Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 47 He Is Fine

I jumped out of bed abruptly. My tone of voice was a little provocative as I had gotten shocked for no reason. “Mr. Hartnell, why are you not sleeping yet at this late hour? Why are you doing here? You scared the hell out of me,” I uttered.

Well… Nicholas told me a joke just now. That’s why I couldn’t help but laugh.

Knowing that I was in the wrong, I cleared my throat and said, “I’ll be more mindful next time.”

“Is there even going to be a next time? Who are you talking to at this hour? You look so happy.” Dominic’s eyes darkened as he looked at me.

Subconsciously, I hid my phone behind me and answered, “Nobody. I was just laughing at some reality shows.”

The man evidently didn’t believe me as he proceeded to ask me for my phone.

I refused his request without hesitation. “It’s my phone. Why should I give it to you? I have the rights to my own privacy.”

His voice grew colder as he barked out, “Hand it over to me!”

“I’m not giving it to you. Come and get it yourself if you want it so badly!” I purposely stood up from the bed and raised my hand in the air while saying that.

I stuck out my tongue provocatively. Serves him right for threatening me all the time. I’m just going to make fun of him a little. Hmph! He can’t even walk. Let’s see what’s he going to do!

“I’ll give you one last chance. Give it to me,” he said every single word through gritted teeth.

“Dominic, let’s be reasonable. This is my phone. Why do I have to give it to you? Who I chat with is none of your business.”

Is he out of his mind? Usually, he only goes crazy once in a while. I have never seen him act like this before.

Anyway, I would never give my phone to him.

Despite having my mind made up, Dominic’s gaze was too invasive. I couldn’t stand it. Therefore, I turned my head and looked out of the window.

Suddenly, I saw an extremely terrifying scene through the reflection on the window.

Dominic stood up! More surprisingly, he even started walking towards me.
