Chapter 42 The Twitter Account That Was No Longer Updated

I inhaled a deep breath and tried to suppress my urge to whack him with all my might.

“Don’t let your mind wander. We’ve already made it clear; I’m only your caregiver and nothing else.”

I had to make things clear as it was an important matter. I did not want to appear as though I had hoped for something to happen between us other than being friends.

But then again, Dominic and I were never really friends either. The only thing I hoped for was for him to stop pranking me.

Hearing my reply, he smiled indifferently and stated, “You’re the one who’s looking for me now, but you look so nervous. Are you playing hard to get?”

That was when I realized the both of us were not on the same page. Be it the words said or the meaning conveyed, he did not seem to make any sense to me.

But in hopes that I would have peace while working on my drafts for the next two days, I decided to let it slide and not offend him.

“I came because I have something to tell you. I have a draft submission in two days, so I hope no one will disturb me while I’m drawing. But of course, I’ll still fulfill my responsibilities as your caregiver.”

At that, Dominic raised his brows and sized me up, looking full of curiosity. “Is it that piece of work you were working on earlier? With that kind of drawing, I advise you to give up now. No one will accept even if you submitted it. It’ll be better for you to spend those time serving me instead. Don’t you agree?”

I-I… Like hell, I’ll agree! Liliana, you must endure it! But it’s so tough to do that!

“Dominic Hartnell, that’s enough. Can’t you say something nice to accumulate some good karma?”

Asshole! Why is he so sure it won’t be a good artwork when I’m still nowhere done with it? It’s not for him anyway, so is there a need for him to spout such nonsense and purposely emphasize my duty to serve him well?

“I’ll accumulate bad karma if I tell lies. Look at my state; all I want now is to live longer.”

Even though I was furious, I felt bad when my gaze unconsciously shifted to look at his legs.
