Chapter 44: Drawing a Line Between Them

"Why are you here?" Daniel asked, "I am not working today. So, whatever it is, keep it till I am ready." His cold eyes pierced through Selene's, attempting to see into her soul.

"I am hoping to speak to you privately," she could not help but say. She would rather die than say why she had come while his mother was there. Not too long ago, she had fallen into the old woman's trap and said she was not dating Daniel. If she opened her mouth this moment to ask him out, she would be slapping herself in the face.

Daniel did not have the energy for her nonsense, but he wanted to get rid of her, so he gestured towards the living room they had just left, and they both moved there.
