Chapter 702 She Was Difficult To Mess With
Westley and Gabrielle's public display of love was spreading across Novo Mountain.
It was the first time to know that a couple could be so brazen about displaying their love.
They flaunted their affection wherever they went.
"Allow me to explain, Gabrielle. This path's landscape is more picturesque than the scenery on the main road. You
need to give it some serious consideration. This path is ideal for trekking and taking in the views. Indeed, there is a
lengthy road behind it that spans the entire mountain range. Numerous hikers will gather here to have a walk along this road. If you have the opportunity to complete the journey, you will be amazed and delighted." The fact that Alexis had a strong interest in travel made him want to share more about whatever the subject matter would be.
He had a good impression of Gabrielle, and as a result, he was willing to share this good thing with her. Naturally, there was some flattery as well.
"For real?" Gabrielle had an intense interest in it. She had never traveled on foot previously. She would want to give it a try if possible.
It must be an incredible trek, particularly via the Novo Mouptsin Each step may provide a small surprise.
She had a good perception of the Novo Mountain prior to jthe cable car ride, and now she had a great image of it hearing Alexis's remarks..
There was a genuine yearning for her to go through the Novo Mountain. Something had always been concealed deep inside the heart and triggered at a particular time.
"Obviously, this is true. If you're not convinced, you can ask Westley. He will not deceive you," Alexis said seriously. Gabrielle was really intrigued and instantly shifted her gaze fe Westley. "Westley, is Alexis saying the truth?"
"That is true. If you're truly interested in walking, I'll accompany you there when the weather improves." Westley caressed her head and consented to her desire in a spoilt manner.
"That is fantastic. You have promised me. Alexis would attest on my behalf that you stated that you will find time to take me for a stroll on the Novo Mountain in the future. You are required to maintain your pledge," Gabrielle said happily.
"All right, I can attest that Westley has agreed to take Gabrielle to the Novo Mountain when the weather improves."
Alexis was promptly summoned as a witness.
"So now Alexis is on the record for us. You are not permitted to betray your pledge." Gabrielle stroked his hand and acted as though she was threatening.
"I will keep my pledge. Are you exhausted?" asked Westley.
"Yes, to a degree. Are you going to carry me down, Mr. Morris?" Gabrielle asked Westley in a spoiled manner.
Holly, who stood behind them, felt quite uneasy. Indeed, it was common for men to carry their wives down the mountain.
However, the spouse was Westley, whom she adored. Clearly, she was upset.
Her heart was ablaze with envy. She hoped she could hurry up and separate the two of them forcefully.
"Westley, my head is paining." Holly took a purposeful step behind Westley. She could do it now if she chose to lean on him.
Holly employed such a low-key manner of coquettish bitching. As a result, she earned Gabrielle's disgust.
"After all, Miss Edwards, you have a fever, and it is natural for you to have a headache. Allow me to assist you. After all, there are only two of us who are female." Gabrielle exhibited considerable generosity and decency. She instinctively let go of Westley's hand and walked to Holly's side. Gabrielle then held Holly's arm directly, regardless of her unhappiness.
She was compelled to be Gabrielle's friend and to be held by her.
Truth be told, she was not willing to use Gabrielle's help.
She desired to exploit Westley. She was adamant that she would not need help from Gabrielle, the repulsive woman. "Miss Jones, well,
"Miss Edwards, I am aware that you dislike me and do not wish for me to assist you. However, consider this. I will avoid physical contact with you in order to avoid generating suspicion. It's tough for you to return to the resort on your own while you're suffering from a severe headache. Are you aware of the slopes and stone pits in this area? You will perish if you fall and slide down." Gabrielle gently teminded her with a cool smile.
However, Holly was fully aware that the phony woman was threatening her. If she dared to approach Westley, Gabrielle might push her all the way down the mountain.
Holly was very certain of that.
Gabrielle was, at best, a lady who appeared innocent. Indeed, she was bubbling with schemes. How could she marry
Westley if she didn't have some tricks under her sleeve? How could she have made him protect her and take such good care of her? Holly was also aware of it.
"Miss Jones, I appreciate your assistance in helping me bo: It was difficult for her to walk alone, so she obeyed
Gabrielle and requested assistance.
"That is excellent, Miss Edwards. This is for your own good. After all, you are Westley's friend and Nellie's cousin.
As a result, I'll assist you." Gabrielle smiled gently.
The softer the smile, the more frightening it would be. It was the first time Holly realized Gabrielle was not to be trifled with and was also a bit frightening.
Holly was adamantly opposed to speaking now. She only desired to return to the Novo Resort as quickly as possible, as her head was becoming increasingly heavy and her eyes began to blur. This was a symptom that her cold was deteriorating. Holly was quite aware of the situation.
"Slow down, Miss Edwards. Don't fall down, or you will suffer serious injury. You are suffering from a fever. It will be worse if you sustain an injury." Gabrielle gently reminded her.
It sounded like another threat to Holly. Now, regardless of how sad or powerful she tried to be, no one would stand with her.
Everyone, including Alexis, sided with Westley. And Westley sided with Gabrielle. That suggested that they were all on Gabrielle's side.
If she really wanted to pick a fight with Gabrielle, she would lose flawlessly!
Additionally, she was still running a temperature. Indeed, she created her own errors.
"We are almost there, Miss Edwards. Please hold on a little longer. When you arrive at the resort, request an excellent treatment from Remy. You'll be OK after a day or even half a day of lying down. Did you come here alone this time?" The way Gabrielle asked Holly would make you think that they were cool friends.
Gabrielle was all too aware of Holly's emotions at the moment. Holly despised talking to her, so she spoke to her on purpose.
Gabrielle desired Holly's acceptance the more she disliked it. Only in this manner would Holly become aware of how tough she was:to manipulate.
