Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 638

After lunch, the men went to sit in the small living room to chat. They were chatting happily, discussing almost every topic, from financial news to international news. When they discussed one could think that each of the subjects they approached was particularly close to their hearts, as they went in depth.

When Gabrielle and Sophie brought them coffee, both women had the opportunity to listen to their conversation. These men were really talking about everything. They even discussed about the army and the ongoing war. They had covered just about every topic that it was hard to imagine what else they could discuss.

Gabrielle couldn't understand much of what they were talking about. Besides, she wasn't really interested in their discussion, and she had no qualifications to participate. Gabrielle and Sophie put the trays on the coffee table and left the room.

The cookies and desserts Macy had brought were simply the best in town. It didn't take long for the dishes to be empty. Fortunately, there was enough to make cakes in the kitchen. So Macy took Lolita to the kitchen to bake some cakes and cookies.

"How about making fruitcakes and cookies. Blueberries or mangoes will be great flavors," Lolita said while chopping some fruits.

Although she knew nothing about bakery, Lolita did not hesitate to give her opinion. She was there to help after all. In fact, Lolita had never baked a cake in the past, so she was feeling a little awkward right now.

As for Macy, she wasn't the best baker there was and she knew it. As a matter of fact, Gabrielle was a much better cook than she was. However, Macy was the daughter of a renowned cake baker, so she definitely must have learnt one or two things from her mother.

Perhaps her pastries wouldn't have that excellent flavor or appearance, but that didn't really matter.

What really mattered most of the time, was not the result, but the process.

Macy loved to make cakes and cookies every now and then, and even though her pastries were not five star, they were made with so much love that people always ate them happily.

Lolita, on the other hand, was excited about making cakes for the first time. She had this strong desire to learn how to make cakes the day when, passing in front of a pastry shop, she saw through the window, the baker carefully making cakes.

It was that day that her love for bakery was born. If she hadn't learned jewelry design, she would have learned how to make desserts.

Suddenly, the door to the kitchen was opened and Gabrielle came in. "Everything is ready. Is there anything else you need, Macy? Just tell me and I will ask the housekeeper to buy it," Gabrielle said with concern. She was pleased to see that both women were almost done with the preparation.

"Well, I don't think we need anything else. Gabrielle, you are better at this than I am, so tell me, what do you think?" Macy asked seriously.

As far as Macy was concerned, though Gabrielle had only learnt to make cakes recently, she was still much better at this. After all, Gabrielle's talent was acknowledged by everyone who tasted her pastries. Because of that, Macy felt that Gabrielle would definitely know if anything was lacking to make the cakes.

Gabrielle walked forward and inspected the material on the kitchen table. "Well, it looks like everything we need is here. We can start making desserts now. The chefs will be here soon. We'll have a barbecue in the yard tonight. Is there anything special you both would like to eat? Whatever it is, I'll ask the chefs to prepare them for you." As she spoke, Gabrielle turned the tap and washed her hands so that they could start preparing the cakes.

"I'm fine with whatever they cook," Macy answered seriously. In fact, she wasn't a picky eater, especially when she was invited to other people's homes. She always accepted whatever the host offered.

Besides, Gabrielle was an excellent cook and the dishes she prepared were always delicious.

"Okay. How about you, Lolita?" Gabrielle asked, looking at Lolita.

"Well, I would just like a lamb kebab. It would be better if there was also lamb chop on the menu. In fact, I would be delighted if we could also have a roast whole lamb," Lolita replied.

Of course, she was just kidding. However, Gabrielle didn't seem to realize it was a joke and replied seriously, "Okay. I'll ask Sophie to inform the chef to add a roast lamb on the menu." After saying that, Gabrielle turned around and headed for the door. She was actually going out to fin

d Sophie.

Realizing that Gabrielle took her joke seriously, Lolita hurried to stop her. "No, Gabrielle. I was just joking. You didn't seriously think I would want to eat a whole roast lamb, did you?"

"Lolita, you want to eat a whole lamb?" Jason suddenly at the kitchen door. He heard the last part of Lolita's sentence, and he completely misunderstood it. Thinking that Lolita had actually asked Gabrielle to cook her a whole roast lamb, he looked at her in amazement.

At this point, Lolita was really embarrassed and she couldn't stand Jason's gaze.

However, even if Lolita wanted to convince herself that Jason wasn't giving her any special treatment, she still had to admit that he was showing her special attention these days. Besides, just today, he had offered to pick her up before coming to Gabrielle's.

Lolita initially wanted to refuse, but Jason pointed out the fact that she would have a hard time finding a taxi on holiday. As he was heading to Gabrielle's place, it would be more convenient that he picked her up.

Lolita had to admit that he had a point. She was aware of the difficulties in finding a taxi in these festive times. She therefore had to accept Jason's offer.

Not only did Jason pick her up, but along the way, he even accompanied her to the mall so that she could buy a gift for Gabrielle.

Despite all this, Lolita didn't think too much. Jason was the boss of their studio and was well known for being kind and easy going. He treated each employee like his own family and was very approachable, unlike other bosses.

In fact, it was because of his kindness that Lolita felt Jason treated everyone the same. Therefore, she didn't think she was any special to him. Whatever he did for her was just out of genuine kindness.

"Jason is a considerate man by nature. He never hesitates to help those in need," Gabrielle said as if she guessed what was in Lolita's mind. She knew Jason very well and she knew exactly what kind of person he was.

Although Jason seemed to be nice with everyone, that wasn't actually the case. In fact, he was only good to people related to him. He was very protective of those people he loved.

In Jason's mind, the employees of the studio were divided into two groups. There were those whom he considered as his family, and there were his working partners.

He made a clear difference between personal affection and business connections.

"That's true, Gabrielle. Mr. Foster is indeed a considerate boss," Lolita agreed sincerely.

At this point, the uneasiness she felt moments ago had completely disappeared.
