Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Torture

I didn’t want to die too miserably, so I quickly turned to smile at him. “You must be very hungry, Mr. Hartnell. Come on, let’s eat…”

After that, I couldn’t continue talking anymore because I could feel the fiery wrath coming from his intense gaze. If he could kill me with just one look, that would be it.

“One,” he started counting down.

My lips twitched when I knew that I couldn’t avoid it anymore, so I slowly made my way towards him.

“Are you crippled too? Don’t you know how to walk anymore? Would you know how to roll your way here, then?”

Hearing that, I didn’t dare to take my time anymore. After taking two huge strides, I was finally in front of him.

Even so, I did leave some distance between us so that I could run away from him if I needed to.

Dominic then started to scrutinize me up and down.

I was starting to feel uncomfortable under his gaze, so I found the courage to say, “Mr. Hartnell, I was wrong, alright? Come on, hurry up and say what you want.”

All I did was scold him earlier. He should have gotten straight to the point. Why did he have to torture me like that?

At that moment, I stopped worrying. After all, I was already in deep sh*t, so there was no point fretting on what was about to come.

“Tell me what you did wrong, and I’ll let it go if I’m satisfied with the answer. Otherwise, both of us will have a long talk about it.”

I wanted so much to kick him when I saw the look that said—”I’m kind enough to spare you”—on his face.

You drama king! I’ve already admitted that I was wrong. What else do you want me to say?

“Two!” My heart thumped when he started counting down again.

Alright. Whatever you say, boss.

To make sure that I could satisfy him sooner, I started to talk so that I could clear my name. It didn’t matter if it was true or false; words poured out of my mouth the moment I thought of them.

I was already starting to feel thirsty from all the talking, but he still remained indifferent. He didn’t tell me to stop, nor did he say that he was satisfied. All he did was stare at me with an odd smile on his face.
