Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 569

From the bottom of her heart, Gabrielle didn't want to have any interaction with Denton at all. Somehow, the frivolous look in his eyes as he looked at her annoyed her a lot. It was as if he could see right through her heart.

However, she couldn't bluntly express it or avoid him, which irritated her even more.

"Mr. Sanderson, what can I do for you?" Gabrielle willed herself to ask out of feigned politeness.

All she wanted to do was to end this encounter as soon as possible so that she could leave.

"Ms. Jones, you seem to be dissatisfied with me in some ways. Why do you act hostile to me?" Denton asked back in reply as he looked at Gabrielle with a cynical smile.

"Mr. Sanderson, you misunderstood. Why should I be hostile to you when there's no enmity between you and me?" Gabrielle retorted patiently.

"If you feel this way, then that's good. After all, I am really looking forward to making friends with you, Ms. Jones." Denton spread out his palm and gave her a friendly smile.

Hearing this, Gabrielle went silent. She didn't know what to say.

Denton said he wanted to make friends with her, but she had no intention to do so with the man in front of her at all. If she could choose, she would rather make friends with Nathan who saved her life. At least, that would be interesting since she could learn something about jewelry from him while the man in front of her didn't seem to know anything about jewelry.

Besides, how could she not know that Denton didn't really mean about making friends with her? He was probably just curious about her for a moment and would be tired of her soon.

"Mr. Sanderson, I am going to be blunt. Is there anything you need from me? If there is nothing else..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Denton who covered his own chest and said pitifully, "Oh, Ms. Jones, it seems that you hate me so much. I am very sad." Denton's frivolous look really made Gabrielle speechless.

She had never met a man like him who made her suffer from headache. She wished she would never see him again.

She sighed helplessly. There was no need to be polite with a man like Denton anyway. Not to mention that her impression of him was not very good.

It was unnecessary for them to know each other, let alone making friends.

"Mr. Sanderson, we are not even familiar with each other. There's no reason for me to harbor animosity towards you. If you have anything to say, just say it." Not wanting to argue with him any longer, Gabrielle went straight to the point, her tone curt and her words brief.

Moreover, she could sense that this guy had an ulterior motive, judging from the sinister look in his eyes.

"Alright, I just want to ask you what the relationship between you and my brother is. Can you elaborate?" With a faint smile on his face, Denton made a request.

Gabrielle didn't expect that Denton would insist upon such a matter.

She said impatiently, "Mr. Sanderson, didn't you hear clearly what I said just now? Your brother and I are just ordinary friends and nothing more. Why do you ask me such a question when it's so simple?" Gabrielle looked at Denton coldly, predicting what the real motive of this man could be.

She could understand if this was Wilma who asked this kind of question to her. After all, as a member of the Sanderson Family, it was natural for Wilma to have concern about her son's wife.

The Sanderson Family would try their best to protect its interests and so, Wilma's son would have to marry someone who was from family of equal status in the future.

Therefore, Wilma would be strict with her future daughter-in-law, which was fully understandable.

However, it was Denton who asked her this question now. She couldn't help feeling suspicious.

"Ms. Jones, I'm serious. I am just curious about the relationship between you and my brother. I care about you. After all, I liked you at the first sight and want to make friends with you." Denton convinced, smiling gently.

Instead of feeling welcomed by his smile, Gabrielle didn't feel any tenderness and only felt bad premonition in her heart.
