Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 52

 

Chapter 52 Do You Believe Me

James rubbed at the area where I had pinched him and shook his head feebly.

I shot daggers at him again. When I turned back, I heard him muttering, “Why are you so fierce at me. He’s just right there, so I dare not do anything…”

Upon hearing that, I stopped moving, turned around, and raised my hand.

“Ahem… I have a meeting soon. So I better leave. I will leave the both of you to yourselves.” As soon as James finished, he fled the room in a hurry.

After watching him leave the room, I looked towards Dominic again. “What do you want me to agree to? Say it quick. I’m in a hurry.”

 

I don’t want to stay here anymore. I’ll go back and clean up before I rest early. If nothing happens tomorrow, then I’ll go home.

“Come home with me. I’ll tell you once I think of it,” he stated, reaching out his hands as if to grab me.

 

I hurriedly put my arms behind me and said, “I will not go back with you. Before this, you wanted me to take care of you. Now you are standing here, with fine limbs. You don’t need me anymore.”

He squinted his eyes. I was afraid he would disagree, so I added, “Call me after you think about it. I won’t back down.”

“You blacklisted me.”

He even found out about this… To avoid going back with him, I took out my phone and unblocked his number in front of him.

“Okay? Now you can call me,” I told him softly.

To be honest, I didn’t know why I had complied with him. If he actually did force me to go home with him, I could call the police or even apply for a restraining order as they did on television.

There were many solutions I could turn to. However, I compromised.

Dominic stared at me quietly; I didn’t know what he was thinking.

Just when I thought he wouldn’t accept my proposal, he spoke, “Address.”
