Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 73
A disturbing idea surfaced in Gabrielle's mind. Maybe Westley was still with Holly. If Gabrielle called Westley, she might interrupt their pleasure.
Then Westley would hate Gabrielle even more.
The very thought made Gabrielle feel as if her throat was blocked by shredded newspaper.
"Well, never mind." Mia didn't press Gabrielle any further. To be honest, it would be embarrassing for Gabrielle to let her husband see her like this.
"Gabrielle, I think I should call my brother. Even though he'll tell me off, it's better than staying here all night." Gritting her teeth, Mia took out her phone and dialed Micheal's number.
"Micheal, I'm at the police station with Gabrielle. Come and bail us out." Mia told Micheal the address of the police station and then hung up the phone.
"Gabrielle, my brother is going to skin me alive later. You've got to help me. Your words will definitely work on him." Mia looked at Gabrielle seriously.
Gabrielle could tell that Mia was really scared of her brother.
"Oh, don't worry. When Micheal gets here, I'll protect you. I won't let him hurt you." Gabrielle patted Mia's shoulder gently to comfort her.
About ten minutes later, a tall man appeared in front of Gabrielle and Mia. As he stood there, glaring at them, his face darkened and his eyes became like daggers. He looked very angry and intimidating. No wonder that Mia was afraid of Micheal. Even Gabrielle was a little scared now!
"Gabrielle, this is my brother," Mia whispered. Mia was such a coward that she had already hidden behind Gabrielle.
"Mia, quit hiding!" Micheal cast a cold glance at Mia over Gabrielle's shoulder.
How could Mia dare to face her brother like this? Mia knew that, if she did, her brother would rip shreds off her, so she stayed where she was and held Gabrielle's arm tightly.
