Lock You In My Heart Chapter 423

‘Huh? My relationship with Jason?’

Lolita looked at Kendal in a daze, completely unexpected that he would ask such a question.

“Kendal, what do you mean by that?” As she spoke out her thought, her eyes were filled with perplexity. The uneasiness in her heart had been replaced by confusion.

‘Isn’t Kendal’s question strange and boring? Didn’t I already talk about that during the meeting? Or did he not hear it clearly at the time?’ Thoughts raced through her head in an instant.

“Kendal, Jason is my boss, the boss of our company, and also a very famous jewelry designer. He is my senior. If you ask me about our relationship, we are just boss and employee, senior and junior. What else could there be?” Lolita couldn’t help but end up laughing after she finished her words.

She had never expected Kendal to be so gossipy to the point that he would ask her such a silly question.

“Kendal, don’t be ridiculous. There is nothing more than that between Mr. Foster and me. What else do you want to know?” Lolita was not afraid to back up her words at all and looked at Kendal with a proud expression on her face.

“Boss and employee, senior and junior? Lolita, do you think I’m blind or stupid? Can you believe it yourself?” Kendal stared into her eyes and asked very seriously.

“Of course, I believe it. I can believe it because this is the truth. Why would I not believe it?” Lolita said with a smile. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

A gloomy aura flashed across Kendal’s face as he heard those words. “Lolita, have you lost your mind after all those years of studying in France? What kind of boss is so protective of his employees that he even dared to snatch you from me?”

“Snatch me from you?” Lolita couldn’t figure out what he meant for a time, but she eventually realized.

“Kendal, don’t be so narrow-minded, okay? Mr. Foster didn’t snatch me from you. He said that because he didn’t know you were my cousin. He stopped after he knew it. Our boss is very kind to every employee in the company. Don’t overthink.” This time, Lolita gave out a serious explanation.

She realized she should clarify seriously because, with Kendal’s wild imagination, he would still be making up his own scenarios in his head. She didn’t want him to doubt her relationship with her boss, no matter what he thought.

“Lolita, is it because I’m thinking too much, or you’re too stupid to notice that Jason likes you?” Kendal said to Lolita in a serious tone.

Lolita burst out laughing as if she had heard a joke.

“Kendal, our boss is not that idle. He likes me? Can you stop being so stupid?” As she said, Lolita reached out and patted Kendal’s shoulder to shake him out of his imagination.

She felt that Kendal’s mood was probably not doing well in Antawood. Or else, why would he think about such things?

Moreover, Jason treated her the same way he treated other employees.

Lolita was now more worried that Kendal would seize this chance and use it to force her out of the company.

“Kendal, don’t worry. Our boss is very picky. Do you think any girl can attract his attention? Have you seen Vivian? She is a beautiful, elegant, and famous jewelry designer. She has liked our boss for many years. In order to be able to stay with him, she had turned down several work invitations from top jewelry companies. Even if our boss is looking for someone, it should be a beautiful and talented girl

like Vivian. Do you understand?” Lolita couldn’t stop herself from rapping out those explanations to Kendal.

“Vivian? Isn’t she such a bitch?” With such words, it was clear that Kendal’s impression of Vivian was not so good. Well, actually very bad.

Kendal believed that Jason would be able to see that Vivian was hostile to other women if only he was not blind. As long as the man was not stupid, he would definitely not like such a woman.

He hoped that Jason would not be a brainless man.

“What bitch? Don’t talk nonsense.” Hearing Kendal’s blunt comment, Lolita didn’t know how to react. Although she didn’t like Vivian very much, it didn’t make her feel good to hear Kendal speaking so harshly o

f Vivian.

“To be honest, compared to her, our Lolita is much better. A man who is not blind knows how to choose,”

Kendal said seriously.

“Kendal, I am your cousin. Of course, you would say that! But I will take it as a compliment. I like it.” Lolita’s lips curved into a smile as she looked at Kendal.

“Silly girl, I’m telling the truth.” Kendal rolled his eyes at her.

“Since your cousin is so perfect, you won’t tell my parents that I’m in Antawood, right?” Lolita immediately put on a pitiful look and looked at him.

“Okay, I won’t tell them. But you have to tell me what happened to you in Paris? You came back without saying a word, and you are even hiding in Antawood. There is nothing you can’t tell me. I will help you.” Kendal spoke out his worries.

Lolita looked at him hesitantly. “Cousin, I…”

Before she could finish her words, her phone rang. When she saw that the one calling was Jason, her face immediately became serious, and she cast a glance at Kendal anxiously. “Kendal, he’s my boss!”

“Look at you! When did the Anderson family have a coward like you? If Jason dares to do anything to you or scolds you, I will teach him a lesson for you and then take his small company away,” Kendal said angrily.

“Kendal, please investigate Mr. Foster’s background first. I’ll answer the phone.” Not daring to meet the pair of fierce eyes, Lolita ran out of the room with her phone.

“Hello, Mr. Foster!” Lolita stopped in the corridor and answered the phone.

“Come down. I’m at the gate of the hotel.” A brief instruction came into her ears.

For a moment, she was taken aback. But she immediately restored her composure and asked, “Mr. Foster, aren’t you going to see Vivian off?”

“I’m back to pick you up,” Jason said casually.

“Pick me up? No need, I’ll stay here tonight…”

“Don’t postpone what you can do today until tomorrow. You don’t have to wait until tomorrow. Just explain it to me now.” Jason cut Lolita off before she could finish her sentence.

A sense of unease formed in his heart as he thought of Kendal’s attitude. Although he was aware that Kendal was Lolita’s cousin, the way he was protective of his sister made him jealous.

“Then…, alright. Wait for a moment.” Lolita finally agreed.

“I’m waiting for you.” As soon as he finished his words, Jason hung up the phone.

Lolita took a look at the closed door, her mind reluctant to enter since she knew she had to deal with Kendal. She was sure Kendal wouldn’t let her go downstairs, but her coat and bag were left inside.

For a brief moment, Lolita was absorbed in her thoughts. ‘Anyway, there are air conditioners all across the hotel, so I’ll only be cold when I go out. Then I’ll go upstairs after talking with Jason,’ she reasoned.

As soon as she had come up with a solution in her mind, Lolita ran out of the hotel. Jason saw the sight of a girl coming out of the hotel in a thin piece of dress that obviously couldn’t keep the cold away. He immediately got out of the car and put his coat on her.

“Mr. Foster?” Noticing Jason’s action, Lolita was taken aback for a while. When she looked up, she saw a handsome face filled with anger.

“Lolita, it’s winter. Do you know how cold it is right now? It’s ten degrees Celsius today. Don’t you feel cold?” Jason’s fierce voice filled the air.

After noticing that the other party was not in the best stage of mind, Lolita didn’t dare to speak anymore. Only then did she realize Jason was only wearing a single shirt since he had put his coat on her. She felt that they should get into the car as soon as possible.

“Mr. Foster, you give me the coat. You don’t feel cold?”

“I’m a man. I won’t be frozen to death.”

Hearing Jason’s response, Lolita swallowed down the urge to retort that she would not be frozen to death simply because she was a woman. After all, it was only dozens of meters away.

“Then, let’s get in the car, Mr. Foster.” She quickly urged Jason to get into the car.

“Mr. Foster, I’m sorry for making you cold.” As soon as they got into the car, Lolita gave out an apology.
