Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 378

Gabrielle was mad at Westley, but now, she couldn't bring herself to be mad at him.

He was always capable of dissuading her just when she was about to explode with anger, and it always forced her to stifle her anger.

Gabrielle hated this. She felt as though Westley had some sort of off switch in hand. He could just press it and her anger would disappear. To her, this was certainly not favorable.

It had been clear to her for a long time that he was a dangerous man. The closer she got to him, the more dangerous he would become.

But Gabrielle never gave up on him. Instead of fleeing from the danger, she wanted to get even closer to Westley.

On the surface, some people looked very dangerous. But in reality, they were gentle and inexplicably charming.

Gabrielle took one look at him and in that instance, she fell for his cold, handsome face.

A man like him was born to attract many people's attention. Even though she was trying not to look at him, she would sometimes find herself looking his way.

"Are you satisfied with what you're seeing?" Westley teased.

Each time she stared at him, he would notice it even while driving.

Gabrielle was looking at him in secret, but when he said that he noticed, she immediately panicked. It wasn't great to be caught staring.

"What did you say?" She looked out the window instinctively before staring back at Westley.

Naturally, he knew that she was just pretending to be ignorant, but he knew what she was doing.

She had been staring at him, but she still had the gall to play the fool despite being caught.

"Are you satisfied with your man's face?" Westley asked in a joking manner.

This time, Gabrielle didn't attempt to hide anything and burst into laughter.

"Westley, don't you have any confidence in your looks?"

"I do, but it's different when you're happy with how I look. I want to know what you think of me." A smirk appeared on his lips and one could see the happiness in his eyes.

Westley never doubted how handsome he was. After all, wherever he went, people would stare at him.

But Gabrielle's opinion mattered above all else.

Beauty lay in the eyes of the beholder.

So, by that logic, the same face could appear different in each person's point of view.

Some people might like it, and others might not.

Westley wasn't that vain about his appearance. To him, his personality was most important.

But for some reason, in front of Gabrielle, he couldn't help but be mindful of everything about himself.

Thus, it was important for him to know her opinion on how he looked.

"There's no reason to worry, Westley. I'm not dissatisfied with your face. Stop at the next intersection," said Gabrielle.

Having heard her say that, Westley chuckled before pulling over.

"Gabrielle, will you be going back to your studio this afternoon?" Westley asked as he stared at her.

After getting off the car, Gabrielle glanced back at him. "I'll be home early tonight."

She wasn't sure if she should go to the studio in the afternoon. As a special intern, she really didn't have to go to the studio if she h

ad something more important to do.

If there was a matter that she needed to handle at the school this afternoon, she wouldn't have to go to the studio.

"You don't need me to pick you up?" Westley asked.

"No, it's okay," replied Gabrielle.

"Okay. Be home early." With that, Westley said nothing more.

Since Gabrielle was adamant about her decision not to let him pick her up, he decided to oblige.

"You should go to class," Westley urged.

When Gabrielle glanced at the gate of Alorith University, she suddenly remembered that he once met Holly in the business street. She had no idea what kind of person Holly was.

'Did Holly install a GPS tracker inside Westley's body? For some reason, she appears wherever he goes. That's not just some coincidence, isn't it?' she wondered.

"Westley." When Gabrielle thought of that, she called out his name.

"What's the matter?" Westley looked into her eyes with a deep gaze.

"Westley, do you think Holly still has feelings for you?" Gabrielle asked bluntly, though she already knew that the answer was "yes".

Holly's feelings for Westley was so apparent.

Just about anyone could tell that she was still in love with him.

"If she does, it's none of my business, and it's not something I should care about," Westley answered calmly. He didn't expect Gabrielle to ask that question.

He had thought that someday, she would ask him a straightforward question about him and Holly, but he never thought she'd ask something that simple.

"Do you like Holly?" Gabrielle asked casually.

She had been wanting to ask him about this matter for a long time. As Westley's confidante, Holly was still a threat to Gabrielle.

"Holly has nothing to do with me. What you should ask me is how much I like you." Westley smiled at Gabrielle, still maintaining his composure.

His sudden flirtation made her blush.

'Why is he flirting with me now? I was talking about him and Holly, but he changed the topic.

Had I known this would happen, I never would've randomly asked about it,' she thought to herself.

"Anyway, I'm going to class now, Westley. You should go to work. Be careful on your way." Having said that, Gabrielle strode towards the school.

She gave him the cold shoulder, having no intention of looking back.

Upon seeing her react this way, Westley chuckled to himself.

Gabrielle's ill temper made him like her even more.

'Nothing happened between me and Holly, so there's no need to explain,' he thought to himself.

Gabrielle strutted towards the campus. Her face was still blushing, and she felt that the question she asked earlier was so humiliating.

'Why did I blurt out that question when I already know the answer?

Holly has a crush on Westley, but he doesn't even want to speak to her!' she thought to herself.

By that logic, Gabrielle's worries were unnecessary. No matter how much time had passed, Westley would never change his mind about Holly.

There was no need for Gabrielle to worry about it.

"Gabrielle, do you have any classes today?" A man's voice interrupted Gabrielle from her contemplation.
