Chapter 72 - Stop frowning, youll get wrinkles (2/2)
Her eyes shot up in shock as she gazed at him.
What was he trying to do?
Nicklaus gazed at her for a few seconds, then he spoke;
''Let's have breakfast first. ''
He said, leading her towards the dining table.
The table was already set for two and when they approached, Nicklaus pulled out a seat for her to sit down.
Tiana wondered why he was still acting cute when there was no-one around, but still she sat down.
Nicklaus opened the dishes and the aroma of the oatmeal wafted into her nostrils. Nicklaus took a plate and put some of the oatmeal into it and placed it in front of her.
''Eat. ''
He said; pouring orange juice from the jug into a glass cup and placing it by her side.
Tiana's brows puckered;
Why was he acting nice? Was there a camera here or something?
She raised her spoon half-heartedly and dug into the food.
Nicklaus watched her for a moment; then he raised his hand to her forehead and rubbed on it with thumb.
''I told you to stop frowning, you'll get wrinkles. ''
Tiana raised her eyes at him, startled.
Was it because he saw her almost n.a.k.e.d today? Was he getting lewd thoughts now?
His eyes were calm and loving as they gazed at her;
No, this does not look good.
She coughed and quickly gulped down a mouthful of her drink.
''What was she going to do if he tried to touch her? He was already like this on the second day of their stay; she still had over 12 days together with him!! ''
She was still lost in thought, when suddenly she felt her seat shift and she was face to face with him;
Her brows creased as she wondered what he was up-to.
Nicklaus pulled her plate towards him and took a spoonful of oats and pointed it towards her mouth.
''Eat. ''
Tiana's eyes widened so much that she nearly fainted from shock.
Was… was he trying to feed her now?
She couldn't understand what was happening? There was no-one there. Why was he pretending to be a loving boyfriend?
Tiana gulped as she forced a chuckle;
''Young Master, there's no-one here, I can eat by myself. ''
She said as she tried taking the spoon from him, but he moved his hand away.
''I don't want you to call me that anymore. ''
Nicklaus said and placed the spoon back on the plate. Tiana's lips fell in shock.
What did he want her to call him? Oh, boss. Yeah, she was an employee now; she should probably call him boss.
''I'm sorry; I forgot I was an employee now, I should probably call you boss… ''
''No, ''
Nicklaus replied, cutting her off. His eyes carried a fresh glint, one that Tiana had not seen before.
She gulped;
''What… what then do you want me to call you? ''
There was a second of silence between them, before Nicklaus replied.
''I want you to call me my name from now on ''
