Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 246 She Is Not His Type

With everyone gazing and staring at the two of them, Lance casually strolled up to Gabrielle in his suave manner, bent down and reached his hand out to Gabrielle. He was charming everyone with his gentlemanly manners. “Gabrielle, may I invite you to dance with me?”

Gabrielle, halfway through peelin her orange, grew startled by the Budden

gesture.

She hadn’t expected Lace to come to her and invite her dilectly. He should have just danced wib Mindy and no one would have had anything to say about it.

Gabrielle could feel the countless pairs of eyes staring at her and one was more prominent than the others – Cherie’s. Cherie was so angry, she could kill Gabrielle right there.

“How many enemies is Lance creating for me?!’ Gabrielle thought regretfully.

“But Lance…”
