Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 57
"Yes, tell me what's wrong?" Gabrielle stood in shock as he roared abruptly. She tried to comprehend what had just happened as she looked upon him with a face, vacant with emotion.
"When did I ask you to tell me about Bryce? Do you not understand what Bryce did? It doesn't matter to me whether Bryce is or was a good brother or not. He is a sinner in my eyes. Bryce chose to seduce my fiancée. He took her away from me and eloped. I was then faced with the Jones asking you to marry me instead, like it was some kind of compensation." Gabrielle felt the pain of Westley's words, as if he had a sharp knife stabbing into her heart, leaving her breathless.
"Westley, I don't think it's fair for you to say that. There were two people involved in this situation. How well do you know Bryce and Nellie? Do you really think my brother would have taken Nellie away if she didn't agree? Both lovers need to share a mutual affection to elope. Not everything in this situation can be blamed on my brother." Gabrielle felt anger exploding out of her as she shouted at Westley.
Bryce was to blame for all of this. He was the one who took Nellie away! She was the daughter of the Collins. What kind of people were in that family? Could Bryce have taken Nellie away if she wasn't willing to elope?
Why could Westley only put the blame on Bryce? It wasn't fair. Both Nellie and Bryce were to blame if something was wrong.
"Bryce is expected to take the responsibility for this type of situation, Gabrielle. He is a man! You care so much about him that you forget that not everything he does is acceptable." Westley's face was stern as he shouted at Gabrielle, acting completely irrational.
"All I'm doing is telling you the truth about the situation. My brother cannot be blamed for all of this. Nellie is the one to leave with him. She has to take responsibility for some of it." Gabrielle's voice gradually became weaker.
The atmosphere was always unpleasant when Westley defeated Gabrielle.
"Gabrielle, I know you like Bryce so much but even if he made a million mistakes that hurt you, would you still forgive him unconditionally?" Westley was infuriated by Gabrielle. He looked at her with such emptiness that he had the desire to smash her head in. He wanted to know if there was something wrong with her brain to make her act so stupid.
"I...," Gabrielle stared at Westley in astonishment. Her mind had a lot to say, but she was unable to speak the words.
"I really don't think I've met anyone as stupid as you are, Gabrielle. It's clear to see that Bryce and the Jones are in the wrong," Westley said, in a cold manner.
