Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 424

Lolita's obedient and timid look made Jason calm down quite a lot. How could he lose his temper in front of such a cute face.

Seeing that Lolita was about to take off his coat, Jason reached out and forcibly put the coat on her. She looked so small in it.

"It's a little cold in the car. Wear it," Jason snapped.

Lolita was actually cold. Her dress was strapless, so her shoulders were bare. She rubbed her arms and shivered—even her breath plumed in the air.

Even so, the coat belonged to Jason. She could smell his musky scent on it, and it was still warm from his body—all of which made her uncomfortable.

But since Jason told her not to take it off, she continued to wear it. He was her boss, after all.

"Thank you for your coat, Mr. Foster. Now, let's get down to business." Lolita decided to put it on for a while. After they finished talking, she would naturally return it to him. She absolutely had no intention of taking it home.

"Let's have dinner first. I haven't had dinner yet, and I'm hungry." Jason buckled his seat belt and started the car.

Lolita's mind went blank all of a sudden. She furrowed her forehead. What was going on? Didn't Jason ask her to come down in such a hurry to listen to her explanation about what happened at the exchange meeting? Now, he wants to eat dinner?

She knew the matter was important, and yet, he wanted to have dinner first before listening to her. He was no longer in a rush to talk to her.

"Mr. Foster, it's already ten o'clock. Haven't you eaten yet? It's called midnight snack now," Lolita pointed out.

"Oh, so you care about me, huh?" Jason smiled, not taking his eyes off the road. He was definitely in a good mood. He suddenly looked chipper.

"Well, sort of. You're my boss, you know. I should care about you." Lolita shrugged. It was the truth, of course.

Besides, this kind of concern was in Lolita's nature. Whether it was her friend, her boss, or even strangers, when someone told her they hadn't had dinner yet, she always asked why—especially when it was already late.

"I see. Mr. Foster, you must be working on a design draft that's why you haven't eaten anything at this late hour. You can't go on like this. It's not good for you and your health. If you don't listen to your body and forget to eat at the right time, you may end up with a stomach problem." Lolita was half-facing him. She had to remind him because it wasn't a healthy habit.

Many designers like them were easily carried away by their work that they would forget their meals. It wasn't uncommon to end up with stomach issues.

Because of the special nature of their work, they often became too busy to eat. So, when they did sit down for a meal, they would binge. That would easily upset the stomach. She didn't want that to happen to Jason.

"Okay, I see. I'll remember that." Jason spared a glance at Lolita and gave her a brief nod.

Lolita felt her cheeks burn in embarrassment. She forgot her place once again. She was an ordinary employee, and she didn't have the right to mind her boss' business.

She was out of line. Lolita closed her eyes and gnawed on her bottom lip. She let out a breath slowly.

This was absolutely forbidden in the company. Lolita stayed in a foreign country for many years, and she had worked in another studio. She already had some experience and knew the rules of the workplace.

She knew it was a mistake to cross the line.

"Mr. Foster, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to meddle like this. It's just that you haven't eaten anything. So, how about this? Let me treat you tonight. What do you want to eat?" Lolita hurried to find an excuse for herself. She didn't want to anger him or make him think that she was going overboard.

"Okay, fine. What do you want to eat?" Jason didn't refuse her kindness at all. He drummed his fingers on the steering wheel as he waited for her answer.

"I don't need to..."
