Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 309

Jason was taken aback. He didn't expect that Michelle would ask him such a direct question. At first he was stunned. Then he looked at her with a smile.

"Michelle, why do you think so? Vivian is an excellent designer and has always been a good partner," Jason explained calmly.

However, even he knew that this explanation was not enough to convince her.

"I know that, Jason. But that doesn't mean Vivian thinks like you. I'm a woman. I know what this woman is thinking. It's a fact that she likes you!" Michelle spoke in a serious tone.

This was what she had been trying to convey to him. Vivian's love for Jason was evident on her face and she made no effort to disguise it. Michelle had received education in the open-minded western world. She had seen these things from an early age, so she was quite quick and sensitive to understand such matters.

On the other hand, Jason didn't take it seriously. When Michelle told him what she thought about Vivian's feelings for him, he looked surprised. A small smile formed on his face and he said, "C'mon Michelle! Let's not talk about it for now. Trust me, there is nothing between Vivian and me." Jason didn't want to think in that way about Vivian.

Therefore, he wanted the topic to be dropped as soon as possible.

Michelle suddenly burst into laughter. "Jason, do you know whose poster Vivian is holding?"

"Yeah. It's your poster," Jason replied in a serious tone.

Hearing it, Michelle smiled in amusement.

"I know it's my poster. In fact, Gabrielle was going to bring it in and ask me to sign it. But Vivian took it from her and asked for my signature. She just wanted to cotton up to me, and was smart enough to do it in front of you. The truth is that she doesn't like me, but she just pretends. Honestly, I don't like such a fake person." Michelle was very clear and expressed her opinion seriously.

She was like that. She would be very frank and expressed her thoughts honestly. She didn't like to lie or pretend about what she liked or disliked.

Jason didn't expect such an outburst from her. He looked at Michelle, his eyes wide in surprise. "Interesting. But tell me, how do you know that? You seem to have a good relationship with Gabrielle."

"Yes. And that's because Austin knows her," Michelle said casually.

She tried to sound casual, but had to be careful because Gabrielle had told her not to let others know about her relationship with Westley.

That was why she didn't tell him anything further.

"Well, it looks like both of you often spend time together." Jason smiled.

"Yeah! We do have a good relationship. So Jason, can I ask you one thing?" Michelle looked at Jason and said seriously.

"Sure. What is it? Seriously Michelle, if you have anything to say, just tell it. You don't have to be so polite." Jason looked at Michelle and said with a broad smile.

"Jason, I wanted to ask you to let Gabrielle design along with you this time. After all, she is your apprentice. It will not be very difficult for her to work with you now, right?" Michelle wanted to give Gabrielle more opportunities, so she could learn and develop in jewelry designing.

"I'll arrange it. You want to ask Gabrielle to come to you?" After knowing that the two of them were on good terms, Jason understood everything. He was able to comprehend why she asked Gabrielle to come to her.

"I'll tell you the truth, Jason. I came here to talk about the design with you. More importantly, I wanted to meet Gabrielle. But Gabrielle didn't want our relationship to be known, so I wanted her to come here. She doesn't like to expose her relations with others." Michelle explained everything to him.

"Oh, I know that. Gabrielle has always been a low-key and practical person. She doesn't like to show off. I totally understand what you mean," Jason said in a calm and composed manner.

It was true that he knew what kind of person Gabrielle was.

"Then tell me, Jason. Will you give Gabrielle a chance?" Michelle asked and looked eagerly at him.

"Don't worry about anything. I will ask Gabrielle to participate in the designing. She is my apprentice. I will give

her more opportunities to be a part of these things." Jason already had been thinking about it. He wanted to give Gabrielle more work. But he hadn't expected that Michelle would know Gabrielle. And now he realized that both of them shared a good relationship.

Hardly two or three years had passed since Michelle came to Antawood. She had been in the entertainment circle and didn't have many friends. She was too straightforward and always ended up in arguments with whoever she didn't like. Few people could dare to be friends with her.

And that didn't bother Michelle at all. She didn't care about those things.

No one would have thought she could become Gabrielle's friend.

Though it seemed strange, it was not too surprising for Gabrielle to accept Michelle's character.

"That's assuring to hear!" Michelle stood up in excitement and clapped her hands. She was looking at Jason and was extremely happy.

But Jason had a calm look on his face. He looked like someone who was plotting something. She just hoped it wouldn't be a big deal.

"Now let's go downstairs to meet everyone. I can see that many people in your company are my fans. What do you say? Shall I go downstairs and take few photos with them? And give my autograph to everyone?" Michelle looked at Jason. There was a warmth on her face.

Also there was a hint of mischief and cunningness in her smile, like a little fox.

This was the real Michelle.

"C'mon Michelle! Are you sure you want to have a meeting with your fans downstairs?" Jason knew that except for the fan meeting arranged by her agent, Michelle wouldn't attend any other fan meeting. Especially not a private one like this.

And anyway, it made sense too. The lesser she participated, the better it would be. It was a fact that she didn't like trouble and the chaos.

It was actually rare for her to be so active.

"Well, I can have one. After all, these are members of your staff. I can do it for you. Who knows! I may come here frequently in the future, so we can get along well with each other. And you do know I'm very kind, don't you?" Michelle smiled back at Jason.

Now that she seemed to be eager to do it, Jason had nothing else to say.

"Alright then. Let's go downstairs and have a look. Don't be frightened by their enthusiasm." As a matter of fact, Jason knew how important Michelle was in the hearts of some of his colleagues. Her posters were everywhere.

"Don't worry about me. I've seen all kinds of situations. Let's go downstairs. I'll leave after giving autographs. I've scheduled tonight's dinner with Gabrielle. Anyway, do you have time to accompany me tonight, Jason?" Michelle couldn't wait to go downstairs to meet Gabrielle.

"Oh! I don't have time tonight. How about a little treat from my side, next time?" Jason was actually very busy. Generally, one needed to fix an appointment with him, in advance. Otherwise, he would rarely have time to spend.

"Okay then! We can make an appointment next time. Come on now. Let's go downstairs and meet Gabrielle." Michelle left the office like a little girl, bubbling with excitement

Both of them entered the elevator. As there was no one else with them, Michelle couldn't help but speak again. "Jason, do you like Vivian? Tell me, do you?"

"Well, before I answer, let me know what you mean by 'like'?" Jason didn't like it when others asked him about his private affairs. But he could answer it now, because Michelle was not going to walk around gossiping. So he was willing to talk to her.

"Men like women!" Michelle pointed it out.

"Michelle, seriously dear, you're thinking too much. For me, Vivian is an excellent designer and a good friend of mine. That's all." Jason's attitude was very clear.

"That's good. Even if you are desperate to find a girlfriend, don't choose Vivian," Michelle said. She was too straightforward.

"Okay," Jason replied softly.

"By the way, Jason, what kind of a girl do you like? If there is a suitable girl for you, I will help you." Michelle began to discuss regarding everything.

"No, thanks." A cute and soft face popped up in Jason's mind while he refused.
