Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 313

Upon hearing what Jason said, Gabrielle immediately understand what he meant. She was going to have dinner with Michelle tonight.

 

"Well, I have something to do tonight. Are all these documents for Lolita?" Gabrielle gave Lolita a strange look.

 

"Yes, they are for her." Jason obediently put the documents on Lolita's desk.

 

"Mr. Foster, I can assure you that I will take these home tonight and read them carefully. I will make a summary and turn it in tomorrow morning." Of course, Lolita would accept the task.

 

She actually felt honored that it was Jason giving her the documents in person.

 

So, Lolita would really take this matter seriously.

 

"Who told you that you can take these documents home?" Jason raised his eyebrows at Lolita, looking quite dangerous.

 

"Ah," Lolita replied as she looked at him in confusion. "Mr. Foster, I understand that these documents contain vital information about the company that's why you want me to go over them here in the office. I will not bring them home anymore then. I'll leave all these here on my table, and I'll just come very early tomorrow so that I could check on them immediately," Lolita promised sincerely.

 

The seriousness on her face was undisguised.

 

Jason couldn't help but be amused by her reaction. Lolita was speaking seriously and yet she still looked cute.

 

"Lolita, how long have you been in this company?" Jason asked calmly, without any hint of arrogance.

 

"Four, going five months," Lolita answered her boss's question very seriously, fearing that her answer would make a bad impression on him. Although she was already a regular employee, she could still get fired once she irked Mr. Foster.

 

"Do you know that employees sometimes work overtime?" Jason asked while grinning.

 

Of course, Lolita knew that.

 

In fact, for people like her who were in the field of creative design, it was normal to work overtime for a few days, especially when a project was urgent.

 

"I know that. So, Mr. Foster, do you want me to work overtime today?" Lolita asked cautiously while looking at Jason.

 

"Well, that's exactly what I meant. Lolita, are you willing to stay and work extra hours today?" Jason asked her.

 

But Lolita was hesitating, "Of course, I do. But..." It was so sudden that she kind of felt trapped. Her boss came to her with a pile of documents in his hands, a few seconds before her shift was supposed to end, and asked her to work overtime. Lolita was not happy at all. It was as if he did it on purpose.

 

"Do you have a prior appointment tonight?" Seeing her hesitation, Jason thought that his idea of working extra hours might keep Lolita from having a date.

 

Lolita repeatedly shook her head. "I don't have an appointment. It hasn't been long since I got back here so I don't really have many friends. Gabrielle is actually my only friend at the moment."

 

Lolita's answer made Jason happy. "Then stay and work overtime. Besides, I need to discuss something with you."

 

"What do you mean? Are you also staying and working overtime with me, Mr. Foster?" Lolita asked confusedly.

 

As she watched them converse with each other, Gabrielle finally understood why her mentor didn't look for her. It was not because she had an appointment with Michelle later in the evening, but because Jason wanted to work overtime with Lolita.

 

'Does he have a crush on Lolita?'

 

Gabrielle felt horrified by just thinking about the possibility.

 

Forget it! It would be better not to overthink things.

 

After

all, Lolita was really a good girl, talented and good-tempered. She was also beautiful, so it was just normal for people to like her.

 

"Yes. I took Michelle's order. I know you are her super fan, and I want you to help me analyze her preferences. Later, I will ask Gabrielle to help me finish the jewelry. So, are you willing to help us?" Jason was finally including Gabrielle in the group, and he turned 'me' into 'us'.

 

By including Gabrielle in the picture, Lolita could not refuse.

 

For the sake of her boss and Gabrielle, she would work overtime. More importantly, she had to make contributions to her idol's jewelry design. Upon thinking of it, she immediately felt the willingness to stay for extra hours.

 

"Lolita, I'm sorry for bothering you." Gabrielle was now helping Jason.

 

Lolita couldn't turn Gabrielle down. Of course, she would agree. "It's not a big deal. Michelle is my idol, I will be pleased to help in designing her jewelry. I'm more than willing to stay."

 

Seeing Lolita's excitement, Gabrielle breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Jason.

 

"Then, I'll go first." Gabrielle didn't want to be the third wheel and hurriedly walked away, bringing her bag.

 

Lolita was now feeling relaxed. She looked at Jason happily and said, "Mr. Foster, we are really going to design Michelle's jewelry, right?"

 

Jason couldn't help laughing as he saw her beaming with excitement. "Of course, I have never lied to you. But Lolita, you don't really have to call me Mr. Foster."

 

'How should I call you then?' Lolita thought.

 

It had been almost five months since Lolita joined the studio, and she was always calling him Mr. Foster.

 

"How about Manager Foster?" 'Did he find the name 'Mr. Foster' dull so he wanted me to change the way I call him?'

 

"Are you Gabrielle's good friend?" Jason really thought that Lolita was lovely, but she was too straightforward and couldn't control her tongue. Nonetheless, this was one of the many things about her that he appreciated.

 

"Yes, Gabrielle and I are best friends in this company. Why are you asking, Manager Jason?" Lolita asked him uneasily.

 

He was the boss of the company and this was the first time that they had been so close to each other. She could even feel his breath.

 

It made Lolita feel very nervous, and so she was trying to speak with Jason more carefully.

 

'Oh my God! What am I going to do now that I'm left alone with my boss and we're working overtime?' Lolita thought, her mind was in chaos. She needed to ask someone.

 

But Gabrielle ran away already.

 

Lolita felt that there was something wrong with her.

 

"I know you are good friends. Of course, I have no question about that. I am Gabrielle's mentor, and since you are her friend, you can call me in a more casual way," Jason explained.

 

"Should I call you 'teacher'?" Lolita's mind went blank and she couldn't properly think of what to say.

 

Jason found her so funny. Was this woman really too honest?

 

"Do you want to call me by how Gabrielle was calling me in private?" Jason almost asked her to just call him by his first name.

 

"Jason?" Lolita looked at Jason and asked confusedly.

 

"Well, you can call me that if it's only us," Jason answered seriously.

 

Lolita stared at him in surprise. She couldn't completely process what he just said.

 

"I don't think it's a good idea, you are my boss. Gabrielle is only calling you with your name because you are her mentor, but you are not my mentor," Lolita said firmly.
