“I can’t even understand you, Gabrielle You keep saying you’re busy. What wile would prefer rather to be somewhere else than take care of her injured husband at home?” he asked, this mouth Ewisted in indignation.

Westley really couldn’t lathom why she was insistent or working in the cake shop and claiming to be busy.

Having given her his credit card, he gutused she would stop working at once.

He wasn’t pleased at all to see her working. He couldn’t bear the thought of those male guests leering at her.

Even if she wore the most modest. clothes those men wouldn’t still mind to flirt with her. Couldn’t she understand that?

See, Westley, I only work in the cake shop. I’m neither doing anything illegal nor cheating on you with other then. So now, tell me what you’ll like to eat, and I’ll get it for you.” Gabrielle digressed at

Westley knew he couldn’t stop her since she was insistent on going out.

“I want you back at five o’clock.” Westley announced in an imperious voice.

“I’ll be back at six o’clock,” Gabrielle Sitid immediately. She wanted to stay longer in order that she might help in the shop. Sirice Sandra didn’t accept tuition frorni her, Gabrielle thought it wise to assist her in the cake shop. That way, she would feel much more at ease when she worked in the shop.

“Five o’clock, or you are going nowhere!” The coldness in Westley’s voice didn’t flicker

“Six o’clock!”

“You stay at home, then.”

Taking a step back, Gabrielle inhaled dreply. “I’ll return at half past live.” .

Westley used and red all her “Alright, go ahead,” he said, letting her

Not wasting any more time, Gabrielle grabbed her backpack and bounded outside. The car she had booked was there already, honking impatiently.

Sandra taught Gabrielle for about two ar three hours before she let her go help in the shop

Macy was in the shop when Gabrielle came down. She was always there on weekends, so Gabrielle had someone she could talk with when they both had nothing to do in the shop.

“How have you been, Gabrielle? And how has studying with my mother been?” Macy asked. concerned about how Gabrielle’s study was going

She admired Gabrielle”s sacrificial spirit so well. Gabrielle had decided to learn how to make cakes just for her family.

It was very kind and thoughtful of her Macy knew that she herself wouldn’t

have done i thing like that she preferred to buy someone a birthday or festival present than to make it herself.

In fact, Leaming to make things by herself was in very tining process to her. “It’s been fine. Today, I attempted to make a sponge cake myself. With the Willy Sandra has taken her time to patiently teach mne these things, I am sure I should finish my study by next week.” Gabrielle said as she helped Macy pack cakes for a guest.

“That’s great to hear.” Macy grinned. “By the way, did you enjoy the cakes you took home yesterday? I want to know what you think about them. And my mother also wants me to give you some other flavors to take home to your family today. We want to know what you think about them all. But you could pick whichever flavors you prefer.” Macy felt too lazy to help her select the flavors.

Morcover, she thought Gabrielle would better enjoy the cakes she chose herself.

“Thanks so much. Macy. But I can’t accept more cakes today. My family loved the flavors yesterday. Why wouldn’t we love them when they were

made by Carnestly

Sandra?”

Gabrielle

Said

Macy burst into laughter, amused at how Gabnelle sounded so serious. “You know Gabrielle. I find it funny that you praise my mother this earnestly.” Milcy said between mouthfuls of laughter, “Knowing that you think so highly of her cakes will make her really happy.”

 

“I’m being honest, Macy. But I won’t accept any cakes today. Moreover, 1911 be leaving by five o’clock today because i have to attend to something.” Gabrielle said, still refusing the cakes.

Realizing that Westley hadn’t even seemed to enjoy cakes, Gabrielle saw no reason to take any more home today. Besides, he didn’t deserve such delicious treat, having given her so much stress the previous night and having annoyed her today, a

“What is that? Is it something I can help you with?” Macy asked with so much concem.

“Don’t worry, Macy. I can fix it myself.” Gabrielle smiled.

She preferred to sort out her issues

herself thai to pester other people with them.

“Alright, then. But don’t hesitate to let me know if you want me to help you. You’re not just my mother’s apprentice: you are also may classmate and friend,” Macy said, her voice soft and sincere.

Gabrielle grimmed, her heart warmed by Macy’s kindness. It was a really comforting thing to Gabrielle that, in these past twenty years since her parents left her an orphan, she had always met such beautiful people like Miry who showed genuine concern for her

Gabrielle gazed at Macy, held her hand and squeezed it slightly. “I will.”

She left the cake shop at five o’clock, thinking she would get home in thirty minutes by car. She stood by the roadside, waiting for the car. Just then, a white car pulled over, and the beautiful face of Mia peeked out of the rolled down window

“It’s really you, Gabrielle. I thought I’d mistaken you when I saw you from a distance. Are you waiting for a car here or are you waiting for someone?” Mia

askord quickly

“I’m waiting for 1 cac Actually. I’en taking a taxi.”

“Where are you headed? I could give you a nde if you don’t mind. And I want to talk to you about something Do you have some time to spilte, beauty?Mia whistled, raising her eyebrows.

*Please, Gabrielle. Don’t say no. I really need your help on this. I had wanted to 15k you out before now. I really am fortunate to have met you here today.” Mia said, her face bright with a smile. She looked like a lovely white fox.

“What’s the matter?” Gabrielle asked. Although she had at first wanted to refuse whatever Mia’s request was, she decided against it, knowing it would make her feel bad. She could see the expectation in Mia’s eyes and couldn’t bear to disappoint her.

“Michael’s birthday is around the corner, and I want to get him something grand. For a few days now, I’ve been undecided on what kind of present I should get for him. Then I guessed that you would have an idea of these things since you have pot Mr. Lu. So Gabrielle, can you help me

choose a gift? I promise it won‘t take much of your time,” Mia said, winking and acting cute.

This softened Gabrielle’s heart,

“So you want to get a present for your brother?” she asked, realizing that Mia was picking up a birthday present for Michael

Until now, she never knew that his birthday and Westley’s were on the same month. The Christmas was fast approaching

“Exactly. You know, I have to get him something great, being his only well mannered and obedient sister. Come on, Gabrielle. Get into the car please.” Mia beckoned her in, opening the door quickly

Gabrielle hesitated at first. Then, she made up her mind to get in Picking a gift Would not take so much time. And Westley would not get so angry if she returned a few minutes late, would he?

Even if he did get angry, she would make up for her lateness by preparing dinner for him. That should appease him.

She felt less guilly now as she thought

“Fasten your seatbelt. Gabrielle.” Mia chuckled, starting the car. “You are about to fly with the experienced driver Mia!”

Mia sure deserved the title of “experienced driver because she drove so crazily. flying through the traffic so thal Gabrielle’s eyes whirin and she felt sick,

feeling like puking.
