Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 147 Indirect Kiss
They were still at the foot of the mountain. Before Gabrielle could take in what had just happened, she saw that Westley was
right in front of her. She moved back a bit in shock. At the same time. she remembered that he was competing with Micheal in
climbing the mountain. As her husband stood in front of her, he took out a bottle of water from her bag and handed it to her.
“Please, help me open it while I wipe the sweat off my brows,” he said to her politely.
She took a brief look at the bottle of water in her hand only to find out that it was the same one that she had just drunk out of.
“Will Westley be okay with drinking from the same bottle that I have drunk from?” she queried herself silently.
“Westley,” she called him softly as she still looked at the bottle in her hand, “this bottle of water...”
“You can’t open it, can you?” he asked her with a sheer. “What can you do?” He was carrying Gabrielle’s bag on his shoulder and
held a towel in his hand. As he wiped the sweat from his face to his chin, he looked casual and sexy. When he was done, he
raised his
eyebrows and looked at Gabrielle.
With his eyes on her, Gabrielle’s heart started beating faster than normal.
“Why is he looking at me this way? Besides, why did he change into a different person after climbing the mountain?” she
wondered.
This made her completely puzzled. She couldn’t help but wonder if he didn’t like being close to her. But now, he took the initiative
to ask her to open the bottle of water that she had just drunk from. 4
For this reason, she was surprised and even flattered which left her at a loss for words.
The bottle had already been unscrewed before, so it was easy for her to open it again. Just then, she moved closer to Westley
and whispered to him, “I have opened it already, Westley, but this
water...
“I have drunk this bottle of water before,” she rehearsed within her before she tried to say it out loud.

But before she could utter the remaining words, he grabbed the bottle of water from her and started gulping it down.
When Gabrielle saw this, she moved a few steps back and was too amazed to say anything. All she could do was to stare at his
Adam’s apple, as it kept moving up and down as he drank the water.
Westley was had a perfect look. Even his small gesture of drinking water was enough to make people around him very excited,
let alone his handsome face. He knew how to capture the hearts of people around him even without knowing
‘You are just drinking a bottle of water for heaven’s sake! You don’t need to act too sexy. It could easily make people lose control
of themselves, ‘ Gabrielle reasoned.
“Yes? You are also thirsty, aren’t you? Do
Vou want some water, too?” Westley asked as he offered her the bottle. He had already drunk half of the bottle of water and took
it down, only to find out that Gabrielle was staring at him with an incredible expression on her face..
He caught her looking at him in that instant
“No. I’m not thirsty. You can drink the water alone. I’m okay with it.” Gabrielle shook her head vehemently. She didn’t want to
drink from the same bottle of water with him. “Yuck!” she muttered under her breath.
Although she was the first to drink from this bottle and Westley didn’t care about it, she did.
“Tell me the truth, you are shy, aren’t you?” He deliberately lowered his head and leaned in front of her. He continued to talk to
her in a very gentle and vague tone, “Of course, I know that you’ve drunk out of this bottle of water. We are a couple, Gabrielle,
and so, there is no big deal about doing intimate things. This was just an indirect kiss and also an innocent drink of water,
nothing more. Why are you so nervous?” J
Immediately he said this, he didn’t wait for her reply before leaving her to herself. But the words he spoke remained in her ears
and at the same time, it warmed her heart.
‘Damn it! Could it be that Westley is a male tramp? He knows what I’m afraid of the most, but he will still go ahead to do it. But at
the same time, I’m attracted by his intimate words,’ she thought with a smile.
What made her feel more shameful was that what had just happened between both of them was seen by other people such as
Austin. It seemed like her husband was playing a dirty trick on her.

“You can drink it all on your own. I’m not thirsty,” she shouted after him before he went far. She also stepped back from him and
looked at his retreating figure cautiously
Westley turned around and looked at her with a smirk on his face.
When Gabrielle saw him do this, she knew that he did it on purpose to spite her.
Obviously, this man’s nature was so bad that he couldn’t just change all of a sudden. By the way, she was still young, she was
almost out of control due to Westley’s casual flirtations.
“So Westley. you came here to keep grandma and the others company as they climb the mountain,” Holly asked him. She felt
that she was being completely ignored and because of that, she quickly spoke up to prove her existence.
“Oh, Holly. You’re here. Yes, I came to climb the mountain with grandma and Gabrielle. You also came with Austin, didn’t you?”
Westley acted as if he had just seen Holly, which made her feel worse than before.
Holly was a new star in the French design circle. Wherever she went, she would be seen immediately she came in and then
surrounded by the crowd.
But it was not the same when she was with Westley. She would never be seen until she announced herself.
Meanwhile, Gabrielle became like the sun
that shone brightly. She was easily noticed by Westley and this made Holly very bitter. Was that the reason why they got married
so quickly?
Bah, she couldn’t believe the fact that he had fallen in love with Gabrielle within such a short time. Besides, her cousin, Helena
held a very high position in his heart. The reason why he took so long in holding the wedding ceremony with Nellie before was
that he couldn’t let go of Helena.
“But I still don’t understand why he got manied to this adopted girl so fast. There is something nobody is telling me,’ Holly thought
silently. It looked like Westley and Gabrielle were so in love with each other and this made Holly feel strange and uncomfortable
when she saw how intimate they were.
“Yes, I came here with Austin. We haven‘t gone out for a long time since we came back home and so we decided to climb the
Isido Mount today. We used to climb the mountain frequently in the past,” she explained to Westley in detail to draw his whole
attention to her.

But her plan failed as Westley just
replied indifferently without looking at her. Well, I’m just doing this for them. I prefer jogging to climbing the mountain.”
“Westley, since you don’t like climbing the mountain, why then did you come with us to this place?”
Gabrielle asked casually. Her expression showed that she was apologetic and also grateful to him for coming with them even
though he didn’t like being here.
“I just wanted to keep you company. If you feel sorry for me, you can jog with me tomorrow moming,” Westley said calmly with a
smile plastered on his face.
Gabrielle was at a loss for words. She looked at him in surprise. She felt like she was causing more trouble for herself.
“It doesn’t matter if you can’t wake up early. I’ll make sure that I wake you up.” Of course, he understood what his wife was
thinking about, but he did it on purpose.
She didn’t have the right to accept or refuse. It was all up to Westley. It was his choice to make.
She didn’t want to get up and start jogging early in the morning. She wanted to refuse.
“I can jog with you tomorrow morning, Westley.” Austin offered, trying to save Gabrielle.
“Are you staying over for the night?” Westley raised his eyebrows and took a brief look at Austin.
Austin nodded in the affirmative. “I came here today to visit grandma. My clothes and luggage have been put in grandma’s house
already. So I’m going to stay here tonight.”
“Well done. You are a good grandson,” Westley said as he commended his cousin. He put the water bottle back into Gabrielle’s
bag and held her by the hand. He started walking up to the mountain.
Gabrielle was very reluctant to be dragged forcefully up the mountain with him. She tried resisting him, but he was much stronger
than she was.
“Westley, slow down. If you keep dragging me this way, I’ll fall to the
ground,” she said softly in a begging way. which melted Westley’s heart.

happened to arrive at the same time, he tried to explain the truth.
As such, he shouldn’t be the one to accompany her during the duration of the hike.
“Nonetheless, Holly still came with you. As such, you need to take care of her,” Westley replied as if he was talking about a
business deal.
Meanwhile, Holly felt offended while watching the two men point fingers about who to accompany her.
“There’s no need for any of you to take care of me. I can handle hiking alone.”
