Lock You In My Heart

Gabrielle was photographing the landscape outside the window while Westley was texting Joseph. She intended to send the photos to Mia and Lolita later.

However, as she was photographing, she noticed Holly lie in front of their house. She stood firmly in the frigid wind, in a windbreaker.

Gabrielle would have thought the sight was lovely if not for the anger in her eyes.

Gabrielle believed Holly had lost her mind as she stood on the summit of the mountain in the freezing wind. Gabrielle stood there for a moment and felt bitterly cold, despite the fact that she was wearing a sweater and a down coat.

Holly wore a low-collared dress with a windbreaker. It was quite cold outside, and Gabrielle was astounded by her bravery

"Gabrielle, something catching your eye?." Westley turned only to see Gabrielle staring out of the window.

"Your admirer,is shivering in the brisk air. If I were a male, I would empathize with her." The assumption was that she was unaware of how devious and malicious this woman was.

Gabrielle recalled how Holly had once broken her leg after falling into a hole on the Isido Mount in order to get Westley's compassion. ; :

However, it was an ingenious hoax

Holly was the type of woman who would do everything to achieve what she desired. Gabrielle didn't believe she was capable of accomplishing that; she couldn't handle the thought of injuring herself in order to obtain what she coveted. I

As a result, she believed Holly was pretty incredible.

"Admirer?" Westley burst out laughing upon hearing this: He peered out the window at Holly and immediately identified what Gabrielle was saying

While it was true that Holly liked him, he had no affections for her, which was why Westley didn't believe the term admirer" was an appropriate description of her

"Yes, Miss Edwards does seem to like you, doesn't she? Naturally, in that scenario, she is your admirer. Is there anything incorrect with it?" Gabrielle said coolly

"There is nothing incorrect with that. You are right." Westley always paid attention to Gabrielle's words.

"Isn't she chilly at all?" Gabrielle said indifferently.

"Do not be bothered about her. It is absolutely her concern." Westley harbored no remorse for her in his heart. Westley believed Holly had asked it on her own and that it had nothing to do with him. He felt no pity for her. "However, she is a friend of yours, isn't she? Do you have no concern about her?" Gabrielle asked intentionally with a wicked smile.

"1 don't have time to be concerned about anything trivial. Nevertheless, if you request it, I will make an attempt."

Westley lobbed back the question to Gabrielle.

Gabrielle had a distinct impression that she was digging her own grave.

Gabrielle should have realized she couldn't dupe Westley.

She intended to taunt Westley with Holly but instead found herself being teased.

"No, you cannot worry about other ladies; Miss Edwards does not require your concern. Let her stand there if she can't feel the cold outside. She should go inside if she is feeling chilly. But I have to say, she is spoiling the scenery out there." Gabrielle smiled as she approached Westley and took his arm in hers, acting as if she were a spoilt kid.

"Then, how about we have a peek at the landscape on the other side?" Westley carried her across to the other side.

Luckily, Holly was unable to see anything inside the house through the glass. She must have believed that by

standing out there, she would destroy their mood and was unaware that they would switch sides.

That came to her as a surprise.

Moreover, how could she possibly play a trick on Westley?

Holly had nothing against him.

"Did you ask them to bring food here, honey?" Gabnielle shifted her concentration away from Holly and toward the food since she was starving at this point.

"I've informed Joseph, it should arrive shortly. They will also dine with us here and go after lunch. This evening, we

shall have supper together," Westley said softly as he pulled back strands of hair that had fallen over her face.

"I see." Although Gabrielle was adamant about not eating with Holly, she knew that it was unavoidable because Holly was a friend of theirs.

Holly stood outside for an extended period of time until Alexis summoned her in.

As Holly had anticipated, she caught a cold as they descended from the mountain top.

She was prepared to go to any length to have what she desired. It was just that this type of ruse did not work on individuals who were uninterested in her.

Westley took Gabrielle in his arms and rode down the mountain in the cable car. He didn't even glance at Holly, who seemed pale and uneasy. Alexis helped her board the cable car. Holly's eyes were full of rage and reluctance. Why was it this way? She got ill, and Westley didn't even look at her.

She considered the possibility that she deserved it. Westley had never shown any interest in her; why should he now? Westley would not even take a look at her even if she died there, not to mention that she just had a cold.

Holly had known for years that Westley had never taken her seriously. He previously had Helena. He had Nellie following Helena's death. However, how could she simply give up in this manner? She had loved him for years.

She reasoned that Westley would at the very least inquire about her, given their years of acquaintance.

However, it appeared as though she was incorrect.

"Are you all okay, Holly? I warned you not to go into the frigid wind, but you disregarded my warning," Alexis said In an unconcerned tone.

"I've not been here in a long time and I just wanted to view the scenery. I had no idea I'd develop a cold." Holly made a concerted effort to keep her anger and disappointment in check and seemed to be calm.

However, it was an unmistakable fabrication. Nobody would stand out there in the bitter cold for so long just to admire the landscape.

However, Alexis was not about to unravel her fabrication. He believed that regardless of the ploy Holly used, she would never be able to make Westley fall in love with her, not before, not after.

If they were destined to be together, they would have been together when they met years ago.

Secondly, Westley was deeply in love with his wife at the time. Why would he fall in love with someone else?

He would not look at Holly again, even if she died right in front of him. Alexis believed Holly was extremely dumb. "Alexis, do I look stupid to you?" Holly stared at Alexis and asked.
