Lock You In My Heart
Chapter 72
Gabrielle was a slightly surprised. She didn't expect to find out Jax and Benny were cousins. Either way, this didn't regard Gabrielle.
"I'm fine. I don't need your worries. Jax, are you here for Emily? Tell Emily to stop acting so crazy next time. We don't have anything to do with one another." Gabrielle gazed at Jax with a long face.
Jax's face flushed in pink with embarrassment. He looked at Gabrielle with uneasy eyes. "Gabrielle, there is nothing between us. I have always liked you. Although Emily and I have known each other for a long time, we are just childhood friends. There's really nothing between us. Emily had just called me to bail her out. She wanted to keep this from her family and came to me instead. I had no idea ..."
"That woman beat Gabrielle first. Do you see the bruises on our faces? Those two women in there did this! They're crazy! Go back and watch those girls. Don't even bother getting in touch with Gabrielle." When Jax had tried to explain, Mia realized it.
Emily liked Jax, but Jax liked Gabrielle, explaining why Emily resented her. She had ended up taking out this anger and jealousy on Gabrielle.
"Men are all devils!" Mia exclaimed.
Jax's face burned red. He was taken by surprise. "Miss, I will take full responsibility for both of your injuries."
"Don't bother. Just pay the medical fees. Oh, and don't forget to watch your girl. She's crazy. Warn her that if she messes with anyone like this again, I'll beat some sense into her," Mia fumed.
Jax stood there speechless. "I already told you. She is not my girl..."
"Jax, this is a matter between you and Emily. You two should deal with it on your own. I hope it won't happen again." Gabrielle glanced at Jax. Her eyes were cold and hurt.
"Gabrielle please. Let me take you to the hospital." Jax's eyes wallowed in concern. They glanced at her face, traveling from her tussled hair to her swollen face.
"Don't think you'll faze me with those fake tears. Take your women and leave. One of them I'm sure has a broken nose. As well deserved as it is, the hospital is calling. Perhaps those prosthetics will have to be replaced. It could barely stand a chance; it must be cheap. Considering she's wearing thousands of dollars' worth in clothes, it's a joke she can't even afford a proper nose job," Mia scoffed.
She couldn't stand anyone that messed with her friends. In her eyes, Jax had this coming from a mile away.
