Noticing how anxious I was, Yuval reached out and held my hand as he comforted me, “Don’t worry. I doubt they have the guts to do that because it would constitute assault and battery, which can result in some pretty serious legal repercussions.”

“Really? They won’t?”

 

Yuval was a lawyer and knew the legal system like the back of his hand, so I felt a little relieved after hearing what he said.

Still, Steven owed them more than a hundred thousand this time, so it was hard to say how far those men would go.

Yuval tightened his grip on my hand and said with a firm look in his eyes, “Stop worrying so much. Your frown is so deep that you look like an old lady right now!”

 

“Thank you.”

His words of reassurance worked like a charm, and I flashed him a faint smile in response.

I was actually very grateful to Yuval. Even if he wouldn’t be able to fully accept my family’s problems, the fact that he chose to stay with me this time proved how big-hearted he was.

 

“There is no need to thank me. I am your boyfriend, after all!”

The look on my face grew awkward the moment I heard him mention “boyfriend”. We had known each other for a few months, but it felt like we were friends instead of lovers.
