Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 494

Right now, Gabrielle exactly conveyed that she wanted to get even with him today. Her expression and behavior made her look like a dangerous fox.

At the sight of this, Westley couldn't help but wonder, 'Indeed, as the old saying goes, 'Be a rascal among rascals.' After becoming his wife, Gabrielle learned to be foxy and became a little evil like him.

Looking into Gabrielle's sharp and inquisitive eyes, Westley felt a bit nervous and expectant at the same time.

He turned around and leaned against the edge of the pool, saying with a faint smile on his face, "Alright, let's make it clear. Even though you are almost recovered, it's not good if your mood fluctuates, but I will tell you whatever you want to know. Where do you want to start?" With his hands spread out on the edge of the pool, he looked at Gabrielle quietly, waiting for her to get even with him like she wished.

Besides, he knew that what happened to Bryce and Nellie could be a forever thorn between the two of them if he didn't make it clear. He didn't want anything to affect their relationship.

"I want to know everything about what happened to Bryce and Nellie. When and why did you lock the two of them up? Why did you hide it from me? Did you know their whereabouts from the very beginning, including when they were in Switzerland? Are you the one who hit Bryce?" Once she was given permission, Gabrielle began to ask a long list of questions directly.

After hearing this, Westley studied her determined face carefully.

It turned out this little woman was adamant about getting even with him today.

Well, this was getting interesting since it was the first time that someone had challenged him like this.

He asked back in reply, "Gabrielle, if you ask so many questions at once like this, how would I know which one I should answer first?" Westley tried to put his arm around Gabrielle's shoulder playfully, but she patted his hand away.

"You are not allowed to touch me before you answer my questions," Gabrielle retorted seriously.

At this moment, Westley didn't dare to do anything else as he realized that the situation was pretty serious. He leaned against the pool obediently and looked at Gabrielle.

This situation looked as if the two of them were completely in the opposite standing, just like the relationship between the prisoner and the inspector. What he could only do was to admit everything and earn her forgiveness. Otherwise, he would be severely punished by her if he showed any resistance to answer her questions.

He came to understand about his wife that she was feisty once she was really pissed off.

Westley hummed and thought to himself, 'Such a petite body was armed with a short tempered soul.'

"Okay, I'll answer everything. Which one should I start with?" Westley decided to surrender with a good temper.

"You can start with any one you like as long as you answer all my questions." Gabrielle looked stubborn and principled, devoid of forgiving attitude.

Westley burst into laughter, saying, "Okay, okay. I'll confess and earn your forgiveness."

"You should have been honest in the first place. Don't you dare laugh. You'd better answer all the questions seriously," frowning, Gabrielle scolded seriously.

"Sure, sure. I'll be serious." Saying this, Westley immediately changed his expression into a serious one, completely like a domineering CEO who was in the middle of important discussion.

Gabrielle nodded, acknowledging his attitude. They had to be serious when talking about important matters.

"Now, start spilling." Gabrielle impatiently said while staring into his eyes, trying to detect any lie showing in them.

"It's true. I have known the whereabouts of Bryce and Nellie from the very beginning. After all, I can find anyone with my ability," Westley admitted calmly.

"Well, I won't quarrel with you now. I will be quiet until you finish telling me the whole story. Then, I'll convey my dissatisfactions." Crossing her arms over her chest, Gabrielle spoke.

Westley was a thoughtful and calm man who had an indifferent attitude. No one could read his mind, not even her.

Gabrielle didn't really know anything about this man except the fact that he treated her better than anyone.

"Okay, I'll tell you everything. But please show mercy to me later, 'my lady'," Westley said while bowing his head towards her in playful courtesy.

Gabrielle just glanced at him coldly and said three words, "You may start."

Taking a deep breath, Westley explained, "I didn't bring them back directly because I despised to marry a person who obviously betrayed me by choosing to flee with another man. I also made a good use of her action as I suppressed the Collins family's constant blackmailing to the Morris family. This had been my plan at that time. Then, Grandma hoped that I could get married as she was not in good health during that time. I couldn't let her wait any longer and so, you became the most suitable choice for me at that time." Westley explained so carefully and honestly that Gabrielle couldn't sense any lie in his words.

'I was the best choice?' she thought.

So, what he meant was that he needed a wife at that time, and Gabrielle happened to be the best candidate on the list. That was to say, to Westley, it didn't matter whom he would marry since he couldn't marry the woman he liked.

Thinking of this, Gabrielle's heart twitched and a dull pain surfaced in her heart. Maybe, in Westley's heart, she was not even comparable to the woman he loved.

Letting out a subtle shaky breath, Gabrielle clenched her fists under the water, trying to calm herself down.

After all, she was the one who asked Westley to tell her the truth. So, no matter what the truth was, she asked for it and she had to bear the pain by herself.
