Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 221

“Really?” I asked as I narrowed my eyes at him.

“Sure…” he replied as he smiled back at me with a mischievous spark in his light blue eyes.

He’s crazy and so reckless. I knew that but still this is something else altogether…

“I don’t even know what to say or what to do. This is crazy, Hayden,” I mumbled softly before sighing loudly.

I have never felt so overwhelmed like this before.

“Some of my friends and other business partners asked about your work too, and of course, I utilized my perfect sales skill to pitch your talent to them. Guess my hard work paid off. These people are loaded so you can rip them off with whatever price that you want,” Hayden said with a proud laugh.

“Why did you do that?” I asked before rubbing my temples.

This is all too much. He could have checked with me first on whether I was ready for this.

“To help you find clients for your work. Why else?” Hayden said with a shrug.

It was apparent that he couldn’t understand why I was so distressed about all this.

“There’re so many requests for commissions now that I don’t know how to start…” I admitted shamefully.

Unfortunately, none of the courses in my university has ever taught what to do when you got more requests that you can handle. I had no idea what I should do first.

“Don’t panic. Why don’t you read through some of the requests first?” Hayden suggested.

“I already read through some of them. They’re all asking for portraits because that was what you showed them and put on that magazine cover,” I said followed by a depressed sigh.

“Not just the magazine cover. The article is also posted online on websites and social media,” Hayden said with a proud smile.

I knew that he was doing his best to help but this is all too sudden for me to handle. Getting exposure for your artwork is what most artists dream of but I still didn’t feel ready to handle this much stress and workload. Suddenly, it felt like everyone had high expectations of me and I wasn’t sure if I could meet their expectations.

Most of all, if I failed at this, Hayden would probably be very disappointed in me.

“You do realize that if they’re requesting for portraits, I may have to meet some of the clients in person if they request for a live portrait session, right?” I asked Hayden.
