âHave you calmed down a bit?â Jason asked with a smile.
âYes, yes. Iâm sorry. Iâm just so Pacited. Never in my wildest dreams and I think of actually seeing one of the women 1 admired most in the fleste Gabrielle felt her cheeks grow hot She felt like a little girl who was going to meet her favorite cartoon princess.
âOkay, great. But thereâs more. Iâm sure youâre going to be even more thrilled to hear it.â Seeing that Gabrielle was ready for the next part of his news, Jason decided to break it to her.
âWell, what is it? Go ahead, Jason.â Gabrielle tried hard to suppress her excitement.
What else could possibly get her more fired up than meeting Melissa? Gabrielle honestly did not know if there was such âThe date and time of the seminar have been set, and itâs after New Yearâs Eve but Melissa has always been very strict and senious with her work, so she will come to check the venue in advance next week. Her hotel room has been booked by a sponsor, but Jackson will pick her use from the airport. I want you to go th him. Is that okay?â Jason asked her eamestly After Jason finished his question, Gabrielle put a hand over her mouth. She stared at Jason with wide eyes. âOh, my God! Tha Ys so incredible! I get to pick up Melisas from the airport, too!â The news sounded like a lottery win to Gabrielle. She could not believe it.
She felt like every joy and pain in her life for the last twenty years had been leading up to this very moment.
âIs it okay if I pick up my idol from the airport? Of course it is! Yes, yes, I will go! When is she flying in?â Gabrielle chanced a curious glance at Jackson.
Until now, she had no idea that Jackson was Melissaâs student. How could she have known anyway? Jackson was a cold. low-
key man who did not talk about anything to anyone, especially about himself, However, she found it amazing that Melissa admitted him. As far as she knew, Melissa did not easily acces apprentices, except that she might Nike in some privately. Although Melis led a private life and there was no way to confirm if Jackson really speciâsome time under her tutelage, sbrielle still believed him. Why wild he lie about being Melissaâs mendè? If she had been in his shoes, she would not have shut up about it. 0°
Gabrielle felt a slight pang of jealousy She would have given anything to be Melissaâs student:
âMelissa hasnât booked her flight yet, but Iâll send you the details once theyâre confirmed. Gabrielle, remember not to be late.
Melissa extremely values punctuality and hates tardy people. Donât leave a bad impression on her. Youâre aware that many new designers like you would kill to meet her like this, arenât you?â Jason Wanned her his smiling face suddenly turning serious. âYes, I am. I know, Jason. I will be on time.â Gabrielle nodded. still unable to stop grinning âIf you canât guarantee that you wonât mess up, I suggest you turn down theo task now. I donât want my mentoreto despise Antawood because you can be professional,â Jackson said to vibrielle in his usual icy tone. It was obvious that Jackpot only agreed to let Gabrielle come cause of Jasonâs gleaming recommegetation. He did not trust that she wond do everything right and impress hipteacher.
Gabrielle found Jacksonâs words a bit hurtful, but she did not take them to heart. He was only trying to make sure that his beloved mentor would be graciously welcomed and well taken care of in Antawood. It was a treatment any good student wanted for their teachers.
Of course Gabrielle was fully decided to put her best foot forward. The last thing she wanted was to disappoint Melissa.
âI understand your concem, Jackson, but I promise you that I will be at my best.â
âWell, you better not break that promise when Melissa tliesil. sincerely hope that you donât let her down. If you dü, you can kiss your seminar attendance goodbye. I wonât allow you to come, and Jason wonât be able to make me.â Jackson was not trying to threaten Gabrielle at all, but he meant what he said he would des if she screwed up.
He would not let her take ever one glance at the seminarâs venud doors if she did not do a great job wiose picking up Melissa at the airport. Gabrielleâs smile slomly turned into a straight face. Sloexy glanced at Jason uneasily âJackson, you donât have to frighten Gabrielle like that. Sheâs my star student. I know her better than you do. She wonât mess up.â Jason really could not do anything about the way Jackson spoke when it came to his teachers. The man had always been passionate on the matter and did not tolerate preventable mistakes.
âI just want her to consider herself wamed so that if she does leave a bad impression on Melissa, she knows whatâs coming to her,â Jackson said directly.
âThis is important to me, too. Jackson, and believe it or not, I know better than to mess it up.â Gabrielle muttered.
âDonât listen to him, Gabrielle. Youâll be fine. You got this. Donât be nervous. Youâre going to do great. Iâll send yopo Melissaâs travel details when they are ready. You may leave now.â Deing Gabrielle shaken by Jackson lip that, Jason felt a little worried. He tad never seen her so scared. Jackson really had to work on communicating etter with his colleagues. O âThank you, Jason, Jackson,â Gabrielle nodded to them and left in a hurry.
Now she was both excited and scared, but her enthusiasm was strong enough to triumph over her fear. When she entered her work partition, she finally let out her elated squeals and jumped up and down. +
Seeing her like that, Lolita came over.
âWhatâs going on? Why are you jumping il round happily? Lolita asked.
Gabrielle looked at her and then averted her zaze. Lolita was also a newcomer, but her qualifications were way more impressive.
She went to a top foreign design school and know more about the world of jewelry design, so Gabrielle could not help feeling a little bit guilty. Between the two of them, Lolita was the better choice to attend the seminar, yet she did not get picked. Gabrielle did nge know if she should share the news with her. âNothing.â In the end, she fecided to hold back. She did not want to upset Lolita.
âNothing? Gabriele weâre good friends. We should share stuff, good or bad. But fine, if you really donât want to tell me, then just forget I asked.â Lolita was a straightforward person. She said what was on her mind. She did not like wasting time overthinking her thoughts before blurting them out.
âAll right. Come closer.â Gabrielle beckoned her over.
Lolita did as she was told and walked Over to Gabrielle.
âIâm going to meet the famous jewelry design master. Melissa, Gabrielle whispered to her.
âWow, Gabrielle, thatâs awesome! ATC you going to the seminar then?â Lolita asked directly.
Hearing this, Gabrielle looked at her and tipped her head to the side. âYou kr about the seminar?â
âOf course. I heard about it anew days ago. Did Jason recommcoe you to attend?â Lolita raised her eyebrows at her.
Gabrielle had no dea that the seminar was not really a secret. She just nodded. âYes. Jason recommended me. Melissa is one of the guest speakers. Iâm so excited to see her in person. I canât waitâ
Melissa was a legend in the field of jewelry design. She created world famous pieces, some of which were even made especially for wealthy socialites and celebrities. She even designed ones for the first lady herself, and no amount of money or height of status could equal that honor.
âCongratulations, Gabrielle. Iâm so happy for you. Melissa is the real deal You should take a photo with her when you meet Oh, can you get me an autograph?â Lolita said excitedly.
âYouâre really happy for me? Youâre not angry?â Gabrielle asked cautiously. Lolita seemed to be startled by one question.
