Lock You In My Heart Chapter 612
Gabrielle couldn’t hear a word these two men were saying to each other since they were speaking in
Thai.
However, she was amazed to discover how soft and gentle Dr. Maniac’s voice sounded. It was a stark
contrast to that ugly name he had.
In fact when Gabrielle first met Doctor Maniac, she immediately felt he was a pretty gentle man. There
was really nothing about his appearance that would make anyone think he was a “maniac”.
That said, when it came to medicine, he had this habit of wanting to dig deep into things, which was
often scary.
That was the real meaning of his name, “maniac”. It simply stood out for his enthusiasm for science
“Doctor Maniac, Star, I’m back,” Gabrielle announced as she walked into the room.
“d to see you back, Gabrielle. Hope you had a good time at your family reunion dinner party.”
Doctor Maniac weed her warmly.
“Well, it wasn’t bad actually. Thank you very much for taking care of Star.” Gabrielle was truly grateful
to the man. She couldn’t help but notice how happy Star seemed to be with Dr. Maniac.
“You don’t have to thank me, Gabrielle, really. I like Star very much. It’s a pleasure for me to take care
of him.” Doctor Maniac really meant it. He liked Star very much.
The young boy was rather calm, sensible and very smart.
Who would not like such an adorable child?
Before living in the forest, Doctor Maniac lived cloistered in hisboratory. He spent his days and nights
experimenting again and again. At the time, he had little chance of meeting people, let alone children.
When he went to live in the forest, his chances were even less.
It was because of this that he didn’t like children very much. However, Star was an exception.
The kid was so adorable that even someone like Doctor Maniac, who seldom talked to children,
instantly became fond of him.
The two had nomunication blockage as they both spoke Thai. Moreover, Star had a genuine
interest in medicine, which made themunication between the two go even smoother. Doctor
Maniac was extremely happy to be with such a kid. When Star saw Gabrielle, he greeted her gently in
English, “Mom.” Gabrielle was stunned upon hearing what the kid just said. She ran straight to Star and
looked at him in disbelief. “Star, w-what did you just call me?” “Mom.” The little boy repeated what he
said. Although his ent wasn’t quite right and sounded a bit awkward, what he said moved Gabrielle
all the same. “
Oh, my God! You… you really called me Mom! Star, this is the best gift I’ve ever received.” Gabrielle
was overwhelmed with emotions. She was about to take Star in her arms and cover him with kisses
when she recalled that he was injured. Gabrielle turned to look at Doctor Maniac and asked seriously,
“You’re the one who taught him English, isn’t it?” “Yes, you’re right. The fact is Star has a great talent
for learning. I just taught him a few words and he began to speak more or less fluently. He’s quite
impressive.” Doctor maniac was a man slow to praise. So if he praised Star, it meant the little boy really
deserved it.

At this moment, a thought suddenly crossed Gabrielle’s mind and she nced at Doctor Maniac
expectantly. Of course, Dr. Maniac quickly noticed the way Gabrielle was looking at him. He gazed at
her and said, “Gabrielle, whatever you want to say, just spit it out. I feel very nervous each time you
look at me that way.” Gabrielle slowly sat at the edge of the bed and said in earnest, “I was curious to
know how manynguages you speak.” In fact, Gabrielle and Westley had been discussing about
finding a teacher to help Star learn English. Dr. Maniac seemed to be the perfect man for that. Besides
being their friend and getting along well with Star, Dr. Maniac was perfectly bilingual, able to speak
English and Thai fluently. In addition, he was a doctor. It would be perfect if he could stay to take care
of Star.
“Well, I speak Mandarin, Thai, English, French… I think I speak seven or eightnguages. Why?”
Although he asked, Dr. Maniac had a rough idea about why Gabrielle asked him such a question.
Gabrielle was stunned. “You speak seven or eightnguages? Doctor Maniac, you’re just incredible.”
Gabrielle gave him a thumbs up.
“Well, my profession requires me to be
as learned as possible. Many original medical works don’t have any trantion, so I’d to learn a few
morenguages.” Doctor Maniac didn’t think there was anything amazing about him speaking multiple
languages. For doctors, it was normal to master a couple ofnguages.
It was even moremon for people doing scientific research. Too many items they needed were
labeled in foreignnguages, and they couldn’t afford to make a mistake, thus they needed to learn as
manynguages as possible.
The expression on Gabrielle’s face suddenly became serious. “Well, I won’t beat around the bush. Star
speaks Thai fluently, but I want him to learn the basics of English. After he recovers, he would go to
kindergarten. Therefore, I would like you to teach him English. Don’t worry. I’ll pay.” Gabrielle looked at
the man expectantly.
“Gabrielle, it would be my honor to teach Star. Everything we have here in Antawood was offered to us
by you and Mr. Morris. So if there’s something I can do for Star I would do it with all my heart. It’s out of
the question that I take money from you. Besides, I really like this boy,” Doctor Maniac replied sincerely.
“It’s settled then. It’s up to you to help Star master English. If you need anything, just let me know. I’ll do
my best to amodate you.” Gabrielle was overjoyed.
She had been really worried about who would be the suitable teacher for Star. She was really happy
now that she knew exactly who would be the one to teach her beloved son. Not only was he extremely
qualified to take on the task, but he was also both friends with her and with the kid. Star would definitely
learn better with Dr. Maniac than with any other teacher.
“Gabrielle, I promise I would do everything in my power to help Star. However, I honestly think that Star
is smarter than I am. I won’t have much to teach him.” Doctor Maniac was a man who valued honesty
above anything else. At times his words would be harsh, but they would always be sincere. So when he
said that Star was really gifted, he meant it.
“I’ll buy a whole set of books for you tomorrow, Doctor Maniac.” Gabrielle was really excited at this
point. She actually wanted to rush out right away and buy a pile of textbooks for Doctor Maniac.
“Come on, Gabrielle, no hurry. We don’t need them for the moment. I’ll tell you when it’s time.” Doctor
Maniac was a little amused by Gabrielle’s excitement. However, he could totally understand her. She
took Star as her biological son and was illing to do anything for him. “Okay.” Gabrielle agreed. It was at
this moment that Westley came in. He immediately noticed the excited expression on Gabrielle’s face
and that slightly puzzled him.
“What’s the good news?” Westley asked, gazing at Gabrielle. “Westley, guess what! Doctor Maniac has
promised to teach Star English. Oh, that’s not all… Star just called me Mom in English. Can you
imagine that? I’m so excited,” Gabrielle spluttered excitedly. Westley finally understood why Gabrielle
was so happy. anyone in her shoes would be excited by such good news. “Wow, it’s truly amazing
indeed. I didn’t expect that Star would pick up English so quickly.
” Westley was really impressed. as he spoke, he put his arm around Gabrielle’s shoulder. “I can’t
believe he’s so good either. Dr. Maniac tells me he will have no trouble teaching him.” “Dad, Mom.”
Star’s shy voice suddenly sounded. He spoke in English this time again, pronouncing each word
clearly. Westley and Gabrielle were both shocked. They stared at Star with an indecipherable
expression. “Star, can you say it again?” Gabrielle asked gently.
She was overwhelmed with emotions each time she heard him call her like that. She was touched to
the point that she almost cried. It was just like seeing your child call you for the first time. The ‘oy was
indescribable. “Hi, Dad, Mom. I’m Star. I love you.” Star did his best toplete the sentence slowly.
Once he was done, he looked expectantly at Gabrielle and Westley with his deep blue eyes, waiting for
their praise. This time, Gabrielle was moved to tears. “Star, you’re awesome. We love you too,” she
said, wiping a tear from her cheek. ? t this point, Gabrielle couldn’t control herself anymore. She ced
that burning kiss on the kid’s forehead.
