Lock You In My Heart Chapter 403

Lolita was furious. She gnashed her teeth, pointing at Vivian as the latter walked away.

“What kind of person is she? Does she really think that highly of herself? What an arrogant prick! She’s barely a few years older than us, and yet she acts all high and mighty. If you hadn’t pulled me earlier, I would’ve pounced on that bitch and torn her face apart!” Lolita gave Vivian the finger while cursing her. And the more swear words that came out of Lolita’s mouth, the angrier she became.

Gabrielle knew that it was time to stop Lolita and calm her down. “Lolita, do you really hate Vivian that much?”

“Of course, I do! She may hate us, but I hate her ten times more! When she was belittling us earlier, I wanted to tear that bitch a new one! What does she even have to be proud of? That bitch!” Lolita snarled.

“Well, if you hate her that much, do you think she’s worth your anger? I don’t think so. Do you understand what I’m trying to say?” Gabrielle responded.

Upon hearing this, Lolita restrained her bursting emotions, staring at Gabrielle in confusion.

“I can tell that you don’t like that woman either, Gabrielle. Why did you agree to take part in the discussion meeting? It’s obvious that she’s just using that meeting to entrap you. Why would you willingly throw yourself into the trap? Have you gone mad?” Lolita asked in a loud voice.

In response, Gabrielle burst into laughter.

“Of course, I don’t like her. I’m well aware that she has some trick up her sleeve, but I do agree that the discussion meeting could be worthwhile. I’m not worried about going there because you’ll be right with me. If I were to go alone, I’d rather not go. Lolita, I don’t want us to miss this opportunity. Even if Vivian

is scheming something nefarious, when we’re together, there’s nothing to be afraid of!” she replied with a smile.

The way Gabrielle was praising her made Lolita feel too ashamed to get angry.

Moreover, she figured it would be worthwhile to go to that discussion meeting with Gabrielle even if it was a dangerous place.

Because of that, Lolita could no longer refuse.

“You’re right. Two heads are better than one! There’s nothing to be afraid of. Don’t worry! No matter what she’s planning, I’m going to protect you!” Lolita held Gabrielle’s hand, determined to protect her.

Gabrielle, on the other hand, was amused by Lolita’s reaction, and she was happy that my side, I have nothing to fear,” she declared.

“Worry not, Gabrielle! I will do my best to protect you. patting her own chest.

“Come on, let’s go! We shouldn’t make Vivian wait for too long. She’ll get even more upset with us.” It wasn’t easy for Gabrielle to swallow her pride and coax Vivian in order to make the latter less hostile towards her. She preferred not to let all of her efforts go in vain and increase that woman’s hostility again.

“Alright. Grab your bag and let’s go.”

They then grabbed their purses, walking to Vivian standing in front of her own car with her arms crossed.

The way she appeared to them was like a haughty noble. Upon seeing the two of them slowly coming out of the building, Vivian cast them a disdainful glance and scoffed.

“I thought you two lost the guts to come with me and already tried to escape,” she snorted.

“Vivian, we were only composing ourselves and freshening up. After all, we’re coming with you your sake,” G

abrielle explained, holding onto Lolita’s wrist when she noticed that her friend was about to explode.

Fortunately, her words were enough to appease Vivian. “I never pegged you for being a considerate woman, Gabrielle. Anyway, go hail a cab and follow me,” said Vivian.

Without even waiting for them, she immediately opened the door of her car, got in, and started the engine.

When her white car disappeared in front of them, Lolita immediately expressed her displeasure, and stopped Gabrielle from hailing a cab. “Gabrielle, don’t hail a cab! She already left us behind. We don’t have to go. We should just get some dinner. If she asks us why we didn’t show up, we can just say that we failed to follow her car.”

Actually, Lolita didn’t want to go. No matter how prominent the seniors would be, she still didn’t want to go.

Vivian had trampled on her self-esteem before even going to that meeting. If Lolita were to attend, that woman would certainly humiliate her again. Thus, she didn’t want to go anymore.

Gabrielle moved her hand away, and showed her phone to Lolita. On the screen was the address that Vivian had sent her.

“What do you think? Should we go or not? If we don’t go, it just means you’re admitting that we’re cowards. Vivian might do something worse to us in the workplace sometime soon,” Gabrielle asked, visibly amused.

If this was the case, they had no other choice but to go!

‘Damn it! That cunning vixen of a woman! Vivian got the better of us again!’

Lolita was so angry that she was grinding her teeth.

“The taxi is coming. Let’s go,” said Gabrielle. Once the taxi arrived, they got on at once.

Throughout the entire journey, Lolita was so frustrated.

“Do you even know why Vivian acts so arrogantly? Does it make her happy when she makes fun of us?” Lolita felt that it was unfair.

‘I don’t like being played for a fool! Why should I have to suffer through this?’ she wondered.

“Because right now, she’s the chief designer of the studio. To top it off, she’s a well-known designer in the field, and she’s our senior. We’re compelled to obey her, and play along with her trickeries. Lolita, I can tell that you don’t like being toyed with, do you?” Naturally, Gabrielle knew what Lolita was thinking.

After all, who would want to be treated like an idiot?

However, most of the time, they had no other choice but to play along.

This was the reality of their society. Many things could crush a person’s self-esteem, even if they didn’t want it to happen.

Only when you become strong enough could you prevent people from trying to control and destroy you, could you hold onto your self-esteem.

“Of course, not! Who would want to be played for a fool, especially by someone like Vivian? Who does she think she is?” Lolita growled.

With her family background and educational experience, she shouldn’t be pushed around by Vivian like this. However, she didn’t want to expose her true identity right now. All she wanted to do at present was to thrive as a design assistant in peace. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Her identity would only invoke trouble to her life. If it weren’t for this matter, she never would’ve come to Antawood alone from Paris just to find a small designing company and become an assistant.

“Lolita, once you have earned achievements and a higher status than Vivian, you won’t have to be pushed around by anyone ever again. This is the reality of our society. Without a strong background, you’ll need to become capable enough to protect yourself,” Gabrielle explained calmly.
