Lock You In My Heart Chapter 611
Most people would stay at home to apany their families this hour tonight.
Therefore, Benny was naturally surprised when he saw Gabrielle and Westleying towards the
ward.
Gabrielle was equally surprised at the sight of Benny’s appearance when he turned around. He looked
much thinner than the time she met him a few months ago. His eyes looked exhausted and he had
stubbles on his chin. His overall appearance looked worn out.
He had been staying in the ward for days and nights, and there was no trace of radiance in his eyes.
He gave off the aura of an old man who had experienced many vicissitudes of life.
Gabrielle could guess why he became like this. It was because he had been taking care of Sloane all
this time.
However, she didn’t feel sorry for him nor was she moved by him. After all, it was a fact that he owed
this much to Sloane at least.
“We came here to visit Sloane. I used to celebrate this day every year with her and make wishes
together.” Gabrielle went straight to the bedside with the intention to set up the flowers she brought.
However, she just put it aside when she saw that there was already a bunch of fresh red roses in the
vase at the head of the bed. Of course, she knew that it was Benny who put it, so she didn’t bother to
change it.
“Sloane, I’m here to celebrate the festival with you. You have to wake up soon, okay?” Gabrielle softly
talked to the unconscious patient before putting an envelope with money inside under Sloane’s pillow,
only to find that there was already a simr one under it.
She knew who put it without much thought.
A bitter chuckle escaped out of her lips.
Since Sloane’s mother passed away, Benny had never given a nce to her well-being, let alone
gifting her the money.
Now, it seemed that he had learned of ways how to make it up, but it was toote.
“Gabrielle, Sloane’s condition is very stable now.” Benny awkwardly tried to make a conversation with
Gabrielle.
“I’m aware. I heard about her condition from my doctor friend who hade to check on her. By the
way, Mr. Hall, you have been here for a long time, but she still hasn’t woken up yet. I don’t think it’s
necessary for you to stay here any longer. Now that I’m back here, I will be responsible for taking care
of Sloane from now on,” Gabrielle said calmly while looking at him seriously. It seemed that Benny’s
presence didn’t affect Sloane much anyway,
which meant that it was useless for him to apany her any longer. “Gabrielle, what do you mean by
that?” Realizing that she was forbidding him from seeing Sloane again as before, Benny couldn’t
ept it. How could that be! She couldn’t drive him away just like that! “Mr. Hall, you’re such a smart
man. How could you not vflestand what my words mean?” Gabrielle looked at him coldly as she
questioned back as an answer.
“Gabrielle, how can I leave just like this? Can’t you wait for Sloane to wake up first? If she wants me to
leave when she akes up, I will leave, okay?” It had been two months since Benny had been taking care
of Sloane and he had already let go of his grudge. Now, all he hoped sincerely was for Sloane to wake
up soon.
“Well…”
Before Gabrielle could refuse again, Westley interrupted, “Gabrielle, how about we give Mr. Hall a
chance? Since Doctor Maniac starts to cure Sloane, there’s a possibility that she will wake up. Like Mr.
Hall said, if Sloane doesn’t want to see him when she wakes up, we will never let him appear in front of
her again.” Westley held Gabrielle’s hand and gave her a reassuring squeeze. fter hesitating for a
while, Gabrielle fell deep in thought and said nothing more.
“Gabrielle, I’ve heard that you were injured in Bangkok. It’s such a relief to see youe back safe and
sound.” Benny spoke joyfully as he tried to lighten the atmosphere. “Should I thank you for your
concern?” Gabrielle said in a sarcastic tone. Benny didn’t react to Gabrielle’s disdainful tone towards
him. He knew that Gabrielle had the right to hate him, especially after Sloane was hurt badly like this.
He pursed his lips and said, “Gabriel
le, I was really worried about you…”
“Mr. Hall, you don’t have to act this way. We don’t need your concern,” Gabrielle interrupted him rudely
before he could finish his sentence.
“Gabrielle, since it’s gettingte, we should go back. Have you forgotten that we promised to celebrate
the festival with Star and others?” Westley reminded Gabrielle softly. He didn’t want the quarrel to
break out between her and Benny again. He knew that she had so much anger inside her which was all
directed towards Benny.
“Well, I know. How could I forget my promise I made to Star? Let’s go back now, or else we would be
toote.” Gabrielle didn’t want to stay here any longer either as she was aware that she would end up
quarrelling with Benny if she stayed here longer.
“Mr. Hall will continue taking care of Sloane. Rest assured.” Westley held Gabrielle’s hand and was
about to leave.
Benny’s voice sounded, “Mr. Morris, Gabrielle, you don’t need to worry. I will be taking care of Sloane
well as usual.”
Without responding, Gabrielle ignored him and strode out with Westley.
Even after getting in the car, her mood was still bad.
“Don’t be angry. Today is the day of family reunion when you should spend your time happily.” Sensing
her anger, Westley leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

“Westley, what do you think Benny is trying to do by pretending to be good-natured and affectionate?”
Gabrielle asked suspiciously.
“Gabrielle, would you rather want Benny to behave coldly then?” Westley raised his eyebrows and
asked back while looking at Gabrielle. Suddenly, Gabrielle didn’t know how to answer that question.
“What I mean is, no matter what Benny did, it’s a matter between him and Sloane in the end. Let’s talk
about it after Sloane wakes up, alright? If she really doesn’t want to see him at that time, I will make
him leave forever.”
Westley tried to persuade Gabrielle, pointing out the facts and letting her know where she stood in this
kind of matter. No matter how good the rtionship between her and Sloane was, she was nothing
more than a close friend of Sloane and she had no right to interfere in the other’s private matters after
all. There were some matters that she should not meddle in, and it was up to Sloane to make the
decision. “You are right. I won’t think too much about it anymore. I’m just waiting for Sloane to wake up.
I’m so worried.” Gabrielle’s mood was inexplicable. Knowing that she was about to see Star when she
got home, she tried to adjust her mood. She only wanted to be happy when she was with Star and
nothing else. The road was clear and they were not caught up in any traffic, so they ended uping
back in a short time.
When they arrived at Half Moon Bay, the first thing they saw was the sight of Rose and Sophie making
pies at the table. s of now, Sophie was instructing Rose how to properly make it as she had never
made pies herself before. “Sophie, Rose, we are back!” Gabrielle greeted them happily as soon as she
came in. “You came back at the right time. We have just begun to make pies. Come and join us. Look
at this. Since it’s my first time to make it, it’s so ugly.” Rose had a clear estimation of her ability in
making pies. She knew that the pies she made didn’t look so good. Gabrielle chuckled.
“It doesn’t matter. Everyone makes mistakes at the first time. You will be betterter. Where is
Star?” she asked while looking around. “He’s sleeping upstairs. I fed him a bowl of soup before he fell
asleep, then we came downstairs to make pies. Doctor Maniac is staying with him upstairs. I am not
sure if he has woken up or not. But Star and Doctor Maniac are getting along well with each other for
sure,” Rose said as she looked at Gabrielle. “I see. I’ll go upstairs to see how Star is doing. You two
continue to make pies. I’lle down to apany you after that,” Gabrielle eagerly said as she
couldn’t wait to go upstairs and apany Star.
When she gently pushed the door of Star’s room, she saw Star lying on the bed while Doctor Maniac
was talking to him in a low voice beside him.
