there idly and
waiting for him, she didn’t even realize when she fell asleep on the sofa. When Gabrielle woke up a few
hourster, she quickly looked around in the room. No one was there. She took a quick look at her
watch. It was already four o’clock, but Westley hadn’te back yet.
Gabrielle couldn’t stop herself. It had started to make her more worried. She lifted the nket and
wrapped it around her body. Huddled in the warm nket, she walked out of the house. ter had
been standing outside the vi all the time. He was extremely vignt. When he saw Gabrielleing
out, he instinctively stopped her. “Mrs. Morris, why are youing out at such ate hour?” “ter,
Westley hasn’te back yet. Can you contact him? Or at least tell me where he has gone?
Then, I will be relieved and feel at peace,” Gabrielle said to ter. She decided to directly put across
her worries. Saying nothing, ter just looked at Gabrielle, coldly and seriously. “Mrs. Morris, I do not
know anything. Rather, we have no right to enquire about Mr. Morris’ whereabouts. If he doesn’t tell us,
then we do not ask. But you can rest assured that Mr. Morris will be fine.” “What do you mean that he
will be fine? It’s sote, and he still hasn’te back yet. How can I not worry about him?
Call him now, please. I want to know where he is!” Gabrielle was already anxious. She started to urge
ter to make a phone call. “Please, Mrs. Morris. …” Before ter could finish his words, several cars
drove past the gate from outside. They all lined up near the vi. Once the cars stopped, Gabrielle ran
over towards them. She knew Westley must be in one of them. Sure enough, the door of one of the
cars opened and Westley got out of that car. As a wave of relief passed over her, Gabrielle rushed
ahead. Without thinking anything, she just threw herself at him and held him tightly in an embrace.
“Westley! Damn it! Where have you been? You were away for a day and a night, and I knew nothing
about your whereabouts. No update or information about your safety! Didn’t
you know I’ll be so worried about you?” Gabrielle started scolding him.
Westley’s heart felt a bittersweet ache when he heard her.
“Sorry! I’m so sorry for leaving you like that. Sorry for making you worry!” Westley slowly pulled himself
away from her arms. One look at her worried and aggrieved face made him feel guilty.
Before leaving, he had thought that the problem would be solved soon. He hadn’t expected it to take so
long.
“You know that I get worried about you. Then why didn’t you tell me? Where had you gone for so long?”
Gabrielle asked angrily.
“Something important hade up and I had to deal with. I’ll tell you everything but first let’s go inside.
It’s raining!” Westley immediately took her hand in his and rushed into the vi.
It had started with a drizzle but again it began to rain heavily outside. Gabrielle’s mood worsened when
she heard the rain hammering against the window.
Looking closely at him, she said, “Westley, are you hurt?” Gabrielle was so mad at him that she didn’t
realize it earlier. But now when she held him close, a faint smell of blood filled her nose.
As she came closer to him and sniffed, the smell of blood seemed to have got stronger.
She looked at him with a raised eyebrow. Westley was dressed in ck, so Gabrielle couldn’t see
anything. But she could smell it!
“No, there’s nothing. I’m not hurt. Don’t worry now, Gabrielle,” Westley tried tofort her by his
words. “Really? I don’t believe you. Take off your clothes quickly. Let me have a look.” Gabrielle wasn’t
able to convince herself to believe his words. The smell of blood was too strong and she could feel that
something was wrong. She waited for him to start undressing, but Westley seemed unbothered. Seeing
him being reluctant to take off his clothes, Gabrielle decided she had to take action by herself. “Wait a
minute, Gabrielle. We’re in the living room. Let’s go back to our room. I’ll take my clothes off for you.
Okay?
” Westley grabbed her hands quickly before she could touch his clothes. He didn’t expect that his wife
would be such an open-minded person. Although only the two of them were staying in the vi, it was
improper for her to take off his clothes in public. There were a lot of bodyguards outside and they could
see him. IELS “Oh! Come on now. Why do you have to take off your clothes in your room? It’s the
same if you take off your clothes here. You are a man. There is nothing to be afraid of or feel shy!”
Gabrielle was a little angry. Her worry was increasing by each passing moment The more he hesitated
to take off his clothes, the more suspicious she felt. Gabrielle was unwilling to give up. She immediately
tried to squirm her hands free from his grip.
She knew he was making excuses, so she had to take off his clothes. Westley felt helpless but he tried
tough it away when he saw her being so stubborn and adamant like that. “Okay, okay. I’ll let you take
them off. But you have to answer my question first. Why didn’t you eat your meals properly and sleep
well? You didn’t have your dinner and went to sleep on the sofa. My heart aches when you don’t take
care of yourself.” Westley still held her hand firmly and looked at her reproachfully. He rushed back as
soon as he heard ter’s report about Gabrielle’s restlessness and anxiety.
The problem at hand hadn’t been solved yet. He still needed a little bit more time, but he had to rush
back. As soon as he heard that Gabrielle had fallen asleep on the sofa and didn’t have dinner, he
couldn’t stop himself. He had no choice but to return. Though d to see her being so concerned and
worried about him, he was a little angry at her too. He wasn’t pleased to know that she hadn’t slept or
eaten anything. “Really? Now you will go ahead and me me! You left without telling me where you
were going. You didn’t even tell me when you’de back. So, quite naturally I was going to be
worried about you.

I had no appetite at all and couldn’t sleep in your absence,” Gabrielle shouted at him angrily. She was
really mad at him now. Westley knew that he was wrong, so he kept quiet. Though she yelled at him,
he didn’t dare to say anything more. He silently admitted his mistake. “Well, you’re right Gabrielle!
Indeed it’s my fault this time. I shouldn’t have left without telling you in advance. It’s quite natural for
you to keep waiting for me day and night in fear. I’ll ept whatever punishment you want to give me.”
Gabrielle squinted and looked at him with a snicker. She couldn’t believe that Westley was epting
his fault and was ready for punishment. “Really? Then take off your clothes now,” she said without
losing a moment.
