Gabrielle was a person with high self-esteem. Thus, it was really unfair for her to get called silly by Westley.
"Of course you are stupid. You know how many people in Antawood want to marry me. But, you are the only one who can marry me and become the wife of the president of the Morris Group. You are luckier than so many people. What's more, you are the most important person in my heart. So, do you still think that you are the bane of my life? Don't say such words again in the future. Isn't it silly to defame yourself like this?" Westley locked his gaze on Gabrielle and couldn't help but utter a thorough comment.
Gabrielle felt Westley's words made sense when she heard them. She was, in fact, luckier than many people, so she was not the bane.
"Yes, there are so many women in Antawood who want to marry you, but you insist on marrying me. You don't have to do this," Gabrielle said with a mix of anger.
Back when she was forced to marry Westley, she felt that she really was unlucky. After all, her initial impression of Westley was that he was really terrifying, ruthless, and extremely indifferent.
"But I married you in the end. Now you are my legal wife. If you encounter something like this in the future, you can question me as my wife. This is your right," Westley said with a touch of softness in his voice.
Westley genuinely believed that it was Gabrielle's right as his wife, and she deserved it as well.
"I see, Westley." Gabrielle acquiesced in her right.
In the future, whenever she saw any woman beside Westley, she could question him as his wife.
Thinking of the power she held, Gabrielle felt a little refreshed in her heart.
"Don't be so jealous and angry next time. If you get angry, it will affect your health. It's not worth it," Westley said as he gave a gentle pat on Gabrielle's head.
"I know. I won't do that again," Gabrielle promised, expressing seriousness.
When she reflected on how she had previously misunderstood Westley, a sense of guilt swelled in her heart, making her feel a little stupid about her own thoughts. The more her mind reminisced about it, the more stupid she thought she was.
"I'll take you back to the Morris' Mansion to see my sister-in-law and Tammy. Tammy knows that she has an aunt and long wanted to see you. I think she will definitely like you very much." Westley comforted Gabrielle to clear the remaining negative thoughts in her heart.
"Really? I've never had much interaction with children before, so I'm not sure what they'd like. Do you think Tammy will like me?" Gabrielle looked at Westley with a trace of uneasiness in her eyes.
After all, Tammy was Westley's niece. Since this would be their first meeting, she wanted to prepare some gifts for the little girl. However, she didn't know what gifts she should buy.
She was visibly nervous, so she looked at Westley with a worried expression on her face.
"Westley, how long will they stay? If it takes a long time, I think I'll see her next time when I am fully prepared. Then she won't dislike me." After all, Gabrielle was still nervous about Tammy's first impression of her.
This was the first time seeing Westley's niece. So, she wanted to leave a better impression on her. After all, she had previously misunderstood Tammy as Westley's daughter.
Tammy was Westley's brother's daughter. Therefore it was no wonder that she resembled Westley. It was normal for the niece to look a little like her uncle.
"It's fine. I'll get everything Tammy likes ready. All you have to do is to go there. Tammy only needs to see you in front of her," Westley said calmly.

Gabrielle naturally didn't doubt how Westley knew it as she knew that he should know everything about the Morris Group.
So, it was not surprising that Westley knew she was embarrassed by the security guard.
"It's fine. It means that the company is very strict in management. No woman can come in and find you in usual times," Gabrielle said with ease.
"Are you jealous?" Hearing Gabrielle's words, Westley burst into laughter.
For Westley, Gabrielle's words clearly showed that she cared about him very much. Otherwise, why would she say that?
"Who is jealous? I am not. Aren't we going to buy gifts now? Let's go!" Gabrielle quickly changed the topic and left with her stuff.
Westley hurried forward to chase after Gabrielle, reaching out and holding her hand. "Let's go to buy gifts for Tammy."
Going down from Westley's exclusive elevator, they reached the underground parking lot of the Morris Group and then got into the car.
"Westley, isn't it inappropriate of me to come over to look for you like this today? I won't do this again." Gabrielle was still fidgeting as she sat on the seat, feeling a bit guilty for her reckless behavior today.
"It's okay. It's natural for a wife to come to find her husband. There is nothing inappropriate about that. The Morris Group will welcome you in the future. As long as you want to come, you can come over at any time, and make sure to call Alvin or me. If you still don't want to make our relationship public, then we won't," Westley said as he leaned over to fasten her seat belt.
