Lock You In My Heart Chapter 425
Chapter 425
“I trust you.”
Those were hammer pounding into Lolita’s heart.
It was a great thing to be trusted.
Coming from his boss, she felt proud.
“I’m delighted, Mr. Foster. The seafood porridge is to die for, I swear. I haven’t been in Antawood for a long time, but their menu is super delicious. My friend Gabrielle couldn’t share it with me since she’s allergic to seafood. It’s such a shame because she’s the only friend I made in here.” Lolita sounded a little disappointed.
Even though it was Gabrielle who brought her here the first time, she only had barbecue and beer. The two of them were like worlds apart.
“I’m really happy that we can eat together, Mr. Foster.” Lolita smiled.
“It’s my pleasure. And if you could call me by my name, I’d be very happy.” His boss had told her many times.
“Jason?” Lolita shyly called.
“That’s right. Just hearing you say my name lifts my spirits. You want me to be happy, right?” Jason teased.
Lolita nodded almost immediately. “Okay. I’ll call you Jason when it’s just us. But on other occasions, I better call you Mr. Foster, okay?”
“Deal.”
Jason smiled.
“So, Jason, is there anything else you want to eat?” Lolita had always been bold. She didn’t find it hard to start calling him intimately.
“You can order anything you like. It’s my first time here, surprise me.” Jason winked.
“Then, are you allergic to anything? Is there anything you don’t like?” Lolita asked, wanting to making sure.
“Nope, go ahead.”
“Great! I’ll order then.” It was such a relief to Lolita not having to worry about other people’s allergies when choosing food.
Jason brought a glass of water to his lips, looking gently at Lolita’s ecstatic face.
Sometimes, with girls, happiness comes easily.
“Lolita.” Looking at the Christmas decorations outside the window, Jason called out her.
“What’s up, Jason?” Lolita turned to him.
She didn’t realize that she never felt awkward calling him by his name anymore.
“Christmas is coming. What are you going to do?” Jason asked.
In truth, Jason didn’t have a deep understanding of the festivals. On several traditional occasions, he would be asked to go back to the Foster mansion to have dinners. Other festivals were all the same, more so, foreign festivals.
But now it was different. He suddenly wanted to enjoy Christmas.
“Oh, right. It’s Christmas the day after tomorrow. I haven’t decided what to do yet.” Lolita smiled.
Last Christmas, she was still in Paris. Back there, they celebrate it wildly like the New Year’s.
At that time, she was with
her friends, and the man who eventually broke her heart.
Since she came back to Antawood, she didn’t pay much attention to Christmas. She didn’t have pretty memories about the season.
“There’s still time to think about it.” Jason smiled. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“Hmm, since Kendal is in Antawood, I’ll probably spend Christmas with him, nothing major,” Lolita mindlessly said.
“If preparing is a hassle for you, then, I can…”
“Oh, you want to say that there is a Christmas dinner in the company, right? If there is, I can tell Kendal first. If not, he will get angry with me for standing him up,” Lolita said excitedly.
Many young people abroad were still very happy about Christmas, and in fact, they were finding excuses to go on a date. Many start-ups would also have dinners or hold small parties to celebrate.
Jason’s company was engaged in jewelry design. Surely, a young and vibrant company would also paint the town red.
Lolita was looking forward to it.
“Yes, but I’m not handling it. It’s the planning department that decides. We have yet the place and time.” Jason admitted.
The planning department would hold a small event for Thanksgiving day, Halloween, and Christmas every year. As the boss, Jason never took part in the plan. He only needed to sign the documents and approve them.
“It sounds exciting!” Lolita’s eyes widened.
“Anyway, how did you spend Christmas abroad?” Jason asked curiously.
“I had dinner with friends. Christmas is a big deal, but personally, I think it’s the same everywhere. What really matters when celebrating festivals is who you spend it with.” Lolita smiled ruefully.
She thought of her sad past and the man who rejected her.
“That’s true.” Jason nodded.
On the second day, Gabrielle woke up with a rumbling stomach. In a daze, she looked out of the window. It was still early outside. When she turned around, she saw Westley lying next to her. She felt at ease.
Westley was still sleeping. He looked so innocent.
So different from when he was awake. He was like a devil walking the earth.
But at that moment, he was a very lovely angel.
An energetic one at that. Gabrielle felt a sharp pain in her waist.
Just when Gabrielle reached out her hand to touch his face, Westley slowly opened his eyes.
“Awake already? Was last night too much?”
That was his first reaction. He couldn’t stop himself last night, especially when Gabrielle initiated the whole thing.
Last night, she passed out. How could Westley not worry when she woke up so early?
“Mm, I’m just hungry,” Gabrielle shyly said.
