Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 359

Mia was the type of person who would not hesitate to be cruel to anyone once she was irritated, while Lacey was the type of person who was tough and not afraid of things. So, it was really not a good thing for these two people to get together.

However, the bystanders didn't understand why Lacey would cause trouble for Gabrielle. It was obvious that Lacey had targeted Gabrielle just now.

"Mia, I don't mean to make things difficult for Miss Jones. I just want to make friends with her." Lacey's expression softened as she said, giving Mia an innocent look.

After all, she was well aware that Mia was Micheal's most adored sister. If she offended Mia, it would be the same as offending Micheal indirectly.

"If you want to make friends, of course, you can. Then Gabrielle will drink this glass of juice instead. If you want to continue drinking, I will accompany you." Although Mia had a bad temper, she was a very loyal person.

Therefore, it was natural for Mia not to accept Lacey's obvious hostility against Gabrielle.

She would definitely never let it go.

"All right, Miss Jones, it's okay for you to make a toast with your juice." Seeing that Mia was so protective of Gabrielle, there was still a bit of unsettled bitterness left in Lacey's heart.

"Gabrielle, this is Cayden's sister, the elder daughter of the Murphy family. Let's have a drink together. Cheers!" Mia nudged Gabrielle's arm and introduced calmly.

"Well, I see. Miss Murphy, nice to meet you," Gabrielle responded as she kept a gentle demeanor.

On the other hand, Vivian viewed Gabrielle's behavior as an act in disguise.

She even felt that Gabrielle was quite skilled at playing the innocent role.

Such a woman always pretended to be innocent, especially in front of men, and could naturally control her own facial expressions very well.

"Miss Jones, Mia doesn't have many friends. I hope you treat her sincerely," in a sisterly manner, Lacey reminded Gabrielle.

"Lacey, Gabrielle is my friend. How we get along with each other is our own business. Now that we have finished drinking the toast, you can go back and have a seat," Mia responded casually. As Mia was a sister adored and protected by her brother, she didn't really care about anyone's feelings.

"Lacey, don't drink too much. It's not a good thing for a girl to drink so much," Micheal said coldly.

Although Micheal said solely to keep them from drinking, Lacey viewed it as an act of care from Micheal for her. Thus, she immediately accepted his words happily.

"I know, Micheal. I will go back to eat now." As she said, Lacey immediately went back obediently.

More people wanted to come over and give Gabrielle a toast, but Mia and Westley stopped them. However, they couldn't stop Gabrielle from drinking herself.

So, in the end, Gabrielle got herself drunk. Looking at Gabrielle lying drunk on the table, Westley reached out and picked her up.

"Excuse me. I'll take her back first." Westley gave out a short remark and left, holding Gabrielle in his arms.

The sturdy figure of Westley fading away as he openly held Gabrielle in his arms only confirmed everybody's assumptions about the two's relationship.

'Mr. Morris is really with this woman?'

Although everyone shared the same thought, no one dared to speak out.

"As I said, Mr. Morris and Miss Jones are my friends. And I don't want any complicated things to spread out." Micheal glanced at the people coldly, naturally knowing what they were thinking.

"Of course, Micheal, I'm not going to talk nonsense. Just as we are afraid of offending you, we are much more afraid to offend Mr. Morris."

That was the truth.

There were, however, those who were not afraid to play with death.

Westley carried Gabrielle to the car. He then carefully put her on the seat so that she could lean against the seat and sleep well. He couldn't help but pat her on the face as he finished properly posi

tioning her. "You are such a fool to drink so much."

Gabrielle groaned slightly as she was patted, her brows wrinkled, and she showed an uncomfortable reaction.

Westley drove very slowly as he was worried that Gabrielle would feel uncomfortable after drinking too much. Yet, at the same time, he wanted to drive back quickly.

He couldn't help but be disappointed with his decision. He regretted agreeing to attend Micheal's birthday party tonight. Several men locked their gazes on Gabrielle as if their eyes were going to pop out of their heads.

However, when the car was halfway through, Gabrielle felt very uncomfortable and started to throw up.

"Hmm..." She vomited.

Westley quickly pulled over the car and got out of it. He then walked around to the other side and pulled Gabrielle down, making her squat on the sidelines.

Gabrielle couldn't help but keep vomiting for a long time.

When Westley saw Gabrielle vomiting heavily, he rushed to the car and took a towel and a water bottle. He then squatted beside her and patted her back gently.

"Gabrielle, are you feeling better?" When he noticed Gabrielle was almost done vomiting, he removed the water bottle cap and handed it to her.

Gabrielle took it and gulped down a mouthful of water. Her drunken expression was now replaced by soberness. Just then, a strong sensation of discomfort developed in her stomach and head, causing her double pain. Not only that, a wave of indescribable emotions washed over her.

She raised her eyes to Westley, an uneasy expression on her face that she couldn't hide. She saw a gloomy expression on the man's face, as he appeared to be very angry.

She drank like a drunkard that it would be strange if he wasn't angry.

"Thank you, Westley." She ultimately came up with a 'thank you' after spending a long time digging through her head for the proper word.

"Gabrielle, how dare you drink so much when you know you can't handle that much? Are you feeling good now?" Westley questioned, giving her a cold look.

He deliberately pretended to be very angry as he felt he couldn't let go of her actions this time.

"I know! I'm feeling bad. I feel too bad now. Westley, I know I was wrong. Don't be angry." Gabrielle tried to hold Westley's hands to stop him from being so angry.

However, the man just glanced at her coldly and snorted.

"Do you know what you did wrong?" as Westley threw a cold glare towards Gabrielle, he asked.

Gabrielle took the towel from his hand and wiped her mouth.

"I shouldn't have drunk so much. But do you know why I drank so much?" With a pitiful expression on her face, Gabrielle tried to coax Westley.

"Because you're happy to go to Micheal's birthday party and those men came to drink with you?" Westley's expression was clearly filled with jealousy, as he stated.

Gabrielle finally realized that this man was simply jealous.

Coincidentally, she drank so much because she was jealous too.

"Westley, I know you are jealous. I drank so much also because I was jealous," Gabrielle said as she stared into his eyes seriously.

In fact, she was feeling a little uncomfortable right now due to the lingering effects of the wine. Now that she had finished vomiting, she felt uncomfortable all over her body.

"Why were you jealous?" Westley thought Gabrielle was just talking nonsense.

He couldn't think of anything he'd done that might possibly make Gabrielle jealous. After all, he was so focused on Gabrielle the entire time that he was completely clueless about what others thought of him.

"Don't you know that as soon as you entered, those women's eyes were all fixed on you, as if they were staring at a piece of delicious meat? They all wanted to stick to you. How could I not be jealous? I really regret letting you go there. That was why I got myself drunk as soon as possible so that you would take me away." Gabrielle vigorously gave out an explanation.
